WHAT BRINGS YOU TO UPRISING?
Jade's story doesn't start in a wrestling ring. Her story starts in Hollywood, with a dream. A dream that she never achieved. Hoping to be the "Next Big Thing", Jade starred in a number of commercials for mostly embarrassing products, but never could break that ceiling getting her onto the big screen. Reconnecting with her best friend from High School, the two years her junior Alexis Lemon, Jade's interest in wrestling was peaked when Lexi described it as being a larger than life personality on a worldwide stage. Leaning on her Krav Maga night class training, which she's actually quite proficient at, Jade looks to join her best friend inside the ring, and rise to stardom, one way or another!
PERSONALITY OVERVIEW: Jade has no filter, and always gives people her smile first, and it usually takes offending her multiple times to get on her bad side permanently.
STRENGTHS: Mic skills. A drama kid in high school, and a trained actor, Jade's an amazing speaker.
WEAKNESSES: Rookie wrestler. Despite her self-defense training, Jade is still learning her way around the wrestling ring from her best friend Alexis.
WHY THEY'D BE CHEERED: Jade can connect with an audience quite easily thanks to her drama training. She plays things up for the fans, and is more than willing to do whatever it takes to make them smile.
WHY THEY'D BE BOOED: Again, Jade is green as grass in a wrestling ring. Botches are bound to happen. She's also got a bit of a temper, so if someone frustrates her, she's been known to get angry and lash out.
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.
- 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.
ATTITUDE TOWARDS TEAMWORK:
- TOTAL TEAM PLAYER: Your character will team with anyone, even if they don't share a common interest or goal. Appreciates the benefits of friends and allies.
TENDENCY TO CHEAT:
- Rarely
THEME SONG: 'Diva' – Beyoncé
WRESTLING EXPERIENCE: 0
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 TECHNICIAN: Relies on a catch-as-catch-can style of wrestling, featuring a variety of suplexes, submission holds and ground-based wrestling.
MATCH TENDENCIES: Pleasing the fans comes first, winning the match comes second, not getting her head knocked off is a very close third.
BACKSTAGE TENDENCIES: Very personable, always smiling and willing to talk with anyone who approaches her.
FIGHT-ENDING STYLE:
- OUT-WRESTLING: Beats the opponent using their preferred wrestling style.
- SUPERIOR STAMINA: Uses their superb conditioning to wait for the opponent to tire, before ending the fight on their terms.
IN-RING STRENGTHS:
- Joint manipulation: Jade utilizes her Krav Maga training to focus on her opponents joints, locking in painful holds.
- Superior Athleticism: A varsity volleyball player in high school, Jade led her team to the conference playoffs on multiple occasions.
- Smack Talk: Jade's ability to talk can throw an opponent off their game, allowing her to gain the upperhand.
IN-RING WEAKNESSES:
- Rookie Experience: Jade's ring awareness is... not her strong suit. Pins and submissions to close to the rope, getting backdropped over the ropes, things of that nature? Tend to happen to Jade at the worst times.
- Fiery Temper: It takes a lot to get under Jade's skin, but if you do, it never works out in her favor. She loses focus, and tends to make mistakes in her rashness.
- Aerial Target: Despite her years of volleyball playing, Jade's last intuition is to look up, making her susceptible to high flying maneuvers.
