His personality is the complete opposite of Thomas's, who calls him vulgar and rude. Although he puts on a tough-guy act, he cares deeply for his mother and sister. As his father had disappeared 10 years before the story-line started, he acts like the man of the house.

Marcus is presented as a fourteen year-old student who loves to fight. He has a reckless and hot headed attitude. He lives with his mother and younger sister Kristy. Marcus meets and fights {{c|Agumon|ds}} in the first episode of the series. When the fight ends in a draw, Agumon agrees to become his partner. Soon afterwards he's recruited as a member of D.A.T.S. As Marcus's partner, Agumon idolizes him and refers to him as his {{nihongo|"aniki"|兄貴}}, a Japanese {{w|colloquialism}} for "older brother," used in this case with the connotation of "boss" as seen in the {{w|Yakuza}}.
   
 
Marcus is one of the few humans shown to fight Digimon by himself, though he still counts on Agumon's help to fight the stronger opponents. Even though other humans can evoke their DNA charges by themselves, Marcus must usually connect a punch on an enemy to do so, subsequently using it to [[digivolve]] Agumon. A few exceptions are seen such as the very first time Agumon reaches a new form after GeoGreymon. Then in Episode 14, where Marcus enabled [[GeoGreymon]] to [[digivolve]] to [[RizeGreymon]] without punching another Digimon. In episode 46, Marcus is never seen punching anyone; instead his emotions of destroying his father/Yggdrasill enabled him to automatically Double Warp Digivolve Agumon to [[ShineGreymon]]. Then in episode 47, where he digivolves ShineGreymon to the Burst Mode without punching an opponent.

Etymologies

Masaru Daimon (大門 大)

Name used in Digimon Savers and related materials. It is also used in the English translation of Digimon World DS.

  • Ja: Daimon (大門?). A Japanese surname meaning "great gate".
  • Ja: Masaru (大?). A masculine Japanese name meaning "great".
  • "Daimon Masaru" is also a pun, as it could be read Daimondai (大門大? lit. "big problem"), appropriate for his hot-headedness and tendency to act before thinking.[citation needed]
Marcus Damon

Name used in the English dub of [Digimon Data Squad]] and related materials.

  • Marcus. Similar to Masaru.
  • Damon. Similar to Daimon.


Story

It should be noted of Marcus's importance to the team: he is often the one to finish a major opponent. Some examples are when he smashed SaberLeomon's fang, blasting his DNA through Belphemon's chest, destroying Craniamon's shield and shattering Yggdrasill's true form. These are all performed from when he punches the opponent with immense strength.

Marcus's DNA Charge seems to possess great potential: the most noticeable moment was in episode 45 when his revelation that his friends believed and trusted him to stop King Drasil/Spencer Damon, it created an aura that protected him from MirageGaogamon's Full Moon Blaster and Rosemon's Forbidden Temptation; instead of hurting him, it simply collided with the aura and propelled Marcus upwards (he had been falling at the time).
