Your ★ Beauty,

Appearance,

[/color] Getting his hair right has never been an issue for Marcus considering that he doesn’t have much. For him it a simple matter of getting out of bed and brushing it a bit. He typically gets his haircut every third Sunday so it doesn’t grow any higher than a fade. His eyes are a deep brown that are lined with thin dark lashes. His nose is a little thinner than most but beyond that is average. Marcus also has full lips and a strong jaw. Marcus is rather tall and towers over most humans at a height of 6’2. He has a nice chiseled body thanks to his activities in the sports department. Both his chest and arms are extremely well defined and one can often see his muscles without him doing much. He tries to workout on a daily basis and because of this has a nice six pack that he is proud of, although he rarely shows it to people. He has several tattoos one including the sign of the lupine brotherhood on his wrist. Marcus also has kanji on his lower back, a cross above his heart, and the quote “what goes around comes around” on his right shoulder. Marcus tends to wear whatever he finds to be comfortable. He is rarely seen in dressy attire unless the occasion calls for it and can typically be found wearing a t-shirt and jeans. [/ul]

OVERALL PERSONALITY

[/color] Marcus is typically a very happy individual who actually has a really good sense of humor. He can make people laugh without a whole lot of effort. Most people just like him because he’s got a good personality. He doesn’t really try to hurt anyone’s feeling and will occasionally say white lies just to make one feel better although he still does hurt people’s feelings and often at that for you see Marcus is a smart-ass. When he was a kid he was known to yell at the weather reporter on television that she was an idiot and no, it was not going to rain tomorrow. He does that with people in his own life, too. If he knows something he has a tendency to make other people feel stupid because he doesn’t hold back what he knows. He doesn’t do it on purpose, really, it’s just something that he used to defend himself as a kid and it’s a habit that’s hard to break. Despite being a smart-ass Marcus is also very compassionate. He cares deeply about other people and hates when they’re upset. He knows how to be a good friend, so he’s really dependable. People always know that he’s available if they ever need a shoulder to cry on. He’s got a big heart, filled with lots of stuff. Some of its garbage that other people put there, but most of it is saved up especially for when other people need it. Having such a big heart can have its downside though, because just as he’s capable of loving big, he’s also capable of hurting big. Sometimes he lets him emotions get the best of him which often can lead to fights. Marcus is also known to be a gentleman at a time. He is the type of guy that can often be seen opening the door for women. He is extremely flirtatious and if he sees a girl he finds attractive he will engage in conversation without a moment’s hesitation. He is rarely in a relationship because of a mixture of his flirtatious behavior and that he gets bored easy. [/ul]

Background ★ Info,

History,

[/color] Marcus was born into the wealthy Derwood family and along with it a life of luxury. The youngest child in a family of six, he was often the target of bullying and beatings by his elder siblings. Having two older brothers and a tomboyish elder sister it didn’t take long for Marcus to learn how to defend himself. His siblings would find reasons to be cruel with him for any reason whether it be because he snitched on them for something to merely him walking into a room. Matters were made even worse when it was discovered that Marcus was the only child to be truly similar to both his parents.

Like his mother and father, Marcus is a panthera tigris lycanthrope. Already gaining the most attention as the baby in the family, Marcus gained even more because of his transformation. Unlike his parents his tiger form had white fur and that gained him even more attention. Soon it was him versus his siblings and he was rarely included in what they saw as there family. Marcus didn’t really try to change their mind however because he saw himself as different as well.

The first decade and a half of Marcus’s life was rather simplistic. He would go to school then come home and endure hours upon hours of learning how to control his abilities. When he wasn’t doing either of those he would be playing whatever sport his parents would allow. However his fifteenth birthday changed the course of his life forever. If one were to ask Marcus what happened that night he would say he doesn’t remember but truthfully he remembers it in vivid detail.

It was like any other Derwood birthday celebration with lots of guests and presents all under the roof of the Derwood Mansion. The celebration was proceeding according to plan and it had come time for the cake to be cut. Marcus was in the middle of doing the task when screams began to erupt from the crowd. Glancing around in puzzlement he saw a sight that will forever be etched into his mind, a large tiger holding a limp human body in its massive jaws. The crowd panicked so quickly that he wasn’t able to see the tiger very well but he was fairly confident that in actuality it was a lycanthrope.

To this date he doesn’t know why he did but Marcus transformed into his lycanthrope form after seeing the tiger. The next several moments were a blur all he really remembers is the sound of gunshots and pain exploding through his left shoulder. It wasn’t long after that the fifteen year old lycanthrope passed out.

When Marcus came to he was alone inside of a burning mansion. Instincts taking over he got out of the house swiftly to be greeted outside by firefighters. In the following hours several bodies were discovered all of which were among the Derwood family. The rest of the dreadful night concluded with Marcus being taken to the hospital and having to deal with curious doctors. It didn’t take long for him to get fed up with the questions about his healing. The sun hadn’t even risen the next morning when he escaped from the hospital and went out into city alone.
★Circumstances of Transformation/Discovery: In history I think
★Circumstances of Faction Initiation: Out from under the guidance and protection of his parents it wasn’t long before Marcus discovered the multiple factions in Saint Calais. In need of help controlling his powers it wasn’t long before Marcus joined the Lupine Brotherhood. He has been a member ever since he was fifteen.
