Origin
Mathew Rider was given great power by an ancient sentient artifact called the Crimsyn Star. It destroyed Mat's original body to rebuild it as a perfect receptical for the Star's energies. The Crimsyn Star infused Mat's new body with enormous mystical energy. This energy is what gives Mat his powers. After the infusing, Matt woke up in Chiron Medical Center. He had been gone a month and was pronounced dead. During the hospital stay, Hero Corps contacted Mat and told him that they knew who he really was and that he seemed to now be hero material. They offered to train him and give him a job working for them. Realizing how underprepared he was for the life of a hero, Mat accepted the offer. Thus Mathew Knight, secret identity of Crimsyn Knight was born.

Personality
Being infused with the mystical energy of the Star seems to have broken Mat out of his proverbial shell. He is not extremely outgoing by any means, but he is willing to talk more and do more than he ever was before. Being previously a loner who only tutored kids in computer science class this new social life is still a bit frightening to him.
That being said, Mat is finding the life of a hero to be exciting and now believes that this was indeed his destiny as the Star said. Smiling and having fun no longer seem to be an anethma to Mat and with the steady income provided by Hero Corps, he is actually thinking of going out more to the bar.
Generally in a good and never one to let things get him down, this new and improved Mat is definitely a change and one Mat is truely glad happened.
Powers
The Star's energy granted Mat numerous abilities he could only dream of before.
Strength.
Mat is now incredably strong. Able to lift up to four tons in a single press, Mat could then throw the load about the distance of a football field. Anything more than that taxes Mat greatly and he needs time to recover.
Nigh Invulnerable
This is not true invincibility. Matt can still be hurt, it just takes alot more than normal to hurt him. He is highly resistant to all forms of damage. Bullets do bounce off of him and knives and such have little to no effect. High forms of heat or cold, energy or negative energy, or some such do much less damage to Mat. His body also heals at an incredible rate, undoing the damage he does recieve almost as soon as it is taken.
Flight
Mat can fly at incredable speeds. In atmosphere he can reach speeds of up to Mach 2, though he will not travel that fast in populated areas. It is unsure what his speed is outside of the atmosphere as Mat is hesistant to travel that high. It is also unknown if Mat is even able to survive without oxygen. Mat, for obvious reasons, is reluctant to test it.
Energy Manipulation
Mat is able to focus the Star's power into various forms. He can use it to increase the effectiveness of his attacks. The potentacy of the energy is enough to stun or disable most foes in one or two hits. Matt can also focus the energy to fire small beams of power from his eyes. This attack is not very powerfull, but does add a certain distance to what Matt can do. The beams are hot enough to melt through steel, though it would take a long time.
Fiction
Misch.
OOC notes - Crimsyn Knight is actually low level at the moment. The abilities described above are ones that he will have eventually.
- He was created to be sort of a combination of Superman and Captain Marvel from the DC comic universe.
- When he comes into his own, near level 50, his theme song will be "Real American" While he is learning, it is the theme from Greatest American Hero "Believe it or Not".
IC notes - Is still new to the hero thing and knows he is and will make mistakes. Hopes to find a group of people of like mind to help him and mabye guide him.
- Likes Hero Corps and the steady paycheck they provide but is cautious about the fact they were able to learn his true identity. He is very curious as to why they didn't tell anyone else.
- Cannot hold his alchohol very well, couple of beers and he will be very tipsy.
- Only needs to eat once or twice a week now. If he sleeps a couple hours in that time period, he will be refreshed for the entire week as well. The mystical energies of the Star seem to sustain him.
