| - Grand Confessor Marcion was a prominent Nod figure serving the Brotherhood since the Second Tiberium War. He was last seen during the Second Nod Reunification War in 2034.
- Marcion (84 - c.160 AD), born at Sinope in Pontus, the son of a bishop, he traveled to Rome circa 135 and became a member of the church there. Developing some eccentric theological views, he eventually taught that the god of the Old Testament was not the true God but rather that the true and higher God had been revealed only with Jesus Christ. He therefore rejected the theology of the Old Testament. Marcion wrote the Antitheses to show the differences between the god of the Old Testament and the true God.

| - Grand Confessor Marcion was a prominent Nod figure serving the Brotherhood since the Second Tiberium War. He was last seen during the Second Nod Reunification War in 2034.
- Marcion (84 - c.160 AD), born at Sinope in Pontus, the son of a bishop, he traveled to Rome circa 135 and became a member of the church there. Developing some eccentric theological views, he eventually taught that the god of the Old Testament was not the true God but rather that the true and higher God had been revealed only with Jesus Christ. He therefore rejected the theology of the Old Testament. Marcion wrote the Antitheses to show the differences between the god of the Old Testament and the true God. Marcion was excommunicated by the church at Rome circa 144 AD, but he succeeded in establishing churches of his own to rival the orthodox Church for the next two centuries. Marcion is often credited as being first to establish an explicit canon. Marcion's canon consisted of the Gospel, or the Gospel of the Lord, and ten epistles of Paul (not including the pastorals). Marcion's Gospel was apparently a truncated version of Luke with extraneous content underpinning Marcion's theology. F. F. Bruce suggests, "the chief importance of Marcion in the second century lies in the reaction which he provoked among the leaders of the Apostolic Churches. Just as Marcion’s canon stimulated the more precise defining of the NT canon by the Catholic Church, not to supersede but to supplement the canon of the OT, so, more generally, Marcion’s teaching led the Catholic Church to define its faith more carefully, in terms calculated to exclude a Marcionite interpretation." Marcion receives derogatory references from contemporary apologist Justin Martyr and heresiologist Irenaeus of Lyons. We can reconstruct Marcion's writings through the references in Tertullian's Adversus Marcionem and Epiphanius' Panarion.
