Overview
Mark Donaghy is a Seattle DA, who resides and works in Renton. Despite a recent scandal involving an item not in his possession being put up for auction (See Night Shopping) he retains a reputation for honesty and incorruptibility. His wife perished several years ago after undergoing SURGE trigged by a mana-storm, and he has since re-married. He has three grown children, the eldest of whom, Korran, is a Knight Errant citizen and patrolman. Mark is widely considered a decent and fair man, and one who follows the law to the letter, even when it places him at a severe legal disadvantage. An idealist, he is highly regarded by some and considered a fool by others.
He is the current spokesmen for the fledgling "Light the Shadows" movement.
