## Marcus Gibson

### Occupation

Performer and Entertainer (Front)Serial killer (Actual)

## Appearance

Marcus appears as a very formally-dressed and tall, muscular man. He is notably attractive, he has fine facial hair and brown skin with slight freckles. He has short dark brown hair that he styles upwards. He sports a white tuxedo suit with gloves tailored to fit his missing right pinkie finger. After his infirmary visit, he wears a white eye-patch over his left eye.

## Personality

Sporting an Irish accent, Marcus is a very charismatic young man. Having grown up in a strict household, his mannerisms and personality both on and off stage are that of a gentlemen. Despite this outward appearance, he hides a psychopathic tendency and flawed sense of joy. Hiding behind his charismatic performing personality, lies a serial killer, kidnapping and torturing fans and critics alike, and murdering on stage for all to see, hiding his actions as an act.

## Backstory

Marcus Gibson was born and raised in Northern Ireland. When he was young, his parents encouraged him to explore different interests, eventually coming to magic, like all young boys. He soon found out he had a serious skill for it, delving deeper into it, learning card tricks and learning more about magic.

One night, during a drunken performance in a small bar, he asked for one of the audience members to come on stage and be an assistant for a few tricks. During one of these tricks, a little mishap resulted in that person dying. Due to the drunken state of all the audiences members, they all thought it was part of the act and gave him a mountainous applause

This, was the beginning of his true career. The entertainer turned serial killer moved Eastern Europe to continue his newly renovated career, going to a bar late and night, and selecting his victim, drugging them, and using them in his next show, torturing and killing them on stage, making it part of the act. Eventually, people started to catch on, so he moved to the United States and adopted the name Dolus Erebus, hiding behind his new stage name, picking his victims at random.

Eventually, after a massive show, he goes up to his apartment and enjoys a drink of whiskey, but soon finds out that it quite possibly could be the last glass he may ever have.

Waking up in a strange place, he sees other people around him, all asleep. confused, he stands up and begins to walk around, making his way out of the main lobby and into a secluded area of the Museum, quickly discovering that they are being monitored, and also where the camera blind spots are, staying out of sight while making his way around the place out of sight.

## In-game

During the course of his time in the game, he had done a few things. He had been sneaking around the Museum, without the knowledge of the other Players, or even the Game Master themself. Keeping out of sight, he kept moving, but slipped up a few times, leaving doors open and such. Eventually, when the rest of the players made their way to the East Ventricle, they discovered an altered painting of Clay, a portrait with the added features of a monocle and mustache. Marcus soon pops out from the area, announcing his handy work, and introducing himself as Dolus Erebus, his stage name. After being introduced to the rest of the players by Clay, he leaves to his private room, being drugged and brought to the infirmary as punishment for altering one of the paintings. The next morning, he is released from the infirmary, his left eye having been cut out, now covered with a patch.

Sadly, this is all that happens with Marcus in the Canonical game of Weighted Mortality 5, as the game was cut short.

## Trivia

* The original concept of Marcus was from an RP written by me (Irithiel) and a friend. The RP, White Sector, was a realm of joint worlds; Dolus Erebus was a god in one of these realms.
* Marcus was written and designed at the same time as Ella Graves, having been planned to be introduced later in the game after she had died
