Matt Zimmer
HistoryWhile at Tarleton College, Matt Zimmer happened to run into the schools most famous student Astra Furst without even recognizing her identity. Supposedly. Astra, refreshed at being with someone who accepted her at face value. rather than fame or celebrity, took a liking to Matt. Over the ensuing months, they became close friends and more. But on their graduation night, Matt started to bring up the questions of where their relationship. His nervousness while cloaked, suggested something more than just insecurity. While at a night club celebrating with a group dance, there was yet another disturbance caused by an aggressive gossip news show, the Inside Scoop. On their journey home, Matt witnessed visits from old friends and family of Astra. First up was a delegation from Monstro City presenting her with a key of sorts, officially designating her place in succession order for ruling Monstro City. This was immediately followed with a young group of heroes, led by Skysweeper, congratulating Astra on her graduation and offering her a position with a new super-hero team they were organizing. These visits increased Matt's insecurity, once again enforcing how different and out of place he was in Astra's world. It reemphasized his mundane, normal, and rather bland background. Eventually the couple made their way back to First Family's Headquarters meeting up with Astra's family. While Matt was curious about their long term future, Astra revealed that she was taking them both to a very special place that very night. An area called the Gordian Knot. Astra showed Matt various locations in the Knot, and more new people, including another former boyfriend Prince Gavrad. As Astra went out she couldn't continue the charade, as she knew all along that Matt was feeding the Inside Scoop all along for the past two weeks. Matt explained that he never seemed privy to Astra's plans for the future and if he was going to be a part of them. His insecurity and weak character lured him to accepting a big money offer from the Scoop if he would feed them private details about Astra, her family, their relationship to feed their prying gossip shows. They even offered a huge flat sum if he could revealing video of then in a sexually compromising situation. Matt attempted to save face by cheering up Astra but the damage had been done. Following their break up and his return to earth, he further damaged his now low standings with the Furst Family, by falsifying stories of what he and Astra did while visiting the Gordian Knot. It provided lots of sensationalist grist for the slimy producers and hosts at the Inside Scoop.
ObservationsMatt's an idiotic fool and an absolute sleaze. He'll do well in the business world.
