Background
Becoming a Hunter
Marcus was born in Ester, Alaska, two years after his brother Scott. Marcus's early childhood was filled with scrapes on the knee, learning to ride a bike, fishing and everything that a boy should do. It was later discovered that he was a natural for hunting, able to track in the outdoors easily and proving to be a capable rifle shot. He was middle of his class in school, neither the head but not the bottom either. When he was fifteen, the family tragically lost their mother with no explanation to her death, only that it was savage and comparable to an attack from a bear or a pack of wolves.
His father moved the Remington family to Fox, essentially uprooting Marcus from the little stability that he had left. He became a sullen teenager, his grades plummeting and constantly getting into fights at school and being an all around troublemaker. John did what he could to guide the young Marcus, but at the age of seventeen, Marcus was arrested for assault and battery. John decided that some time in jail was what Marcus needed, and he wasn't too far from the truth. For three months, Marcus worked in a work camp for juvenile offenders doing near backbreaking work. He came home a quiet man and finished his high school diploma.
Unlike Scott, Marcus did not go to college. He worked physical labor intensive jobs, like digging and house construction. But it wasn't until he discovered martial arts, as it allowed him to leave the world outside the door of the dojo and calm his inner rage. It was to be tested when his father remarried when Marcus was nineteen. While a part of him raged at the act of the union, he bonded with his step-sister Jennifer tightly, often taking care of her when her mother and his father weren't able to. It seemed like his world was beginning to stabilize once more when he went to work with his father's company. Although offered a position as a foreman initially, Marcus declined and signed up as a skilled laborer.
After six years of what seemed close to peace for Marcus, he and his brother Scott were walking home from the town bar when they came upon a creature that had only been whispered upon since the beginning of time within their own home. Flying into an absolute rage when the vampire turned upon Jennifer, Marcus's time as a heavy laborer, casual martial arts enthusiast and ten years of suppressed anger coupled with his instinctual need to defend the closest member of his family was cut loose upon the unsuspecting creature of the night. He held it off long enough for Scott to stake it in the heart. This did not keep the beast down for long as it rose up to attack the trio again. Marcus grabbed a handy crowbar and beat the thing until it crawled away from the house broken and battered. Scott then finished it up by decapitating the thing with a handy machete.
Several weeks passed from that night as Marcus tried to go back to work, but it didn't hold the same peace for him, and neither did the dojo. The young man confided in his sensei about what happened and how he felt. His sensei looked him evenly in the eye and told him that there were some who were born to fight. Whether he was just a brawler or a protector was up to him.
Marcus returned to the family home one night to pick up his old hunting rifle, he had a short talk with Jennifer about what he was going to do. The sixteen year old girl gave him a fine silver chain with her picture in a locket within to remind him of why he was doing what he felt he had to do. When he walked downstairs, he discovered Scott getting ready himself, backpack filled with everything that he might need, his father in the living room. Marcus shouldered the rifle and merely waited for Scott to come with him. When the Remington brothers left the house, they emerged with a single, united purpose.
Season 1 Post-mortem
Following the death of his brother Scott, Marcus would return home with the body before anyone official could abscond with it, only bringing along his cousin Amanda. He kept his brother's body on ice in the trunk of the 'Cuda the entire way. Taking with him was also several relics (Jarngreipr, Mjolnir and whatever Scott had on him). After crossing the borders en-route to Canada (and bribing one to look the other way), Marcus had to explain to his father what happened to Scott. Their father took it especially hard, as he was hoping Scott would take over the family construction business. Marcus would not have made it through either if it weren't for Jennifer, his step-sister.
In accordance with the burial traditions of the Dena'ina, Scott was cremated and the ashes placed in a birchbark canoe (lovingly crafted by Marcus) at a nearby river. Once the service was finished, Marcus hit the road to try to track down Cassie. He knew that Scott would have taken off without hesitation, and he was already four weeks behind.
During this time, he replaced some of the equipment in the 'Cuda with something a little more "modern". He decided to do this one on his own, leaving Amanda in the care of his family last he saw her. There would be multiple phone calls between the two, but no face-to-face contact. He would follow up leads in his Fox News persona under the pretense of trying to find a crucial witness to a story.
Cassie’s Disappearance Case Notes
Cassie left Baltimore for Philadelphia. Investigating a case involving the disappearance of other Hunters. Particular Hunter Robbie Cornish (thought to have been killed by his wife) died on March 11th. He was a bartender at the Rio, as a long-term cover for his job as a hunter (guess it was how he got paid to supplement his Hunter lifestyle).
Cassie was also investigating Gnosopharm Pharmaceutical.
Cassie’s alt phone is in Las Vegas, as belonging to Sabrina Chapman, AP journalist. Met with Christabel Strong at the Rio for drinks and was handed a file (would gather significant). Christabel is dressed in a business suit and wearing a pentacle as a necklace. Possible witch?
Met with Christabel, she gave Cassie a file on what Robbie was working on. Was a case about a missing person report. Pair of JWs, brother and sister, brother was snatched by something. Said he had been seeing something, then disappeared right before sister's eyes. Was pinned on a serial killer.
Follow-up with Sister.
Talked with Sister, weird shit happened. Got a lead for someone in Ohio, followed up and found Cassie there.
