Matthew Hall

Matthew Hall was a magical revolutionary, previously a computer programmer, in Palaratos in the second half of the first century CE, and Tom's key character in the Mission Cycle. Matthew was already an established member of the Magical Resistance by 43 CE. His main work was hacking, facilitating missions from a strategic command, and recruiting new people; one of his recruits was Mark Haloran in 43. He later recruited Kate Everson, and the two of them started working together, calling themselves Aeque. Aeque broke up sometime before 49 CE when Kate went to work as a spy in the Solas. In 49, Matthew was invited to join Mark's new faction, the Vorsnoir, along with Kate, Grace Serket, Rosie Cawthon and Luke Ryeford.
