During his efforts to perfect the [[Fr0st-EE5]]s, Marcus asked his fellow [[SRL]] racer Blue [[Boaz]] to help test them out. Boaz thought the boots were great despite the name, and Marcus was glad they worked so well despite the problems he still had not fixed, admitting that the Energy Transfer Capacitors had around a two-percent chance of exploding. His friend was furious that Marcus had him test them without warning about the danger, threating to inform Deputy-Commander [[Sloane]], but Marcus quickly offered him rare Sparrow mods to ensure his silence.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/5/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Warmind (expansion)|Warmind]], Activision Blizzard - [[Fr0st-EE5]]''</ref>

Marcus was part of several fireteams of Guardians deployed to the [[Cosmodrome]] in the aftermath of the [[SIVA Crisis]]. The fireteams found most of the [[Fallen]] [[House of Devils]] hideouts abandoned, with their banners and House armor burned. After the mission, Marcus spoke with Sloane and stated that he believed that the Fallen's siege of the City was broken, as the other Fallen Houses across the system had also abandoned their holdings and disappeared.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/3/28)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Age of Triumph]], Activision Blizzard - [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends_%26_Mysteries#Ghost_Fragment:_Fallen_6|Ghost Fragment: Fallen 6]]''</ref>

During the [[Red Legion]]'s assault on the [[Last City]], Marcus was drained of his [[Light]] when the Cabal placed a [[Traveler Cage|cage]] upon the Traveler. Attempting to escape the occupied City, Marcus raced through the streets on his Sparrow while imagining commentary from the SRL narrating his ride. He was ambushed by a [[Centurion]] who destroyed his Sparrow, sending him crashing into a mound of debris, briefly knocking him out. As he came to, he found himself being picked up by the neck by the Centurion and with a broken leg. As the Centurion choked the life out of the Hunter, Marcus continued to imagine SRL commentary and thought that he had a good run, but this was the end for him. However, his partner and fellow SRL racer [[Enoch Bast]] arrived and tackled the Centurion before killing it in hand-to-hand combat. With Marcus heavily wounded, Enoch carried him to safety out of the Cabal occupied city.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/5/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Warmind (expansion)|Warmind]], Activision Blizzard - [[Comrades in Arms]]''</ref>

During a SRL race, Marcus took the lead right out of the gate, with Enoch behind him in second. As he planned on how to celebrate his victory later he slowed down to match speed with his friend and exchanged some friendly mocking. As he did so again on the final lap, Marcus was stunned when another racer shot past both of them and almost loses his balance. Throttling his Sparrow up to full speed he attempted to catch up with the racer, whose Sparrow he did not recognize, but he is unable to make up ground as the other racer gets further ahead. Marcus comes in second, but the unidentified racer, who entered as "Jane Doe", does not stay to collect her winnings.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/12/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory]], Activision Blizzard - [[Dark Horse]]''</ref>

Marcus was an extreme risk taker.
