## History

Marcus was born to the estranged daughter of Gabriel Knight. His mother  during his early years abandoned him, leaving him in the care of his grandfather who was at best -- disinterested in his grand son -- as a result Marcus was always shipped off. He spent most of his childhood in boarding schools and his teenage years in Military School. When he turned of legal age -- his grandfather has him join their private military operations and that's where spent most of his early twenties.

He ended up qualifying for STG and spent much of his time on classified assignments where he further increased his resume and fame. At 30, he joined KIS and proved to be a very capable operative. Not hesitant in his orders and having a near perfect rating for success.

Near the end of 2092 Marcus and the entirety of the KIS division was sent on assignment to deal with a Crimson Dawn operation that threatened and important asset that needed to be handled quietly.

Upon arrival, KIS soon realized that they were in a trap and were forced to fight through a CRIMSON Dawn commando squad. Right when they thought they were free, another trap was triggered and a series of explosions occured. Everyone in KIS was killed with the exception of Markus who lost the entirety of his right arm. Wounded and near death -- STG recovered him.

During his recovery, it was discovered that Henry Capitali, the Director of Public Security and Safety who sent them on assignment was in reality the leader of Crimson Dawn and had fled his office to disappear in the under city.

After recovery,  Marcus was promoted to fill the directors position. His record was exemplary and he was the most qualified. He was tasked with rebuilding KIS which he hesitates on but knows must be done regardless.
