SUMMARY

As the ultimate boss of Villain League Psi (VLΨ), a mysterious and intimidating figure, the most feared mad scientist in the history of any villain league ever... nobody would expect Professor Nightshade, a.k.a. Mattias Drake Howe, to be such a damn useless pervert. He literally founded VLΨ after watching some anime and passing all his chemistry/biology classes in college. His biggest dream is to form a team of villains strong enough to take over the world... but this team has to consist only of villains who make use of popular anime tropes. This bizarrely particular choice has led to a very small staff aside from the usual goons, which is kind of good news for most heroes.

Despite being an incompetent otaku, under Mattias's jurisdiction, VLΨ has made a name for itself in the world. Matt himself has been named as a level 8 threat by the League of Heroes, bumping VLΨ to the spot of 2nd most dangerous villain organization on Earth. Moreover, all of the members receive some sort of fan mail on a weekly basis from rookie villains and the occasional smitten civilian. It's gotten to a point where VLΨ had to hire a mailman who would work for them personally to prevent their base's location from becoming known to any heroes.

Professor Nightshade himself is also highly regarded in the underground world of villains. His work with monster creation is second to none, and his villainous aesthetic he puts into his work is unique with an occasional touch of the perfect perverted flair. His usual look is glasses, an eyepatch over the left eye, and a lab coat, but when he goes out as a civilian (usually to get a drink or hang out at a casino) he just wears a suit and a long black unbuttoned coat.

PERSONALITY

As can be inferred from his choice of most members of Villain League Psi, Mattias is an insufferable otaku all too obsessed with creating a comedic team of villains who embody anime cliches. He occasionally suffers from nosebleeds and will rig the uniforms of higher staff for a wardrobe malfunction once in a blue moon, only leading to... more nosebleeds. Unfortunately for him, his subordinates are aware of the master scientist's perverted scheme and are putting him on antidepressants to lower both his depression and sex drive.

While he appears for the most part to be a dork who lives for the weekly beach days with his villain league, the professor gained his status and title for a very good reason. Nobody could be a more pure representation of a mad scientist than Mattias. He has very few morals, his creation of monsters has proved to be incredibly strong, and his evil laughs (which he practices) are absolutely on point and bone-chilling. With his extreme lack of empathy and sanity, Mattias rose quickly in the villain ranks while creating a nearly unstoppable army of hellish monsters (and beautiful ones as well).
