❁♞chai hansen, male, he/him, thirty-three … #NOBLE // the seven beckon LORD MATHOS TYRELL toward them; a golden, dancer of HOUSE TYRELL. the heir to highgarden feels their soul flay open just as judgement is shackling to a crafty nature, gripping it tightly as mercy fights with spiritedness. traits guidance sees in the dreams of a rebellion with an accompaniment from strength and courage as they offer a saber, curved and delicate, with a golden handle on one end, and a touch of venom on the other. all while innocence encapsulates memories of them — tourney crowns of molten gold, peacock feathered fans flaming years old rivalries, bundles of hemlock dotting the altar of the mother, laughing knights riding through endless mazes — so they are remembered when the unknown flickers into view, dragging them towards their end, death. just death. anything else, he is certain he can bear for the world is not so harsh. death, though, is unknown.

cw lowkey mentions of death and injuries and drink
there is nothing one must know about lord mathos tyrell other than the fact that he is charming, gallant, knightly, and, of course, handsome. he loves a good bit of fun: a goblet of hippocras, a walk through the beautiful gardens of highgarden, a tourney won, a hunt with friends...
if some of these activities lead to the brutal end of any of his friends, that may or may not leave him with a scarred mind and some secrets to keep. it happens to the best of us, and mathos is, in fact, among the very best of us!
the title of heir to the reach may have been given to him based on nothing but the woman he was born to, but mathos will have you know he has worked very hard during his years squiring in king's landing, and that his knighthood was earned and not gifted. now, tourneys also have their sacrifices, a scar here, lack of mobility there, some brutal ends if you are not good enough...mathos is good enough.
nothing can weigh him down. he has never fallen into the throes of sadness, and he never will. life is peaceful, wonderful, meant to be enjoyed. he will enjoy it to the fullest. his mind is not a horse running in circles with plans of anything, at all, ever, actually. only think of the good. he loves his family (his mother is the most beautiful woman in westeros; it is known.); he adores his friends (all of them, even those who are no longer with us..............). the world is the garden in his backyard.
if you see a knight laughing, dressed in armor of gold, say hello! he may give you something beautiful.
