History
Marselen and his three siblings were captured in their native island of Naath by raiders from the Basilisk Isles, and sold into slavery in Astapor. His sister Missandei was trained as a scribe, but Marselen and his two brothers were gelded and trained by the Good Masters to be Unsullied. Marselen and Mossador survived the harsh training, but their other brother did not.[1]
