[b][color=purple]Biography[/color][/b] 
Marco’s father was a young supermodel, around twenty two years in age, when he started dating this beautiful young lady model that he met. The two had a story book romance, falling in love quickly, and they looked rather handsome together. However, right as Marco’s father was getting ready to propose, the woman vanished, leaving him alone for seven months. At the end of that, a basket with a note and a baby appeared in it on his doorstep. There was nothing more in the note that a simple apology and the name of the baby.

Marco grew up doted on by his single father, but there was always a lingering sadness in the poor man. His heart had been crushed, broken by this beautiful woman, and whenever Marco would ask about his mother, he could tell that the hurt was real, so he learned quickly to not ask about his mother. 

Marco and his father always knew that he was not going to be a normal boy, as he took an interest in fashion, needle felting, and both boys and girls quickly in his life. However, besides some trouble with school work and being diagnosed with both ADHD and dyslexia as a young age, his teachers always found him a charming and sweet boy, and it seemed that Marco was always able to talk himself out of any sort of terrible trouble that he might be in.

When he was about twelve, he made friends with a rather odd boy, and they became close over the year. It was towards the end of the year that the boy revealed what he was, what Marco was and told him of Camp Half-Blood. Marco was interested, and told his father it was a fashion summer camp, and then packed up and went there. He’s been back every summer since then, for the last five years. He still wants to punch his mother in the face if he ever meets her, but other than that, he’s quite happy.

[b][color=purple]How Long Have They Been At Camp Half-Blood:[/color][/b] Marco was found by one of the school Satyrs when he was twelve, and shortly after claimed by his mother and taken to the camp. He easily fit in with his siblings, and the young man has always been charming, so he easily fit in with the others. He has been at the camp for five years, but he only attends during the summer. He’s not that powerful to attract monsters all the time.

[hr][hr][h3][b][color=purple][center][i]Additional Information[/i][/center][/color][/b][/h3]
He makes each meal for his little sugar glider by hand. He does enjoy singing, even if he’s not a child of Apollo. His first kiss was with a boy when he was 12.

[i]"Never challenge her to an underwater breathing contest, and a cute flirt."[/i]

[hr]
👋 [b][color=lavender]Bronwyn Rae Knowles[/color][/b] 👋
[i]"A bit haughty... but seems ok."[/i]
Marco does not interact with this daughter of Athena that much. She tends to seem to keep to herself sometimes, and has a bit of an attitude that makes her seem she's above everyone, however Marco has no negative feelings against the girl. They do speak French with one another, to practice the language together.
[hr]
♨️ [b][color=#EEE8AA]Ezekiel Kel[/color][/b] ♨️
[i]"Ugh... him."[/i]
Marco is aware that he does have some issues, but he's not a fan of the Son of Apollo pointing them out. Also the way he tries to copy his style? Also the way he torments others doesn't make Marco feel comfortable. He wishes he would take it easier, and honestly is waiting for the day he crosses Emily.
[hr]

[i]"She's a pretty chill girl, though never get on her bad side. Never."[/i]

[hr]
💜 [b][color=gray]Zoey Kepler[/color][/b] 💜
[i]"One of the two people that knows me."[/i]
There are two people that Marco trusts and drops face before. One is Emily. The other is Zoey. The two had an encounter around a year ago, and found that they each had some issues, and that they found that venting to one another helped. They are close friends, and keep each other's secrets. Marco also appreciates the girl's friendly attitude and skills in hand to hand fighting.

👋 [b][color=4286f4]Arthur Stanford[/color][/b] 👋
[i]"Ash's Brother, and another Child of Hades"[/i]

[i]"She appreciates my cracking sense of humor. *smirk*"[/i]
The two make for some odd friends, a daughter of Nemesis and a Son of Aphrodite, but the two bonded over a shared language as well a few other things. Marco always makes some silly jokes about her whip, but she seems to enjoy them. He enjoys spending time with her, and they might be an odd pair, but they are friends.
[hr]
👋 [b][color=c4df9b]Alana Colt[/color][/b] 👋
[i]"She seems to keep to herself. "[/i]
Marco and Alana mostly know one another in passing. Their mothers do not really get along too well, and this causes some tension between the two of them, but nothing major. They mostly just wave to one another and make some chat during lessons.
