Mr. Ishtar

Mr. Ishtar is the father of Marik Ishtar and the adoptive father of Odion Ishtar.

History
Mr. Ishtar and his wife adopted Odion after he was abandoned as a baby. Mrs. Ishtar sadly died giving birth toMarik. Her husband showed no sadness about this because he now had an heir. He would later go on to sadistically carve up his son,s back in an ancient ritual, and the anger and hate Marik felt towards his father would eventually form Yami Marik. Mr. Ishtar was eventually killed (or sent to the Shadow Realm in the English dub) by his son's dark side.
