Vitiligo(patches where skin lacks pigment)

-ISFP

-He is reserved but incredibly respectful and considerate. He is easy-going and always willing to accept people for who they are rather than who he would like to be
-He prefers to focus on the present rather than worry about what the future may hold
-He dislikes abstract theories unless he can see some type of practical application for them and prefers learning situations that involve gaining hands-on experience
-Kinda the mom friend, always there to comfort everyone and keep them in check
-Despite his calm demeanor, Marco does surprisingly bad with authority figures because he often feels demeaned by them and that's kind of his pressure point

Cross Country and Violin

He dislikes psychology majors because he struggles with moral dilemmas

-He has a strong need for personal space

-His values
-Preventing confrontation

-He’s the strong silent type

Student

He was raised Christian but it doesn't define his adult life at all.

Sometimes it's hard to tell but although Marco seems to think very traditionally, his political ideals are nearly radical. He believes that the American Government could be completely overturned and rebuilt much better. Maybe his French side makes him more of a revolutionary.

He went to private school and took a gap year before college to study music in France, where his mother was born. He is fluent in English, French, and Latin. He is a composer as well an a musician.

February 18th

His mother is from France and moved to the US for work where she met his father. Marco was always rather shy but also a very creative boy and his mother insisted on buying him a violin for his eighth birthday and teaching him to play. Ever since, he has been in love with music and believes in to be a unifying force of the world. He was the oldest of four children so he often had to play parent. This also gave him a good talent as a mediator and he considered being a lawyer for a short time, before deciding to study the violin, his true passion. He fully intends to become a professional orchestral violinist. When he started college, for a time he was tutored by Alec Boyd and didn't get along with him. He also played for one of Amara Al Tahir 's shows and became quick friends with her. He agreed to participate in The Wonderland Project at Dr. Bernard Shelby's personal request. He considered refusing but decided to go along with it when he found out Amara was invited too.

Marco is in love with Alec Boyd . Alec tutored him for a time and Marco found himself liking it a little too much, so he put on a mask of disliking Alec to combat his feelings because he assumed Alec didn't return his adoration. He does not have feelings for Amara.
