Marth (Japanese: マルス, Hepburn: Marusu) is a fictional character from the Fire Emblem franchise, developed by Intelligent Systems and owned by Nintendo. He is the protagonist and Lord class character in the first and the third games in the series, Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light, and Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem, as well as their respective remakes, Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.
Marth's first appearance outside of Japan was in the Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem OVA. Marth and Roy's inclusions in Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. series is cited as a reason Nintendo started releasing the games internationally, starting with Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. In December 2020, Marth's original Famicom game and the first installment in the Fire Emblem series was localized and released outside of Japan for the first time to commemorate the franchise's 30th anniversary.
