Biography

After Oliver Queen stopped Chien Na Wei from selling the Omega, General Shrieve told Oliver he had to return to China for a debrief, in return, he would allow Oliver to go wherever he wished. Upon finalizing Oliver's debrief, Shrieve kept his word and allowed Oliver to go anywhere he wished, but he had to go to Japan with the Yamashiro's first. It turns out, while Oliver is infiltrating an A.R.G.U.S. field house, General Shreve had held Amanda Waller prisoner. He thought that Hong Kong was a military threat and was planning on using the Omega to destroy the city.

Personality

Matthew was shown at first to be a man of honor, letting Oliver and the Yamashiro's go once their business was done. Matthew also at first shown good morals as he removed Amanda Waller's authority as the leader of A.R.G.U.S. for committing unspeakable acts. But in reality he is manipulative and a lair because he sent men out to kill Oliver and Maseo's family. He also held Amanda Waller hostage and probably tortured her. He is probably as sociopathic as Amanda Waller if not more so in his pursuit of his goal to wipe out China that he believes to be a major military threat using the Alpha/Omega viruses that would kill thousands of innocent people.
