Matthew Flash

Matthew Flash is the main protagonist of Elemental Squad. His element is Light, and he wields a magical camera that has been passed down in his family for generations.

Appearance
Matthew's most notable appearance trait is his short height of 5'2. He also wears thinly rimmed glasses, and both of these traits have left him feeling rather unappealing. He has an average length of brown hair, with short bangs. He also has brown eyes that seem to glow bright gold from time to time. Matthew is seemingly always pale, even after long periods of time outside.

Personality
Like all members of Elemental Squad, Matthew possesses unique character traits. Even before his Photokinesis took place Matthew's main personality is seen as smart, realistic, pessimistic, whiny, and ungrateful, yet also brave and heroic.

Matthew also suffers from self-pity, believing several bad things happen to him only. Which he will then proceed to complain about, to the annoyance of some others.
