[After having been carried out of the maze by Tianlang-Jun, Marik remains mostly cooped up in his apartment.

It's his new habit of wanting to bite people that keeps him to himself, you see.

Residents can catch a glimpse of him walking through the halls from time to time, scales around his neck, eyes a soft green instead of the striking lavender they normally are, and overall strange posture. Approach with caution.]

[The Egyptian decides to check out the new cafe once he's been relieved of the effects of the sirens' bite. Those passing by will find whatever was written after his name has been scribbled out with a kohl stick but is still somewhat legible:

"My name is Marik Ishtar. I used a cursed relic and Egyptian God Cards to try and become Pharaoh of the world."

He's been half tempted to just throw the nametag out entirely, glaring down at it as he stirs some honey into his tea. Despite his somewhat sour expression, the boy is very happy to be back in the city. Makeup, hair, and clothes on point as usual.]

[Certain events in the maze have left an impression on the teen. So much so that he stumbles across the catacombs and begins exploring them, finding a strange but familiar peace amongst the dead.

As much as he hates that he was forced into the life of a Tomb Keeper, he still tries to uphold the ancient traditions and beliefs of his clan. He can be found sitting on the steps halfway down, or walking among the ossuaries and muttering things under his breath in an unfamiliar language to most.

It's a good place to meditate and balance himself. Someplace that reminds him of home.]

[Whatever goes here! If you want to meet him around the city or go on a scavenger hunt with him, I'm up for anything. Just reply here or shoot me a PM!]
