role HH&R Secretary
There's something about her - something that doesn't seem human - like an animal pivots their movements and pushes them to action. Marka Kalbach seems to be in a constant state of fight or flight, but its a state that leads her to self destruction. Maybe its on purpose - maybe its unintentional - like a caged bird. But this bird has never been caged, this bird has had it all - and then some. This bird just wants to destroy itself.
Design Notes
- Designer: Me! Art credits to spoketto!
- Marka has a lightning scar that travels down the left side of her body.
- She is slightly blind in one eye - giving to the different colors in her eyes, and how one color is far more faded.
- Often her face is rather void of emotion - but she has very explosive moments! Very rarely seen... Genuinely smiling. Or.. Smiling.
- She wears a little vest, a turtleneck beneath it that tucks into a plaid skirt, and two different colored tights beneath it with heels.

One of Marka's first memories is the gleam of the hospital lights - how they rushed past her vision as she was wheeled down the hallway - people talking, her mothers face scrunched into tight concern as her father struggled to keep up.
There's something about those moments - something about them thats the only true moments where Marka feels love - feels the sorry her parents should always have for her.
She had electrocuted herself. She couldn't dance again. She couldn't hold a pencil without tremors sparking through her fingertips.
Marka Kalbach is a firework.

01.
The Beginning
Marka could practically gag on the silver spoon from how it was always in their mouth. She was coddled - to say it in simpler words, from the moment she was born to the moment she'll die - she's the apple of her parents eye, even in spite of their fear.
They would grow up having everything she wanted - and then more. Whenever there was issue, the way to sooth was to give Marka exactly what they wanted - because if they didn't get it soon, the meltdown could kill.
Marka's misbehavior, her ugly attitude, her impolite personality were all kept under wraps in the face of other families - their daughter was perfect, she was smart, and most of all - there was nothing wrong.
They set her up for success, planting every little stepping stone in her life before her - deep down, they were aware Marka wouldn't make it far into the world.
02.
The Middle
Its as if there's nothing to soothe Marka's spirit. Therapy - it doesn't do anything, she acts out in ways that aren't exactly seen as defiance - simply thoughtless violence. Her parents can't remember the last time they didn't feel concern. She throws herself into oncoming traffic, she electrocutes herself, she tears apart the things around her - the person in the mirror, or the people around her.
Adam Li, her soon to be husband, would be the main victim of this. Each girlfriend, each friend of his, torn away - blackmailed, pushed out - out of the picture. When caught, she melts down and harms herself. You can't hold any blame towards her. You have to feel sorry.
No one tells her no - no one tells her to stop - when Adam seeks justice, his father and her parents tell him just to ignore it.
They take her out of schooling, giving her a private teacher - one they always have to raise the pay for because they're always close to quitting.
Therapy doesn't work - nothing soothes, Marka once danced, she can't dance anymore.
03.
An End
The stepping stones are placed. Maybe she's skipped a few - but no ones told her no. She's lept into the real world, and she operates it through her own lens - people have to bend towards hers.
Parents
Truth be told, Marka does not have many feelings towards their parents. The relationship has always been distant, like a zookeeper and a crocodile, they keep an arms distance from her, afraid of losing an arm or two if they were to tread onto the wrong side.
Fiance
Is it love? Is it hatred? She doesn't exactly care, but either way, she has been possessive of Adam Li since she could ever remember. Expected by the Li and Kalbach family to marry soon, Marka has kept her grip locked on tight. Its not love, its not hatred, its a mix of something else all together.
Adam's Father
Mr. Li is not loved by many - but he has always been a man that Marka has enjoyed nevertheless. The perfect key straight to Adam, whether it be through the most ethical ways is questionable.
Adams "Friend"
One of Adam's recent associates, Kappy, has been a figure that Marka has been watching like a bird would a small worm on a rainy morning. As all the rest of Adams past relationships, she won't be allowing it to last long.
