Character Info:
Name: Mathias
Nicknames: Matty, Grumpybutt
Gender: Male
Age: 15
Faction: Monster
Race: Wolpertinger
Natural Ability: Dark vision: The ability to see with no light source at all, but only to a specified range. This vision is in black and white, however, and would not allow them to see things that they would not have been able to see otherwise (ie: invisible objects or through illusions)
Personality: -Temperament: Wolpertingers are known for being rather fierce and engergetic for such small creatures. Mathias himself
can behave rather agressively. If he finds that something or someone is bothering him in a way that he finds unbearable, he will not hesitate to get right up in their business and let them know it, flat out, no beating around the bush necessary. If things escalate further from that point, he will be more then happy to fight it out, if that is what the other party would wish to do. In fact, he loves fighting, he takes great enjoyment in it. It is how he would prefer to 'socialize'. Even though this has more often then not led to rough end for the little wolpertinger, both in his current school and in his pack, it has done nothing to stop him from repeating this cycle. He is scrapper, and he's high strung and easily wound up. Chances are, however, once the fight is said and done, he will hold nothing against the one that he fought against to begin with. Win or lose, after a good fight is finished, he'll probably want to be friends.
-Territorial: Mathias is very protective of what he considers to be his. His room is his den. Intruders are not appreciated, and would learn quite quickly to stay out unless invited in. He does not lend out his possessions easily, not even to friends, and would likely act very put out and disgruntled if forced to share. This does not just apply to objects, but to other people as well. Once he has made a friend, he would consider them his friend for life, and would become vastly vigilant in keeping them from harm. Jealousy might also be an issue for him.
-Kleptomaniac: While he is incredibly possessive of his own things, Mathias appears to have very little regard for other people's property, and will very casually pocket obscure objects owned by his fellow family members, peers, or even teachers to smuggle back into his room and keep as his very own. None of the things he takes are ever of any real value. Pens, paperclips, buttons, spoons, feathers...it's all quite harmless really. It's actually almost more like hoarding...but it's still stealing.
-Games: Mathias loves games, especially ones that are played in large groups, but since leaving home he hasn't yet made enough close ties to new people or made any really good friends. He misses the woods that were his home, his vast family/pack, and his small, natural form. They were all that he knew before being sent out into the world, and it is taking him some time to adjust to the new surroundings. As a result, the games he plays now are often ones that he can do on his own. Crossword puzzles, sudoku, word searches...it's nice for him to be able to just immerse himself in these puzzle games (even if he's not very good at them) , and he will quite often be found between classes relaxing with a book, pencil in hand, concentrating on these little distractions.
-Language: Wolpertingers are of German origins, and Mathias himself is fluent in the language, though he does of course speak the more common one of his peers and teachers, but not without an accent. There are some occasions when he is feeling particularly stressed out that he might revert into his native tongue to rant for a few sentences. He also might find himself struggling with some terms and expressions, either to say them or to understand what has been said to him.
Strange Weakness: Wolpertingers have one well known weakness, and that is the sight of a beautiful woman. In Mathias's case, catching the eye of a pretty ghoul will quickly turn the excitable, sometimes surly, often times scrappish teenage boil into a quiet, shy, stammering, gibbering wreck. Congratulations, ghouls, you have tamed him. No more aggression here! To remedy this, he will often look past a ghoul when speaking with them, or in the case of the more indecently or scantily clad ladies out there, keep his head turned away from them altogether. This is of course, something he will eventually have to get over, as one can not live their entire life without looking at ghouls, and he will likely be encountering many on a day to day basis if he attends Amityville. It is highly unlikely that he will retain this condition (or at least, to the degree that he currently possesses it) forever.
tl;dr: Energetic, can be agressive, and likes to scrap, but shy, quiet, and timid around most ghouls. Likes to steal useless objects from others, but hates it when people intrude upon his own property or touch his own things. Speaks German, and has a German accent.
Why are they enrolled in Amityville Academy? His family worry that because of his small size, and the overly competitive nature of his kind, that he would not be given a chance to thrive in his home environment. He believes that he is perfectly capable, and that they should give him a chance to prove that size doesn't mean everything. It was with much discussion that they all decided sending him away for a time to school might be for the best, both for his own health and to figure out where his strengths truly lay before he can return.
