Mini Bio: Steven Grant is an alter for the character/hero Marc Spector/Moon Knight. Marc has a condition known as Dissociative Identity Disorder, meaning he has several personalities, one of whom is Steven.
He first came into being when Marc was a child and has been with him ever since. Steven has amassed a fortune over the years through certain investments and business ventures, making him a millionaire. He owns a mansion and has used his fortune to help Marc create weaponry to help fight crime. Generally, he leaves the crime-fighting to Marc and instead focuses on the business side of their life.

And that’s all I have on Steven Grant, I will be doing other profiles for Marc, and any other relevant personalities, in the coming weeks, but I wanted to start with Steven, as he’s who we’re mostly following throughout this first episode. I would have made posts for everyone today, but where’s the fun in taking the mystery out of things?
