Marsh was a half-skaa Seeker from the Final Empire on Scadrial. He was the brother of Kelsier, and the brother in law of Mare. At some point he was captured and seemingly killed by the Lord Ruler, but it was later revealed that he was still alive, having been transformed into a Steel Inquisitor. During the Wax & Wayne series a religion still survives which worships him, and he himself is still alive, although his current goals are mostly unknown.
Appearance and Personality[]
Before becoming an Inquisitor, Marsh was stern and determined, earning him the name "Ironeyes" as a result of his piercing gaze. Marsh looks very similar to his brother Kelsier, even after becoming an Inquisitor. Steel Ministry tattoos and spikes through his eyes are a prominent feature of his face after being made an Inquisitor.
Attributes and Abilities[]
Marsh was a Seeker, a Misting who could burn bronze. He was highly skilled and taught Vin how to use bronze effectively.
Upon becoming an Inquisitor, he gained further abilities in Allomancy and Feruchemy through the use of Hemalurgic spikes. He gained many more spikes than were usual for an Inquisitor in the Lord Ruler's time; upwards of twenty. Some of the spikes Marsh has have granted him the abilities of Allomantic steel, iron, pewter, tin, brass, zinc, duralumin, and atium, as well as granting him the abilities of Feruchemical pewter, steel, gold, and atium. His spike for Allomantic bronze, coupled with his natural ability as a Seeker, lets him pierce standard copperclouds.
His multiple atium abilities allow him to extend his life as Rashek had. His Feruchemical atium spike carries an unknown Hemalurgic property[disputed] as well as being able to store age.[16] In addition to this, he kept the bag of atium that KanPaar attempted to sell, meaning that he has enough to stay alive for a very long time.

Marsh and his nickname, "Ironeyes", survived the events of the Catacendre. He has become a mythical figure in Elendel's popular culture, being the personification of Death. He is also the focus of Sliverism. Though likely given far more autonomy under the direction of Harmony, he continues to serve as one of his agents.
He delivered a book to Wax through Marasi, using emotional Allomancy to make her curious enough to follow him.
He has been investigating the Southern Continent of Scadrial.
