Marcus first realized he was special when his employer literally backstabbed him. Marcus woke up buried alive; after digging himself out he killed his employer, his family and the guards. Marcus passed roughly 800 years as an assssain for hire and amassed a considerable amount of money. He managed though sheer luck to avoid other immortals during that time but then he did encounter one and the encounter scared him into hiding in Scotland, Ireland, Wales and Britain for the next 200 years. That ended when he met an ancient immortal who taught all about the immortals and how to take a head and what happens. Marcus spent time in the crusades within the various European armies. He then went with Marco Polo to the East. Curious about this new world he stayed until 1900 in the various nations. He spent time in a number of temples, as an aprentis to a weapon smith and just wandering around and learning about this culture. He also had a chance encounter with Jing Wong and that left him with a lot of respect for the man's fighting abilities. At around 1900, he moved to America and has been there for the last 100 years wandering around. He fought in WW2 but not WW1. He uses at least a dozen names his current name is Korthal. An easy and almost assuredly lethal way to get his attention is to call him Marcus.
