° Marco is a loud, cocky, rash pirate that shamelessly prioritises his own wellbeing above the law. When out on the sea, he steals supplies from other pirates, as well as some treasures and - on one occassion - a nice coat. His thievery also continues on land, though he isn't really one to steal from those he knows to be less wealthy. This, accompanied by his generally smug demeaner, gets him into a lot of trouble, and his knack for always escaping said trouble with his life has earned him a title amoungst those that know him: "The Luckiest Sea Rat."
° He can't read or write in English, and he's got the Spanish writing comprehension of a 7 year old, but he's relatively fluent in both when it comes to speaking. He loves fishing, swimming, and most water related activities in general, and on occassion, he's known to over-indulge in alcohol when it's available to him. Despite his Big Personality, he can be impressively sneaky, and he's a pretty skilled pick-pocket. His manners and social-etiquette are abismal, though it's more due to ignorance than any intention to be rude. He hates apologising.
° Marco has the kind of personality that grows on you, which doesn't make for many good first impressions, and has resulted in a few (primarily lost) bar fights. He's blunt, boisterous, and pretty dumb - and in the wrong situations, his temper can get the better of him. He does have a softer side, but it only comes out to those he's close with, as well as a hidden people-pleaser nature that's reserved only for people he feels deserve it. He has a lot of walls up and is used to looking out for himself, and while he's not unfriendly, he can be difficult to get to know on a deeper level. On the surface, he's selfish and arrogant, too smug for many peoples taste, and annoyingly ratty; but all he really wants to do is to sail in peace - and maybe get a little drunk in a sea-shanty filled port bar.
° After many years of his youth spent dreaming of the sea, Marco hates being stuck on land for too long, but there are a few people he doesn't mind hanging around a little while for.
Aaralyn Flamehold • [ lover ]
When Marco met Aaralyn, he was almost instantly drawn to her - mostly because, A: she's very pretty, and B: she seemed like she could - and would - kick his ass. As time went on and his romantic pursuits became more serious, her sweet yet strong personality became what truly reeled him in. Sometimes he isn't really sure how to properly handle the love she offers him, but for Marco, she is one of the only two people he holds to the same importance as the sea.
She doesn't seem to know he's a pirate, though - haha, oops!
Adair River • [ friend ]
In the beginning, Marco didn't really like Adair all that much; he thought he was kind of an airhead and was thoroughly convinced he had some kind of 'special needs'. He was also maybe, possibly, just a tiny little bit bitter about how much attention he was getting from Marco's previous companion, Orion, who had decided to remain in their current village to pursue Adair further. After Orion's departure, they became pretty good - though very chaotic - friends.
Orion somefuck • [ ex-best friend/partner ]
Orion was once Marco's travelling companion and closest friend. They met a few years back whilst trying to steal the same boat, and as a result, had been sailing together as partners in crime. Marco had concidered Orion his best and most trusted friend, the only person he had any reason to care about. Despite his strong dislike of living on land, when Orion decided to stay in the village they had become stranded in after their ship crashed, Marco reluctantly chose to remain there with him and support his romantic ventures with the town's airhead, Adair.
As the months went by, Orion grew closer and closer with Adair, but further apart from Marco. Eventually, for whatever reason, Orion left the village and Marco there with it, and their friendship spanning over years has completely soured.
