This blog post is about Marik Ishtar from the show Yu-Gi-Oh. Marik is one of the many antagonists in Yu-Gi-Oh, but he did end up redeeming himself. He is the younger brother of Ishizu, and the heir to the Tomb Keepers. He had a dark side of himself called Yami Marik, which was usually suppressed by Odion. He had an organization called the Rare Hunters, which would take the rarest card of the opponent they defeated. Marik could also control the minds of others, and banish their souls to the Shadow Realm using his Millenium Rod. His dark side did take complete control of him at one point, too.
