(   MATSUKAWA VERSES   )

High School ( Default )

Takes place anywhere between his first and third years of high school. When he first begins high school, he is far more shy and reserved and frequently the subject of bullying that followed him from junior high. After meeting Hanamaki, Oikawa, and Iwaizumi, however, he gradually breaks out of his shell and becomes the dry-humoured jokester, albeit he still carries something of an intimidating presence. He begins to develop schizophrenia right around when he turns eighteen and struggles to deal with it.

College

Matsukawa has started college to study mortuary science and dabble in a bit of forensic pathology for shits and giggles. He's always had a fascination with dead things, so why not make a career out of it? He mostly keeps to himself these days, but he's still more than happy to hang out with his friends and take advantage of the college lifestyle to make stupid decisions.

Mortician

Now a full-fledged mortician (and having been registered as an official minister, in case you were curious), Matsukawa is all business...for the most part. There will always be a side of him that can't resist pulling a macabre prank or two when the opportunity arises.

Necromancer

A 188-year-old Shadar-kai, Matsukawa hails from the Shadowfell, but has since ventured in the Material Plane as a necromancer to "broaden his horizons", as it were. He carries a dreadful aura with a noticeable impact on the world of life around him, but that didn't stop him from wanting to explore the Material Plane for all it had to offer.

Greek Mythos

Matsukawa is the demigod of the titaness Styx, goddess of the Underworld river by the same name. He possesses the power of oath-binding, wherein any promise made by or to him is binding and an unfavourable fate will befall those (himself included) who break those promises. In addition, he can summon forth the souls of oath breakers from the Underworld and tamper with others' dreams while they sleep. He is a frequent vessel of ghostly possession and carries a curse placed upon him by Styx herself for breaking a promise that was meant to fulfill a prophecy. This curse causes him to transform into a grotesque sea monster when submerged in water.

BNHA

Matsukawa is a villain known as "Phantom" with a Quirk called Possession. He can possess another's body by entering a black smoke-like state and control their movements. The host's eyes will exhibit black sclerae and bright blue irises. The host may be able to resist the possession, expel Matsukawa from their body, or trap him inside it, with power of will. Any damage sustained by the host is sustained by Matsukawa as well (if the host dies while he's possessing them, he dies too). If the host is knocked unconscious or falls asleep, Matsukawa is expelled from their body by force.
