Marchos Demarque

Name: Marchos Demarque

Age: 79

General Description: Durant's Minister of the Interior and the Duke of Tredgold, uncle of Carlyle Demarque and Grandfather of Lawrence Demarque. The sole survivor of the thorough culling of staff upon Saint-Just's ascension to the throne, Demarque was allowed to keep a number of his powers if only out of respect for his experience. In truth, he is little more than a clerk, left to push papers while Saint-Just tends to the serious matters of state. He is aware of Lawrence's involvement with the Inquisitors, but has chosen to keep any opinions on the matter firmly to himself.

Mannerisms: Seems to be growing somewhat senile, considering his lapses into isolation and apparent indifference toward the fate of the nation and its people.

Relationships: Ignores his grandson Lawrence, finds Carlyle tiresome but reliable. Wary of Erick Saint-Just.
