Hmm, is there a one-word French translation for "annoying little bugger who sits around in crazy locations making it difficult for anyone whose controller buttons aren't working properly"?

Nothing on Word. Perhaps it's a really old English word.

Re: Ranks
I meant that it's used in both French and English to describe the creature, but it's obviously not an English word ^^ It's actually the phonetic transliteration of the French word m'as-tu-vu, which can be translated into show-off.
Re: Ranks
That is an interesting choice for naming the character.

I don't know just a guess, but Matyuv isn't from an English originated country so I don't know..
