[Chulance]

@Nallore I can't wait, the show returning should help get some major interest into the RP haha, as well as spark people's creative genius.

Elena is an awesome character, but you know the price of being a hero is a big one lol. And feel free to make a new character we could always use another villain.

[Chulance]

[LPFan]

A little later then I wished but he's finally done. Picking up a power was a real pain in the ass as all my options were taken already.

Name:
Matteus Suomalainen

Age:
31

Gender:
Male

Height:
6'0"

Weight:
196 lbs

Ethnicity:
Finnish/Caucasian

Sexuality:
Heterosexual

Religion:
Despite growing up in a very religious family, Matteus never really cared about religion, not even when he was a child. He can be considered an atheist because he doubts the existence of a superior being outhere somewhere that governs us.

Occupation:
Co-owner of The Viper Pit, a car shop which handles customization, restoration and repairing of vehicles. Matteus is also an illegal street racer, and a big name in Los Angeles's underground racing scene, having his own crew called T.S.V.(which is short for The Street Vipers). Matteus's crewmates are also his employees at his car shop and the name for it was obviously inspired from the crew's name.

Ability:
Organic Metal Composition: Matteus has the ability to transform his body into a flexible metallic form. The organic material changes at a molecular level into this metal, providing Matteus with enhanced durability, endurance, strength, and an extremely dense tissue as well as resistance to contaminants, diseases or extreme changes in temperature. In addition to this, it also enables Matteus to reshape his appendages into different objects, such as weapons or tools. The downside to this is that, whenever he uses this power, Matteus's weight will increase significantly, thus diminishing his mobility. He also becomes vulnerable to magnetism and to a certain extent, electricity as well.

The ability also enables Matteus to heal much more quickly than normal while in this state, as the metal will simply reform over a wound. However the speed of the process depends on how bad the wound is. Even so, if the healing process is incomplete when Matteus reverts back to fleshly form, any wounds would then be as intended, causing harm to the body and could even be fatal.

Personality:
Matteus is and independent, rebellious, easy-going and amoral individual. He cares about his crewmates very much and sees them as his 2nd family, always looking after them. He seems to have a strong dislike for authority, the police in particular, and regardless of the situation he never allowed anyone to drag him down, living his life the way he sees fit. His life revolves around two things, which Matteus loves very much, cars, which can almost be considered an obsession and music, in particular rock and metal but also a little hip-hop. Although he is not a hateful and violent person, by any means, Matteus has moments when he feels like losing his mind, becoming very impulsive, but those moments usually pass easily. He also displayed an ambitious side as he never gives up on his goals.

Background:
Matteus was born in Tampere, Finland. His mother, was a teacher and his father was a taxi driver. When Matteus was 7 years old his parents moved to the capital, Helsinki, in hopes of providing a better future for their child also taking Matteus with them. However life in the capital proved harder then initially expected and after just two years they moved again, this time choosing Los Angeles, United States. In America, Matteus proved to be quite adaptable as he had no problem learning english and the way of life in his new home. The only problem seemed to be the sudden weather change as he was coming from a country where almost everytime is cold. His love for cars began as a teenager. His neighbour from the other side of the street, a former Marine, by the name of Drew, who lost his left leg and was now wearing a prosthetic leg because of an home-made bomb had a beautiful 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T. Matteus liked the raw power, the engine sound and everything that car was. He went many times to Drew's house and spent hours in his garage as the man was working on his car.

Matteus then moved on and went through high school and college as well as doing various side jobs in order to pay his studies. Then his father passed away after suffering multiple strokes, with the last one ultimately deciding his fate. Matteus showed great fortitude, not allowing the situation to affect him and moving on with his life, unfortunately the same could not be told about his mother who fell into a depression with which she struggled with many years. Eventually he got involved in street racing thanks to his best friend Wesley who introduced him to this new world that Matteus fell in love with almost imidieatly, becoming bigger and more important with each race that ended in victory, earning the respect of the other street racers. He also formed a crew together with Wesley and 3 other racers. They also put money together and bought themselves a place to hang out in, which is an old and abandoned car shop that they restored and reactivated. Ultimately, since the entire crew put money in buying and reviving their now little piece of heaven Matteus came with the idea that they should all be co-owners, an idea which they all happily accepted.

Regarding his powers for Matteus the situation is pretty clear. He hates Claire Bennet's guts for exposing them to the world, but dosen't let the whole situation affect him too much. To him life moves on and the fact he has something extra then other humans dosen't matter much to him. The only people that really know about his powers are his crewmates and they've accepted it, although at first they were a little shocked. Lately his girlfriend went missing and Matteus has become really desperate as he is quickly running out of options.

@LPFan I mean your accepted, but that shouldn't even be a surprise considering the quality of your character. Haha a super powered Jax Teller sounds fucking awesome. Anyway welcome to the RP, feel free to start posting.

Any questions you have to ask, do so, also drop Matteus in the character tab.

[LPFan]

Thanks! :)

Normally as a new guy I would've asked in what stage the RP is currently in but you already answered that question on page 9, so i'll just proceed to post my character in the appropriate tab.

[Chulance]

@LPFan Haha no problem, and I'm glad you read back to see that lol. Can't wait for your first post to see how Matteus will react to everything going on in Los Angeles right now lol.

Were/are you a fan of the show Heroes?

[LPFan]

@LPFan Haha no problem, and I'm glad you read back to see that lol. Can't wait for your first post to see how Matteus will react to everything going on in Los Angeles right now lol.

@Chulance

Yes, they broadcasted seasons 1 and 2 on TV in my country as well and I remember enjoying them very much. Unfortunately I haven't watched the other 2 seasons. Also, regarding Jax Teller, I wanted to play a blond guy with long hair and the actor that played him in the series was the first person that came to my mind.

[Nallore]

I actually need to rewatch the series again I honestly haven't seen it since the series finale lol.

[Chulance]

@LPFan Hell yeah the show was good. And yeah he's a good actor.
