Marcus Varga

Description

A gaunt seventeen-year-old with hollow cheeks and clothes that hang loose on his bony frame. His hands are covered in deliberate scars forming geometric patterns, some still healing. Despite his exhausted appearance, he gestures wildly when speaking and takes up far more space than his thin body should allow.

Backstory

Marcus was embraced three years ago by a Tzimisce elder who saw potential in the teenager's obsessive nature and complete lack of regard for his own wellbeing. As a mortal, Marcus had been a promising medical student who got kicked out of university for conducting unauthorized dissections on cadavers - he claimed he was 'perfecting' them. His sire taught him the basics of Vicissitude before disappearing, leaving Marcus to explore the discipline on his own. He's become utterly consumed with his 'craft,' viewing flesh-shaping as the highest form of art and science combined. Marcus has been abducting homeless individuals and runaways to use as subjects for his experiments, telling himself he's advancing medical knowledge. He keeps detailed journals of every procedure, sketching anatomical diagrams with disturbing modifications. His professional pride has warped into something monstrous - he genuinely believes his work will revolutionize medicine and considers himself a misunderstood genius. The local Camarilla has begun investigating the string of disappearances, putting Marcus on a collision course with vampire society.
