Marcus Nightcloud's past is a clouded one at best, as he rarely, if ever, discusses his private life. All that is know is that he was born on Tattooine, and lost his parents to Tuskan Raiders at an early age. Marcus managed to avoid being killed himself, impressing the Tuskan chieftan by daring to challenge him in battle, successfully wounding him. The tribe took him to raise as one of their own, adopting him as part of the chief's own family. He proved his mettle as a warrior, and lived among the tribe until he reached his mid teens. A rogue Imperial squadron attacked and killed Marcus' tribe while he was away hunting, and he spent the next few years tracking down his adopted family's killers. Once he found those responsible, he slew them all without remorse or mercy. His next few years were spend living as a fugitive from the Imperials in the desert wastes, surviving by any means he could manage. Eventually, he made his way to Mos Eisley, where, despite his savage appearance, his intelligence was recognized, and he was recruited into the Rebel Alliance by his future CO and best friend Foreseensith.

Marcus had a bit of difficulty adjusting to life in the Rebel Academy due to his lack of contact with civilization and limited knowledge of Galactic Basic. However, when it came time for flight training, Marcus showed a natural talent for fighter ship piloting and combat, being able to outfly and outfight his instructors. Forseensith saw to Marcus' education and training, and, once it was completed, drafted him into Starfighter Command. Marcus spent many years in SFC, successfully running several missions for the Rebel Alliance and Rebel Intelligence, working his way to the rank of Grand Marshal, second in command of SFC, as well as taking on a teaching position at the Rebel Academy. He eventually grew weary of the political infighting, and resigned in disgust after the controversy regarding Cyrus Cloudwalker's impeachment.

Marcus spent the next few years around the Core, taking on freelance jobs here and there, until the need for a steady income led him to Tytus Transportation, and spent approximately a year working for them before the company dissolved. He went back to freelancing for many years, but as the cost of living in the galaxy kept increasing, the need for an income brought him to join the Black Curs. He worked with them for nearly a year, running logistics and city building, before being recruited into Galentro Heavy Works, and, by extension, the Galactic Alliance. Marcus' hard work and talent was recognized by Alex Masha, the leader of GHW, and was given leadership of The Pentastar Alliance when the previous leader went missing. Although the previous leader has returned, his leadership ability and work ethic has allowed him to retain his position of faction leader, as well as a position on the Krath Dynasty's Moff Council.

Personality

Despite his savage upbringing, he is soft spoken, as well as kind hearted almost to a fault. When the need arises, however, he can be as cold as space. He has a bit of penchant for crude humor, and is not above poking fun at those that consider themselves to be "superior". He is very independent and prefers to work outside a formal chain of command, instead relying on his years of experience as a pilot to guide him.
