Bio: Marcus was born like any other Cadian, but his birth is not what matters. What he did with his life is what matters. Marcus like most other Cadians joined the military as soon as he was able. He spent much of his time training becoming a expert with his las rifle. Showing his aptitude he was promoted to corporal within three years of his enlistment. It was around this time his regiment was called to the Karthago Sector of the Ultima Segmentum.
The regiment moved on the Capital Planet known as Sidon Ultra, it had become corrupt with chaos cults breaking out all over the planet. Upon landing they found groups of Arbiters besieged in multiple pockets in the port city of Anduma. Within the first ten minutes after touch down, Marcus saw his Sergeant and three other squad mates killed by a rushing mob of cultists carrying crude weapons. In the process he and his squadmates were separated from the rest of the regiment. Marcus and the rest of his squad came across a group of Arbiters. Marcus instantly befriended one by the name of Vorkun. The information they gained from the Arbiters was that one of the cult Sorcerers was nearby. Together they fought through groups of cultists before finally reaching a large building that used to be a library. The group entered only to find corrupted PDF between themselves and the sorcerer. The battle hard fought and filled with las rifle blasts. It ended with half the Arbiters dead and only two of Marcus squad members alive, Cerra Vatao and Hermin Kadar. Vorkun lay in front of Marcus dying gripping his power maul and holding it towards Marcus. The sorcerer started towards them, and Marcus took the maul and rushed the fiend. Streaks of purple energy washed over Marcus, but still he continued as the energy scarred his body. He brought the maul down into the sorcerer's face causing his eyes to pop from their sockets, teeth to fly in strings of blood and tissues, and finally chunks of skull and brain matter to splatter across the room.
Marcus, his two remaining squad members, as well as the surviving arbiters rejoined his company. They gave him his former Sgt's pistol as well as a full promotion to sergeant and new squad members. The Arbiters let Marcus keep the maul saying he was worth of such a thing. He stayed for the duration of the cleansing the taint which lasted a total of two years. At the end when he was issued a new pistol he kept the old one as well figuring two was better than one.
Now at the behest of the inquisition his company and two others were called away to aid in a mission to recover a titan on a Tau controlled planet. Though the guardsmen of these companies were told it was a investigation into a distress signal. No matter what though Marcus and his squad stand ready to do their duty to the Emperor.
