History: Born to Lord and Lady Lichfield in 1171, Marion was entered into a life she did not choose. On the outside her family seemed like ordinary noblemen, but within them lay a secret. They were Assassins. Marion was born into the Creed, and at an early age she began to learn the ways, of the Assassin. She began training at the age of four, going on her first mission at age 10, with her mentor and cousin, Lord Craig of York. Marion was a fast learner, and grasped everything with ease, though her blending had a lot of working on.

By the time she was fifteen, Marion was going on her own missions, for the Assassins. Templar rule was rife, and getting stronger year by year, especially when Richard I came to the throne, in 1189. She wasn't the only one who suspected that Richard would fight for the Holy Land, the English Assassin's sensed it too. The group sprang into action, but at a brutal cost. Most of the Brureu in Lichfield were slain, and the rest had gone to support the Assassin's in Masayf. By this point Marion was nineteen, and a Rank 2 Assassin.

She now works in Masayf. Trying to hunt down the Templar knight, that slew her kin. As Marion never forgives easily, she will hunt down her prey until she has cut them down. Now working under Al Mulim, Marion is just but a handful of English Assassins working with those in Al Mulim's care.
