Dragonfly 9 — Roleplayer Guild

@EmiliaBaiYue@Dragonfly 9

So were still doing something guys, with Red X not in the picture anymore as he resigned. Here's what I came up with, and please if you have any plot ideas or anything to throw out, now's the time to do so. This means Red X is open to claim

So With my Terra claim, My OC and your characters we can Potentially have a team of four maybe five characters, one of us taking on an extra character.

That being said in this Terra would be considered Neutral

Maybe we cn have her lead the group instead of Red X unless anyone else wants to lay claims, or even better maybe Terra herself gets Red X's suit with her still being under Slade's influence some what.

The Real question here is are we villains, heroes, or neutrals in general? Since we have somewhat of a set back, I want to see what everyone's ideas are@xXSINXx

Sounds good, man! I'm thinking of making a dryad-like male character, tbh.

Name:Matthew Pierce
"Right, I think we need to be going now. We have important work to do!"

Gender:Male

Age:20

Appearance:

Matthew is a tall and lanky dude, with soft yet neat brown hair swept out of his face, usually serious brown eyes, pale skin that shows that he’s usually inside reading books all day instead of doing something athletic, and a narrow and slightly pointy nose. He’s not really muscular or athletic, and isn’t “stronger than he looks” physically, either. Instead, his strengths come from his brain and practical nature. So, basically, he’s a nerdy twig. xD

He usually wears clothing that’s subdued in color, making him not stand out so much. His favorite piece of clothing is his long, brown cloth jacket, which he usually wears when it’s cold outside. Otherwise, he usually wears browns, beiges, blacks, and grays, with some other color thrown in if he’s feeling a bit extra that day.

Personality:
{Serious}{Practical}{No nonsense}

Matthew is a serious dude who doesn’t really like goofing around. He’s not much for cracking jokes or telling quippy one liners, and would rather get the work done and move on, whether it be a serious fight against a monster or just studying on his off time.

He often studies about and trains for his magic, and is often very irritated when he finds frequent dead ends whenever he tries to find anything useful for magic in general. He’s also very irritated when Nyx refuses to work with him, which is most of the time. He’s not trying to be a slaver, damnit! He’s only trying to work with her on her terms, and she’s still refusing to help him anyway!

Despite trying to be calm and in control of everything, Matthew is actually an utter mess in terms of his actual emotions. He’s easily annoyed, easily frustrated, easily stressed, and very, very nervous and pessimistic. Despite all this, he buries all his emotions all the way down, and only lets them out when he’s in private. Unfortunately, Nyx is usually with him even when he’s in private, which can lead to some…awkward situations.

Speaking of Nyx, she and Matthew have an…odd relationship, to say the least. They usually argue and bicker, and Nyx often teases Matthew, knowing exactly the way to get under his skin. They are still friends, though, and when the chips are down, Nyx will often do a whole lot of clever maneuvers in order to get him somewhere safe. She never wants to collaborate with him, however, and Matthew can sense that beneath all the teasing and snark, there’s something Nyx isn’t telling him…

History:
{College student}{Trauma}{Emotionally abusive family}{Emotional manipulation}{From joking child to serious adult}

Matt wasn’t always this serious.

Starting when he was a child, Matt used to be known as the jokester of the family, usually telling puns and riddles and just generally not taking things seriously. He was also very emotional and a bit manipulative, crying at the drop of a hat if he didn’t get his way, and also liked wearing colorful/pastel clothing, as well as loving cute things and usually carrying a teddy bear around.

Since he was in a place that was more lenient with gender roles, everyone around him was okay with this, including his mother, who loved him to death.

Then, tragedy struck.

While Matt and his family were traveling to his grandmother’s house, they got into a wreck that killed Matt’s older twin siblings and mother and paralyzed Matt’s father from the waist down. Only Matt came out fully unscathed.

After that, everything changed for little Matt. Along with having to live with survivor’s guilt and the death of half his family, his grandmother soon became the head of the household in order to take care of his father and constantly berated Matt for his jokes and his love of cute things and bright colors, telling him that “real men don’t joke around” and “I will not let my grandson be a feminine pushover!”

Not wanting to disappoint his family and his father agreeing with his grandmother because she was taking care of him, Matt gradually “grew out of” his “more feminine” interests and became more serious, throwing away his teddy bear and starting to bottle up his emotions because his grandmother complained about them, too.

Then, when Matt was fourteen, he had his first supernatural encounter…with a bat spirit who tried taking over his mind.

Thankfully, Matt was stubborn enough to resist the spirit’s multiple attempts in order to make her worn down to make a deal with him instead, with the deal being that the spirit would protect Matt from monsters if he would let her stay in his mind.

Matt, reluctant but frightened at the mention of more monsters, decides to let the spirit stay, and six years later, Matt is in college and gets a weak version of light magic, but the spirit(Nyx) stays in his mind because "the deal hasn't been paid off yet"(in reality, Nyx has formed a bond with Matt, and still wants to protect him, but is too tsundere to admit that.)

Equipment:

Phone
Some books on magic
Charging cable
Couple changes of clothes
A handful of dollars and pennies

Magic:

Let there be LIGHT.

Matthew can partially illuminate a room and also make things or himself give off a faint glow. He can also partially blind people or creatures by literally shooting light into their eyes. As for his weaknesses, his vision dims a bit after using his powers, and he will become blind for a while if he uses them too much. His powers are also fairly weak compared to the others and even Nyx, but he tries to be helpful nonetheless.
