Early History
Matilda was born Matthias Montenegro Vera II, the second-born child and first-born son of Rhea and her husband, Charlie's children. While he was inside his mother's womb, his older sister was "killed" by his aunt Yolanda (however in reality she survived and was raised by The Celestial Court without the family's knowledge). After Effie's "death", his parents moved to Nightshade, California where he was born and after his birth followed fifteen more siblings. During his childhood, he came to realization that he felt he was in the "wrong" skin. During high school, he had a romance with Sonja Morgenstern. At some point, he met and fell in love with Lilly Vera and the couple married and had four children: one boy and three girls. After Madison's birth, Lilly passed away from cancer of the bone. Matthias was favored over all of his siblings; however, he had a falling out with his father over his desire to be a woman. After Charlie threatened to disown him, Matthias faked his death for nine years, recovering from his gender reassignment surgery. During his time hiding, he conspired with his then ex-sister-in-law Trinity to bring down the family and take over the family-owned company.
