Character and Background

In P.Y. ??, Sir Candeth Martine was taken from his homeland of Aluvia and found himself on Dereth. On Ispar, he left behind his young daughter Aritta and wife Melanay.[1] [2] When he first arrived, he felt lost and alone[3]. He joined The Exploration Society so he could help other new arrivals[2]. On one mission, observing a Mosswart tribe[4], he was betrayed by his mentor Sir Alayne, and given up to the Virindi in exchange for their help against the Hopeslayer.[5]
Aerbax(ref missing) altered Candeth into the human-virindi hybrid known as Martine.[6]Cite error: Invalid parameter in <ref> tag In his writings, Martine refers to the Virindi leading the experiment as "Master" and "Jean", the leading Virindi being "The Overseer" , the Virindi refer to him as "Puppet". [7]He manages to escape from his Virindi Masters and having suffered himself so much, seeks to disrupt the Virindi experiments.[5]
As Martine, he played a major role in the development of the Simulacra and Dranith Menacet [8] and the making of the Singularity Weapons [9]. Other assignments given to Martine include the calling back in-line of an altered Mosswart Tribe.[10]
Martine was extraordinarily powerful, but the conflict between his own mind and the virindi-consciousness also drove him insane.Cite error: Invalid parameter in <ref> tag
Asheron tried to heal him, but though his body seemed healed, his mind was still raving. Martine seems to blame Asheron for working together with the Directive, and being responsible for separating him from his family and swears revenge. [5]Cite error: Invalid parameter in <ref> tag
Though the base of the lore around Martine is laid during the The Rise of the New Singularity Story Arc, his major role is during the Elements of Revenge Story Arc.

Martine disrupts portal space and an Empyrean named [{Gaerlan]] escapes and brings him under his control.[5]
His madness continuing, Martine appeared as a pretty destructive character during Live events in the Hidden Vein patch, raiding several towns and other locations such as the Obsidian Plains. Sometimes he appeared friendlier, exchanging Renegade's Tokens for Quiddity Ingots [11]
During the Castling event, Martine appears at two of the gatherings called out by Elysa Strathelar (June 28th and July 8th), accusing Asheron of foul play, and confusing Elysa and his lost wife[12] [13]
During the Repercussions event, Martine resided in Martine's Retreat. Players could hand him either the Tusker Husk or the Letter for Melaney to strengthen the Virindi or the Human influence respectively.
Martine appears a few times after the different Cores of the Cistern have been destroyed during the The Elemental Cisterns live events during the Atonement event.[14] The final battle at September 18th between Gaerlan and Martine ends with the fall of Gaerlan's Citadel and the disappearance of Martine[15][5]
Martine survives, and from his later conversations with Asheron, it becomes clear that the majority of the players handing him the Letter for Melanay, made him make his choice to side with the Isparians.[16]
His current whereabouts are unknown, however, Martine's Robe and Martine's Mask can be found at the end of the Gaerlan's Citadel quest
