Marth was introduced in the first ''Fire Emblem'' game, ''[[Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light]]'' for the Famicom console, which was later remade for Nintendo DS as ''{{s|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon}}''. While he was absent from the tangentially-related second game in the series, ''{{s|fireemblem|Fire Emblem Gaiden}}'', Marth's role and place in the story of Archanea was later expanded on in the third game, ''[[Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem]]'', released on the Super Famicom in early 1994. ''Mystery of the Emblem'' featured both a remake of the original game and a continuation of that game's story, and the continued story was itself later remade for Nintendo DS as ''{{s|fireemblemwiki|Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem: Heroes of Light and Shadow}}''. ''Mystery of the Emblem'' was adapted into a [[fireemblemwiki:Fire Emblem (anime)|direct-to-video anime]], which was released in Japan in 1996. It starred {{s|wikipedia|Hikaru Midorikawa}} as the voice of Marth, and he would reprise the role in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. The anime was dubbed in English and released in the U.S. in 1998, and it starred {{s|wikipedia|Spike Spencer}} as the voice of Marth. Marth's name is translated as "Mars" in the anime's English release; it is an alternate reading of his Japanese name.

Marth is the prince of {{s|fireemblem|Altea}}, one of the Seven Kingdoms of the continent of {{iw|fireemblemwiki|Archanea|continent}}. He is descended from the family of a legendary hero, {{s|fireemblem|Anri}}, who once used the "blade of light", [[List of swords#Falchion|Falchion]]<!--In Fire Emblem, it has always been "Falchion", not "THE Falchion"-->, to defeat the sinister dragon-emperor {{s|fireemblem|Medeus}}. Marth is characterized as a courageous, good-natured, and honorable man. He takes his royal responsibilities to his people very seriously, always putting their needs first, no matter how troubled he is by developments in his own personal life. As a leader, he not only cares deeply about his friends and comrades but believes that he could not have achieved anything himself without their support. Later appearances tend to emphasize Marth's determination to save as many people as possible and ensure that none of his comrades die, even in seemingly hopeless situations.
