PERSONALITY OVERVIEW: Hot and she knows it, she is not afraid to use it to her advantage. She is very close to her friends, but can be freezing cold to anyone else. She definitely is the hothead of the faction.

WHY THEY'D BE CHEERED: Flexible/athletic, beautiful, and will show it off, high flying = fun to watch, when/if alone, not that bad
WHY THEY'D BE BOOED: Dirty Fighter at times, Mean, Annoying, By association
REASONS TO COMPETE:
- STEPPING STONE: Your character sees wrestling as a gateway to bigger and better things for them within their career, such as acting or modelling; something else within the public eye.
- GLORY: Your character is all about winning and cannot stand to lose. It sends them into a rage. They have to be the very best and they'll stop at nothing – for better or worse – to achieve that.
- MONEY IN THE BANK: Your character wants to be rich beyond their wildest dreams and sees wrestling (coupled with endorsements and celebrity status) as a means to achieve that.
- PASSION: All your character has ever wanted to do is wrestle. It's in their blood; their DNA. They eat, breathe and live this sport and for them it's a way of life.
ATTITUDE TOWARDS TEAMWORK:
- INNER CIRCLE: Your character will team with a select few ONLY. Outside of that small circle, they'd be considered anti-social, but within their group, they're fiercely loyal.

- Often

VALET/MANAGER: Faith Jensen, Patience Winters
VALET/MANAGER FACE CLAIM: Lauren Dascalo, Julia Rose
VALET/MANAGER PURPOSE: Distractions/ tactical advice
WRESTLING EXPERIENCE: None (year 1)
WRESTLING STYLE:
- THE SPORTS ENTERTAINER: Relies on their charisma and showmanship to mask their limited wrestling ability. They can fight, but not to the level of some of their more skilled peers.
- THE LUCHA: Relies on superb speed and agility, as well as a chain wrestling form of free fighting that wows the audience and bamboozles their opponent. Impressive displays of acrobatics render the need for power and force obsolete.
- THE AERIALIST: Relies on speed and aerial prowess to overwhelm their foes. What they lack in size and brute strength, they make up for in agility and accuracy.
- THE SPOT MONKEY: Relies on shocking high spots, daredevil antics and dangerous risk taking to compensate for lack of technical wrestling ability. Will put everything on the line to entertain fans and overcome the challenger.
- THE STRONG STYLIST: Relies on hard-hitting (often stiff) moves and sharp strikes. Whether it's punches, chops, kicks, throws or submission holds, this fighter wants to hit hard, hit fast and hurt their foes.
- THE ALL-ROUNDER: Combines a variety of styles from different disciplines to disable and defeat their opponent.
MATCH TENDENCIES: Use speed, stay moving, look for openings.
BACKSTAGE TENDENCIES: Practically never alone, with her girl(s) or the beautiful people.
FIGHT-ENDING STYLE:
- OUT-WRESTLING: Beats the opponent using their preferred wrestling style.
- CEREBRAL: Overcomes the opposition through intelligence, ingenuity and superior ring psychology.
- SUPERIOR STAMINA: Uses their superb conditioning to wait for the opponent to tire, before ending the fight on their terms.
IN-RING STRENGTHS:
Crafty: She’s an opportunist who looks to capitalize as certain advantages present themselves. She isn’t the biggest or strongest so she has to be smart about when and how she strikes. If she has an opening she will take it
Elusive: You can’t beat what you can’t catch, and she might even come flying back at you with springboard or aerial attacks.
Durability/Endurance: She’s able to contort and bend in all sorts of ways. She is able to withstand pain better than others, though you might not assume that from the way she carries and presents herself.
IN-RING WEAKNESSES:
- Size/strength: She’s not the biggest dog in the fight, and eventually she will get caught. Not strong
- Inexperience: Prone to rookie errors
- Temper: Carmen is very proud and vain at times. Whether she is frustrated you won’t stay down, or fuming because you embarrassed her, Carmen can be easily angered. Angry fighters aren’t always the smoothest operators.
