Mattheo embodied the quintessential "fuck the world" attitude of many teenagers. At times, you'd catch him indulging in the soothing embrace of a cigarette or playing hooky from class. However, if one were to look closer, they'd discover a young man willing to sacrifice his life to protect those he cherished, especially his friends and family.

The other students at the Salvatore School could savor their teenage years, if only for a brief respite from their extraordinary supernatural burdens. At least, that was the way it used to be. The recent addition of a troubled werewolf and his loyal human companion expanded the boundaries of the supernatural world as everyone knew it. Previously unimagined creatures began appearing, intent on retrieving seemingly random relics from the school.

It turned out that these enigmatic invaders were mystical soldiers, driven by an unending abyss of black sludge known as Malivore. An ancient, malevolent entity capable of erasing one's very existence upon engulfing them.

At this juncture, Mattheo barely had time for homework amidst his preparation for battling these menacing forces. The weight of responsibility pressed heavily upon his shoulders, squeezing his chest like a wet rag being wrung out. While the Salvatore School served as a sanctuary from the cruelty of the outside world, it couldn't shield its students from the relentless onslaught of monsters. Only a select few possessed the expertise to confront these marauding creatures, scouring the boundaries for mysterious artifacts to return to Malivore. Although the frequency of these incursions had lessened, Mattheo found himself the solitary guardian of the school. It wasn't that Lizzie or MG lacked the strength, but lately, they were preoccupied with their own challenges, leaving the olive-toned young man to defend the school single-handedly.
