Marze

Marze is a core member of the terrorist group Book of Ruin (Goetia).

He frequently comes into conflict with Will Serfort and his allies in both labyrinths and the central capital of sorcery.

He hides his face behind a coat and mask, concealing his identity even from most enemies.

Despite working in a group, he shows little camaraderie and treats others as tools or nuisances.

His voice actor is Nobuhiko Okamoto.

Within the story’s world, he is regarded as a high-level threat, especially by official magical institutions.

Marze has an extremely foul mouth and a sharp, cutting way of speaking.

He does not soften his words even for allies, mocking and insulting them freely.

He is especially harsh toward the fellow Book of Ruin member known as “Headless.”

Even when working together, he shows no hesitation in verbally abusing this comrade.

His attitude suggests a cynical, condescending worldview.

He gives the impression of someone who trusts power and results far more than people or ideals.

Marze always appears in a long coat and a mask that covers his face.

This outfit creates a cold, menacing aura and makes it difficult for others to read his emotions.

The mask functions as both a disguise and a symbol of his detachment.

By hiding his face, he keeps his true identity, expressions, and possibly his background completely secret from enemies and allies alike.

Marze is depicted as a remarkably powerful sorcerer.

Even upper-ranked tower magicians, who are considered elite in the official magical hierarchy, are effortlessly defeated by him.

His skill set and exact spells are not fully detailed, but the reactions of others make his level clear.

To the institutions of magic, he is not just a nuisance but a walking disaster-class threat.

His confidence, casual demeanor in battle, and habit of mocking opponents further emphasize his superiority.

He operates like someone who rarely meets a foe worthy of genuine effort.

Marze is an antagonist who opposes Will Serfort and his companions across several key locations.

The party encounters him both in dungeons and in the central magical capital, where the world’s sorcerers and institutions gather.

He acts as an active field agent for Book of Ruin (Goetia).

Rather than plotting only from the shadows, he personally enters dangerous zones to complete high-priority missions.

Because he stands in the path of Will’s growth and the safety of the magical world, he functions as a major obstacle and measuring stick for the protagonists’ progress.

His presence raises the stakes of any arc in which he appears.

Marze’s first notable confrontation with Will Serfort’s group occurs inside a labyrinth.

At that time, a secret project was underway: an anti-mage weapon known as “Mage Killer” was being manufactured in secret by an unnamed organization.

The Light Emperor Aaron Masterias Oldking and his allies had already caught the scent of this Mage Killer’s existence.

They were moving to uncover and deal with this hidden threat.

However, Marze was dispatched by Book of Ruin ahead of Aaron’s team.

His mission was to secure and retrieve the Mage Killer before anyone else could interfere.

This set up a tense clash of priorities:

Marze sought to turn the Mage Killer into an asset for Book of Ruin, while Will’s side and Aaron’s faction aimed to stop or control it.

The encounter in the labyrinth showcases Marze’s ruthless efficiency.

It firmly establishes him as someone trusted by Book of Ruin for the most sensitive and dangerous assignments.

Marze is firmly aligned with Book of Ruin (Goetia), a terrorist group that threatens the established magical order.

He appears to be a high-ranking operative, given the importance of the missions assigned to him.

He is partnered at times with a comrade known as “Headless.”

Despite this partnership, he shows almost no warmth, frequently directing biting sarcasm and venomous remarks at Headless.

His enmity extends to Will Serfort and the students and magicians around him.

Their ideological and institutional opposition makes them natural enemies on the battlefield.

He also indirectly clashes with the efforts of Aaron Masterias Oldking, whose role as Light Emperor places him directly against the ambitions of Book of Ruin.

Through these conflicts, Marze becomes a recurring and memorable antagonist within the world of Wistoria: Wand and Sword.
