His sparse, buzzcut hair is a dark brown and his eyes are the same shade of brown. [b]Sexual Preferences:[/b] Straight [b]Perks:[/b] Ninja, Thief, Gun Nut.

Mostly silent, he speaks when spoken to or if needed, but rarely voices his opinion on things unless he deems it necessary. He is also quite altruistic, often doing things to help others without expecting a reward in return. He thinks a lot and likes to strategise, but often he doesn't tell anyone about his plans in favour of the surprise approach.

He grew up as a normal boy with a healthy life and healthy interests; drawing, adventuring, fiddling with things, so on and so forth. When he grew into his teens the more adept folk around town taught him more about the wasteland and life in it. He was taught how to fire a gun, how to identify if water sources were safe to drink, how to use a geiger counter, and so on. When he finally came of age and became an adult, he decided to leave. He packed what little he had and left town to wander the wasteland. Granted, this was long before the Wanderer stopped by his home town and activated the nuke sitting in the middle of it, destroying the entire town instantly. Through his wanderings he discovered many things about the world he lived in, and honed his skills and talents in sneaking around, making himself invisible, killing silently and generally being a massive pain in the neck for anyone looking for him. Eventually, in Rivet City, a Brotherhood soldier found him "displaying" his talents (read: turning a mugger into kebab with his newly found machetes) and took him into the fold. They trained him, clothed him and fed him, though he expressed a big dislike for their heavy, unwieldly power armour, choosing instead to remain dressed as he was but armed with better, sharper, maintainable gear. For a good long while he rolled with the Brotherhood, mostly performing solo guerilla attacks against Enclave supply trains or troop transports to mess with their morale while the BoS focused on bigger targets. This was just about when the Wanderer teamed up with President Eden. The good life was never to last with Marcus though, as during a raid one day on a supply convoy he was taken by surprise at how well the Enclave troops were armed. Outnumbered, outgunned and outclassed, Marc fought until his last, and upon his only escape attempt, he was blindsided by an explosion and thrown into a ditch, presumed dead. The Enclave left him and he laid there, unconscious, for days, before waking up in a daze and slowly staggering along the road until a passing merchant convoy stumbled upon him and took him in. These merchants thought very little of this mysterious man that had turned up in the road, so they dropped him off at the next town they visited and left him there, where he received medical attention and a place to stay. Of course, Marcus doesn't remember any of this at all, for when the explosion knocked him into the ditch, he hit his head on a stone, thereby rendering him a [b]complete amnesiac[/b]. The only thing he remembers is his name. His skills come to him almost unconsciously, though he still struggles to recall how and when he learned how to do many of the things he does. [b]Other Notes/ETC:[/b][list] [*]Marcus is a complete amnesiac struggling to regain his lost memories. Any characters asking him about his origins or his past will be met with a blank stare or a dull "I don't remember." [/list]
