**Matt Sheo Ruby** is a primary protagonist of Frederick's Tales, played by Matt.

He is your usual edgy demon friend who happens to have cute cat ears. He will bully you but also protecc. He's arguably the *main* protagonist of Frederick's Tales, though he sometimes plays supporting roles for other characters.

He wields his favorite scythe, "The Negative," as well as an array of black magicks.

## Profile

### Appearance

Matt has the palest of the skins and long hair, dark as night (which is one of the few things he's proud of). She has yellow eyes with vertical pupils, THICC eyebrows (remember that, it's an important detail), and a purple left arm, up to his shoulder. She also happens to have a pair of cat ears, but don't mind those, he hates them.

Matt wears a black shirt, black pants, a blue jacket, gray boots, and most importantly, a gray scarf. Matt also has glasses, but sometimes, like when she changes into the female form, he's seen without them. She either changes them into contact lenses or the glasses really are just for show.

When he changes into the female form, Matt likes to have his hair cover one of his eyes and wear dark blue lipstick for whatever weird reason. No one ever cares though.

### Personality

Matt enjoys having peace and quiet, but that's what he least gets. which tends to make him internally angry. He rarely bursts, instead choosing to bully people, hurt someone who can easily heal themselves or simply fight evil or annoying creatures.

Matt doesn't show much care for most things besides her peace, money, plushies, and how much things annoy him. Despite this, Matt really does care a lot about the people close to him. She respects his older sister immensely, treats his employees well (besides the ones forced to work for him), and willingly took care of Ruby (although some people may question his reasons and ways of doing so). She sometimes even shows respect for the villains he fights, being legitimately worried about Nega Matt at the end of Book 2: Now in 4-D. One could say that he simply doesn't like showing emotion, be it because she's shy, to keep his edgy persona, or because she was raised by Sis, who also barely shows any emotions

## Musical themes

Marx's Theme (Kirby Super Star) would have been the theme for an unused Nightmariomatt battle. There has yet to be a reason to have such a fight thus far, so the theme remains unused.

## Other appearances

Best known for his appearance in Mugeneko.
