'''Mars''', also known as '''Mars the Illusionist''', is one of the [[the Seven|Seven]], and the Vanguard of [[Flos|Flos Reimarch]].
== Appearance ==

=== Illusionary Form: ===
With the help of her magical items, Mars is capable of casting an illusion over her body, resulting in a drastic change of appearance. She has long, bouncing red curls of hair, very big breasts, a slender frame and unscarred skin. She carries a massive round shield, which is strapped to her back, and a sword at her hip.<ref name="2.22 K">[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/05/05/2-00-k/ Chapter 2.22 K]</ref>

=== True Appearance: ===
Without making use of her "trinkets", she has a shorter, thicker figure and flat chest, with pale skin, a face that is a bit plain with a few faint freckles, a nose that is a bit snubbed, and brown hair. Moreover, she wears  armor that is grey, with a visor helmet on her head.<ref name="4.05 K">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/01/23/4-05-k/ Chapter 4.05 K]</ref>

== Personality ==
Mars is boisterous and relaxed in manner. She is insecure about her own appearance, as she never shows it in public, and instead prefers to cast illusions to make herself look attractive. Otherwise, she is quite ostentatious. Mars is very confident in battle, and is always itching for a fight. Similar to the other members of the Seven, she is devoted to Flos. 

When battling, she wishes that her enemies would surrender so that she doesn't have to slaughter them.  

More TBA From [https://wanderinginn.com/2021/11/21/8-53-fh/ Chapter 8.53 FH] 

== Background ==
Mars was born in Nerrhavia's Fallen and became a  [Gladiator] in their arenas.  She conquered the Coliseum of Monarchs, their most high-level arena, and became known as the Eternal Gladiator. <ref name=":0">[[Chapter 8.53 FH]]</ref> 

When warring with Reim, Nerrhavia's Fallen sent her to fight Flos and his forces. He lost the duel against her and was forced to run. In Flos's own words, "It got hairy," until Mars decided to switch sides and became one of his vassals.<ref>{{VERef|10.12 H (Pt. 1)}}</ref> 

Mars would be at the head of every charge, and crush the opposing army’s champion before each battle.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/01/20/4-04-k/ Chapter 4.04 K]</ref>

She has incredible amounts of stamina and can fights entire armies alone for hours. <ref name=":0" />

== Chronology ==

== Powers and Abilities ==
Mars can't do any magic, however she possesses numerous magical items.<ref name="2.22 K" /> She is a pure warrior, and an oustanding one at that. However, while it is true that she excels in combat, she is lacking in many other areas, making her rather inflexible. As a result, she is often employed only at specific times.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/01/20/4-04-k/ Chapter 4.04 K]</ref>

=== Classes/Levels: ===
*[Vanguard] Lv. 66<ref name="2.22 K" />

=== Skills: ===
* [Call of the Champion]
* [Grand Slash]
* [Phoenixflame Draw]
* [Power Strike]
* [Six-fold Grand Slash]
* [Speed of the Striking Viper]

== Equipment ==
* Massive Round Shield<ref name="2.22 K" />
* Sword curved like a scimitar but double-edged and glows purple in the light.<ref name="2.22 K" />
* Several Magical Items<ref name="2.22 K" />
* Bag of Holding<ref name="2.22 K" />
* Ring that can change her appearance by twisting it.<ref name="4.05 K" />
== Trivia ==
* At level 66, Mars was the second highest level warrior on [[Chandrar]]. With [[Torreb|Torreb's]] death,<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.59 O}}</ref> she is now the highest.
*Mars is the highest-level of Flos's Seven.<ref name="2.22 K" />
* According to [[Trey]], Mars's illusionary form looks exactly like a supermodel altered in photoshop or out of an anime or video game, which is to say, stylized, unrealistic perfection of the female form…according to males.
*Mars is not her real name, but rather the name she chose for herself.<ref name=":0" />
* Her pale skin is from a lack of sunlight.
* So far only three people had ever dueled Mars and lived after she used [Call of the Champion].<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/09/16/7-47-k/ Chapter 7.47 K]</ref>
