## Childhood

Marcus grew up as a noble in the land of SilverVine in Phrelle by his human father Theorik and his elven mother Alena. He and his brother Mathew grew up being taught how to treat people by his parents. They helped the commoners of SilverVine instilling that work ethic in Marcus, showing him that they were no more important/better than any other person. He enjoyed running around the castle and having his father take his brother and him hunting in the woods nearby. His mother instilled in him the notion that 'you never take more than you need'.

## Adolescence

Marcus grew into his role as a noble. He knew his brother was being groomed for the throne, but Marcus was being groomed to be the diplomat of the two of them. Marcus had a way with words that his brother did not posses yet.

## Adulthood

One winter day, Marcus found out about a group of bandits nearby that were robbing people of all their possessions, from gold to clothes.

He and a group of villagers went to track down the bandits, not finding them, but a beautiful naked lady in the snow.

Finding she was still alive, and as quickly as they could, they wrapped up the lady up, and brought her to a hunting cabin nearby, and made sure she was warm.

Marcus sent the men home to their families and waited by the woman's side until she/if she would awaken. She awoke, upset that she was indoors, asking what happened. Marcus explained the bandits, and how they found her. She nodded and looked at Marcus with piercing blue eyes and asked if she could count on Marcus' service should she ever ask. Marcus agreed, but she grew slightly aggravated, taking his rapier and handing him the handle, making him say the words, "I am in your service."

Marcus said the words, and the blade became blue like deep ice, and light blue leaves traveled up his arm from the hilt. They woman then revealed her true form, a Fey, telling Marcus she wanted to show him 'how cold the world truly was, and she wanted to be around with the warmness in his heart was replaced with the reality of the world.'

Marcus soon ran from SilverVine, not wanting his family to see the puppet he's become. He traveled Lakkia for years before ending up in Hillcrest.
