Ranner Family History

The current Ranner family is a union of two of the oldest and most influential arisocratic families on Coruscant the Marns and the Ranners. Like many of the aristocratic families on the planet they view themselves as an elite social order and only really intermarry with other similar families. Originally both families were rather hostile toward each other with both families competing for similar buisness contracts and similar political appointments during the time of the Republic. These disagreements were even known to become violent on several occasions leading to high loss of life on both sides as the different houses battled for supremecy. Eventually both of the family patriarchs determined that continuing hostility would result in either destruction or a government sanctions on family buisnesses and the only way to prevent further conflict would be a permament alliance of the two houses. This was acheived sometime before the founding of the Empire when Aleenia Ingrid Marns the eldest Marns daughter was married to Jaccub Tybalt Ranner the eldest Ranner son. This resulted in the creation of the current Ranner house which is considered by many to be one of the wealthiest and influential families on Coruscant. The Ranner family itself has a long history of military and political involvement with both sides of the family having taking part in the Republics military and political process. This tradition of public and military service is expected by the family and has resulted in the children's education focusing heavily on preparing them to carry on in these fields. Jaccub Tybalt Ranner himself served with distinction in the Republic and has prepared his sons to follow in the same way.

Appearence

Marcus is a well built human male in his early twenties. Marcus is slightly below average height but well proportioned with broad shoulders and an athletic build suggestive of an individual who has spent a good deal of time working out. Has an aristocratic face with sharp distinct features and a rough looking visage of an individual with a lot on his plate. Ordinarily found in military styled uniforms similar to Imperial uniforms when not on duty.

Personality

Marcus has a complex psychological profile that many would find surprising. Normally when encountering people Marcus displays a rather juvenile attitude joking with others and acting like an individual who is far out of his own depth. This may include him acting like he doesn't know what to do or his jovial attitude towards many subjects. This attitude springs from Marcus' training which has taught him to let others underestimate his abilities until it is necessary to reveal them. Marcus also has a strong belief in chivalry and the role of a gentleman. This has created in him a strong sense of duty and honor similar to times of old. Unlike other Imperial Arisocrats Marcus believes highly in merit believing that everyone should only get what they merit through work.
