Age: 23
Gender: Male
Symbol:
- Matthias's Symbol:
Appearance: 5’9”, slim build. Faunus with the ears and fangs of a wolf. Dark grey, scraggly hair with jet black streaks at medium length. His left eye is an icy blue, and his right eye is a pure green. Wears a brown double-layered coat; the inside layer is dark green and has a hood. Also wears torn pants, brown like his coat, with black shoes. Wears dark green gloves with a few fingers missing (of the glove, not his hand). Sports silver-shaded goggles with green details that he rests on his head when not in combat. His symbol is located on the back of his coat and on the inside of each of his gauntlet's wrists.
Personality: Slow to build relationships and has abandonment issues. Extremely vengeful when betrayed. Greedy. Morally grey. Analytic. Voracious appetite.
History: Matthias was born into a poor Faunus family and experienced a life filled with prejudice. Orphaned at the age of 6, he lived off the streets as a petty thief until the age of 17, when a group of rogue criminals picked him up for his skills in stealth (pick-pocketing, lock picking, etc.). He never attended Beacon Academy, for he felt sympathy for the creatures of Grimm. They, like him, were shunned by society; the world was theirs before the humans arrived after all. The group of thieves led many successful raids and robberies for 6 years; however, they dreamed too big. They went after a notorious gang's stash of Dust and got caught; all but Matthias, that is. He escaped, but his friends were executed. Matthias took back to petty street crime, for it was all he knew how to do. He still hopes to find another group one day – one that he can call family.
Strength: Heightened sense of hearing due to his wolf ears. His fangs may also be used in combat. He has above average strength and durability and is skilled in nonlethal combat. His pick-pocketing skills can be used to disarm enemies if he is undetected.
Weakness: Very slow to trust or get close to people. Works best alone, although he can still operate with a group. Has a soft spot for other Faunus and creatures of Grimm, even when they are hostile towards him, which can affect his effectiveness in combat. While he is quick on his feet, his gauntlets only have a range of about 5 feet giving him no ranged attacks.
Semblance: Featherweight - Matthias's semblance makes him light on his feet, allowing him to move in perfect silence. In addition, it makes him extremely agile, allowing him to perform stunning acrobatic feats assisting in both movement and combat.
WEAPON
Name: Pride and Prejudice
Primary Form: Silver gauntlets with green details and claws instead of fingers. Can be used as a melee weapon or to scale walls. They take the form as bracers that cover his forearms when not in use. Always carries a concealed dagger for emergencies.
Secondary Form/Function: The left gauntlet doubles as a flamethrower. The flames are fired from openings on the top of the gauntlet.
Third Form/Function: The right gauntlet doubles as a freeze gun. The ice is fired the same way as the flames on the left gauntlet.
History: Originally, Matthias carried nothing but a concealed dagger for emergencies. However, he created his gauntlets when he joined the group of thieves, for their jobs were more dangerous than his previous work. The gauntlets' design is meant to mirror his Faunus heritage.
