__TOC__ 

==Physical Description==

Marius stands at an imposing 6'8", and his stern gaze leaves no room for compromise. He keeps his long brown hair tied up in a bun behind his head. He has a scar dangerously close to his left eye, but good luck asking him about it.

==First Impression==

Don't let this quiet Elezen fool you -- he will cheerfully manipulate you into giving him the clothes off your back. He is a man of very little words, but those he speaks carry a great deal of volume.

==Background==

The former captain of the Raging Wolves, Marius' life changed when a number of his crew mutinied, leaving him to the gallows in a remote Limsan gaol. By some stroke of luck -- or was it divine intervention? -- he managed to escape with his only living crew member, Soreas Lennart. They parted ways in Aleport, and a number of years would pass before the two would be reunited.

Now, Marius works as a trader in Radz-at-Han, brokering deals both above board and not. He enjoys his retirement from piracy, though he stays on his guard at all times, knowing that he's still wanted by the Maelstrom for the crimes he committed aboard the ''Ocean's Whore''.

==Reunion and Untempering==

While negotiating with another merchant in the markets of Radz-at-Han, Marius was approached by Soreas, who happened to come across him by pure chance while visiting the city. Though he barely reacted outwardly, he was shocked to find his former navigator to be hale and whole. Even more surprising was the fact that he was now ''married'', something Soreas swore he'd never do, and was also accompanied by a lalafell he called his 'best mate'. 

After visiting the trio at Soreas' house, an unfortunate truth came to light; the divine intervention that had freed him and Soreas from death row had been the work of a primal. Worse, he was still tempered from the act -- from the previous incarnation of Overmind, to be specific -- which was at odds with the primal's current summoning. 

Through considerable effort and with the use of Soreas' aether reserves, Overmind managed to undo the former captain's tempering; this released Marius from the primal's influence, though at the cost of the latter having to reveal his true nature to him.
