always history obsessed, likes learning about death so he knows how to cope with the loss of it (and it works)
personality
mars enjoys acting out his own imagined destined role; that of some darkness-aligned being, feasting and overwhelmed with joy from the very fact that he is one with the "darkness" he loves so much. while it is an act he keeps up at most time because of the joy it provides him, it can be interrupted when he's either made quickly flustered, emotional, or if the situation calls for it.
his 'darkness' is not referring to just absence of light. to mars, it represents not just a collection of aesthetics (though he appreciates it greatly), but a way of approaching the world. as his understanding of the world comes through it, it contains his thoughts on a multitude of things; from his own morality to what it takes to order the perfect pizza (i just wanted to come up with something to show how drastic it is. in the end he is just a funny little guy who i like :)
traits
history knowledge in general
once in a blue moon can give really good advice you just have to translate through the marsspeak
crossdresses and kills it. can braid well because of it
trivia
his favorite food to snack on is granada. his least favorite type of food is very salty
he unfortunately does not sleep much.
hobbies r reading about history, crocheting, and his darkness tbh
the thing that consistently annoys him the most is his height. sorry king
he keeps a list of all the titles he wants to use for himself in his journal
he likes being in the dark, fuzzy things, and big fonts
he dislikes milk, getting wet, and dirty things
his necessities are makeup, earrings, and his gloves
he will end up needing glasses even though he is a marksman. sorry again king
deals with stress by rubbing crown’s grip or rubbing the corner of his jaw
to add onto his sleeping schedule, he is generally only able to sleep in small spaces (though as he trusts more people this will change)
one thing mars wants to do in his life is have the time to observe the world and maybe even be a teacher to someone
mars is right handed but is practicing using his left hand because he thinks it’s cooler
one of mars’ strengths is his consistency
one of mars’ weaknesses is his difficulty connecting with people
his ideal type of day is a warm night

d gray man
name: mars tacenda
age: 20
occupation: exorcist
personality: the same :)
former bookman's apprentice. lived thanks to intervention of the black order, who learned he was able to synchronize with the innocence crown of thorns. he was allowed to join on the condition that any and all memories he had relating to the bookman organization were wiped, which the black order agreed to do. while not sure why, mars is aware something is wrong about his memories which leads to not good times for him unfortunately. the habits he had as a bookman and ways his body reacted are things he can not remember anymore
INNOCENCE: Crown of Thorns. It takes the form of a silver pistol with etchings of barbed wire across the whole weapon. It does not require bullets (though mars lies about this) to fire, as they come from the innocence itself. The gun can warp to be more spiky when it comes to Mars' emotional state or the danger the Innocence senses around him, whether Mars believes it or not. As he gains a higher synchronization rate, he will unlock new abilities for it, such as barbed wire to bind his opponents.
