CHARACTER

Name: Matih Mera

Age: 17

Species and Gender: Human, Male

Symbol: A sword hilt with a shield instead of blade

Occupation: 1st year student at beacon

Appearance: A small guy with a very delicate frame. his face is soft with large amounts of freckles under his eyes but surprisingly tanned skin and a large metal plate across his neck to hide the scars. With his hair so long it hits the floor he often wears more like a scarf. His clothes look rather large an oversized wearing a large white robe and skirt like thing over a simple dress shirt and White jeans. He often keeps the hood up on his robe because he thinks it makes him look taller. It doesn't. He wears an orange belt and has an orange t shirt on too.

History: From a small fishing village off the west coast of Vale. Matih was always very close to his family. His parents were hunters and there parents before them. so he new from about the age of three what he was going to do with his life and was even the first to discover his semblance, as disappointing as it was. One day when he was 7 years old his parents went away for a mission and he was living with his Aunt a knock was heard at the front door, when he opened it he found his parents squad mate standing at the door holding his parents weapons with tears rolling down his eyes. After this moment it almost scared him away from the entire thing. For years he seemed to wander around with no idea what to do until one day an alarm was set off, a grimm was attacking his town and before he even knew what was happening it was standing right in front of him mauling someone he barely knew but something re-awoke inside of him right at that moment and he charged right at it and punched it square in the jaw. The grimm replied in kind knocking him unconscious and Shredding his neck. He woke up in a hospital bed with the inability to speak but something else. He was going to be a huntsman again. Armed with his parents weapons and a handheld white board he felt like he could do anything, so he made into beacon.

Personality: With everything Matih has gone through he has learned to see the positive in every situation. Living his entire life so far in a close knit community he has trouble speaking to new people and often seems way too forward ( which is surprisingly hard to do when you speak with a white board.) Being an honest person, he finds it extremely hard to tell if someone is lying or being sarcastic. With no ability to show sarcasm or obvious ways to show emotion in his voice he is known to either be very nice or very blunt but will always try to do right by people.

Aura and Semblance: Matih's aura is a very pale orange and is otherwise very average.
His semblance is a mixture of his parents. His dad's increase to speed and strength for an hour and his mothers ability to create an explosion of energy around her for about 30 seconds. creating the ability to gain an increase to strength and speed for about 30 seconds.

Combat Behavior: With his light nature and baggy clothing it looks likes he almost floats around the battle field. With the size of his weapons he is often over balanced and while not using his semblance is rather slow. dodging with the style and grace of a ballerina it almost seems taunting every time he dodges something. while he may be small his clothes are not being usually mangled in fights. leaving only his jeans and shirt remaining. Which does take its toll on his bank account.
