| Growing up in the Matriarchal society of Hapan can be tough for the typical male child. Marick never talks about his life before the Brotherhood. What is known only to a select few is that he is the son of a well known Consortium member Angelica Del'Abbot, and lived in a beautiful estate in the Hapes inner-cluster. He never knew who his father was, and did not have many friends. He was surrounded by sadistic, manipulative women and Marick was little more than a servant and whipping boy. | | Growing up in the Matriarchal society of Hapan can be tough for the typical male child.

| He never complained, though, and found his only solace in a retired body guard named Dexter Windet. Dexter was one of the few males in the estate that was respected for taking a blaster-bolt in the chest for Marick's mother. He would train Marick in the basic's of combat. Though no one would admit it, Marick was a natural athlete and highly dexterous both in and out of combat. During one of their spars, Dexter discovered Marick's connection with the Force. Dexter did his best to keep Marick and his secret safe, but by the time Marick had come of age, his powers were discovered. This sparked a plan within his mother and a few other Consortium members who still held scorn for the Jedi Order. They would send Marick off to train as a Dark Jedi in the [[Dark Brotherhood|Brotherhood]] to return home as their very own tool against the Jedi. | | He never complained, though, and found his only solace in a retired body guard named Dexter Windet.

| Handsome even by Hapan standards, Marick is lean and trim with a strong jaw. His perfectly symmetrical features are framed by evenly parted strands of black hair that run down to either side of his shoulders. While his boyish looks project youth, his cerulean eyes display an experience beyond his years; a tribute to being forced into leadership roles early in his career. Always confident, he carries himself with an air of pride, posture straight and hands casually clasped behind his back. A naturally gifted athlete, Marick's muscles are honed into perfect harmony, giving him an elegant flow to his every movement whether it be combative or not. While proportionately trim, he lacks any noticeable bulk and without his robes he look's rather unassuming.

| | Marick relies on his speed and agility in combat and never tries to overpower an opponent.

He is able to keep calm and collected even in the most stressful situations and highly attentive and quick to improvise. His tactics develop better in real-time than they do in planning a formal strategy.

Character History
Childhood
File:Marickestate.jpgThe Del'Abbot Estate
Growing up in the Matriarchal society of Hapan can be tough for the typical male child. Marick never talks about his life before the Brotherhood. What is known only to a select few is that he is the son of a well known Consortium member Angelica Del'Abbot, and lived in a beautiful estate in the Hapes inner-cluster. He never knew who his father was, and did not have many friends. He was surrounded by sadistic, manipulative women and Marick was little more than a servant and whipping boy, working in the kitchens and stables.
He never complained, though, and found his only solace in a retired body guard named Dexter Windet. Dexter was one of the few males in the estate that was respected for taking a blaster-bolt in the chest for Marick's mother. He would train Marick in the basic's of combat. Though no one would admit it, Marick was a natural athlete and highly dexterous both in and out of combat. During one of their spars, Dexter discovered Marick's connection with the Force. Dexter did his best to keep Marick and his secret safe, but by the time Marick had come of age, his powers were discovered. This sparked a plan within his mother and a few other Consortium members who still held scorn for the Jedi Order. They would send Marick off to train as a Dark Jedi in the Brotherhood to return home as their very own tool against the Jedi.
The Brotherhood: A New Home
At 18 years old, Marick was excited to get a chance to see the world outside of his home world and away from his mother. He had to learn quickly about the rest of the universe that he had only read about or seen in holovid's before.
Upon his arrival to the shadow academy, Marick reveled in the ability to use his "gifts" openly and to be respected for his talents. One of the higher-ups in Clan Arcona, Sashar Arconae took notice of him, and had him placed into House Qel-Droma, and into Prophecy Phyle to study under the Archpriest-Tetrarch, Arcturus Xyler. Arcturus took off to pursue his own goals, leaving Marick to fend for himself. The young Hapan was then made second in command of Prophecy Phyle while his companion Kant Lavar took over leadership. Prophecy Phyle soon became known as Oblivion Brigade, and although he no longer had a master Marick was selected to succeed Kant as Battleteam Leader of Oblivion Brigade.
Marick took the reins of Oblivion and remolded it to better suit his new teams specialties while continuing on his own path for personal growth. By the time of it's closing, Oblivion had become a feared name in the brotherhood, and is said to even rival Soulfire Strike Team.
With the re-clanning of Clan Arcona, Marick was selected by the upper summit to lead House Qel-Droma as Queastor. Amongst his new responsibilities, Marick was tasked with solidifying the history of his House, while also re-locating it to the shadow port Port Ol'val.
