Din's Mark:

Personality: In this society, Marik is considered a man and as such, Marik acts accordingly because he has no other choice but to act strong and unfaltered. Marik is the type of person to become a role model for younger generations because of his nature, first and foremost Marik is a knight of Hyrule. Being that he is a knight there are certain personality traits that come along with the responsibilities of being a knight however, Marik possesses these traits naturally instead of simply adopting them due to his knighthood. Marik is very kindhearted and would help anybody in need of help. To Marik, helping people is something that should come naturally to anybody as it does the spirit some good, Marik often feels good about his deeds and treats himself to a hefty steak meal which just so happens to be one of his favorite things every, good karma all around! Marik believes in chivalry to a decent extent, he doesn't believe that he is a slave to any women but he does believe that there should be a certain level of respect shown to them instead of disrespecting them since disrespecting anyone gets you nowhere. Marik has very deep and powerful convictions, because of his past Marik has no choice but to force himself to grow up to be a strong and influential figure because he must then travel back across the Sea of Storms which is a task that not many could do as is, once he crosses the sea he must then find his homeland and liberate it from the invaders and because of this task Marik feels like he has no time to mess around or act stupid, foolish or childish. Because of this mentality, Marik does everything at 100% effort and he is someone who will never be seen as a 'slacker' and even has a small reputation which grows with every day for being someone who will one day achieve excellence.

Marik has good people skills, he is not afraid to engage in conversation with complete strangers of enter some sort of situation with strangers where he feels that his assistance is needed or even if he feels like he needs to intervene in the current situation. Marik can assess a person very quickly, it is a quality that he possesses which helps him out a lot. The word 'stranger' is a very vague one to Marik because of this quality to read a person very quickly, Marik can become friends or enemies with someone in a matter of seconds. When Marik becomes friends with someone he can be very friendly and useful immediately, Marik is the type of person where he would die for his friends and even kill for them though when it comes to killing for friends, this would apply in situations of combat where a friend has been seriously injured, captured or even killed. When Marik is forced into a position where he would and will kill for his friends he becomes an enemy that you should have never made, Marik will not even sleep until he has killed whomever it is that he so deeply dislikes that he wants to kill them, that or until his friend is saved because Marik does not believe in killing someone if it is actually unnecessary. When it comes to people Marik dislikes, he tried to avoid contact with them because he believes that 'if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.' Marik dislikes the types of people who constantly feel the need to keep tabs on him because of his success, he dislikes the jealous types of people who wish to be him or even try to be him, there is a difference between true jealousy and admiration to Marik however. To enemies, Marik will become instantly hostile and weary because you cannot always know what your opponent is capable of. Marik isn't opposed to exchanging words with his enemies though he only does this in order to get through the formalities as fast as he can so that they may get down to business.

Motivations:
-Power: As the uncrowned and disenfranchised prince of a land far beyond the Sea of Storms, Marik has nothing but shame that as a mere boy he could not do anything to save his father nor his own land, Marik spends his days with the scene of being forced to flee his own kingdom in his head and it drives him to become stronger to one day take back his homeland.

-Courage: After the traumatizing experience Marik has a young boy, Marik has no fear of many things because he knows that if his resolve falters so will he and he cannot allow that to happen because he must become strong to free his own homeland but before he can do this, he must become strong to defend Hyrule.

Fears:
-Death of friends: Marik himself does not fear his own death, he will die for his cause if he must and he believes that if he is truly meant to help Hyrule and save his own homeland, he will not die. With that said, Marik does fear the deaths of the friends he has made during his time in Hyrule and would die for them in their place if he must.

-Corruption: Marik can see the darkness that has fallen over the lands, the type of darkness that is all encompassing, swallowing up anything that dares to stand in it's way. Marik hopes to be a torch of light to lead people through the darkness but he also fears that his torch might not be bright enough and may be swallowed up in the darkness himself.

History: For all of Marik's young life he was raised as a noble, the heir to the throne of LeVain, a Kingdom far outside of the reach of Hyrule or any other kingdoms, it was one that was across the sea of Storms, something that isn't easily crossed. Similar to Hyrule, LeVain had their own problems with enemies that they dealt with and while Hyrule's hero seems to be a saving grace for them when they need it, LeVain was not so lucky. The empire had fallen and Marik being the direct heir to the throne, was sent away by his father with a hooded figure, someone that Marik had never met before. They sailed across the dangerous Sea of Storms, a journey that proved to be extremely dangerous though the hooded figure would keep telling Marik that he was being watched over by a power much greater than humans, that he would become a great king, a King of King's one day. He was instructed to not talk about his past and to start a new life, grow and learn, become powerful and then one day when he was ready to take back his Kingdom, someone would be sent to him and they would bring him back to LeVain and he would conquer his lands and rule over them.

RP Sample: It was an average day for Marik, he had been enlisted in the Hyrule army as a knight though like all the new members, they didn't get the important jobs and their rank was low. Today Marik was on patrol in the city of Hyrule which would prove to be an easy day, mostly nobles lived there so the crime rate wasn't very high, it wouldn't be likely that Marik would be fighting off any monsters or anything, especially not so close to the castle itself. Marik wore his usual attire with his tattered cape and his blade which rested on his back. Marik strolled through the crowded streets of the trade district by himself, he kept his eye's peeled as they shifted back and forth simply watching over everything that was going on. Marik peered up at the sky with his blue eye's which seemed to match the color of the sky, it was a warm and sunny day with a light gust of wind which would roll through every now and then cooling the warm air off just a little bit, not enough to make it feel unpleasant however, it was simply a beautiful day.

Taking in a sharp breath and exhaling it, he felt someone bump up against him and walk past him, murmuring "Sorry" lightly as they continued to walk on past him. Marik looked down as the figure walked past him, they were completely cloaked and hooded in a brown cloth, odd he thought since it was such a nice day and nobody really had a reason to hide themselves in Hyrule City, it was a very friendly and safe place. Marik shrugged and started to stroll through the city more, in the direction that the other person had just went, he wasn't exactly following them but that's just where he had already planned on going.
