Appearence:
Matthew stands about six-foot tall, and is rather tall for his age considering he is only a 16 year old boy. Being so tall at such a young age makes him rather skinny and lanky as a boy, but that doesn’t bother him too much. He enjoys being thin. He has pale skin that tans rather nicely when he actually steps outside into the sun or partakes in an outdoor activity. Normally though he scene with pale skin for he prefers to stay within the shadows and the darkness. He has black hair in which he dyes blonde and red highlights into it occasionally to spice things up a bit. He normally wears his black hair messy and swept across the left side of his face. Sometimes for fun though he likes to mix things up a bit and sweep his hair across the right side of his face, just for a change mostly. He also has a habit of wearing black or red eyeliner in which he smudges around his eyes to give a dark look which makes his brilliant crystal blue eyes stand out. If the eyeliner does not make him stand out enough at Hogwarts his lip ring would do it, for he wears a lip ring on the right side of his lip constantly, no matter how much it bugs the Hogwarts staff.
Personality:
Mattew has many different sides to his personality, all that were learned and adaptive from the people that surrounded him. To the outside world he normally adapts to the personality of the slightly obnoxious, sarcastic, and narcissistic boy whom lives to lurk in the shadows and torment people’s lives. He enjoys very much so to talk people down and torment and twist their words just for his amusement. Many people love to hate him for it, but yet many people do like him for his other sides of his personality.
Another side to his personality consists of his joker side where he enjoys joking around with people and pulling as many pranks as he can around Hogwarts. When he’s not being obnoxious and sarcastic he can actually be quite a funny guy, that is if a person likes being made fun of horrendously in a very, some-what, affectionate manner. As his pranks goes, he just loves to torment all the years younger than him, and no house is safe, not even his own.
A side that is rarely seen is Matthew’s compassionate side. Yes indeed he does have a some-what loving and warm side to him, he just chooses to rarely show this side due to his own personal reasons. Normally the only people who see this side are those people that he truly cares about as well as his close friends. He chooses to hide this side from the outside world for he just does not feel comfortable showing it, and he does not want to get hurt because of it. So he simply keeps it hidden, enjoying being the obnoxious, sarcastic, narcissistic boy that he is.
History:
Matthew has a muddled past, which includes heartbreak and extreme love. He grew up in the beautiful cliffs of Galway, Ireland which is placed upon the western coast of Ireland. He grew up in the Abney family mansion with his parents Michael and Hillary. He had an interesting childhood since his parents were both former Death Eaters, whom realized the “error” of their ways, or so they told everyone who would listen.
His childhood was happy enough for his parents always showed him compassion and respect, with a little love added into the mix. He was taught magic at an early age and always encouraged to read a lot to have an even more of an edge when it would come time to enter Hogwarts. His parents were mostly cold towards him, for they were not the most loving of people to begin with, and nothing changed with the birth of their son. They just treated him fairly and wanted him to be the best wizard he could be. Although his mother always was much more caring and compassionate towards him than his father, this is where he developed the compassionate side of his personality was from his mother that he loved very much.
A tragic turn of events happened when Matthew was eight years old. His mother became very sick, very fast, and he did not understand why. She was fine one day and the next she could not find the strength to get out of bed. He didn’t understand at the time why, but when he grew up his father told him the truth, his mother was suffering from an old cures that had been shot at her while she was a Death Eater, which resulted in her death when Matthew was eight. He was devastated by the loss if his mother, but his father did not allow him to dwell on it much and began to drill him with learning magical skills for the future. Matthew never speaks of his mother for it is too hard of a subject for him to express, and instead just remembers her in his heart, and always wear the necklace his mother gave him.
It was from the time of eight to eleven where he developed the most prominent part of his personality for he learned it from his father to be sadistic and narcissistic for that was what the world had proved to be to his father. When he entered Hogwarts he received much malice for his peers remember his parents for being Death Eaters and could not separate Matthew from them, for a long while. It frustrated him to no end, which is why he has such anger towards most of the student body, and why he likes to play so many pranks upon them. Now that he is in his sixth year, a lot has changed, for now the students have finally separated him from his parents, since they now understand that he would never be as cold as mean as his parents, although he was often quite mean to some students, and it wasn’t fair to judge him by his parents. He is now some what happy to be at Hogwarts, and of course receiving top marks, since that is what his parents raised him to do.
