Matthias | Redwall
CHARACTER: Matthias
CANON: Redwall. Yes, THAT Redwall with the woodland critter violence for kids.
AU NAME: Matthias Wallace
AU AGE: 18. The books just describe him as a "young mouse" and yet they let him drink October Ale. Seriously.
AU OCCUPATION: University freshman taking a writing course. Has a part-time job at a pet shop.
BLURB:
- Since he is a mouse, he will be humanized into a young man with brown hair and brown eyes. He is on the short side, around 5'5".
- Born to British parents who live in the countryside, and only moved to the city to take up his creative writing degree. His parents partly pay for his apartment rent.
- Growing up, Matthias has always shown a fascination for animals of all sorts, but mice hold a special place in his heart. He keeps two males as pets and calls them Matti and Morty. However, he never considered becoming a veterinarian as his calling. Ask him about mice; he knows so many fun facts about them.
- His family is middle-class; he gets allowance from them every month but he tries to do his part by getting a part-time job.
- He enjoys shounen manga, books and anime, and his dream is to write action/adventure novels.
- Matthias knows judo, but isn't an expert. One might say he's...a couple of steps below that, and he's trying to find time for it as well. He didn't compete in too many competitions.
- Used to write for his high school paper.
- ...writes fanfics under the pseudonym, "I Am That Is". It's an anagram of his name.
- For some reason he doesn't take to nicknames well and would rather be called "Matthias". No "Matt" or "Matti" for him, thanks.
PERSONALITY
- Kindhearted and always willing to help his friends in any way he can.
- However, he can be very hotblooded and has a temper. If you frustrate him enough he'll yell at you. Call him short and he'll explode.
- He's the kind of guy who will occasionally post about politics and how THIS IS WRONG, LEADERS AREN'T SUPPOSED TO ACT LIKE THIS, ETC.
- Very hardworking at anything he does, and determined to finish anything he starts.
- Speaks his mind, and can be a little annoying or pushy or Angry about it depending on what he's saying.
- Friendly, but not very outgoing. He will approach people by himself and throw himself out there to make friends but he's not much of a social butterfly. He'd rather have pizza with four or five friends at his apartment and play video games with them than go to a full-blown party.
- Has an impulsive streak. Likely to take on a mugger by himself before realizing he can just call the police.
LOOKING FOR: Anything and everything! College buddies, maybe a roommate or two (I'm game for apartment-sharing), classmates, judo buddies, fellow animal aficionados, maybe even co-workers and neighbors. People are free to tease him for his love for mice, get ticked off at him, etc. My gosh guys, friend the mouse-man. Oh, and childhood friends from the country who also moved into the city OR DIDN'T, yeah.
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: I'm not sure about this BUT I THOUGHT OF THROWING A MOUSE AT THIS GAME TO SEE WHAT IT'S LIKE so yeah, not yet sold.

I AM THAT IS!!!!
no subject
I thought Matthias would be the type to write hotblooded shounen fanfics about his hotblooded shounen fandoms.
no subject
no subject

i'd love to have him and sena have unending arguments about anything together bc sena complains A LOT and he's also pretty much a bully so despite all of that, he's going to call him short anyway, hoho
no subject
This sounds PERFECT, and Sena can call Matthias short all he wants, he will continue to explode every time. Use him as an armrest, too
I can see Matthias telling him to give it a rest every time he COMPLAINS welp
no subject
also it's too bad that he doesn't like the nickname "matt" bc sena is known to be a notorious nicknamer anyway BUT he'll call him that anyway bc he'll always be an insufferable little shit o7
no subject
I like to think that Matthias can be terrible at insults (a.k.a. how do I translate these animal-specific insults in the book) so he tries to insult Sena and then fails miserably and Sena just receives more ammunition
no subject
Er...Hello fellow paper person! I had the paper be Eleanor's big 'thing' her senior year kind of running it and junk so they should definitely know each other!
no subject
Sweet! Matthias probably writes mostly news but his favorite is writing features because those are more similar to storytelling than news writing. And sometimes he publishes some poetry.
no subject
(She had to guilt some people into being on the paper)
no subject
No need to guilt trip him, he just likes to write, k. Maybe even do a little column for pet care AND MICE
no subject

no subject
and in terms of being a TA, to know what Matthias gets to deal with: while Myca's discussion section...lecture? things generally include a lot of interesting additions beyond the professor's lectures, they're also challenging and a harsh grader.
