Marik

Marik Ishtar (マリク・イシュタール, Mariku Ishutāru lit. "Malick Ishtar") is the leader and founder of the Rare Hunters, younger brother of Ishizu Ishtar and heir to the Tomb Keepers. Marik was the main antagonist of the Battle City arc until the defeat of Odion when Marik's alter ego, Yami Marik, takes over his body and replaces him as the main antagonist.
His alter ego, Yami Marik, known as Dark Marik in the manga and Japanese versions is Marik Ishtar's second personality created by his own inner hatred and pain. He serves as the main antagonist of the Battle City Finals arc after Odion falls into a coma, triggering his possession of Marik's body.
Unlike Yami Yugi and Yami Bakura, Yami Marik did not originate as an entity sealed within a Millennium Item but instead was spawned from the trauma Marik endured after being horrifically mutilated by his own father and sentenced to guard the pharaoh's tomb for the rest of his life.
