“	Ramona's FIRST evil ex-boyfriend! POWERS: Mystical	„
	~ Matthew's intro card

Background

Matthew Patel is Ramona Flower's first evil ex-boyfriend. Matthew Patel's battle takes place at the end of World 1 in Club Rockit. In the game, Matthew wears a black jacket instead of his usual tan one and has a total of about 180 HP. A lot of his attacks are usually weak melee or fireballs. Since he's an early level boss, it's not necessary to be at any high level to face him (in fact, higher leveled characters can deal with him in no time at all). His boss battle goes in three patterns, he starts off with simple melee attacks. After he takes enough damage, he summons an energy pillar around him and his demon hipster chicks will fly around it. Scott and co must defeat all four of the demon hipster chicks before the fight may progress. After the player beats them, the fight continues as normal, though near the end, he'll summon two of them again, where they will pop in and out firing magic blasts on the players as they try to fight Matthew. The team can either take them out before finishing the battle or just focus on Matthew where his defeat will cause them to disappear. By this point in the battle, Matthew becomes more aggressive, but is otherwise still manageable. Once beaten, Matthew will explode in a burst of light. Like in the book, the player gets $2.10 in coins once he is defeated.

Powers and Techniques

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Martial Arts, Acrobatics, Fire Manipulation (He can shoot massive fireballs from his fists), Summoning (Can summon his Demon Hipster Chicks), Energy Manipulation & Invulnerability (Can create a beam of energy making him temporarily invulnerable to all damage), Sheer Will (Those who can access the powers of Subspace in the real world naturally require a strong will and determination to control them), Subjective Reality & Dimensional Storage (Whatever the user can imagine will be created in subspace. For instance, Scott manifested his love for Ramona as the Power of Love, which he can pull from and store in Subspace), Portal Creation & Summoning (As the powers of the characters originate from Subspace, they can create portals or summon beings and objects from their subspace), Dimensional Travel and Space-Time Manipulation (Characters can manifest doors directly to subspace, or even move between subspace and the real world through sheer force. Breaking the walls between subspace and the main universe)

All previous powers and abilities to an unknown extent. Abstract Existence (Idea, Primordial Source), Regeneration (Low-Godly; Subspace avatars are avatars of pure cognition of one's true self and by extension can be restored by the true form at will), Immortality, Supernatural Resilience, and Unconditional Time Travel (Life and Death Immunity; Concepts such as death are irrelevant to subspace avatars/dwellers as even if one dies they will just be sent into subspace, with spirits being able to freely pass through and from Subspace. Immortal Metaphysical Aspect; All damage done to a subspace avatar means nothing to their true self. Someone like Scott could lose his limbs in subspace and be cut in half and would still be perfectly fine. Reliance; True Self/Person; As the creation(s) in subspace ultimately have no major consequences on the real world self, the subspace avatar can be endlessly created. Even if subspace itself is destroyed, the true self can simply restore it as well. Subspace avatars are avatars of pure cognition created by one's true self and by extension can be restored by the true form at will, regardless of the damage they succumb to) Alternate Replacements (Due to Subspace being an entire space-time continuum directly tied to the user's mind mind subspace is therefore directly linked to the user's entire life, allowing for numerous versions of the same being to exist simultaneously. Furthermore, psychic energies can traverse through the timestream to the present era, further suggesting that mental figments of one's past self can travel through the timestream), Acausality (Irregular Causality; Subspace is a different space-time where all rules are different (including death), thus it should by extension be a different system of causality), Enhanced Perspective Manipulation and Observation (Unconscious Manifestation and Conscious Manifestation; Perception is Law. People, items, and Mind Subspace itself are based on the nature of the person's mind, therefore, however, a person imagines Subspace is how it will appear. A good example is Scott's Dream Desert: this location is repeatedly used as a metaphor for Scott's loneliness but also is his projected image of Subspace at that time which Ramona is able to pass through), Law Manipulation (One’s subspace operates under their rules and systems which can extend even to the real world with characters like Gideon affecting Ramona’s Subspace), Reality Warping and Mind Manipulation (Mindshifting; While Mind Subspace allows for others' own projected images of themselves to take on other forms, the individual whom the Subspace resides in retains all power and control within said mind. Through this, the character can shape themselves and Subspace to their liking all through their thoughts, perspectives, and desires), Power Nullification (A user of Subspace can completely nullify any connection an opponent has in that Subspace, regardless of if they're more powerful or not. This is how Ramona was able to expel Gideon despite him being a master of Subspace and able to manipulate it inside anyone's mind), Dimensional Travel and limited Possession (Subspace users can unconsciously and consciously enter their subspace avatars, even after dying), Power Manifestation (Gideon Graves was able to create the Glow from subspace and use it to directly counter mind subspace)
