Biography
The Ninth Doctor made passing reference to Rose Tyler that Marlowe was gay or bisexual, and that the Doctor would be willing to make a pass at him if the situation called for it. (DWM: A Groatsworth of Wit) Marlowe, in fact, flirted extensively with the First Doctor's companion Steven Taylor. (MA: The Empire of Glass)

Marlowe, Edward Kelly, and William Shakespeare were supposedly involved in some trouble with Psionovores invading through a scrying stone. The date and details of the event are unrecorded. (ST: Apocrypha Bipedium)

Though history recorded that Marlowe died in 1593, this was wrong. In fact, Marlowe had traveled to the colony of Roanoke in the future United States to spy on Sir Walter Raleigh. While there, he and the rest of the colony were abducted by the Greld, who would use them in their plan to sabotage the Armageddon Convention. He actually died in 1609 as a result of a duel.
