Marcus Corvinus was one of three sons of Helena and Alexander Corvinus. Alexander was a Hungarian warlord who carried a genetic mutation that made him immortal when it interacted with a deadly virus that had wiped out his entire village. Marcus and his identical twin brother, William, both inherited this mutation from him. William was bitten by a wolf, making him the first werewolf. Marcus was subsequently bitten by a bat, making him the first vampire.William went on to ravage the countryside of Hungary, infecting the populace with his highly infectious lycanthropy virus. In order to combat the growing lycan threat, Marcus approached Viktor, a dying warlord, to borrow his military genius and army (who became the Death Dealers) in exchange for immortality. Viktor accepted and became one of the Vampire Elders. Marcus also personally infected Amelia, making her the first and only Vampiress Elder.In 1202, Viktor led a charge into a Hungarian village which William had recently passed through, leaving dead bodies everywhere in his wake. William's bite was extremely infectious, and the dead villagers began to come back as lycans, attacking and killing some of the vampires. The remaining Death Dealers, along with the Elder Amelia, located and subdued William in a cave. Marcus pleaded with Viktor for his brother's life and reminded him that he had agreed not to hurt William. It would later be revealed that Viktor only abstained from killing Marcus himself because Marcus had told him that, should he die, the entire bloodline of vampires would die along with him; and that the same held true for William and the lycans (Viktor's slaves). Viktor locked William away where he could not escape and concealed the location of the prison from Marcus.Following William's capture, the Chain was constructed, a system where only one Elder ruled while the other two slumbered. However, the true power was in Viktor's hands, as he was the ruler of the Old World coven. Viktor started to gather more power to himself, going so far as to retell history and forbid searching into the archives so that later generations would come to know him as the oldest and strongest of the vampires. Marcus claimed that he enjoyed the company of Andreas Tanis, the Official Historian of the coven, most likely because Tanis knew that Marcus was in fact the original vampire. However, Viktor and Amelia undercut Marcus' power, ensuring that he would never have the necessary information or backing to be able to free his brother.Centuries later, on the eve of Marcus' awakening for his century reign, a lycan plot led by the presumed dead Lucian to combine the bloodlines became evident. A captured lycan scientist called Singe explained Lucian's plan to the vampires under duress, and was killed afterward by a death blow from Viktor. His blood seeped into Marcus' tomb and revived the slumbering Elder, awakening him and turning him into a hybrid before the regent Kraven could return to the coven and attempt to kill him. After drinking Kraven's blood to learn his memories, Marcus decapitated the treacherous regent with a wing claw, and then proceeded to burn down Ordoghaz, the Old World coven. Determined that the time had come to free William, he sought to find Selene and Michael Corvin, his great-nephew many generations removed. Michael held one of two pieces of the key to William's prison, and Selene was the only surviving witness to the prison's location.Marcus failed on his first attempt to bite Selene, thanks to Michael. He did, however, manage to snatch Michael's key away during a fight in the bed of a truck being driven by Selene. Marcus soon learned from Tanis that the other half of the key had been implanted within Viktor's body, which was now in the possession of Alexander Corvinus. Marcus attacked the ship his father was living on while Selene and Michael were there, engaging Michael in a second fight and nearly killing him. Marcus was then attacked by Selene but easily overpowered her, taking that opportunity to drink her blood and learn the location of William's prison. Once he had the memory in his own head, Marcus proceeded to confront and attack his father, retrieving the second half of the key from him.When Marcus opens William's prison and wakes him by torchlight, William starts to charge, but suddenly stops as he recognizes and remembers his brother. Soon after William is released by Marcus, Selene and Michael arrive, and a battle ensues. While Marcus engages Selene, Michael manages to kill William by pulling his jaws apart and ripping off the top half of his head. Marcus, infuriated, runs Selene through with a wing claw. But Selene, now the stronger from having drunk the blood of Alexander Corvinus himself, breaks off the end of Marcus' wing claw and impales his head with it. Then she shoves him into the spinning blades of a helicopter, killing him.Because Marcus is the first vampire, and carries in his blood an ancient copy of the virus that is next in line to the original specimen which had initially mixed with his father's mutation to give rise to the immortals, he has tremendous strength and speed which are far superior to that of most vampires. Being the original vampire and later becoming a hybrid granted him the ability to take on a form with bat-like features (wings, facial features, and ears similar to a bat's). He also demonstrates the ability to use his wings offensively, as seen in instances where he decapitates Kraven and impales numerous enemies, including Selene and Michael Corvin. Marcus is an expert swordsman, having had centuries to master the weapon. Marcus is able to recover from significant injuries quickly, suggesting an advanced healing factor. Like the other two Vampire Elders, Marcus Corvinus has the ability to extract another's memory by drinking their blood.Edited from Wikipedia and Wikia Show less «
