Marth

Aperçu

He is the prince of the Kingdom of Altea, located in the western-central region of the continent of Akaneia. Born in the year 588 of the Akaneian calendar, he is the great-grandson of the younger brother of the legendary hero Anri—the founder of Altea—and inherited the divine blade Falchion, the kingdom's heirloom. Although swept up in two major conflicts that shook the entire continent—the "War of Shadows" and the "War of Heroes"—he overcomes these hardships with the support of his many companions. Due to his achievements in war and his subsequent reign, he is known by titles such as "Star-Lord," "Prince of Light," and "Hero-King." He refers to himself as *boku* or *watashi* and addresses others as *kimi* or *anata*. While gentle and mild-mannered, he possesses a strong will and cares deeply for his allies—more so than anyone else. While the first king, Anri, was known as a "Hero of the Individual," Marth is called a "Hero of the Collective"; he excels at attracting people and leading them. Many enemy characters are drawn to his personality and eventually join his cause. Possessing both martial and intellectual prowess alongside exceptional leadership, he embodies the archetype of a student council president. As the inaugural protagonist who defined the *Fire Emblem* series, his characteristics have been passed down to the protagonists who followed him.
