Marcus Hendricks was a Slytherin student who attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from 1998 - 2005. Originally from Caerphilly, but now living in Sussex, Marcus was a talented Quidditch player, representing the house of Slytherin and captaining the 1999 Hogwarts team in their final match against Beauxbatons Academy of Magic.

Early Life
Marcus was born to Justin and Christine Hendricks in Caerphilly, Wales in 1986, and lived there for a year before his parents moved to Sussex in England. He attended a Muggle primary school until he was ten years old, before his parents spent a year preparing him for the magical world. Aged eleven, Marcus began his first year at Hogwarts under Headmaster Severus Snape, when attendance was mandatory. It was not a thrilling experience, but after witnessing some of the Battle of Hogwarts, Marcus gritted his teeth and showed up for his Second Year.

Life at Hogwarts
After the Second Wizarding War, Marcus began his second year at Hogwarts, which had undergone extensive renovations. After showing great prowess on the Quidditch pitch, Marcus was selected to represent not only his House Team, Slytherin, but was also asked by Harry Potter to play as Keeper for Hogwarts. Marcus excelled in the role, and became a dependable player for any team.

During the Cedric Diggory Quidditch Cup - contested between Beauxbatons, Hogwarts, and Durmstrang - Marcus befriended not only Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley, as well as the rest of his teammates, but formed something of a relationship with the then Beauxbatons Chaser, Gabrielle Delacour. At the end of the tournament, Marcus's Hogwarts team won the Cedric Diggory Cup, and Gabrielle revealed that she would be attending Hogwarts in Third Year.
