Matrix

Also known as Glitch or Glitchy, Matrix is a sentient glitch and the owner of Comet and a few other OCs.

They are friends with Comet, Game Day, and simps for River in their home world.

Appearance
Being a sentient glitch, Matrix can change their appearance however they like, though they seem to stick with the same look at all hours. In this appearance, Matrix appears as a rather skinny 4'11" (148cm) humanoid with lightly tanned skin. They have shoulder-length black hair styled with several wild, messy bangs facing left swept across their face, with the most prominent one sticking up slightly on the left side of their head. Their eyes are slightly round but pointed at the end with light grey irises lacking in a shine.

Despite having the ability to change their outfit, Matrix usually wears a purple and lavender headset, a black jacket with purple cuffs, and dark grey pants and boots as well as light grey gloves. They can connect the headset to nearby devices and communicate with their friends/other party members with it.

Personality
Despite appearing to be a laid-back and calm person, Matrix has some issues with the Mother Computer in the Mind's Stream. They resent it heavily but is grateful for their sentience, despite being connected to the Mother Computer, and therefore unable to destroy it without repercussions.

Matrix also has an ego problem. In battles, they will often get ahead of themselves and start taunting the enemy, which can lead to good or worse for themselves and their allies, though often worse. They are also not as smart as one would seem, due to not being human, they are still learning about many things, and sometimes screws things over due to their stupidity. Usually, Matrix happens to be the wise-cracking idiot to their best friend Comet's more serious persona, and is forever screwed over by her due to the time they attempted to show off for River by trying to eat a fish but failing miserably.

However, despite the negative character traits, Matrix is still a good and loyal person at heart, and will do anything to protect their friends. They have a fierce need to save any of their allies in danger and will do anything if it means that the people they care for will be safe. After witnessing almost all of their friends long ago die in a war long ago to protect them with their adoptive parents killed in the aftermath is the reason for the need as well as other things.

Due to what happened in the past, Matrix made a spell to lock away all of their past and present grief in a charm for now. The spell made it so that any negativity they felt and currently feel is stored away, leaving them positive. If the spell breaks, or the charm cracks, all of the negative emotions will return to them and will most likely spread into their surroundings and affect everybody else. Another thing the charm does is that it removes fear, allowing Matrix to face what they were once afraid of in the past (spiders, the dark, and heights).

Powers
Can travel into technology but needs to recharge in an electronic device (usually phones) if they get beat up too much. The kind of device depends on how well/fast they heal, also if they can communicate or not (ex: a Nokia phone is worse than an iPhone, and computers are best).

Has a machete and bazooka/modified Howitzer cannon

Immunity to any status effects due to not being an animal or plant, EXCEPT for further glitching (instability) or other related effects. Is also weak to their own emotions (as they would feel them should their pendant break)

Can't swim just sinks or awkwardly glides through water like a constipated mermaid without the fish tail
