Marquis is a supervillian.

Personality

Marquis is very cultured and polite even in the middle of a fight or asking for help as he slowly bleeds to death. He never killed women or children and Jack Slash mentions that he did everything possible to help people during the last time the Nine were in Brockton Bay. He mentions casually that he preferred, rather than instilling fear in his subordinates through brute force, to simply make those that failed him disappear, leaving the survivors to remember what happened.

Marquis claimed to "have a lot of respect for people who keep to a particular code, whatever that code might be, and very little for traitors and wafflers."<ref name="22.y">Interlude 22.y</ref>

Appearance

[Coming Soon]

Abilities and Powers

Marquis' powers involve the manipulation of bone - his own and, if it became exposed, that of his enemies. Every time he punches skewers or blades of bone through his flesh, he feels the appropriate level of unspeakable agony, but he trained himself not to show even the slightest sign of it.

He was fully capable of taking on a squadron of Empire Eighty-Eight members and walking away. He was also able to take on most of New Wave at the same time, and only lost because he was protecting his daughter.

History

Background

Marquis was an independent villain, who fought Empire Eighty-Eight and the Slaughterhouse Nine as well as several teams of heroes. Carol Dallon had a special hatred for him, because he reminded her of the kidnapper who treated her well but was still willing to kill her.

At some point, he had a daughter to an unknown mother. He raised her for several years, and his shard budded, giving her the capacity to trigger. He was eventually captured because he was unwilling to abandon her to the authorities, leading them to the cupboard where she was hiding. He would later acknowledge he could have left Brockton Bay with his daughter, but he was to enraptured by his role as a super-villein there. Amy would be adopted by Carol Dallon, and she did not remember him.

Life in Prison

He would eventually become the leader of a cell block at the birdcage. He would later welcome his daughter there.

Golden Morning

He was finally let out of prison for the battles of Golden Morning.
