Mathew Hubbard, also known as Ifrit or MattR, is an enigmatic character who has antagonized the players throughout Johnisdead. Mat first appeared in Jadusable's ARG as a high ranking Moon Child. Over the course of Johnisdead, it was revealed that he was responsible for the tragedy that wiped out most of the Moon Children, after which he later joined the Lunar Children. However, even while in the Lunar Children, Mat's loyalties were difficult to pin down, as he often disregarded the Elder Children's wishes and contacted Tenebris in private.

Story

Not much is known about Mat's early childhood. At some point, he and his biological sister, Rosa, were moved to an orphanage. The two were raised here until 1990, when a Moon Children couple - Hank Hubbard and Diana Hubbard - adopted Mat. The couple had previously been unable to have a child of their own, and at this point, they could only afford to raise one child, meaning that Mat had now been separated from his sister. Later that year, however, Diana finally gave birth to a baby boy - Ben Hubbard. Tragically, she passed away during the process, leaving Hank to raise Ben and Mat alone.

Hank adored Ben, resulting in Mat becoming more and more neglected over the years. At some point, Hank had inducted Ben into the Moon Children. In 1998, Hank slowly began to lose his grip on reality, resulting in Luna teaching him the ways of ascension. The Moon Children saw this as blasphemy and he was cast out form the cult. Hank used this time to go and form his own cult, the Lunar Children. During this time, though, Ben remained within the Moon Children as a spy of sorts.

By this point, Mat and Hank's relationship had been soured for quite some time. In 2002, Mat decided to join the Moon Children on his own accord under the name "Rodney R". In order to become an official member, Mat had to carry out one final task - killing Hank. Mat travelled to Hank's house on April 23rd, where he discovered that Ben had already been killed by Hank earlier in the day. Mat proceeded to kill Hank - likely through bludgeoning and electrocuting him. Unexpectedly, this resulted in Hank ascending into Patrem and transcending into one of the Four Giants. Mat reported back to the Moon Children. They were surprised to discover that this proved Hank's previous testimonies about ascension. The cult later decided to lie about the date of Hank's death to cover up this mistake.

Over the next several years, Mat proved himself to the Moon Children and rose through their ranks, eventually becoming one of the administrators on their website, Youshouldnthavedonethat.net (YSHDT.net). At some point, Mat reunited with his sister Rosa. Though she never became a true initiate of the cult, she was still closely involved with them. Under the username "Ifrit", Mat would occasionally post announcements about general happenings within the cult. Events surrounding YSHDT.net are somewhat confusing and unclear, as players from 2016 began interacting with it within various different timelines. The following seems to be the most universal series of events that took place around this time, however:

At some point in 2010, the Blackout occurred. This resulted in several members of the Moon Children including Rosa and Alex going missing. On September 14th, 2010, Mat oversaw the reconstruction of YSHDT.net. Early in the morning of September 16th, players from 2016 began emailing Mat. This confused him, as he hadn't publicly released his email anywhere yet. Regardless, Mat happily obliged to answer any questions, viewing the players as potential recruits. Here, he revealed that he would be holding a "party" of sorts on Sunday, September 19th - a religious "Revival" for the cult. When asked about Hank's body, Mat claimed that he doesn't like thinking about the day he killed his father and that it was a dark time for him. After being swamped with emails, Mat told the players to send their questions to Spencer instead.

The next day, on September 17th, Mat made a general post announcing some work he completed on the site and addressing the sudden influx of new users. He also ended off this post asking other members if they wished to participate in the upcoming party on Sunday. On September 19th, the day of the party, the giant Kelbris arose from his grave and travelled to Mat's home. Here, infused Mat with holy knowledge from Luna - likely Lunar Children teachings and Tenebris's influence. After this, Mat fell into a trance of sorts. He later proceeded to kill off most of the remaining Moon Children, transcending Alex and Spencer in the process.




Personality


Mathew Hubbard

The borrowed son, borrowed from what? What actualization is found in self appointed names? Is hubris to seek to step outside ones self or to fal to far into reflection? A product of the all minds shadow, false son of the Grand Father. Almost as aware as I pretend I am not, capable of working with "mandella effects" not unlike his master, but probably not as good XD

He craves the real realm, what does he think that is? XD
