Mainyu Mazda (nicknamed Double-M) was an infamous Middle East black market dealer who was known for killing whoever crossed him, including one of his wives. With each person he personally killed, he would have an M tattooed around his neck. When Albie walked in his office, Mainyu Mazda told him that he would sometimes get this tattoo in advance before he had actually killed someone, which foreshadowed Albie's impending demise at the hands of the treacherous Mainyu. Mainyu claims to have no loyalty to the Global Community, only serving them by bringing them bodies of the disloyal for bounty money. His mark of loyalty was faked, but not very well, since it had 72 rather than 216, which is the region number of his home in the United Carpathian States. He said that if he got the mark to whom that he is loyal, he would get "1" because he tended to look out for "numero uno". He became the number one black marketeer in the Middle East after Albie left the business after becoming a believer, and the death of the other, reportedly at the hands of Mainyu himself.
When Albie came to visit him to purchase help in bugging the Global Community's new center of administration in Al Hillah since the Global Community's leadership evacuated New Babylon due to the debilitating effects "plague of darkness", Mainyu squeezed Albie for everything he had in order for him to afford the cost of the deal. Then, intending to take the money all for himself, and eager to earn bounty money, Mainyu shot Albie and made it look like he committed suicide. It is unknown what happened to him afterward.
