Matilda (Yoshifan1219)

' Matilda''' is the fifth bird to join and become a core member of the Flock. She is the motherly figure to them all and is a master chef.

Personality
Matilda is a very considerate, caring character, often taking on a mother-like personality in the flock. Matilda is often taking care of The Blues. While she does bear these qualities, she is additionally a very fierce bird, who is shown to have the capability of being very angry as the other birds.

Matilda is a very friendly bird always looking out for a bird in need. Her kindness has helped many birds and pigs, especially The Blues. Matilda has an adoration for peace, often being considered a "hippy" in many animations. She also grows her plants, from flowers to vegetables. She is also shown to be a very skilled saxophone player. Matilda loves cooking but isn't very good at it. It is especially hurtful when the other birds do not like her food, as they all try to dispose of it in some way.

History
Little is known about Matilda's history before the events of the first Angry Birds game or how she acquired the ability or skills to drop explosive eggs.

In the course of the battles with the Pigs, she has traveled to many different locations and environments, including the desert, underground caves, and beaches. The Pigs never rest in their quest to steal eggs and the Flock often has to retrieve their eggs on holidays and special occasions. In one instance, the Pigs captured the entire Flock, including Matilda. It was only for the actions of Terence, the Big Brother Bird that the Flock was freed.

At an indeterminate time later, the Flock was captured as rare birds and taken to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil where they fought with Blu, Jewel and their friends against Nigel the cockatoo and Mauro and his marmosets. Bomb and Matilda did not appear originally in Rio but arrived shortly after the others, so it is possible they were not captured originally and made their way to Rio to find Red, Chuck, and Jim, Jay and Jake.

In addition to Rio, Matilda has also traveled to Japan and China twice, where she wore a geisha costume.

In another adventure, many of the Flock were whisked into Space via a wormhole, gained superpowers and fought the Space King and the Space Pigs. Matilda and Hal appeared to be left behind.

Ability
Despite being one of the largest of the birds, Matilda is weak in physical strength. The egg bombs she deploys have decent power but suffer from a short blast radius and tend to be overestimated in their effect on the structure.

Once the egg is dropped, Matilda's corpse then flies up and explodes to the right. Additional damage can be done to the fortresses if the egg is dropped in such a way that it launches the corpse into the structure. This can be used purposely in multiple levels, and the speed that she is launched at will allow her to become a bit stronger.
