Name: Matthew Acres
Nickname: Matt
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Occupation: Student
Face Claim: Mikagura School Suite - Yuuto Akama
Appearance: Matt looks pretty much like his face claim, often dressing himself casually with hoodies, jeans and the like. He often does indeed sport a hat, but the one in his face claim is a special one to him, so he wears it slightly more often than his other hats (mainly consisting of snapbacks) despite not wearing it all the time for fear of it being damaged. He’s slightly short, leading him to wear boots or high tops to boost his height most of the time and make him look a little taller. Surprisingly, the thick soles he always wears do not detriment his dancing skills.
Matt does tend to tuck his messy brown locks into his hats when dancing seriously though, as it gets in the way of his eyes from time to time. You may often see him brushing his bangs to the side so that he can see - some people mistake this for vanity since he adjusts his hair a lot, but that’s not really the case at all.
Talents:
Dance: Matt absolutely adores dancing; it’s one of Matt’s number one passions and he’s damn good at it… it’s been that way ever since he was small. Hip Hop and Acid Jazz (think Persona 5 OSTs) in particular capture his soul, but Pop (think J and K-Pop rather than Shawn Mendes) in its bright and colourful beats definitely appeal to him with a certain sparkle, so much that it can influence his fashion and his dancing from time to time. In fact, Matt loves dance and music so much that one could say they’re his life outside of hanging out with friends and school.
Music: Right up there with dance, music is an important part of Matt’s life. It’s actually rare to see him without at least some form of music device on him, whether that be a pair of earbuds and his smartphone or a full on boombox.
Medicine: Matt actually has both skill and an interest in all things medical (the skill being for first-aid) and attends extra first-aid training classes when they’re available at school. He keeps himself sharp by reading eBooks on the subject when he remembers to, meaning he spends a lot of quiet moments scrolling through texts on his phone.
Personality: Born on the 6th of June and under the Gemini star sign, Matt is very free young man in many senses of the word. He pretty much lets nothing tie him down, and will do anything he pleases. He’s rather charismatic and quite the mood maker, meaning that it’s hard to stay mad at his childishly happy yet gentle smile or to say no to his generally beneficial suggestions. His parents are more than happy to facilitate his desire for freedom, but of course they do impose some more-than-reasonable rules such as midnight curfews and the condition that he can only go out if he tells them where he’s going. As you may have guessed, Matt is also a stickler for adventure, always wanting to see more of the world outside his community. Sure, he’s been to the commercial and entertainment districts from time to time as well as to the very outskirts of the city (much to the chagrin of the friends he often drags with him to said places) and loves trying out new things. If Matt were asked what he were afraid of, he’d say that nothing at all could stand in his way as long as he had his friends by his side. Matt hates injustice, but thankfully New Sumatra’s law system deals with most injustices effectively enough that Matt has never felt the need to go vigilante. He has a strong sense of having to ensure his friends are safe, and has an inclination to lead that comes naturally. It’s not that Matt isn’t willing to sit back and let others lead the way; it’s just that he wants to make sure everyone knows what to do and that they’re doing it. He cares about his friends a lot, and would never abandon them for his own personal achievements… or, at least, that’s what he tells everyone. He’s never been put to the test like that, so he can’t really say for sure. He always wants to make sure everyone’s getting along, and his understanding nature often helps soothe tensions during disagreements.
History: Matt was raised in a fairly happy household as an only child, although his parents were often busy and sent him off to childcare groups as a result, a lot of the time even paying for them to look after him for a few extra hours in order to have time to themselves every so often. Matt seems to get along with his parents, but for all it’s worth, it seems a little odd that he doesn’t spend as much time with them as one would expect. Either way, no one really questions him on any aspect of his past except for what he willing contributes during such discussions, and said discussions don’t normally crop up within any of his groups. Matt’s parents are rather laidback in terms of their relationship with him, not trying too hard to relate nor trying to steer his future too much. Having said that, they’re still his parents, so they want him to stay safe and out of trouble. In terms of friendships, Matt’s always had a knack for surrounding himself from others. He’s been popular ever since he was young, and loves the feeling of having lots of friends to the point that he’ll initiate a discussion with pretty much anyone he hasn’t gotten to know yet, providing the situation allows for it. If Matt had to pinpoint any important figures that influenced his growing up, it would probably be his dance and music-loving neighbour. He’d spend a lot of time hanging out at said neighbour’s hideouts, but unfortunately he found that the man that had inspired him to love music and dance mysteriously disappeared one day. Eventually he managed to bury the loss and attribute his idol’s disappearance to the fact that he was a surveyor. To this day, Matt still holds a faint glimmer of hope that he hasn’t died...
