Early Life
Matt was born in San Antonio, Texas on June 1st, 1993 to his mother, Anne Altieri, and his father, Frank Altieri. His mother was an employee at the Craft's noodle factory before giving up her career to raise her new born son. His father was a captain in the United States Air Force flying the C-5 Galaxy, at the time. Over the course of Matthew's life, he has moved from Texas to Dover, Delaware and from Dover to Fredericksburg, Virginia and attended eight different schools and live in five different homes.

As a child, Matthew was always very kind and caring child who had a wonderful imagination and mind. However, he would often keep to himself since he was somewhat socially awkward with others and was often picked on by bullies. It was during his first year in 1st Grade that his parents noticed that something was wrong and had Matt brought to a local psychiatrist. There he was diagnosed with ADHD, Attention Defecate Hyperactive Disorder, and dyslexia. From that point on, his mother and father constantly tried to help Matthew cope with his disorders through his social and academic career. Since then he has become almost the complete opposite of his former childhood self, being very loud, funny, and happy in who he is today.

In 2005, not long after Matthew's only grandfather, Paul Lee Taverner, passed away, Frank Altieri, Matt's father, filed for a divorce with his mother, due to a mid-life crisis. The movement shocked and broke the hearts and worlds of the other's in the household including Matthew and his youngest sister, "Izzy" Altieri. After four years of marriage consoling and battles in court, Frank and Anne Altieri were divorced in 2009. It was then that Anne, who was working for Aflac at the time, and Izzy decided to move to Lexington, Kentucky, where Anne was offered a better job. Matthew and Frank remained in their old house in Virginia were Matthew continued his high school career at Riverbend High School.

Post-Divorce*
Not long after living with his father (Frank Altieri), Matthew realized that his father had completely changed from the man he once acknowledged as his dad. After enduring a year of an abusive relationship with Frank, Matt and his good friend, Alex Karcher, built an inter-dimensional portal, in order to escape both of their lives not knowing what would await them.

After The Jump
It turns out the portal led to a world similar to Earth called Exopa. Matt and Alex quickly realized that Exopa was Earth's alternate reality double, due to the fact that Exopa's geographical and basic physical structure were the same to that of Earth's. However, Exopa was not ruled by similar laws of physics or science as Earth was. Things such as magic, superpowers, aliens, ghosts, and pineapples under the sea were all real here along with so much more. The planet's historical timeline was also much different to the one Matt and Alex had learned back home, but didn't deter their interests in the slightest. After being romanticized this new world, the boys decided to call it "Planet X", or "X" for short, and decided to explore this new world. However, Matt and Alex were quickly captured by one of the Seven Overlords of Exopa, Darth Exthius. The Seven Warlords were the seven dictators who controlled over all seven continents of Exopa; Darth Exthuis ruled over Northern Amurica. Darth Exthius was very cruel in all his punishments and did not allow anyone in Northern Amurica to perform magic or science, unless they were licensed under him. After discovering that Matt and Alex soon to be known as The Wonder Twins, were from "the other side", Darth Exthuis sentenced them to death by the way of The Arena, a more gruesome and vile version of the Roman Coliseum, but the same principle idea. It was in The Arena's dungeons that The Twins meet their team and long time friends Kaito, Edward, Cloud, Leon, and Amuro.

Together with their extraordinary abilities, the escaped The Arena and Darth Exthius' grasp and hid off in a small ruined and deserted town they would use as their headquarters for their new freedom fright group, The Black Knights. Champion of the People, the Heroes of Freedom, but more commonly, The Original Seven of the Table.

 * Leon the Brave Lion
 * Amuro the All Foreseeing Soldier

The History of The Black Knights
About a week of sneaking and hiding, The Black Knights finally built their headquarters underneath the ruined town. Although it was not exactly up to date and modern, the base, known as The Castle, served as a reliable and ever expanding base. Although Matt and Alex, originally, were not as skilled as the other five, they both studied under each Knight and discovered their own strengths and abilities within this new world. Matt's became a great alchemist, swordsman, strategist, and leader in battle; while Alex became a great scientist, mechanic, marksman, and mage of all types of magic. regardless of their expertise, both boys were excellent fighters when the time called for it.

After things seemed to had quitted down around Northern Amurica, the Kinghts, after long, hard debates and many renovations/expansions to The Castle, finally opened up secret communication lines those who needed help in fighting off the Seven Warlords from their homes. While at first these missions started off small, they quickly grow to the point were not one Knight got much sleep or rest. It was then that they began to start training town's folk, that they saved, to become agents and soldiers of The Black Knights, to ease the burden of requests begin growing an army. And their effort were not in vain. On Augostian (Exopa's version of August) 9th, 3011 ACD (ACD stands for "After Complete Domination", referring to when the Seven Warlords' ancestors took full control of Exopa), The Black Knight were now a full fledged and full-armed army with each Knight leading their own squad:

The Squads & Departments of The Black Knight Army On Septembra 10th, 3011 ACD, The Black Knights declared war against the Seven Warlords of Exopa and vowed never to stop until all of Exopa was free and made their message clear by attacking and capturing the capital of Northern Amurica, The Royal City of D.C. {Diction and Correction), in a manner of only three days. It was from then on that The Black Knights' cry for justice was heard around the world, and cause other rebellions to join their cause a fight in what would be known as The 5 Year World War.

The End of The War & The Return Home
After the Seven Warlords were destroyed, the Black Knights directed their focus on creating a way for Matt and Alex to return home. Thankfully though, the Black Knights had united the entire world of Exopa and was able to find the secret to returning The Wonder Twins back to their reality. As the boys walked through the gate, they realized that all no one would ever truly believe the adventures they had lived and experienced for those six long years.

On December 26th, 2012 in Lexington, Kentucky, U.S.A, Matthew Altieri and Alexander Karcher were found lying face down in the snow by scientists from Karcher Labs Inc. After being thawed out, Mr. and Mrs. Karcher told the boys about how they company had created clones for them while they were gone so that no one ever knew they were gone. On January 1st, 2013, the clones were captured, memories and experience extracted and then placed into the originals. Afterwards, the clones were destroyed and replaced by the genuine articles.

Current Life
Although Matthew currently attends Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia, he barely lives with his father, Frank Altieri, due to his unruly fathering and his very nosey step-mom. During Winter and Summer breaks he usually spends them up with his mother and little sister, Anne and Izzy Altieri, in Lexington, Kentucky where he works full-time at The Fresh Market as a curtsy clerk.

Matthew usually enjoys sleeping in, watching anime, hanging and goofing with friends and family, walking his dog Louie, drawing, sleeping under trees during the warm seasons, singing and making people smile.
