## Personality

Matoya is just and fair with her judgements as a ruler and a god, making her an irreplaceable part of Vindyth's political system, though in her free time she enjoys tormenting the servants with her brother and sending them on wild goose chases. She even goes so far as to join Srijan and Dial in making fun of Jessie and throwing her pet bird, Skye, off of a balcony where he was badly injured. She has little to no regard for the lives of mortals or those she believes to be lesser than herself as Lajja even stated that she doesn't let her or Dial into her aviary anymore after the stunts they pulled in the past. Toward her friends Matoya is able to be kind and somewhat considerate, though she doesn't seem afraid to wander into dangerous territory, as shown when she pokes fun at Josie in front of Srijan, resulting in a fight between the three friends. She enjoys getting what she wants when she wants and will not settle for anything less.

## Biography

Matoya was the last of her siblings to be born and therefore had the happiest and most luxurious childhood of all three of them. She was raised with all of the privileges a god would want, leading to her arrogant and stuck up personality. She spent much of her youth training to take over the throne for when Dial inevitably stepped down. Despite the two not actually being born at the same time, she and Dial consider one another to be twins, as barely a day passed between their appearances. To the divine this period of time is like the blink of an eye. Throughout her childhood Matoya idolized Lajja, striving to be exactly like her in both poise and status. She adored her older sister and wanted to do everything she could to make her proud. Unfortunately this goal failed as she proved to have more similarities with Dial, who was much more mischievous and around her age.

As she and Dial grew closer she stopped idolizing Lajja and began striving to be her own person with her own traits and flaws. She and Dial began causing trouble together as soon as she gave up trying to endlessly please Lajja and wound up getting into trouble countless times. The two would run around Vindyth observing their citizens and on rare occasions poking fun at those who were lesser than the nobles. As soon as Lajja found out about this they were trapped inside the palace for a few centuries as they straightened out their act. Due to this time of isolation Dial and Matoya became nearly inseparable, doing almost everything together. They grew to understood each other even more than Lajja did and eventually broke away from her to become their own gods.

Matoya discovered her value was justice upon witnessing a crime. In fact, her strong sense of power and superiority is what drove her to discovering her passion for justice. She assisted her siblings with setting the laws in Vindyth, and it made her blood boil to realize that some simply chose not to follow those rules. She swore to make it her lifetime goal to create and uphold just and reasonable laws for the betterment of Vindyth and Riyon and has been working to do so ever since.
