Mazus is a famed sorcerer, known as far as the [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia]] for his talents. In the past, Mazus was a student of [[Crowley]] but as his talents grew, Mazus also began to wish to surpass his teacher. At one point in the past, Crowley and Mazus fought, using so much magical power that they leveled three mountains and made it rain for an entire week. | Mazus is a famed sorcerer, known as far as the [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia]] for his talents.

Bursting with self confidence, Mazus readily proclaimed himself a great and powerful sorcerer and certainly held the ability to back up his words. He was also considered annoying and inconsiderate of his surroundings. | Bursting with self-confidence, Mazus readily proclaimed himself a great and powerful sorcerer and certainly held the ability to back up his words. He was also considered annoying and inconsiderate of his surroundings. His rivalry with Crowley was also one-sided. Crowley had little interest in such matters. | ||
Before he moved to the [[Tinto Mines]], Mazus was spotted in [[Greenhill Forest]], he attempted to create a sea of fire to test the results of his training.

The resulting inferno would have been catastrophic, but thankfully the spell failed. Mazus would be discovered by the [[New State Army]] in the Tinto Mines during the [[Dunan Unification War]]. | ||
There, Mazus was "letting his thoughts flow" which he declared to be the true path to magic. He was convinced to go out into the world by [[Hero (Suikoden II)|the hero]], joining the New State Army as an excuse to test out his magical abilities. He had also heard Crowley had made his return and so was determined not to be outdone by his rival. | |||

Thanks to his fame, some young women asked him for love potions, much to his chagrin. He also continued to further his magical experiments, albeit recklessly, potentially putting [[New State Army Headquarters]] at risk. | ||
After the Dunan Unification War, Mazus set off for the [[Toran Republic]] in order to battle Crowley once more. | After the Dunan Unification War, Mazus set off for the [[Toran Republic]] in order to battle Crowley once more. | ||

==Trivia== | |||
* Just as [[Crowley]] was named after a real-life British mystic, Aleister Crowley, Mazus was inspired by Aleister's real-life teacher, Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers. Like their Suikoden counterparts, Crowley and Mathers would also fall out over time. | |||
