Personal History
Marcus was a street urchin, scrabbling for whatever he could find to survive. At an early age, he discovered that he was good at fighting. A Roman Citizen, Harmos Decius, noticed the boy during a fight with another street urchin, and recognized the boy's potential as a fighter. He took Marcus under his wing and trained him for the arena, and educated him. After several successful tours in the gladiatorial games, Marcus met a Starfleet officer who convinced him to join Starfleet. He was accepted into Starfleet academy at the age of 25. He had an aptitude for thinking outside of the box when it came to strategy, and had an affinity for small group tactics at long range. He played old style video games in his spare time, and developed above average eye-hand coordination, especially with old style dogfighting and flight sims. He decided to apply for flight school and train as a pilot. After earning his wings, he was assigned to the USS Echidna as a pilot, serving with distinction in several engagements. He is working to become an ace. He recently transferred to the Tokyo as a means of gaining a leadership role and commanding a squadron.
