Bio

Status: Alive Gender: Male Age: 38 (born July 7, 3271) Allegiance: Empire Home System: Forculus Occupation: Executive Security Relations: Markus Trevino (Brother), Donovan Flake (Grandfather), Maurice Ricardo (Mother), Pikka Witz (Brother), Rodolfo Leonardo (Cousin), Pierluigi Zarro (Cousin), Reginaldo Moroni (Cousin), Ildebrando Calla (Cousin), Cristiano Verderosa (Cousin), Igino De Bello (Half-Brother), Misaele Sanna (Step-Brother), Landolfo Iannarelli (Adopted Brother), Nilde Trombetta (Step-Sister), Dalida Vigilante (Sister), Manuela Iannello (Cousin, Step-Sister), Enimia Pisoni (Niece), more...

Marcus grew up on the poverty-stricken Irrational Exuberance in Forculus with one family that ran the water treatment plant and another family that managed a small and honest business. By a young age Marcus mastered the art of scamming tourists and befriending wealthy businessmen with his hopelessly ignorant personality to the point that anyone could be fooled into investing into him as a mentor. His claim to being the son of ten different fathers ensured that he had enough gift money for several different educations in business.

He finally opened his own business as a hearse for hire shuttling deceased bodies from the space station to the frozen water world of Domas. His hearse service was successful enough to buy him a Python vessel due to the high quantity of mysterious deaths and shady dealers paying a high price to make a body disappear. As a side project Marcus worked with a couple pirate gangs to develop the framework that would later develop into the Quan-Tech Security Network.

When Forculus System Security promoted the ambitious Jesse Ladd to Head of Security, Marcus escaped certain death by hiding in the inner workings of the station's water purifier while security squads massacred thousands of families deemed connected to the local mafia factions, particularly The Brothers of Forculus who had until then been in command of the station and services. His mother Maurice Ricardo was killed and her thrift shop decimated by Ladd's forces.

Originally driven by revenge, Marcus and his brothers, sisters, and cousins cyber-stocked Jesse Ladd in Cubeo originally orchestrating the chain of events that brought Ladd's actions into the light. He has since been appointed by Cubeo's Administration of the Overseer to mislead ill-intended foreign investors using a multitude of absurd business strategies and front organizations and layer the most confusing business schemes in the Empire.

Outside of Cubeo where he now resides, Marcus and his siblings founded Forculus Chronometry which is a small yet ludicrously successful jewelry corporation in Forculus. It manufactures luxurious jewelry an clocks and has a select few store locations in busy space stations. It's most successful products are large floor clocks that look similar to old grandfather clocks that do not rely on gravity to operate. Marcus is famous for his various models of the Wrist Clock which is a high quality watch that is manipulated into being incredibly rare making it more likely for one to buy a space vessel. He also made media waves with his even more rare Ankle Clock which is a wrist clock rebranded to be worn around the ankle.

Personality-wise Marcus is viewed as a hopeless idiot. He is a chatterbox who often references ridiculous events from his past. One of his memories involved his sister Nilde where he recalls when she was snatched from the diner table by a cockroach before dragging her into the walls. He and his brothers managed to save her but she suffered from a bite mark that scared her back and stomach.

Marcus also has a habit of turning any situation into an unlikely series of events. Either he is a mad genius or he picked up some strangely effective physiological tricks from his scamming days in Irrational Exuberance. He can be very silly but also very stern and is always reliable when the situation calls for him. He is a great ally to have.

Despite being financially successful, he and his siblings prefer to live the old life. He shares a studio apartment with all 25 of his immediate family members and they often find interesting meals such as parrots or bugs. His youngest siblings enjoy crickets as it was a common source of food on Irrational Exuberance.
