Marcus Calvani is the seventh son of the seventh son of what used to be known as the ir'Calvani noble house of Thrane. When the Theocracy gained power, the ir'Calvani family declared for the Church and turned over many of their belongings and wealth to the Silver Flame. In return, the Church of the Silver Flame rewarded the Calvani house with riches and power within the fledgling government. Marcus' auspiscious birth came with it an early obvious power: It was clear to all the Flame spoke to him. Marcus trained with the priests and seemed a very quick study, learning many things about the religion, as well as how to interact with and play the politics of the church. These two talents earned him a prestigous position with the Inquisition during the war, ferreting out possesed officials and turn-coat clergy during the last years of the Last War. It was during this period that a face-off with a vile fiend of posession effected Marcus in a strange way and turned nearly all of his hair white, save his facial hair and one streak down the middle.
In Thrane, Marcus' popularity and fame grew as he uncovered and helped to handle a number of high-profile posessions and rings of corruption. Marcus was so good at his job, he began noticing a stream of connections with the posessions, and finally, began linking them with corrupted officials in some of the highest church positions. When these powerful priests realised that he was on to them, they turned against Calvani, claiming that he had fell prey to the call of the dark flame, had delved too deeply into the dark lore of demons and devils and found vile power there. They branded him a heritic and sent team after team of Silver Flame faithful after him, in order to apprehend or kill him. Marcus, never meaning to kill the Silver Flame expeditions to get him, nevertheless accidentilally did a few of them in, and feels very guilty about this fact. The failure of his Church to protect him from this corruption and the fact that he has been forced to kill good men or be killed haunts him to this day.
Marcus took refuge in the only place big enough to hide him, Sharn. Not ever abandoning his faith in the Silver Flame, Marcus continued to do what he did best, working now for the common denizen of Sharn, protecting all those who need protection, especially from the vile plots of demons and devils. Occasionally, a Silver Flame faithful will hear of him and attack him, hoping to do the Flame's bidding and bring his to justice. Marcus always tries to explain himself, but inevitably is forced to incapacitate or run away from his attackers.
Marcus, growing tired of these attempts at his life has decided to get his life back. An orginization, recognizing his extraordinary abilities, has approached him, offering information and resources to protect him from these attackers, and eventually helping find proof that will condemn those who falsely accused him and clear his good name. So long as the goals of this orginization aren't wholly evil, Marcu is willing to play along, working toward the greater good as he sees it: the Clensing of the Church of Thrane, and his restoration as a part of it.
Marcus is a tall, slightly lanky individual with a fairly haunted, but placid look to him. He wear his hair long, tied into a ponytail with spare bowstrings. He keeps his beard close-cropped and neat.
