personality marlowe is incredibly shy, and as such tends to stay quiet and keep away from crowded areas. however, despite his reserved nature, he's very loyal and loving, and will go to any lengths for those he truly cares about, but he always gets attached -- breaking his heart certainly isn't difficult. he's easily frightened and is extremely apologetic whenever he scares others, which is somewhat often, due to the fact that he moves very quietly. he's actually surprisingly opinionated, but holds himself back from voicing his thoughts -- he normally leaves the room when a heated argument arises so he doesn't say anything he could potentially regret. he's also very self-conscious of his body, from his height to his long hair to his burns and his missing arm, and tries to cover up as much as possible, or curl in on himself to make himself seem smaller. marlowe has a very fragile mindset, so he subconsciously tries to distance himself from people so he doesn't get hurt. it never works, really.
background/biography marlowe's horrid luck started from day one. he was born in a london slum in 1787, and his mother died in childbirth. his father, left to take care of a son alone, resorted to theft for food and money. he was caught, arrested and sentenced to death when marlowe was 3. authoraties apathetically sent him to a run-down orphanage and told him he would be safe there. of course, he wasn't. the caretakers were horrible people who should never have been let near children. they would force the children to work in factories like others, but instead of keeping the money they earnt, it all went to those who "took care" of them, who would then use it for their own gain. oh, but it didn't end there. if the children ever so much as breathed out of line, they were beaten, and marlowe, being a loud and outspoken child, got it the worst of them all. there was no such thing as "friends" to them, and so marlowe took the only way out he could think of. he snuck into one of the caretakers' rooms, and stole a revolver of theirs, putting it to his head. he wanted to pull the trigger and end it. and of course, they caught him before he could do so. in their rage, they set him alight; dousing him in gasoline, throwing a match on him and watching him burn.
he was 12 when he was thrown out onto the streets of london, the entire right side of his body charred beyond recognition.
the next 2 years passed in a blur of pain, tears and labour. he found a factory who would take him on for a penny a day, and worked in horrid conditions until he was 14, when his curse came back to haunt him. he was in an accident, the likes of which had been seen many times before. his right arm got caught in a steam-mechanism, the gears ripping away at his skin and bone as he could to nothing but scream.
he was 15 when he got used to waking up with one less limb.
he was 16 when he finally, finally died.
london certainly hadn't learned from their last encounter with the black death. people still lived cramped lives, packed, like sardines in a can, from wall to wall, building to building. thousands of people died. marlowe was just one of them.
at least, he was supposed to be.
when he opened his eyes in a hospital in 1934, he was told he'd only been in a coma for 3 months, due to a bad accident on a farm. he was discharged with a warning to take care, and continued to wander the countryside for the next 50 years, never aging a day past his 16th birthday. he caught wind of a magic school, somewhere in the world, when he settled down for the night with a band of gypsies. they told him to go there, to learn about himself. so he went, to find out what the hell had happened, what he was, why he had lived for hundreds of years and never died, no matter how much bad luck he encountered. he wanted to know why he, of all people, had been cursed. it never occurred to him that anyone else would have died where he had lived. maybe his luck isn't so bad after all?

magic type tychokinesis/the ability to manipulate luck/probability -- marlowe can do a range of things relating to luck. whether it be projecting his horrible luck unto those he dislikes, or lending some good fortune to the ones he loves, he can affect almost any kind of probability. however, the more good luck he gives out, the worse his own luck gets. if his bad luck gets too much, he can give some to someone else, but it always makes him feel awful, so he prefers not to use his powers at all and focus more on general magic.
body type very tall and very, very thin, to the point where he's more than a little bit underweight. his right arm is amputated at the elbow, and he had burns on about 40% percent of his body, from the right side of his face to his upper right leg, and all across his back.
clothing baggy clothes mostly, because they don't easily show how skinny he is. most of his clothes are torn or dirty, though, due to his horrid luck.
voice kakihara tetsuya as yamanobe mio | 1. 2. 3. | marlowe's voice is high-pitched, airy and quiet. he rarely ever speaks loudly, and most people are surprised when he first talks to them as his voice doesn't suit his outwards appearance. he also has a bit of a stutter.
