about matt

Name: Goes mostly by Matt. Has quite a few other identities as well, though, especially online. His real name is not well-known - Matt suspects Near to know and (depending on the verse and timeline) most likely Mello knows as well. Matt is, however, not that strict about the name being a huge secret (especially after Kira case), he just really likes the anonymity that several names give him.**Age: ** Born on February 1st, 1990. The Matt i RP as survived Kira case so in general RPs he has aged normally and is oh my god in his 30s unless otherwise mentioned. However i am more than happy to RP pre- or mid-Kira case as well! (Or AUs. Or alternative timelines. Zombies? Anything! Check out my list of verses or throw me a message.)Height: Average for a Western man, scratch canon. A little bit shorter than Mello, goddamnit.Weight: Fairly skinny - Matt regularly forgets to eat actual food and will have a cigarette and energy drink for dinner more regularly than should be humanly possible.Style:
plain-ish cotton shirts (often striped)
mostly gaming/band related t-shirts
jeans
combat boots, or if it really is too warm, sneakers.
almost always goggles, since his eyes are sensitive to light.
around neck-length, kind of unkempt red hairNationality: No-one really knows but possibly American.Occupation: “Freelancer”.Sexual orientation: Claims to be straight. Closeted bi.Religion: Not his thing.Personality:
Quiet, sarcastic, blunt, nonchalant. Matt can come across as arrogant (usually for a reason though) and he is quite sexist. Careless. Not very patient other than for Mello’s shit (Goddamnit Matt, where did you learn to pick your battles?). Quite antisocial but tries his luck with pretty girls given the chance (although his way of flirting is very bad straight-forward).Lazy, gets bored easily. Chain smoker. Smokes pot and gets drunk whenever he has time, after Kira case doesn’t do much other drugs. Can go through an insane amount of junk food and then forget to eat for days.ISTPSkills:
A professional hacker, very tech savvy in general. Knows how to use guns, and is secretly proud of his precise shooting skills. Can play vidya for days straight. Likes cars, especially old school, and is pretty good at modifying them. Does competitive gaming in his free time and has won a fair few contests. Specially likes first person shooters - he enjoys pissing off the other players. Can read people surprisingly well, his observational skills are way above average when he actually pays attention.

ooc info

about GoldHeavily headcanon based, inspiration drawn both from the pokespe manga and G&S/HG&SS games. Gold will be based on post-game timeline where he is a pokémon breeder, working closely with the professors to learn more about natures and IVs of pokémon and how hatching and breeding environments can affect them. As a dex holder and previous champion, Gold gets asked to help in all types of situations all over the world regularly.Age:
Can vary depending on the verse but mainverse will be mid 20s.Hair:
black overgrown mess most of the time (“It’s called bedhead hair and it’s fashionable”)Eyes:
striking amberBody build:
medium height. Built like a triathlonist, thanks to his years as a trainerStyle:
comfy clothes. Hoodies, tees, trainers, shorts, etc. Clothes you can wear while traveling, mostly by habit by this point. However, he is very vain specific when it comes to his clothes and can spend an hour in the morning making sure his outfit works well for the day (especially if there might be pretty girls in the area).Personality:Impulsive, cheeky, cocky. Gold doesn’t have a problem in using questionable means to get the desired results (although the wellbeing of pokémon will always be his priority). Restless, he can make stupid decisions when bored - it’s purely down to luck that he’s not ended up completely screwed, he says, although his battling skills have helped more often than not. Gold’s love language is to irritate the hell out of people he cares about.Despite some calling him chaotic, Gold has very strong morals and will promptly act if he sees anyone going against them - especially if it’s affecting anyone vulnerable, be it people or pokémon.Usual Team:
ambipom (aibo)
politoad (polibo)
sunflora (sunbo)
sudowoodo (sudobo)
togebo (togekiss)
typhlosion (exbo)

about melloName:
Mello. Mihael Keehl died the same day L did Mello why you so dramatic. May use other names as well.Age:
Born December 13th, 1989, aging accordingly unless specified otherwise in a verse.Height:
Average for a Western man, not gonna follow canon here.Weight:
surprisingly small and lithe but don’t let that fool you. Appears bigger than he actually is but can still pack a punch.Appearance: Blond, shoulder-length hair that often falls in front of his eye (when Mello is working he has it on a ponytail to have less distractions). Blue, sharp eyes. Mello is hard to miss in a crowd and while most of it is his attitude, some of it is from what he’s wearing.All his clothes fit him well and he knows how to wear them to give the wanted image. His clothing is always there for a reason and thus a little bit dependent on the timeline. Generally it’s all black, and even after Kira case he’s still got a little bit of a soft spot for leather. Unless he’s actively working with the underworld he’s more likely to loosen up a little and go out with just a pair of well-fitting black jeans, tee and a good quality leather jacket.There have been times where, after a hard day, he’d lounge around his flat in boxers and Matt’s shirt instead (it’s comfier. Also scruffy and worn out and no-one will ever see him wear that ever but by god if he cannot deny the bastard’s clothes are the most comfortable thing he’s ever worn.)Nationality:
Was born in Yugoslavia.Sexual orientation:If it’s pretty enough and Mello needs to get laid he’ll fuck it.Religion: love-hate relationship with Catholic church.Personality:competitive af
Mello is going to get where he wants using whatever he can or die trying. Literally.insecure af
Being the second best for most of his life is definitely showing here and he’ll get violently defensive over anything that could be thought as a flaw.lean and mean
Deadly’s never looked this good.persuasive and manipulative
If you have something he wants he’ll flirt with you, befriend you, kidnap your sister, mentally or physically torture you, whatever works the best to get what he needs and then drop you.stressed af
Being busy and stressed is his other nature. The days where he has nothing to do Mello can get inexplicably annoyed at nothing just because he isn’t used to resting.

SM and hc based, mainverse will be post SM. i have not played through USUM Rainbow Rocket plot but am happy to change things around for it to work with that as well, not funny about spoilers.
~
HauAge: mid-20sBody type:
taller than most after he finally had his growth spurt in his late teenage years. Years of surfing has made him quite lean and muscular, although he still struggles to mentally adjust to these changes.Hair:
shoulder blade length dark brown dreadlocks. Almost always in a ponytail.Sexuality:
BiHau manages to snatch the champion title temporarily a couple of years after SM plot happens. He trains hard to keep his pokémon top-notch, and works alongside Wicke, Lillie and Gladion to make sure Aether Foundation won’t get into any more dodgy shenanigans. After being defeated as a pokémon champion, Hau turns his surfing hobby into a profession and becomes a surfing champion, catching the attention of the news regularly from his sports achievements as well as previously proven battle prowess.Hau has always wanted to follow his gramps footsteps for being an island kahuna but even after his improvements on the battling department and his fame through sports he lacks the confidence to actually act on his dreams. He hopes that one day he will have the guts to do so, but for now he is quite happy doing sports, occasionally battling and generally getting to know himself.Personality:
Social, usually positive. Turned into a bit of a flirt once he got into a good physical shape and realised he can hide his insecurities behind a six pack, but haven’t been able to hold a relationship as that would mean a level of vulnerability he’s not comfortable with. Easy to talk to, hard to get to know, even though his old friends are able to read him like a book. Straightforward, absolutely incapable of playing mind games.Team:
Primarina (Pop)
Alolan Raichu (Chu)
Komala (Ko)
Flareon (Vee)
Noivern (Noi)
Crabominable (Nip)

Name:
Goes by Near or L, depending what and who he is dealing with.Age:
Born August 24th, 1991, aged accordingly unless otherwise stated.Appearance:
Near is short for a man, and appears younger than he is. It doesn’t help that he prefers wearing soft clothing and will stay in white pyjamas whenever given the option. Messy white, curly hair that someone else always has to remind him to get cut. Dark, almost black eyes that will follow you to your nightmares.Nationality:
English.Occupation:
L or L’s successor, depending on timeline.Sexual orientation:
Something he doesn’t have time or interest in.Gender:
something he doesn't have time or interest in, used to he/him pronouns though.Religion:
Something he doesn’t have time or interest in.Personality:
Straightforward and blunt, Near has no time for your bullshit. He can come across as emotionless when Near just expresses his emotions in a more reserved manner than most. Cunning and smart, passive-aggressive and spiteful. Near has no problems with using morally questionable tactics to get to his goal.

Characters that I want to RP as but haven’t done a profile for/ have profiles that are a wip. If you want to RP with any of these feel free to hit me up! I likely would like an excuse to flesh ‘em up.death note

verses

not an exhaustive list. also, i am very bad at tagging these appropriately, this is more... a wish list/prompt list i guess?DN
Mainverse
Matt survived Kira!Case and is getting used to living with…. No direction? No external drive? What is he supposed to do for the rest of his life??Kira!Case
Where the canon events take place. Matt works for Mello, tries to get over his hurt from being abandoned (or, at least, tries to get his revenge and make Mello feel the same) while getting closer to finishing up the case that killed L.Alternatively, Matt might be working for Near to spite Mello.Looking for Mello_
After Mello left Wammy’s house, Matt went after him. He is in Las Vegas, looking for clues, getting into trouble and generally being a depressed jackass to anyone around him. He’s angry, he’s lonely and he’s hurt._Wammy verse
Childhood at Wammy’s house is. Interesting. While Matt is not looking to compete for the status of L’s successor there isn’t a moment that isn’t filled with reminders that there is a goal that he should be trying to get to. The rat race is tough, and with a friend like Mello who needs enemies?Pokémonteam rocket’s blasting off again
Matt is a Team Rocket Executive, just following Giovanni’s orders to live a more exciting life.team numbskulls
Matt is a Team Skull grunt, living that easy life doing whatever the fuck he wants (which more often than not is just chilling, smoking pot and having a beer or five).The Owl House
A member of Potions coven, Matt occasionally helps the Emperor’s coven with his knowledge of generally unheard-of and often bizarre potions. He sometimes wishes he chose the Emperor’s coven (or stayed a wild witch) for the sake of having access to more types of magic but is aware that his specialised skill set has a lot of important people owing him a favour.Genshin Impact
Practically no-one knows how Matt became a member of Harbingers, or how he hasn’t gotten himself killed by the unending list of people envious of his status. Matt has an electro vision which he rarely has the need to use, as he prefers to avoid fighting head-on and tricks his enemies into an endless chase filled with Automatons he has tweaked.SupernaturalHunters
Coming from Wammy’s orphanage for children whose caretakers were killed by supernatural creatures, Matt has never even thought of a life where he wouldn’t be a hunter. And he is good at what he does - he just doesn’t do much, which has gotten him into more than a handful of arguments with other hunters who seem to think that the whole world is on their personal shoulders.Hunters+
The same as previous but the one time Matt let his guard down he got bitten by a werewolf. Which is fine, it’s fine, no-one needs to know about this, right?Gen!Mafia AU
Going from a drug dealer to a sought-out hacker, Matt has seen most of what the mafia has to offer, good and bad. Some of the messy sides he prefers to ignore and leave for the people with stronger stomachs but unfortunately that’s not always an option.And they were roommates (University AU)
Oh yeah. University. The time when you get to spread your wings and get to know what being an adult is like and - how has your roommate managed to make the place into a disaster zone already? You just moved in yesterday!AKA Matt is a terrible person to live with godspeed.Prison AU
So against the odds, Matt got caught. And against the odds, he got jail time. Two years, technically. Possibly less if he behaves himself - first timer perks, he supposes.He really wishes he took weight lifting, or kickboxing, or any exercise, really, before being sent in. And that his cellmate won’t fuck him up too bad. And that the guards are pretty and wearing sexy prison guard uniforms, whatever those look like.1312 AU
Matt is a detective who keeps changing districts (and states) to do undercover jobs as often as possible because they are generally the jobs where he can do whatever he wants (Very much B99 influenced).BOTW ZELDA VERSEOkay so this will very definitely depend on who is the other RPer - Matt can either a) replace Link as the knight/hero or b) be one of the pilots of Divine Beasts. Throw me a message if you're interested!DEMON SLAYER VERSEVery much WIP. Matt joins the Demon Slayer corps after being trained in an orphanage that specifies in children being orphaned by demons. He has absolutely no reason to rise in the ranks for anything higher than necessary - a reasonably comfortable life with enough money to live off without having to worry about much more is enough for him.
