Marco Lasso

Marco is the defacto leader of the X-Laws, only overruled by Iron Maiden Jeanne. He orginates from Sicily,Italy.

Personality
Like most other of the X-Laws, Marco is extremely loyal to Jeanne, and will stop at nothing to achieve what he believes will bring about Jeanne's ideals of a world free of corruption and evil. Like Jeanne, he tends to see issues in black and white; either something is good or evil. Those who join the X-Laws are considered good and those who do not are automatically evil and with Hao Asakura. When he first appeared he seemed very gentle, but later as commended by Luchist he lacks flexibility which in turn, makes him annoyed and angry about the smallest things. The only thing that can calm him down seems to Jeanne. He heavily believes in discipline, to the degree where he punches Lyserg when he is up late. In the manga he also have a tendency to give people several death sentences.

Abilities and Powers
As a human he has above the average strength, as seen when he can wound Lyserg by just slapping him. He also seem capable of using his handgun for a sort of fencing style as seen when he is fencing with Luchist. How capable he is, is not known as Luchist quickly subdued him. As a shaman he is not gifted with much more powers than any one else of his level. As explained by Luchist it would seem he can create a more powerfull spirit by using his own battle uniform instead of his X-Laws uniform.

Spirit

 * See More: Michael

His spirit is the one of the Archangel Michael. It is originally a 92 Red Ferrari Testarossa, a car that was so inportant to Marco that it gained a spirit. It uses the medium of a bullet fired by a 9mm modified Beretta 93R with a longer barrel. Like all other archangels it has the ability to shatter souls.

Glasses
Even thought of his lack of "flexibility" he still carries an extra pair of glasses in his shoulder armour. It would appear that his glasses are bulletproof as seen when one of the Ten Patch judges tries to impale Lyserg only to have his attack stopped by the glasses. Even thought they appear to be bulletproof, they were still shattered by Luchist colt when he hit them, meaning that they are not resiliant to larger impacts.

Chibi Marco-Chan and Luchist Lasso
Marco was raised by the reverend Luchist Lasso, during that time he was bullied and very intolerant. Towards the present time is Marco still grateful for his upbringing; it was because of Luchist, who allowed him to learn ballet and took him to car shows and he allowed him to go to the university and helped him create his own car company. Marco was also gratefull to Luchist for creating the X-Laws. Later when Marco became an adult, he and Luchist, when they went to eliminate Hao, met Jeanne. At that time she was nothing but an orphan born with shamanic powers. They raised her, turning her into a savior and a holy person, making her believe that she was destined to destroy all evil. At some point, because he loved his car so much, the "supercar", a Lamborghini Countach LP400, of Luchist gained a spirit that was somehow turned into the first Archangel Lucifer. Later the same happened to a car, a 92 Red Ferrari Testarossa, of Marco that was turned into the Archangel Michael. During this time Marco owned a car company named "Super Marco" that dealt with sport cars. At a time when Marco's company was on the verge of creating their very own sports car, Hao came and and took eveything away from Marco. For some unknown reason, Luchist decided to join up with Hao after this event. It was at this time that Marco took over the X-Laws.

Present Story
Marco was first seen when Yoh wanted to talk with the defeated Boris only to find him impaled by the sword of the Archangel Michael. When questioned what it was, Marco revealed himself and announced the name of his spirit: Michael, who carries the sword of punishment, Michael then shatters the soul of Boris, leaving nothing behind. As the other six X-Laws appear, Marco starts to preach about justice and the X-Laws and their mission to destroy the root of evil, which they believe to be Hao, and that for this reason they have joined the Shaman Fight. Ren then noted that he saw them at the opening ceremony and on the Patch Jumbo Jet. Marco continues to announce his name and tries to befriend Yoh, stating that they came because of two of Hao's "underlings" came to the cave and that they believed that Yoh and his gang wouldn't be able to defeat them alone. He then explains that every member of the X-Laws has suffered by Hao's hand and are therefore bonded together by their common goal to defeat him. During this Ren and Bason discuss that they have met a powerful enemy. At this time Zang Ching and Mohammad Tabharish appear, Tabharish mocks their powers, saying that they won't gain anything from recruiting losers. Marco notes that they aren't taking them seriously, noting that they are missing one man. Tabharish informs them that he is busy with something else, at which point that man, "Big Guy" Billy, appears from behind the X-Laws with his spirts of what appears to be footbal players. Marco analyzes his spirits and informs the reader that they are Billy's deceased teammates, who were lost in an accident. Announcing that there will be no pardon for thoses who ally with Hao and informing Bill that he deserves capital punished, Marco and other X-Laws aims their weapons at him and calls out "Archangel Fire" which summons all seven of their Archangels. Tabharish, Ching, and Billy just look on in shock, wondering where they got such spirits. During this he explains that they use firearms to create oversouls with divine ammunition as mediums. They quickly defeat Billy, and Marco prepared to end it but is stopped by Yoh, who disliked there methods. Both Yoh and Marco then start an argument over one another's morals, during which Marco asks if Yoh is with Hao while Yoh comments that Marco was just like Hao. In the end, in order to prevent Marco from killing Billy, Yoh clashes with the sword of Michael which result in Harasume beeing broken again. Seeing his bravery, Marco allows him to live and then leaves with the other X-Laws.

Recruting Lyserg
Marco is next seen comforting Lyserg Diethel who is sad about beeing weak. Asking if he could kill Hao, Marco replies that he can, because he has the combined strenght of the X-Laws with him. Telling Lyserg to stop crying, he notes how he was able to do well all alone until now and that Lysergs parents would be proud of him. Still feeling inferior to Yoh, Marco asks Lyserg if he wants to become stronger. Saying that if Lyserg meets their superior, he would be given the strength he desires, but then Marco also tells him to think about it and to contact the X-Laws when he is ready. Wishing Lyserg luck, he and the other X-Laws depart.

2nd Fight of the Tournament
Beeing part of the X-I team, Marco, was together with the newly joined Lyserg and there leader Iron-Maiden Jeanne, pitched against the Nile River team.
