1. Titles/Names
Throughout his life, Cross Marian had been associated with many names, which most are better left unsaid. He was a general in the Black Order, a womanizer (according to his idiot apprentice and most people), the devil's incarnate (again, according to his idiot apprentice), drunkard, wife stealer (oh he love this one), a helpless debtor, and so many other names.
He argued to himself that it wasn't his fault. It wasn't his fault that he was just so darn good looking or attractive in that case. The fault lies in the fact that most nice women were married or die quickly. Those husbands shouldn't have blamed him.
No matter how high and mighty he was (according to himself), he needed money to get by. And what could be more convenience than to just borrow the money and run? No one could catch him when he wanted to, not even the Earl.
And the rest? Probably because of his hedonistic behaviors. Pfft, like he cares what others think about him.
All in all, it cultivates to one thing. A bastard (he have his idiot apprentice to thank for this one).
Hey, if he was a bastard, he might as well be the damn greatest bastard in the whole universe. After all, Cross Marian believed in "always try to be the best you can be".
