Personality:
Matt is very perverted, often expressing his sexuality. He's always going after girls strong, and is hardly subtle. This is seen in his raps, where he often expresses himself. Being someone who's suffered alot, he always speaks his mind, knowing he might not get another chance. However he is not a bad person, simply misguided, while he never sugarcoats his conversations, he is never intentionally rude.

However he does tend to abuse his abilities, using them for pleasure and personal gain. He does not care to hide his abilities, and can be quite public with his displays of power. However he does not have an antagonist nature, he often simply shows off to impress women, however he can still be deemed dangerous due to his flashy nature. He does however have a good heart, as he does want to punish criminals, due the fact that one killed his mother.

He is willing to help others, but when he is in trouble he tends to flee. He does not like owning up to his mistakes, and often blames others, or comes up with convenient excuses. He does have anger management issues, and can get upset quickly, especially when his family and friends are insulted, or harmed. He will do whatever it takes to protect them, even if it means coming into conflict with and harming innocents.

Powers:
Pym Particles: Matt was involved in a chemical spill filled with pym particle's allowing his body to constantly generate them. As such he can manipulate them with concentration. However overuse of his abilities can lead to mental instability, or a complete break-down. Other consequences include rapidly changing sizes, or being trapped in a current size for hours, and possibly days depending on how much he pushes his limitations.

Size Reduction: Matt has the power to reduce himself to the size of an ant, approximately one-half inch in height. He does not have to reduce himself to ant size, and can reduce himself to any size he desires. With the decrease in size he looses mass, and as such when reduced to ant size, he can be crushed as easily as an ant, making this ability extremely risky. He can also reduce himself to microscopic sizes if he so chooses, and can even become sub microscopic allowing him to enter a subatomic universe, or the microverse.

Size Addition: Matt's Pym Particles which interacted with his brain to enable him to grow to gigantic height. The growth process required the rapid acquisition of bodily mass, presumably from an extradimensional source. This extradimensional mass fortified all of his cellular tissue, including his bones and muscles, enabling him to support his increased weight, and giving him superhuman strength. He is capable of growing from a few inches, to heights exceeding even the tallest highest buildings in New York.

Exterior Size Modification: His pym particles allow him to reduce, and add mass to other objects aside from himself. However he has to have some sort of physical contact with what he is altering he can for example make a car toy sized, or make it into monster truck size, by touching it, and can do the same to other people. But if he is touching a building, he can reduce the entire building in size, including people, and objects within in it. If his feet are planted on a road, he can "connect" to the other objects, and lifeforms on the road, and modify. their mass.

Enhanced Strength, and Durability: When he grows to gigantic proportions his strength and durability increase tremendously. He gets to the point that he can demolish entire armies without receiving any sort of injury, and he can tear skyscrapers, and bend them like plastic foil. He is not however immune to pain, but things such as bullets will not penetrate his skin, and only feel like small pebbles being thrown at him.
