Marcus "One-eye" Venn spent his childhood and middle-aged years in the Coruscant Underworld. He is intimately familiar with Coruscant's gangs and street-level crime. He's spent his entire life on Coruscant and has traveled away from the planet very little. Through his escapades, Marcus eventually drew the eye of The Family, who offered him a job developing and running their spice-smuggling & distribution rackets across the planet. He has excelled in this position, and risen to be The Family's go-to guy - even rising to the ranks of "Made Man" in The Family. He executes his duties to the letter, always kicks up to his shadowy superiors without fail, and personally handles complications in his sphere of responsibility without fail.
He has created a sizeable nest egg for himself, relying on his investments in some of The Family's legitimate businesses to give himself a veneer of respectability. He is, however, a "street-guy", born and raised, and even his associations with the powerful Mafia Syndicate have done little to alter his rough demeanor and reputation for brutal efficiency.
