Marlon Styx is a very confused spy.
Appearance
Marlon Styx is a stern and pious looking bald man, suitable to be cast as a monk in an adaptation of The Name of the Rose.[1]
When he attends the masquerade on the Isle of the Broken Key, he wears a peach cloak, a black turtleneck, bright red pants, and a red oval full-face mask. Austin took heavy inspiration from 1967 British TV miniseries The Prisoner for this, in particular the very similar outfit worn by Number Nine in the first episode of the series.[2]
History and Involvement
Originally assigned by the BIS to infiltrate the Isle of the Broken Key, he finds himself swayed by the Dim Liturgy's holy texts, which consist of the remaining predictions of Crystal Palace. One of these predictions apparently foretold his own "crosswise" allegiances. He is drawn between the two sides, and either a double or triple agent at this point.[1]
He manages to get into the masquerade party in "The Canvas of Dreams" and attaches himself to Phrygian, whose presence and outfit was also foretold by the texts of the Dim Liturgy.[2]
