Affiliation: Easton Magic Academy
Occupation: Student
Mash is the series' main protagonist and a first-year student at Easton Magic Academy, where he's assigned to Adler dorm. He's got a distinctive bowl-cut black hairstyle and is pretty average height-wise, usually seen in the standard academy robes. When he's not in uniform, he opts for skin-tight under-armor paired with white shorts.
Here's the thing that sets him apart: Mash was born without a magic mark, which means he literally can't use magic. To keep that secret from getting out, Brad Coleman gave him a fake mark on his left cheek—a cover that's held up so far. Despite this massive handicap in a magic-focused school, Mash compensates through sheer determination and physical strength, and he's become known for taking on way more powerful opponents when his friends or family are on the line.
He's genuinely devoted to the people around him, though fans often note his other defining trait: an almost obsessive love of cream puffs. He'll go to serious lengths to get his hands on them or protect his stash, sometimes getting himself into ridiculous situations in the process.
