I think it was more-so the religious worship of a dude that died 3,000 years ago but for some reason you need to live your entire life underground with your abusive father in case that dude ever comes back to life.
That and the forced body engraving carved into your back for said dead dude to read if he ever does come back to life. Stack on an ancient black magic scepter that has the power to control/corrupt people and yeah... Makes sense Marik became the villain. The motorcycle was just symbolic of him wanting to escape his horrible underground life.
