Nasal bruise: Most likely, these are more purple than black and are probably small bruises from the primary points of contact of the marker with the skin of your nose. They should slowly improve over about 2 weeks, but will change from black/purple to green to yellow and fade away. You can try putting heat or cold on it to facilitate getting it to fade quicker.
