Personality

Markus's personality is one of generally good disposition, but it can change within a moment's instant depending on the situation. As an Ishgardian national trained as a Knight, Markus follows a somewhat strict moral code based on the Codes of Chivalry, and therefore is loathe to engage in anything he considers morally reprehensible. From day to day, Markus is found to be warm and welcoming to all, particularly friends and loved ones, but is a tad shy and reserved around strangers, and sometimes overly formal around new acquaintances. Markus is known to be quite flowery and poetic in his language (and according to his closest friend and confidant, Leanne Delphium: quite cheesy) but he can also be painfully honest and to the point when necessary. During battle, however- his personality shifts to one of almost cold calculation and cunning, and is of generally untoward disposition to whoever draws his ire, namely enemies, individuals who harm his friends emotionally or physically, and people who wish him harm.

Spoiler notice: The following contains spoiler information about Dravanians. Proceed at your own risk.

To say that Markus is not fond of Dravanians; Dragons and Heretics alike would be an understatement. When Markus was of 7 years of age, his parents Geoffrey and Isolde were killed in a Dravanian raid upon their unit, of which they were the sole casualties.
