Marth Dovah-Grin.  A name that one pokémon came up on his own.  He is the son of Arceus and Mew.  Despite this however, he doesn't have an easy life.  In fact, he had to face many evil teams, powerful foes, and even corrupt deities.  He travels throughout the Omniverse, always on a adventure.

Origins

When Marth was born as a mew with an arceus wheel on his back, his parents were lost on a name and he came up with one himself.  Marth.  No title to it.  For a year, Marth was taught by his parents on the very basic use on aura, and the basic elemental attacks.  When his meema thought he was ready, she and him went out into the world and was teaching him how to transform into a human so that he could blend in with them and reduce the risk of getting captured.  However, Marth ended up copying the human DNA and added it to his own, instead of simply mimicking it.  This made him effectively part human.

Around that time he heard a mental cry and went to the source.  What he found was shocking, and surprising, and it also angered him.  He saw a delphox beating up a braixen.  He saw red and attacked the delphox to the point of killing the fox.  He was pretty shaken up by his first kill when he regained his senses, but was even more so that one pokémon tried to murder another.  It took everything he and his meema had to heal the braixen.  Marth and the braixen, who he called Micaiah, ended up falling in love.  A crush of sorts.  And she has been with him as his first mate (just soulmates at the time) ever since.

When Marth was two, he saw a poacher was attacking his meema.  When she was nearly captured, he knew what to do in an instant, he dealt with the poacher, unlocking his Silver Aura in the process.  He was a bit traumatized and didn’t want to leave his meema’s side for a bit.

To his surprise, he was the Silver Soul.  He met the manifestation of the silver aura called Silver.  She trained him to the ground so that he could handle of the power of the Silver Aura.

Arceus knew that Marth would be targeted by evil organizations.  As such, he became a pokémon professor by the name of Professor Alpha.  He was able to get Marth a pokédex and register him as a pokémon trainer so that no one would suspect him when he is with his mates but has no pokéballs.

When he was five, he heard an explosion and went to check on what it was, he found a latias, with gold feathers instead of the usual red, that was nearly dead and he took her to the nearest pokémon center.  That same night, he found himself inside the Soul Dew of the latias’ brother.  However, only the latios’ body died, he still have everything else.  To save the latios’ soul from being destroyed, he bonded his soul to his.  The two’s souls and lives became linked, and one couldn’t be without the other.

When he woke up the next morning in a room to the pokémon center, he saw that the latios was out.  But he had been turned into a hybrid.  As it turned out, he was able to leave the soul dew, but couldn’t stay out forever.  He called the latios Chrom, and the latias, who he called Lissa, joined him.

He knew that he won’t be able to heal others with aura, so he asked Nurse Joy to teach him about medical care for pokémon incase he was on the road and he was too far to a pokémon center.  He ends up with an Audino as a partner while he was working with Nurse Joy at the pokémon center, the audino ended up joining him when he finished.  Nurse Joy gave him a medikit that has enough room for all sorts of medical supplies and equipment.

He made a assistant AI at age seven which are in his computer headphones.  He knew that there will be some things where even he cannot do.  This AI is named Omni, and is his tech assistant, able to go to any of Marth’s devices.  The only one that could rival Marth himself when it comes to programing.

When he was eight years old, he came across a zoroark with an egg that was being chased by a hunter.  He ended up killing the hunter.  When he went to the zoroark however, she was frightened.  He did everything he could to comfort her.  After she shared his past with him about her last trainer, he became distrustful of humans after that.  

Throughout his childhood, he made plenty of new friends in pokémon.  Even though he trains them, he also learns things from them as well.

New power

When Marth was ten, he was training with Giratina, alongside her daughter, Shi-hime.  When he made contact with a Griseous Orb, he ended up absorbing it.  When he did, he ended up in a conflict with a dark side of his.  After a long battle, he defeated his dark side, he didn’t kill him however.  The dark side turned out to be a manifestation of what is known as Shadow Power, a power that let’s Marth have control of shadows and antimatter.

Because he absorbed the orb, he would have to be Shi-hime’s mate.  He is also forced to stay up during every full moon with his own shadow appendages and tattoos out.  While he still has that affectionate personality, he retains a dark and sadistic streak that he shows to anyone that does anything like

At some point, he took up crafting.  He made two swords, several guns of various types, and even made the dragonscale armor that he wears today.  While working with weapons, he found out that he could use his aura to shoot bullets without needing to reload them.  Of course, he found out quickly that he couldn’t fire them as fast as he wants, and that they had a limit powerwise.

When he saw Bayonetta fighting, he ended up basing a speed style on her, finding that he could do some of the same things that she could.  Though, during the few years he has been working on such a style, he has been having dreams about a strange pokémon.

Shadows, Corruption, Depression.

At one time, there were a group of people that nearly killed his first mate, Micaiah.  He was then filled with hate, rage, anguish, and dread, and doors to his heart began closing, and be became shrouded in dark shadowy aura.  He killed off the men responsible for her ‘death.’  But even after doing so, he couldn’t stop the doors from closing.  His mates tried to calm him down, but he ended up lashing out at them.

Soon he able to stop his doors from being closed when Micaiah was back up and alive again.  However, he fell into a severe and deep state of depression when he found out that he attacked his mates.  He stayed secluded from everyone for a long time.

While he was depressed, everyone he ever cared about tried to talk to him, but he refused everyone’s help in fear that he would loose control like he did again.

Eventually, he met a manifestation of his Shadow Aura.  One he calls Diablo.  Diablo was ready to take over Marth’s body, but before he could do anything, he was striped of his strength and was used as a punching bag as Marth unleashed all the fury and anguish upon him.

Soon, after that was all over and Marth wasn’t as depressed, his mates tried to make it better.  Soon, Marth was able to ease back into his normal self again.  As well as he could anyway.  The darkness still harbors in his heart, but he tries his best to keep it from taking control of him

Marth’s clone

One day, team Rocket got a hold of his and his meema’s DNA, and they ended up setting up two different experiments, both away from each other.

Marth saw a strange pokémon in his dreamscape.  However, it was very scared until it saw him.  Eventually, Marth found a team rocket base with the same pokémon.  He felt a presence similar to his own coming from that same pokémon.  He freed the pokémon and escaped with her.

He came to know the pokémon at Mewtwo, a clone of mew.  He soon found out that the reason he felt the familiar presence was that his own DNA was used in the process of creating her.  He dubbed her as Lucina.

As of current...

As of right now, he currently travels the omniverse, having already found lasting peace in his world.



Personality

Marth has many personalities, though which one that is used at the time is dependant on the situation.

Most of the time he is distant.  Due to being in multiple wars, he has a distrusting personally that he shows.  Though he is friendly to those he can consider his true friends.  He protects them with his life.  He is attached to his friends.  But his mates he keeps closer to him.

While he does show a dark and rude exterior to others, he does show his warm and loving side to those he can trust.

While quite smart and intelligent, he isn’t perfect.  He may make a mistake or two from time to time, though it rarely happens.


Forms

“I prefer my human or hybrid form as it feels more natural.”

Marth has a human form with fairly toned skin.  He is usually 5 ft. He wears a black shirt with a delta symbol where the left side is red, the right side is blue, and the inside of the delta is filled white.  He wears black shorts, as well as black shoes with gold laces.  His hair looks scaly like a dragon’s, but the tuffs of hairs right above his ears looks like latios ears.  He also has demonic red eyes with dragon slitted pupils.  He also has a necklace with a soul dew on it, he keeps it hidden often.

When he uses his shadow power, tattoos come onto his body.  One spot on the back with six lines  ending in red arrows to make it look like the shadow appendages of Giratina.  Two go around his neck and over his shoulders, pointing at his belly button.  Two more reaches from the back of his shoulder, across the side of his arms, and finally stops on the back of his hands.  The last two go from the bottom of his back, down his legs, and  then to the top of his feet.

When his shadow power goes to level two, the neck rings that are on Giratina’s body appears around Marth’s own, and the face mask that’s on Giratina’s head appears on Marth’s head like a crown.  His eyes also start glowing non-stop.

In his hybrid form, he has the same figure as his human form, but he has fur running along his upper body up to his neck, as well as to his knees.  The same delta that was on his shirt in human form, is now on his chest.  He also has feathers on his arms, looking like arm gauntlets, which also extend, looking like jet wings.

His mew form, which is also the form that he was born with, was a bipedal cat with rabbit-like feet and a long tail with an opelucid tip at the end. He has black fur and red eyes instead of pink fur and baby-blue eyes like his meema.


Family

Marth has two sisters that he knows of.  A mew named Peach, and an arceus names Palutena.

He also has a soul brother named Chrom.  While not brothers by blood, they are brothers by soul.

He also has a harem of pokémon mates, his first ones being Micaiah the Braixen/Delphox, and Lissa the Latias.

He and one of his mates, Shadow the Zoroark, take care of a child, Illusius the zorua.  Illusius isn’t Marth’s child by blood, but he is her adoptive father.


Powers

“You have to learn to control it.  Before it controls you.”

As Marth was young, he was taught the basics of aura, as well as the basic aura manipulation needed to use the weakest of attacks such as Ember.  As he got older, he was taught how to use elemental aura, which affects the damage the aura can deal to an opponent.  (Ie. Fire aura being able to deal super effective damage to an opponent.

He discovered that he was the Silver Soul, and as such, he can use the Silver Aura.  While it is more powerful than regular aura, it is very taxing on him when he uses it.  Though hard and intense training, he learned to use the aura without tiring himself out.  (Though there are exceptions.)

He got his shadow power when he touched the Griseous Orb that’s within him now.  He found that he could manipulate his own shadows, as well as the shadow tattoos on his arms.  He was taught by the original giratina how to use it.

His shadow aura, however, is one he needs to be careful using.  If he doesn't keep his emotions in check, he risks losing control of himself.  


Weapons

“Weapons?  Ha!  I got those in spades!”

Marth made his own blades, poured his heart and soul into these weapons.  The blades have a black blade, an arceus wheel as the hilt with two unique mega stones embedded in them.  The mega stones themselves have a dark and grayscale color scheme.

He also has his aura weapons, which use up the wielder’s aura.  He mainly uses pistols when he wants to fight like Bayonetta, and sniper rifles when he wants to take down enemies from far distances.

He also had a wand that he used for special attacks before he gave it to Micaiah.


Armor

“I don’t really wear armor all that much.  But when I do, I prefer speed over protection.”

As of right now, Marth wears dragonscale armor.  As the name implies, it has dragonscales, to be more specific, it was made from his own shedded dragonscales.


Costumes

“These clothes don’t serve any practical purpose.  They do look nice though.  Hey don’t look at me like that.  I’m not a pikachu with a cosplay ability.”

In his early life when he was turned into a hybrid, he had regular clothes, a black shirt, black shorts, black shoes.  Very plain, but he likes the color black.  He adopted the delta when he was turned into a lati hybrid due to the soul bond.  The silver laces came when he learned how to use Silver Aura.  The arm and leg warmers, along with the weights underneath, came when he physically trained himself past his limit.

He always has a black tuxedo with a red inside, along with a headpiece gear that looks like the face mask of Giratina.

When he found out about how his clothes and his pokémon’s look can change when he uses Synchro Evolution, he found various clothing.  Though, they don’t serve any useful purposes:

With Micaiah, he adopts a mage’s clothing that looks alot like a delphox’s fur, only the chest area was black instead of white, and the cloud symbols are blue.


Misc/Trivia

He was named after the Hero-King, Marth, Prince of Altea.

Dovah-Grin, Marth’s last name, means Dragon Bond in Dovahzul.

Marth can understand and speak three languages: English, Dovahzul, and feral pokéspeech.

He has headphones that has an eye-piece and a micro supercomputer built in.

While he can’t really die, being a demigod, his body can still die, but it can respawn over time.  The only way for him to truly die is through a soul death.

When he dies, so does his soul brother, Chrom.  Same can be said the other way around.  When this is a normal death, his and Chrom’s beings are sucked into the very soul dew that binds them together.  They will be let out when someone uses a revive item on the soul dew, or when enough time has passed.


Vore

Marth is always a prey.  He is never the predator.  He never likes the idea of eating someone alive, but for some reason enjoys being eaten alive.

Due to his aura being a natural shield for his body, he can not be digested.  The most anyone would get out of trying to digest him would be nutrients from his sweat and excess substance he has at the time.  

The only way he could be digested is if his soul was eaten by the same predator.  Even then he always reforms.  Though when digested, he seems to be stuck in the prey’s mind until he is reformed.

My god, this is a lot of info.  I certainly put a lot into this character.

Now this character may seem powerful, but he's not all-powerful.  Nor is he unbeatable (even though he is hard to beat).  In battle, it's up to you to figure out his weaknesses.

I changed his bio a bit.  As I am still fleshing out his character though his origin story, this may change a bit.
