Marcus

Marcus has been a somewhat major antagonist of Winter Risen Part 1, but near the end of Winter Risen Part 1 it seems unlikely now that he will stay a villain like before.
=== Appearance/Personality: ===
Marcus is a tall but very skinny person, mostly due to the fact that he doesn't get much food. While his eyes are usually hidden behind his tinted sunglasses, he has dull blue eyes that almost seem grey. Along with his sunglasses he also has a cane with him usually associated with blind people. His hair is a light brown color that's very shaggy and sticks up at random angles. While Marcus doesn't technically need it due to his powers, he has to keep up the act that he's blind due to the mutant hate. For clothes he usually wears an old pair of jeans and a t-shirt of a random solid color, along with a leather jacket that's to big for him so the sleeves go over his hands.
Personality:
Marcus is a selfish and stubborn person. He hates the mutant hate, so he also often openly displays his abilities with no mask. At his core however, these traits of selfishness and stubbornness have just evolved from his will to survive. He only does anything because it will help him survive. This is shown even down to his early actions of joining the Hellfire club in the first place. If he's in a comfortable position where he can live well, then other traits can begin to show themselves, like loyalty, or gratitude, or even a sense of comradery with him. If the sense of security he has is taken away though, then he will begin to downgrade back to his selfish and stubborn self in an effort to survive.
=== Abilities: ===
Esper: Marcus' overall set of abilities is in general called esper, which just means in general he has psychic abilities like telekinesis and telepathy.
6th sense: Marcus possesses a 6th sense from his abilities that give him a 360 degree range of sight that goes out to 60 meters. This sight can see through walls, though has a hard time seeing through anything thicker than a foot, and can't see through lead at all. This sight is colorless, but is so precise it can see down to the atomic scale.
Telekinesis: Marcus can move things with his mind. At his simplest he has moved large chunks of concrete and pieces of Xavier's mansion with ease, but it gets impressive for Marcus when you see not how big of a thing he can move, but how small of a thing he can move. Marcus can move things on the atomic scale if he has physical contact with the thing he's trying to effect. For inorganic things this can mean cutting clean through a door in the Xavier mansion he was being kept in, or even creating spike through the ground, or creating points of great air pressure and releasing the pressure creating an explosion. For organic things he can essentially tear apart cells causing painful damage to whatever he is in contact with.
Telepathy: Marcus has your standard telepathy powers, like mind reading and control, though this line of powers is less developed than his telekinesis. It's still fairly strong, being able to take control of mentally weakened people like Miguel and Lee. He has performed a feat where he erased recent memories of a fight from Joseph, though he had to make direct contact for this, and has caused other wizards to lose focus on their spells with telepathy for short times.
Touch empowerment: If Marcus can make physical contact with something, his effect over it with is powers gets much better. For example he can only use his telekinesis to affect down to the atomic scale if he's touching something, and can turn his weaker telepathy, into a force to be reckoned with if he can make physical contact.
=== Biography: ===
He was born blind which was difficult to grow up with and discovered his abilities at puberty like most mutants do. He learned he had abilities by stopping a car that he didn't see (because he's blind) when he wandered into the street. With these newfound powers his parents got scared of him and disowned him. They sent him to an orphanage where he was treated badly being forced to do work that was very difficult for a blind person. Over this time he developed his powers in secret so he could try to escape and eventually did. Police searched for the missing kid for a while but eventually gave up thinking Marcus died or was kidnapped. Through the years he turned to crime to get money to survive.
Marcus would later be offered to join the Hellfire Club after he was noticed by Emma Frost. He accepted, and soon later was captured by Joseph, and brought to the Xavier mansion where he would be interrogated. Refusing to say anything, Penemue was called to do a very odd type of torture. This didn't work for him, eventually awakening a power up in his telekinesis, allowing him to effectively cut through the house, and blowing part of it up to escape.
Eventually he would be tasked with a job. He was to try to join the Brotherhood. Finding the contact he was supposed to find, he was brought to a hotel being used as a base. There he was tasked with controlling Miguel if he wanted to join the Brotherhood fully. At first with his telepathy skills it was impossible, but through development he managed to control Miguel. Due to me not being good at remembering things, I don't remember much of what happened immediately after.
Marcus was later tasked with finally stealing Magneto's helmet. Successfully doing so, he was found out by Magneto, but before he could do anything to Marcus, Emma began her plan. She messed with the minds of mutants other than Hellfire Club members, and blocked off their powers. Marcus escaped as this happened, and brought the Helmet to Emma.
From here Marcus and most of my ocs did very little and were mostly side characters, unless I'm forgetting something.
Near the end Marcus joined the fight with Emma, killing Miguel's father, and fought against Tyler, effectively ending in a draw due to the mutual tiredness of both fighters. After being fixed up by doc, doc told Marcus he's leaving. Marcus wasn't sure why and rejoined Emma. Emma began looking like she would lose, so Marcus began questioning his side, and what he should do. He knew he couldn't stay, but also needed to do something because of the guilt he felt, so he took Miguel and ran.
