## Biography

The Hidden Sword, or Marco Benovere, is a neutral and supporting character in the Wonderful World Storyline and is present for most key events such as the battle in the Dark Fortress and has killed many characters on both the Golden Ward team and the Dark Souls gang. He plays the role of a struggling vigilante and only works for the highest bidder in any event.

Little is known about his backstory, however, it is known that he carries around a sword, belonging to a member of the Sacred Union, which may be a love interest he has or may have had. Though it is yet to be fully confirmed by a character. He possesses a rivalry with other duellists such as Master Duellist, Master Swordsman and Escanor. He is skilled with a fencing sword and can deliver large and powerful strikes with ease.

## Appearance

The Hidden Sword dawns a black hat, along with a face mask, or scarf that covers up his identity. His outfit consists of a large black jacket, with red arrows pointing upwards, a common design detail from the Farlands, a place of origin of characters like the Fencer and The Warden. He has a small purple gem located below his neck area, attached to his jumper, with black armour pads on his upper arms, and black gloves to protect his hands. Lower down there is more red and black colour designs and an all black trousers with black and red boots.

## Personality

Hidden Swords personality is very quite, though stern. He doesn't ever joke around, or possibly likes to be seen joking around. He never changes personality to his victims and never says anything unusual, though may be in the case of a job he needs taken care of.

## Combat

### Form 1

Hidden Sword uses Form 1 combat to great extent, even using it when he tries to overtake Fallen Diver, though is quickly neutralised. Form 1 for him involves keeping his distance, and maintaining balance while retreating after every strike. It is not like Form 2, where heavy swings are done, this form is all about light stabs until your opponent wears out.

### Form 5

This form was so difficult for someone like Hidden Sword to pull off, he has to use a variation of it just so he can not tire himself out instantly. Form 5 combat involves many leaps, jumps and getting all over the place to confuse your opponent. Most damage you can do to foes is from your legs, and all about kicking and flailing all over the place, making it impossible for anyone using it to get injured.

### Power And Skills

Hidden Sword has one special ability that he can use against foes. So he is a widely known bounty hunter for using such powerful strengths against inhuman characters.

* **Energy Pulse** - *When in the heat of battle, injured greatly, low on stamina and energy, or just against too many enemies, Hidden Sword can leap back a great distance, keeping to his feet, and then leaps forward head on into the battle again, creating a huge clash and explosion of his own energy. This creates a large light red shockwave, and sends anyone within quite a large radius to be send flying across the battlefield, high into the sky, or just backwards a few meters. They may also sustain injuries when landing too.*
* **Parries** - *His sword allows him to block great hits, countering them while keeping himself away from harm.*
* **Long Reaching Pokes** - *Hidden Sword can stab enemies from great length thanks to his trusty fencing sword.*
* **Secondary Sword** - *If he is only knowing he is about to lose, he can pull his Sacred Sword from his back. One slice from that sword can apparently kill any living thing instantly, though no one knows if it's for certain. No creature has actually lived to see it themselves.*
