Matthías Algötsson

==Matthías Algötsson==
Matthías Algötsson (Played by IGN: HazMattTV) was a traveller and a bard, travelling all over Abexilas, until an event in Talasi that caused him to lose the majority of his memory and almost all of his gear, food, and other supplies. He only retains memory of his own identity, background, and parents; otherwise, his memory was pretty much wiped clean, including the event that caused it. His supposed race, as he claims, is Human, however many who have met him say that he has in-human traits, such as his elongated, elf-like ears, leading to many believing he may be at least a Half-Elf. With these disputes, his race is mostly unknown, aside from the fact that he has mainly Human and some Elvish traits.
===Early life===
Matthías Algötson was born in Halinn, on the lands of the Kingdom of Sakravir. His mother, Astrid Gylfidóttir, and father, Algöt Agnarsson, have been living off-grid for many years, primarily in a dug-out hole in a hill, basically underground, which they called home. He had a good relationship with both his parents, and Matthías was enjoying his life as a little boy with them both. His favorite activities were woodworking with his father (helping his father cut down trees, make it into furniture, etc.), and playing the harp and lyre, being taught by Astrid Gylfidóttir, his mother. He never knew either of his grandparents, only knowing as much as he has been told by his parents. He was also known by his parents as a little pyromaniac, since he loved campfires, and playing around with fire; once he even almost lit their house up on fire after playing with burning arrows a little bit too much.
===Before The Event===
At the age of 18, he bid farewell to his parents, saying that he wants to travel the world, and explore all the different nations, as well as what they have to offer. His parents didn't keep him, and only hoped that he'd arrive again to pay a visit from time to time. Over the span of a couple months, he travelled all over Abexilas, and played as a bard on a lyre in numerous Inns and Taverns. He planned to come back to his home and visit his parents on his 19th birthday, so he can tell them of all the stories and wonderful people he met along the way, as well as the different cultures, languages, religions, cuisine, and other amazing things. However, when he came back on his 19th birthday, his excitement has turned into shock, as he witnessed his house looted, ruined, and both his parents dead inside the ruined house.
To this day, he doesn't know who did it, and his need for revenge was never satisfied, causing him to sometimes lash out on the world. The only things he managed to keep that weren't stolen from the looted house, was his mother's necklace, and his father's silver ring with a ruby embedded in it.
===The Event===
It is unknown when it happened, or even what it was; even Matthías himself doesn't know. All he knows is that it happened in Talasi, somewhere around the center of the continent, that it left him without the majority of his memory, and that it left him with something on his face that he despised, causing him to at some point buy a mask with what little money he had and cover it. From that point forwards, no one ever saw him without that mask. He also bought himself a journal, in which he writes about his travels since The Event.
===Aftermath===
Because of The Event, he has found himself afraid of the Talasi continent, and vowed to never return there again, and thus began his journey on finding a new place to call home, since his old one has been destroyed by, what he believed, were simple bandits. He ended up travelling from Prisma, through Kingdom of Sionnach, then east of the Fjalrdom of Skúlfur, to end up sailing through the sea into the continent of Cathrámis, where he found himself inside the Holy Order of Tanderium. He could only make it to the town of Ganadigedã before resorting to beg the locals for food, locals by the names of ghostlyfan, and Jantro1. Later, he began exploring a little bit of the first part of the continent, until eventually got lost, and dug himself a hole between Hodege and the Varaxis Imperium, in a desperate attempt to shelter himself from the world.
=== The Present ===
Matthías, after being presented with the opportunity to join Hodege by the mayor of Meummade, has warily agreed, in hopes of finding a new home, just like he hoped to do ever since escaping Talasi, but also due to his dwindling supplies of food and iron. He knew that if he wanted to survive, he'd have to join. Since that event, he is apart and citizen of Hodege.
