Marie

Marie (マリー) is a character in Bladestorm: The Hundred Years' War. She is Philippe le Bon's assistant who is in charge of maintaining order amongst his ranks.

Role in Game
Marie is first seen accompanying her lord in his mission to quell the uprising at Flanders. She expresses her concerns regarding Phillipe's kind nature and willingly assumes the role of villain to aid him. Should players help the wool merchants in Flanders secure their trade route with the English, Marie will attempt to attack them in the tavern only to be stopped by the barkeep.

At the Battle of Ghent, she sends the mercenaries out to charge ahead while the French knights remain behind. She does this without her lord's knowledge and to the distaste of many of the mercenaries who feel like they were used to carry out most of the work that is usually the responsibility of the knights.

However, despite her questionable decisions, her assistance is always helpful in achieving Philippe's victories.

Personality
Marie is an austere woman, who maintains her stern personality no matter the circumstance. Despite her frigid disposition, her primary concern seems to be her lord's welfare. Her loyalty to him is steadfast and Phillipe tells her that he cannot hope to achieve peace without her at his side.
