Wowzers Anyways, we're returning to my R10 character's lore with his surviving twin brother, Matthew. Anton was just a little intermission character between R10 and originally R11 (couldn't submit my application due to being at a convention). Matthew is a very... interesting character, to say the least. Before his brother's untimely demise, he was the shadow of the two, the supporting character in Alfred's play of life. They were always close to each other, and seeing his death onscreen, televised by the Capitol, planted a seed of hatred towards the leaders of Panem, as well as anyone who was associated with them. He began m_rdering those who were involved with the Capitol's activities in District 1, primarily targeting Peacekeepers. In his eyes, he's doing the people of the districts a favor, cleansing the streets of those he deems "traitors." If you dare even turn a blind eye to the Capitol's activities, you'll have made it onto his list. He considers those who run the districts, the ones who are employed by them, and the innocent people who just so happen to live in the Capitol irredeemable monsters, which is why he targets them. Due to this (after all, the Capitol probably doesn't like somebody taking out their staff), he was eventually found out, arrested, and sentenced to compete in the games as punishment. He doesn't mind this, however. He'll show the Capitol that their methods are flawed, that someone like him can win the Hunger Games. And being sentenced to compete? That's just what he wanted to happen. ╔∘ ✧ ∘════════════════════════════╗ ╚════════════════════════════∘ ✧ ∘╝ Yeah that's his basic backstory so far. I took inspiration for his flawed sense of justice from Javert from Les Misérables, although it's mixed in with other sources. He thinks that he's a good person, but he is /not/. DO NOT TRUST WHAT HE SAYS OTHERWISE. He will take advantage of others. Biography: Name: Matthew Lein Age: 18(? I don't know how many inrp years have passed since round 10), b-day is July 1 Gender: Male (AFAB) Sexuality: Asexual Demiromantic Occupation: None Home: District 1 Family: Alfred (twin brother, dead), Mother (alive, missing), Father (alive, missing) Sign-up Form: Matthew Lein . 18 . He/him . 1 . A sandy colored male tabby with three heart-shaped markings on his right side. His eyes and a small section of his hair are purple, and a small curl hangs in front of his face. He wears a gray top hat and coat, with a small white section stitched onto the coat. He also wears white cuffs on his front feet, and a playing card with an upside-down heart is attached to the front of his coat. . Matthew is complicated. One's first impression of him is of someone who's quiet, unassuming, just another citizen of District 1. However, this is all a ruse. In actuality, Matthew is cunning and manipulative, willing to cut whatever corners possible in order to get what he wants. While he will hear others out and appear to be receptive to their ideals, he will use these to blackmail them into doing his bidding. He doesn't care for those who consider him a friend; he only thinks about himself and his goals. Despite this, he has allowed himself to be quite the sociable individual, and if you manage to make yourself someone who he considers close, he will do anything to protect you. . Observant, protective (sometimes over-protective), perceptive. . Manipulative, impulsive liar, self-centered, cunning. . Asexual Demiromantic . Matthew and his twin brother, Alfred, grew up in District 1, the two being extremely close to each other. However, the latter was reaped during round 10, and after seeing his brother's d_ath onscreen, Matthew grew an intense hatred of the Capitol. He began targeting Capitol or Capitol-allied people, mostly peacekeepers, taking them out to try and make a statement. He was eventually caught, and was sentenced to compete in the games as his punishment. ╔∘ ✧ ∘════════════════════════════╗ ╚════════════════════════════∘ ✧ ∘╝ RP Tracker: ╔∘ ✧ ∘════════════════════════════╗ ╚════════════════════════════∘ ✧ ∘╝ Event Tracker: Reaping: Parade: Gamemakers: Interviews: ╔∘ ✧ ∘════════════════════════════╗ ╚════════════════════════════∘ ✧ ∘╝ Battle Tracker: ╔∘ ✧ ∘════════════════════════════╗ ╚════════════════════════════∘ ✧ ∘╝ Credits: All art by me Original Concept of the Hunger Games is by Suzanne Collins
