( though marc spector is relatively newly arrived, it is not his first, nor his second, or even his third experience with something like this. he's dressed in his clothes — or vestments, as he likes to call them: an all-white three-piece suit decorated with small crescent moon details and a larger crescent moon embroidered on the forehead of the mask he's wearing.
when he speaks though, the voice is fairly ordinary — adult male, chicago-accented with hints of new york here and there. )
Good evening. Some of us have met, but for those of us who haven't, my name is Mr. Knight. ( is it? no, of course not, but it's the only name he's sought to provide anywhere. ) I'm the high priest of Khonshu — one of the gods of the moon. Formerly, I ran a mission out of Manhattan. ( beat. ) For the protection of those who travel at night. ( is he going to elaborate on what that means? no. not really. ) A status of being that includes all present here.
( punctuated by a breath of a pause and a slight, fleeting glance to one side. )
While I lack all the resources I had previously, a preist does not need much. If anyone finds themselves in need, from the mundane through to the weird — quests, protection, investigations—. ( marc unfurls a gloved hand and lifts a shoulder in a minute shrug. ) Please, don't hesitate to get in touch.
This isn't my first rodeo, as they say.
( ooc— marc will absolutely be looking at running a version of his midnight mission out of stygia. for the time being, he'll simply want to raise his profile a touch, make sure he's known. he operates predominately at night but keeps irregular sleeping patterns so can and will be contactable during the day. )

( he'll come back to this 'ascension' malarkey later: in spite of everything, metaphysics has never really been marc's thing either.
bu also — and more pertinently — he needs to know who to hit up if he Needs anything. )

[ Especially when you're making and shipping your own drugs. ]
But I got my start when I was a boy in smuggling. Used to find any number of needed items, from the mundane to the rare.

Or I'm sorry, "being transported to another dimension".
So yes, they are true here.

I want equipment, Silco.
no subject
Or are you fine with stock? If you want unbreakable equipment, it requires souls.
no subject
( although depending on the specifics, souls may not be an issue either — something khonshu, something eater of hearts, something nothing fucking new, but marc's trying not to, you know, kill people these days. )
I'm a simple man, and there's never been a good priest that asks for much in the way of money or material goods.
no subject
A priest, are you?
Well come my way, if you need something, and I'm certain I can deliver. I've been here long enough now that I have a bit of a network. To all of your advantage, of course.
[ And not to line his pockets... ]

( is this going to work out well? who knows, not marc.
getting along with people, forming alliances, making good decisions— he's never done especially well with any of it, and he knows he's in a vulnerable position. he knows that this — all of it — could backfire spectacularly as he's still trying to work out who's good ('good') and who's not. who's worth knowing and who's worth watching.
he knows, too, that jake would be better here — this conversation, specifically — but jake (and steven) aren't avenues he's willing to even contemplate right now, so it's
marc. ) All our advantage, huh? ( interesting remark. something to keep in mind for later, maybe. ) Send you a message, or is there somewhere to find you?

[ And he's mostly stuck around there 99% of his time since arriving. It's hard to avoid the humm and bustle of a lively area, and Silco's the sort of person who does best in a place like that. That, and he's been paying off plenty of people for information and leads.
Just crime boss things. ]

a mask, but
you know. )
See you around, Silco.

Don't be a stranger, Mr. Knight.
