Marth faded into existence in his main office, on the third floor of the Tower of Redemption and Destruction. The room covered the entire third floor of the buildings - a perfectly round library sporting tall bookshelves and archives, a large table for planning and conferences, as well as a desk near the window pointing away from the courtyard, opposite of which was the staircase, and an other window offering a splendid view over the Grey Square, and the front facade of the courthouse. He awaited Dalanesca's arrival, and smiled at her. "Let's visit Malum, shall we?"
Due to the tower's location, it didn't take long for the two to get to Malum. There, Marth found a suitable spot, and put the shard down. Marth's darker thoughts didn't manifest at this time - with an effort of will, he'd twisted Malum to instead replicate a phenomenon he'd dreader in his younger days - a ley-field gale. A torrent of magickal power which could severely destabilize a spell if you wern't trained enough, it also had a secondary property - washing away enchantment and host entities. These gales couldn't be forseen on Revaliir - and were also very rarely observed - but here, in Malum, Marth could summon his own fears. He looked at Dalanesca and nodded, and threw the shard into the torrent.
With a shriek, a shadow escaped the shard, causing it to dissolve. The shadow had red, glowing eyes, and the only part of it which seemed physical was the inside of the abomination's mouth. Reaver, as represented by a dark version of Marth, stepped out from behind a house, chuckling. "Oh, look, people! It's ME!" The shadow-creature spun towards the apparition, hissing. "So other aspects of me survived." The Marauder sarcastically applauded the shadow-Reaver on its observation. "Well, woop-de-fuckin' do, dipshit. We knew what happened when we were destroyed. it's not like violence has only one face. Which reminds me, which of the sissy-versions of me are you?" The shadow-creature appeared a bit dumbfounded by the Marauder's commentary, but answerec - briefly. "I am the Silent Slayer, Reaver the Assassin." The Marauder perked an eyebrow, apparently unimpressed. "Oh, right, sneaky-stabby me. Always in silence. Gah, you took all the fun out of the killing. But hey, that reminds me, wern't you an assassin once, o mighty she-god?" Marth - that is, Marth Coralax, the mage - looked at Dalanesca, and barely managed to stifle a laugh. However, he quickly recovered his wits and looked at Reaver the Assassin.
"Well, Reaver the Assassin. I've hunted the shards for a long time, and the time has come to strike a shard from the list. Are you ready to be destroyed?" The shadow-creature turned to look at marth, its red eyes narrowing. "I cannot die in the ethereal realms." Marth assumed an expression of brief shock, before he began to chuckle. "That's very true. it might even be possible that the Justiciar herself would be incapable of a greater feat than confining you to Malum. Luckily, she doesn't have to." "What are you implying, mortal?" marth took a step closer, grinning. "I'm saying, you cannot die here… But you cannot survive in the physical world of Revaliir." The demon looked puzzled, as if not quite understanding what marth was saying. Then a moment of terrible realisation came upon it, but before it could speak, Marth destroyed it with a few simple words. "Reaver the Assassin… You are banished from the Blinded Scales." And in an anticlimactic pop, Reaver the Assassin was cast back into the physical world, where its energies scattered to all the arcane winds forever.
- High priest of the Justiciar, titled Redeemer and Destroyer.
- Marth's alter ego, Reaver, is -not- a demon. Rather, it is a result of a demon's exorcism - a mental scar that won't go away. Reaver is, however, CE.
- Marth is deceptively strong in combat, though easy to misdirect when destabilized.
