FE PoR: Makalov Character Profile (P. 93) Translation

This post is part of my ongoing translations of the Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance Memorial Book: Tellius Recollection (Vol 1). 

This post is a character profile of Makalov (P. 93)

You can find every translation I’ve done on this book so far on the compilation post here!

Original scans/Japanese are not posted, but are available by request.

As you can imagine, the process of doing all this (scanning, editing, translating, etc) takes a lot of time, and I am unemployed…so if you like what I did, then…

A mercenary knight from Begnion. Marcia’s older brother.
With a self-indulgent and careless attitude, he is the complete opposite of Marcia. He amassed a great debt from gambling, and was employed as a guard for a slave trader to help pay it off.
He is shown to lack common sense when it comes to gambling, as if addicted. He frequents gambling dens and never learns his lesson despite losing over and over again. At the very least, he has great will-power. His personality often leads to trouble, but he is not a bad person at his core. Rather, he is portrayed as one who just follows his convictions (or his basic desires, rather).
While he seems to not be too self-conscious about how much trouble he causes his little sister, he expresses his true feelings on the matter if he falls in battle.
