Personality

Click to expand.

Brutish:
Clayface is outwardly a tough-guy and he'll play that role to the bitter end. He'll come across most times as unsympathetic. He doesn't take guff from no body. Cross him at your peril.

Overall:
Hagen is direct, brutal, and somewhat taciturn towards others in his current state. Do not expect much sympathy from such a tragic figure. At times he may come across as simple minded but buried deep within that mud lies a deceptively keen mind. No one pulls one over on Clayface and lives... no one!

Vengeful:
Prone to fits of rage Clayface is a very vengeful person. He will not think twice about murdering someone if he feels slighted by them in any way when the mood suits him. With his madness even imaginary wrongs can bring about his wrath.

Victim:
Above everything else, Clayface blames his circumstance on the actions of others. He does not see himself as the one to blame for anything currently happening in his life.

Wistful:
When times are quiet, and his mind is allowed to settle. He is prone to nostalgia for the good old days when he was a famous actor on the rise and gifted with a talent for the thespian arts few could ever match. He was the "man of a thousand faces" on both the Big and Small screens as well as on stage. It is in these times when Mat Hagen surfaces and can spout poetically.

Attributes:
Clayface has enormous strength and can shift many tons of weight depending upon his given mass. He is also gifted with immense endurance and durability.

Duplication:
By the process of fission Clayface can bud off parts of himself. Those parts can then either act indipendently or through direction. Clayface has an almost telepathic connection to all of his components, though range is a factor.

Eidetic Memory:
With a small effort Clayface can remember all that he has seen in perfect detail. He had this ability before he became the monster Clayface. Photographic memory allows him to remember his subjects in excruciating detail right down to the clothing that they were wearing.

Mass-Alteration:
Clayface can alter his mass at will. While there are upward and lower limits to this ability he can create the mass necessary to become whatever he changes into.

Mimicry:
Not only can he sometimes mimic the abilities of those he copies to some extent, but he can mimic the properties of certain substances such as steel and cloth.

Self-Sustenance:
Clayface does not need to eat nor breath. Though he frequently does both either out of enjoyment or habit.

Brawling:
Clayface is a skilled brawler and in combat combined with his ability to shift his shape and mass he is a very dangerous opponent.

Science:
While studying in University he became familiar with the basic sciences including chemistry.

One of his first acts was to break into the Dagget industries plant and abscond with the formula that created him.
