Marc

Marc (マルク) is a fictional character featured in Bladestorm: The Hundred Years' War. He is nicknamed "Iron Wall" due to his ironclad defense in battle.

Role in Game
Marc and his younger brother, Georges are mercenaries that always appear together during battles. They are first introduced through gossip, but the Player soon receives a request to destroy supply carts that are feeding a castle. The player accompanies another mercenary, Magnus, to the site of the carts, which are guarded by Marc and Georges. Regardless of whether the request is completed or failed, Marc and Georges introduce themselves to the player upon returning to the tavern.

Personality
Marc is a much calmer figure than his brother Georges, and often makes excuses for the latter's behavior.

Fighting Style
Marc commands spear units while Georges uses bow units. This arrangement tends to cover each brother's weaknesses fairly well. Only axes or chariots provide an advantage to one without also providing a weakness to the other. And while other units provide neutral advantage to both Marc and Georges, several of them are not available for command in the early stages of the game. Cavalry units are recommended when solely dealing with Marc since he may use the Shield Defense skill to protect himself from melee attacks.
