Matieu is a minor law-enforcement figure in the Mistborn series' second era, first appearing as the local captain of the constables in Ironstand during The Bands of Mourning. His role there is brief and functional, offering no wider personal history or arc. He resurfaces only in passing in The Lost Metal, where Constable Matieu is cited as the source of a detail relayed to Reddi, a fleeting mention that keeps him on the edges of the story's constabulary world.

Description

Matieu is a spindly man with a ready smile. The text identifies him as the local captain of the constables in Ironstand, but gives no details of his age, skin tone, hair, eyes, facial features, or uniform. His lean frame and open expression are the only established visual cues. No visual description of Constable Matieu is provided. His age, build, skin tone, hair, eyes, face, and clothing are unspecified; even the details of his uniform are not stated.
