[ Physical Description ]
[Descriptions]:
Tattoos: There is very little in the way of ink markings on his body as whole, however on the length of his right wrist, there is four bands that trail upwards. Jet black in color, each one has a diamond shaped symbol that the bands stem from which trail in a horizontal line pattern. While there aren’t any more markings of ink on his flesh, there is room for more to be added.
Scars: Two very prominent scars adorn his face from his very first fight as an Officer of the Garlean Empire. Having pushed his men to advance further into territory that was designated as a space to avoid with heavy artillery, the fresh Decurio marched onward. Seperated from his party, the Decurio’s helmet was crushed by a Roegadyn attacker, barely able to avoid the strike downwards which carved into his face and chest. Though he very rarely shows anyone the length of his back, there are multiple lines of deep scars which give a very clear picture that at one point or time within his training or position as an Officer he was lashed nearly sixteen times in counting. They all are of the same length and width, trailing from his shoulder-blades down to the small of his back. Marius’s flesh is marked with smaller scars from cuts, scratches and things that come naturally from someone who has worked and trained for a majority of their life.
Body: From Garlemald, the aspiring Centurion is the epitome of a well bred, well trained and loyal soldier. Marius’ features are strong with a wide jaw, tapering down into a rounded chin with stubble lining the length of it. Resting atop a strong neck, it sits upon broad shoulders from years of lifting and moving in heavy armor. Solid cords of muscle coil down the whole of his arm with defined veins around his forearm and hand. His body is sturdy and well defined from years of manual labor, training and working for the Empire in both times of peace and war. Unlike many privileged children who are born into wealth with hands as soft as silk, Marius bears hands of callous and roughness, worn by gripping the hilt of a sword and various other tools during his time of basic training.
[Quirks]:
+ Can be seen wringing his hands together during moments of stress, often in his own personal abode or out in the world, never in front of a meeting or when speaking with a higher up.
+ Prone to being sensitive to criticism, due to his up bringing he’s taught to be the best of the best and do everything right. And when he’s called out on doing something wrong, it very easily gets to him.
+ Smells of Vanilla, noted by those that come in close proximity of him. Seems whatever he showers with or wears for cologne smells of it and it lingers on him.v
+ Much to the disdain of others who know him, Marius isn’t exactly stealthy or capable of truly going incognito. His wear is very formal, making many turn an eye to the Decurio as he moves about.
[Skills & Abilities]:
+ Musically talented with the ability to play several different instruments, from the Harpiscord, Cello and the Harp.
+ Well versed in combat and tactics, trained from a very young age to not only earn the commission that was bought for him, but continue to keep it as he grew older and earned his title of Officer.
+ Skilled in combat with a sword, shield, lance, javelin and Magitek equipment.
+ Has the innate ability to manipulate and wield aether, more specifically lightning-aspected aether. Only further enhanced by his time in Eorzea and the abundance of aether in the air.*

[Out of Character notes]:
I am always more than eager to plan for scenes or simply do walk-ups! If you see me out and about RPing, don’t be afraid to interject or join in!
Please do not Meta-game Marius, I know there are a lot of people who will be very respectful and not, but I have met those few who simply wouldn’t take being told against it for an answer.
Thanks for reading! Any helpful critiques, comments and such help!
