Malves

Lord Marves (Malves in the anime) is a High Lord Noble of the Holy Empire Westelande, and is considered the head of the territory's merchant fleet. He commands the Spirit Ship Eagle.

Appearance
Lord Marves is a pasty-faced elf, (most likely makeup) with a skinny body, pale skin and dressed in gaudy, purple clothes and wears kind of captain's hat.

Personality
Lord Marves is a pompous, arrogant individual with a sneaky disposition and a perverted attitude towards Princess Raynesia. Though he thinks he's a brilliant schemer, he does not compare to Shiroe's ability and is easily cowed when outmaneuvered. Like many nobles, he is used to having people serve him and does not realize that he is up against well-educated and formidable opponents such as the Adventurers of Akihabara.

The Libra Festival
Lord Marves is accompanied by three Adventurers, (possibly from Minami) and brings the Spirit Ship Eagle into Akihabara's port during the Libra Festival. He then visits Princess Raynesia with the expectation that she was already prepared to store the 500 tons of cargo that he had on board. He even claimed to have sent a letter in advance.

In actuality, this was all a ruse to embarass the Cowen Family and weaken the authority of the Round Table Alliance. However, he did not take into account of Shiroe's ability to create the supposed letter with Marves' own signature, nor that Oceanic Systems had the capability to store ten times the cargo he had supposedly brought. With the fact that he didn't really have 500 tons of cargo with him, and that he never even sent a letter, Maves had no choice but to withdraw on the pretense that he wasn't feeling well. The Spirit Ship Eagle quickly departed after the plan to discredit the Round Table Alliance had failed.
