I have tossed around A LOT of ideas for Arago and Matt and I always said "fuck it" and abandoned them because I ended up not liking them in the long run. Well, I gave a lot of thought to backstories that I could live with, stories that would never need changing because I feel a connection with them. So I present to you the definitive backstories!


Matt Forest the Wolf

Matt is a lot of things, a warrior, a troubled father, a gay stripper, a mad warlord and a rock star. But how could he be all these things at once? He is considered to be one of the most infamous actors of all time. He's played so many diverse rolls over the years he was considered to be one of the best actors of all time. But because of all these rolls, and constantly working and acting, he started to become lost in who he was. The characters all blended together, and it made his acting skills decline. To put him back on top, his agent tried fixing him up with all sorts of drugs, which actually helped for a bit. But slowly because of all these drugs he developed addictions, and his resulting erratic behavior which made him go from the best actor ever, to the worst, and a pretty big asshole to boot. His behavior spiraled out of control, until he assaulted his wife, and she left him. After that he quit acting, started on a hard road to get clean, and started over as a common customer service rep at a department store. He constantly hides from paparazzi and anyone who recognizes him in shame over what he has done, and attempts to atone for his past sins by being kind and gentle to anyone and everyone.


Arago Kidd the Kitsune

Arago was born a prince of the fox kingdom, and lived a largely spoiled life until his late teens. He didn't like having any sort of responsibility or learning how to be a king when his dad was gone, so one day he left the kingdom to go live a simple life. But when his father died, not even a year after he left, Arago was given no choice but to take the throne. He was an apathetic king, constantly eating to quell his depression about his father's untimely death, until one day he decided to go and visit the outside world again. What he saw was poverty stricken farmers and disease due to his lack of responsibility as their king. Disgusted with himself, Arago attempted suicide, but was saved by a knight in his kingdom, who told him that no one deserves to die, no matter what they've done. Everyone has a chance at forgiveness. So Arago organized a meeting with his father's former advisors, and told them he wanted to change the government to a democracy and step down as king. They agreed it was for the best, and Arago was no longer in charge of anything. However, he was allowed to keep his palace as long as he shared it with the homeless and the disabled, and Arago agreed it was the least he could do. So he took various unfortunate souls and made sure no one would go hungry again using his kingly wealth. He still makes sure he eats like a king though, and it definitely shows...
