Erotic Professional Wrestling Freeform - LGBTQ Friendly - Recruiting

[Crash]

Premise

Malcom Cane has reached an agreement with Elliquiy Entertainment Network to air his new wrestling federation, Midnight Championship Wrestling. MCW is branded as raw, violent and sexy, able to push boundaries that other basic cable wrestling programs cannot.  Malcom Cane has been combing the smaller wrestling federations looking for new talent to build his Midnight Wrestling brand. Midnight Championship Wrestling has promised a block buster opening night like nothing wrestling fans have ever seen. 

MCW Wrestling follows its wrestlers inside the ring and out.  There are cameras everywhere (including the showers) so as soon as the wrestlers are in the studio or at the arena they are on camera.  Cane Enterprises pays there wrestlers very well for this.  Along with the usual wrestling stipulations and matches, MCW specializes in erotica too.  Bondage themed matches, matches with sex toys in play, full on backstage gang bangs, they are all possible and encouraged be management.  Malcom Cane keeps match booking varied and leaves a lot of the titillating match stipulations for the pay-per-views.

(OOC: If you do not wish your character to be booked in these matches that is fine, let me know.)

This is an alternate word were Kayfabe is real.  Wrestling is real.  Wrestlers don’t go backstage and drop their persona. They really dislike each other or fall in love.  They really bust each other open in hardcore or hell in a cell matches.  There really act as wild and crazy as their gimmick says they do.

There are two shows during the week  MCW Unleashed and MCW Nightmare.  MCW Unleashed is the flag ship show.  It has more of your typical wrestling fair ranging from PG to softcore content depending on what is going on backstage or how good ratings have been in the preceding weeks.  The Unleashed set is bright with reds and golds dominating.  Pyrotechnics are in abundance and the entire production screams up tempo and furious energy.  MCW Nightmare is more hardcore in both its wrestling and erotic content.  Purple, blue and silver are the dominant colors and the lighting focused more on the ring, giving it a dark and ominous feel.  Pyrotechnics are more muted and thematic.  Grim determination and survival are the themes Nightmare employs.

Shows

The Game and the Rules

Matches start out with one player in control (notice I said player and not wrestler).  This player is the one that posts.  The player should post all aspects of the match in their post.  Yes, this is god-moding, but necessary to keep the flow.  Remember to make your opponent look as good as you make your wrestler.  If you do not, I reserve the right to have you lose the match and possibly kicked from the game if players grief (anything sexual will have to be approved by the player of the character having the act preformed on them). 

MATCH RESULTS:  Each show will use one statistic to determine the result of the match.  This will be posted in the Show Thread for the week.  You will subtract your opponents stat from yours and add any momentum you have, then take that result and add or subtract it from your roll. The higher ranked player (or whoever the players in the match decide) will make the roll for their finishing move and consult the table below for the results.

FINISHING MOVE ROLL
When you’re booked in a match, roll 2d6.

On a 10+, you hit your Finisher clean. Choose whether you gain +1 Audience, or whether your opponent does. (You cannot use the same choice twice in a row).

On a 7-9, Your opponent makes you work for it. Chose: you win clean, and you both gain +1 Momentum, or win via count out, disqualification or interference, and gain +1 Heat with your opponent.

On a botch {2-6) , choose: you lose -1 Audience (but get the win) or you lose.

Heat:  This is a measure of how popular your feud is with the crowd.  Heat resets to 0 with after each Pay-Per-View.

Momentum: Momentum can be used to modify your next finishing move roll.  It resets after you use it. 

Audience: Determines your ranking.  The more Audience the better ranking.  Audience can only reach 10.  Losing a title drops your ranking 5 points.  Tag Teams Audience is separate from Single Wrestler Audience.
1-4 – Low Card
5-7 – Mid Card
8-10 – Upper Card



FAQ
Will there be a separate Women’s Division?  No. Titles are genderless and open to men or women. 

Can I have more than one characters?  Yes.  The only stipulation to this is that your additional character must be the opposite role of your previous character.  If your previous character was a FACE, your next character should be a HEEL.  The only exception to this is if your character is part of a tag team in which case it can be the same Role as their tag team partner.

Can I play a manager?  Yes, but…. If we do not have a lot of players you may need to create a wrestler too.  There is no point in having managers if we don’t have enough wrestlers to get the game going. If you are interested in the game but don’t know anything about wrestling then being a manager may be perfect for you. 

Can I have a manager NPC?  Yes, They will be like any other npc in game and just used for flavor.

Can I play Triple H…AJ Styles…Asuka…insert wrestler here….?  See post below.

Mace "The Highland Park Strangler" Hunley

Gimmick: Mean Street Anti-Hero
Role: Heel
Hails From: Mean Streets of Detroit, Michigan
Entrance Music: Bulls on Parade by Rage Against the Machine
Entrance & Ring Attire: Gritty montage of the Highland Park Projects with flashes of Mace chocking out opponents.  Highland Park Strangler flashes across the titantron in jagged lettering while Bulls on Parade plays.  Mace strides to the ring to a mixed reaction of boos and cheers while he ignores the fans his title belt slung over his shoulder. When he hits the ring he

Personality & Background: Unpredictable, manipulative and brutal.  Mace has no time for authority telling him what to do.  No one tells Mace what to do.  He is not at all above using underhanded tactics to get ahead as the only goal is to be the top dog, nothing else matters. Life on the streets at a young age made Mace a survivor.  He earned the nickname the Highland Park Strangler in illegal cage fights where he nearly killed a guy with a choke hold.  Mace's time at Can-Am gave him enough discipline to keep him out of jail and a sense of direction for the first time in his life.  That said the street tough is still there and he brings that with him to the ring night in and night out.

Raising on the mean streets of Highland Park in Detroit, Michigan, Mace has run a foul of the law many throughout his youth.  It grew up fighting and was saved from a life in jail by joining CAN-AM Wrestling school.  The streets of Highland Park taught Mace to survive and thrive in a dog eat dog world where being strong wasn't enough.  You had to be smart and tough.  He has been shoot, stabbed, beaten and still he comes out on top.  A true predator on the streets and in the ring.  Mace's wrestling style is brutal, a combination of overwhelming strikes and crippling holds meant to tear down his opponents mentally and physically.  Seen as unpredictable and violent by other wrestling organizations Mace was snatched up by MCW and signed quickly knowing that his attitude and skill would put him in line for a title right away.  Now can Malcom Cane keep the angry pitbull on a tight lease or will his vicious animal get loose and wreak havoc on his organization.  Either way it will make for good ratings.

Thanks for the interest! 

And preference noted.

[WhatLiesAbove]

I'm going to show interest as well....original character with possibly a faceclaim for current/former wrestler if allowed!

[Crash]

Yes that is certainly allowed.

[Cold Heritage]

I'll express my interest as well.

I have a vague concept in mind of an old-school style Russian Communist heel like you had with the Volkovs.

[Crash]

All gimmicks are welcome.

[yuki92]

i'll put my interest here as well...

I think we have some interest so I will get a character sheet up and work on an ooc.

So what would Savy mean in terms of a wrestling match? Like knowing to roll out of the ring when hit by a big move not to get pinned or where the rope is for a rope break?

[Tolvo]

Oh my consider me interested!

Dirty tricks, backstage politics...etc,,etc...Savy is knowing the rules so you can break them.

Oh my consider me interested!

Great!  Glad to see more interest.

I'll get to work on a character soon. I think I actually played a game with this system before.

Okay thanks, it seemed like it could be broad so I figured I'd make sure.

[Crash]

I am not using the full system just borrowed and modified a bit of it to help add some randomness into match resolution.  Most of this is free form.

[Cold Heritage]

What does Rough measure?

[Crash]

What does Rough measure?

Rough moves: Stiff strikes, Hardcore Moves like chair shots, Clothesline’s, bear hugs...etc.  Think of them all in terms of moves types your wrestlers are good at.

Batista would have a high Power
John Bradshaw would have a high Rough.
Rick Flair a high Savvy
Rey Mysterio a high Aerial
Kurt Angle a high Technical
Shawn Micheals a high Agile

[Cold Heritage]

Alrighty, thanks. Here's a first draft of my character. I've left the heat part unfinished for potentially distributing it to other player's wrestlers. Hopefully that's an okay move.

Anton "General Winter" Medvedev

Gimmick: The Red Menace, an unstoppable Russian monster out to destroy America!
Role: Heel
Hails From: The frozen tundras of Smolensk, Russia
Entrance Music: The Red Army Is the Strongest by the Red Army Choir
Entrance: The lights go out. After about a few seconds they come back on, all in red, and Anton makes his way purposefully to the ring. He strides up the ring steps with confidence and purpose, mounts the middle ropes and faces out towards the audience, staring coldly.

Personality & Background: Anton is cold like the Russian winter. He is ungiving and harsh like the frozen tundras of Mother Russia. His heart is strong and proud and it is for the People! Anton believes in the great message of Socialism and seeks to destroy capitalism and its evils with his own two hands! His approach to his match is one of stolid endurance. He can take anything that anyone has to give, and when their pathetic attacks are spent he will take them apart with cold, remote disdain. That is how he earned his moniker of General Winter: cold, icy determination in the face of the most grueling punishment has always been his path to victory. However, there is a certain honour that Anton holds himself to! He fights like a man! Whereas others are all too happy to live a life ruined by corruption and underhandedness, Anton does not stoop to avaricious capitalism shortcuts and skullduggery! No lowblows! No shenanigans!

Anton was born in Smolensk and grew up in the last days of the USSR. Those were not the proudest days for the Soviets, but decades of American intervention and undermining had resulted in the glorious edifice constructed by Lenin, Stalin, and so many other great comrades being transformed into a rotting shell ready to fall at any time. They were hard times and there was much danger as corrupt officials abused their powers to oppress the workers. Anton was drafted as all males were into the Red Army, and there he endured brutal hazing by his superior officers and those senior to him. But Anton endured and took his revenge where he could. It was a dish served ice cold. In his time in the Red Army, Anton was shot, stabbed, poisoned, set on fire, left naked in sub-zero temperatures, electrocuted, and made to fight a bear on three non-consecutive occasions (they were also different bears each time). He also saw action in Chechnya and engaged enemy combatants.

But all great things come to an end. The USSR collapsed, and Anton's term of service in the Red Army ended. He returned to Smolensk and turned to honest labour to earn an honest living, but the new Russia was flooded with gangsters and bankers and men who were both with the newly deregulated free markets. Unchecked avarice and greed saw the people set to starving and labour completely devalued. Anton was forced on more than one occasion to fight for his life to protect a loaf of bread that was his day's wages from thieves. His ability to fight ultimately won him attention from gangsters, who threatened Anton's family if Anton did not participate in underground death matches. To protect his family, he did. When there was no one in Russia left who could challenge Anton, he was forced to fight in Japan in Yakuza sanctioned matches, and some of these made it to television through 'legitimate' Japanese wrestling federations. Anton's family had, meanwhile, passed away from illness, unable to afford doctors or medicine due to rampant capitalism and the dismantling of state medical care in the post-Soviet Russia. Freed from any control, Anton fought for himself and became a free agent in Japan, working high profile matches there against the likes of the Rainmaker and other noted Aces.

Such matches brought Anton to the attention of MCW talent scouts and eventually tapes were shown to Malcolm Cane. The decision was made to bring General Winter to America. The Russian Invasion begins!

Stats:
Power: +3
Agile: -1
Aerial: 0
Technical: +1
Rough: +2
Savvy: -2

Audience:  6

Heat: <You have 3 heat to distribute to any wrestlers (minimum of two).  This is just a level of how into your feud with someone the crowd is.  It will help with booking an likely change depending on the outcome of the match.>

Moves:

Move Set: Anton's style is a simple, straight forward big man style. He weathers the punishment his opponent doles out and fights back with strikes to the midsection and slams that punish the opponent's back. He frequently uses holds like a bearhug or an abdominal stretch to weaken his opponent or capitalize on damage already inflicted to build towards his signature moves and finisher.

Signature Move:  The Prolelariat: A clothesline from hell. The Voroshilov slam: a 360 degree spinning spinebuster, with the opponent elevated by Anton's arms grasping the opponent's midsection in bearhug style.

Finishing Move:  The Iron Curtain: a delayed vertical suplex off the top rope. Often into the ring . . . but sometimes to the ring apron.

Nice!  And yes saving heat until we have some other wrestlers is fine.  You can also pick and npc wrestler to have heat with too.

Absolutely.  Promos, skits, feuds, interviews, run-ins all that stuff.  If you and your opponent have an ending you want for a match go for it.  The roll is more for resolution if you can’t come to one yourselves.

Update: I modified the character sheet.

[Untamed Skies]

Sorry I keep asking so many questions but I was curious a bit of background information on the universe this is taking place in.

Is M.C.W. a up and coming promotion? Or has it toppled WWE? Was WWE ever a thing in this world?

And lastly for now what type of owner is Malcom Cane? Is he like the McMahons where he is heelish and mad with power? Or is it closer to Dana White where he only is concerned with finding the best talent in the world and them driving up ratings? Are there authority figures under him like a GM or anything?

[Crash]

All good questions actually.

MCW is an up and coming organization.  All other wrestling organizations including WWE exist.

Malcom Cane is a ruthless business man.  He can play the heel or the face owner as needed, so somewhere between McMahon’s and Dana White.

I feel that at the moment Malcom has control of both shows.  He has some underlings he uses when needed but no one with real control other than him.  This can change as stories progress.

I have yet to come up with an announcer team up but figure one former wrestler who is probably a heel announcer and one face announcer.  There will be a Spanish announcing team so we have an extra table to put people through if needed.

Forgive my ignorance, and this may have been covered. What's the difference between a FACE and a HEEL?

Face = Good Guy

Hulk Hogan, Sting, John Cena

Heel = Bad Guy

Iron Sheik, Brock Lesnar

But can Hulk Hogan REALLY be a good guy if he cheated on his wife with his daughters best friend?

[Crash]

The persona of Hulk Hogan is very different than the RL Hulk Hogan.

[silentwalrus227]

Ooh, consider me interested.

[InnocentSynn]

Well after some consideration, consider me in.  I'll work on a CS when I escape from the clutches of my gainful employment.

[Crash]

Excellent!  Glad to see you are both interested.

[silentwalrus227]

Are you looking for anything in particular right now? As in, do we need more male or female wrestlers? Heel or Face?

[Crash]

We could use some female wrestlers, but I want people to play what they want.  Same goes with face or heel.

[Crash]

Shows

I will book matches with input from players for each show.  During the show you can cut promos, do commercials, do skits, do interviews and/or have matches.

I will make a backstage thread as well as a locker room thread for the men and the women.

[silentwalrus227]

Sounds good to me! I have a few potential characters in mind, but I don’t see where we figure out stats. Am I overlooking it?

I don’t know, for finishing moves. and the plus, or minus numbers. I maybe speak too soon, I don’t think I know enough, for making good character, sorry. :-(

[Crash]

I don’t know, for finishing moves. and the plus, or minus numbers. I maybe speak too soon, I don’t think I know enough, for making good character, sorry. :-(

Give me all of your questions and we or I can answer. Finishing move is just the really cool move you do to before you pin your opponent.  Do an internet search for "Awesome Finishing Moves" and pick one you like.

The plus minus is more just for conflict resolution if we need it.

So if your wrestler is a brawler you want a plus number in Rough.
If you want your wrestler to jump off ring ropes and do crazy stunts off of ladders and stuff put a plus number in Aerial.

Positive numbers mean...

Power is strength
Agile is a fast and quick wrestler
Aerial is a high flying wrestler
Technical  wrestlers you lots of holds and submissions
Rough wrestlers just maul people not a lot of strategy or complicated moves
Savvy wrestlers cheat a lot and use influence backstage to their advantage


Higher the plus the better you are in those ways. The worse the negative the worse you are in those areas.

Remember that you can always just talk to your opponent and decide the outcome of your match together and ignore any numbers and dice rolling

In the world of pro wrestling more or less everyone has a style of wrestler. You have luchadores that flip and fly about the ring. Muscled up strongmen that beat people into submission. Technical wrestlers that twist you into a pretzel. The best way to describe a 'finisher' is that it's your best move that a wrestler rarely gets up from. If you hit it, usually the match is over and you win. It can be something complex or something really simple.

Intermittently working on my character sheet. Should I post it here or in the roster thread for approval?

I'm having some trouble with the Move Set section, though.

[Crash]

PM it to me.

What is the problem?

[Datawych]

I can't come up with a good description for what I'm thinking of, mostly.

[Crash]

Okay. How did you divide up your stats?  Are you a face or a heel and what gimmick did you pick?

Heel

Power: -1

So cheating quick high flyer.

Move set:  Prefers hardcore match’s that allow her to use everything inside and outside the ring to punish her opponent.  She prefers to use her legs to drop bigger opponents with drop kicks, low blows and enziguri’s. Failing that the ropes are her friend.  Against normal size opponents she isn’t above cheating to gain an advantage and set up her opponents for her signature and finishing moves.

Signature moves: 360 leg drop off the top rope, Springboard cutter

Finishing move: Top Rope Flying Fist (With a pair of Brass Knuckes when she can get away with it.)

[Datawych]

I actually chose signature moves and stuff already, if that helps.

Signatures: Tilt-a-whirl headscissor takedown, satellite DDT

Finisher: West Coast Pop

[Crash]

I was just making an example.  I am glad you got your signature and Fiinisher already.

Move Set is just a general description of what your character likes in the ring.  What they prefer to do when fighting.

The King: Arron Shaw

Gimmick: Self Proclaimed Best in the World
Role: Heel
Hails From: Cleveland Ohio
Entrance Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DelhLppPSxY
Entrance & Ring Attire: Various colored Trunks, matching boots. (Tend to be black or blue) A sleeveless jacket that is normally black leather. Black elbow pads and forearm tape. When not wrestling he wears custom fitted suits.

Personality & Background:

Arrogant and full of himself, in Arron's mind he's the best thing that has ever walked the face of the earth. Always dressing to impress, he wears custom suits, gold watches and drives fast cars. Training since he was a boy, Arron left Ohio the moment he was able to, and went straight to MCW to start his life as a pro wrestler. Always in character, Arron looks at most people like they are beneath him. Fully believing that every title is his or should be in his stable that he hasn't even formed yet. He knows he destined for greatness and every person that gets in the ring with him is simply a stepping stone. He's not afraid to try and manipulate someone to win a match but he also has a code of honor. He won't attack someone before a match, nor will he hold a rope in order to keep someone pinned or put more leverage on a submission. Most dirty tactics such as low blows or eye gouging is beyond him. He'd much rather work a body part until it's useless to his opponents.

Still accepting wrestlers.  First show is underway but a lot of fun!

[RosalindRae]

I've mostly had luck with PM-based games around here, but I've been looking all over for a dice-based wrestling game, and this format is amazing. If I wanted to create a character who was more focusing on being theatrical and getting in the opponent's head, playing mind games and focusing on feints, rousing the crowd, taunts, etc, would that be all under savvy?

[Karma]

Speaking for myself, in order of priority for that kind of play I'd do savvy/technical/agile.

[RosalindRae]

Sounds like where my mind was headed as well! I'll start putting her together.

This is really rules light but savvy covers mind gamed, taunts...etc.  Counters, faints and such would be either technical or agile depending on how you are portraying them.  Mostly the match is narratively done. 

[RosalindRae]

That's actually perfect -- enough rolls/rules to add an element of chance but rules-light enough to have narrative flexibility.

I'll probably post a second soon: Cassidy's half sister, and a face to add for a little more diversity.

Cassidy Costas

Gimmick: Lifelong delinquent
Role: Heel
Hails From: Boulder, Colorado
Entrance Music: Dangerous Moves by Ghost Wolves
Entrance & Ring Attire:
Ring attire
Cassidy struts through an entrance ramp and shrugs her loose-fitting velvet robe from her shoulders. She practices some footwork and shadowboxing while prancing forward, finally stopping to wave for the fans (regardless of whether they are booing or cheering). Finally, she grabs a sign from a fan supporting her opponent and autographs it over her opponent’s name, giving the sign a kiss and throwing it back into the crowd like a frisbee.
She ducks under the ropes and enters the ring, hands on hips and poses for the crowd.

Personality & Background: You know what they say about a cop’s daughter? No? Well, Cassidy intends to get that meme started if it isn’t already a thing. Her father was a decent enough man, but he never could stay with the same wife for long, and Cassidy always resented the moving around and the litany of new stepmothers and stepsiblings. In her teens, she took out her frustrations the only way she knew how: shoplifting, vandalism, drugs, etc. Anything to make her family’s lives more difficult.

But it was in juvie that she found her true calling. It turns out all of those gymnastics and self-defense classes paid off, and every time the hottest gang or the newest inmate tried to pick a fight with her, she came out on top, and it wasn’t long before she started getting offers to continue her fighting career on the outside.
Her family begged her to go to college, but she refused. The money, and the attention, was just too good to pass up. At this point, she’s been wrestling for years, and she doesn’t plan on retiring unless a losing streak finally forces her to.

AJ Lee was one of the better wrestlers in the divas circuit in her time and had a great hook as well.

Hoyeah. She's one of the few I've followed, and I actually know more about MMA-style fighting than about pro wrestling. I'll have a lot to learn, but this seems like a really entertaining way to do so.

Okay, I got carried away. Here's Cassidy's half-sister:

Adeline Costas

Gimmick: The long arm of the law
Role: Babyface
Hails From: San Antonio, Texas
Entrance Music: Put the Gun Down by ZZ Ward
Entrance & Ring Attire:
Ring attire
Adeline jogs up the entrance ramp, throwing her Stetson to the crowd. She pauses to pull a flask from her belt, taking a swig of whiskey, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand and winking to a fan, giving her the flask and then taking her time, slowly marching to the ring and carefully surveying the battlefield. Finally, she climbs a turnbuckle and climbs atop it, smiling and waving to the crowd before dropping an elbow to the mat for show and kicking back up to her feet. She leans in her corner while her fan returns her flask and she finishes it off.

Personality & Background: Adeline was always the good kid, and a protector of the innocent. She’s spend most of her life taking care of troublemakers and protecting the weak from the cruel. Even before she followed in her father’s footsteps and joined the force, she had skinned her knuckles on a bully’s chin more than once.

She tried, even more than her parents, to steer her younger half-sister, Cassidy, away from her path of self-destruction.

Despite her nearly-supernatural patience, she’s lost her cool with the worst of the criminal element she’s faced and, after some unwanted media attention, she’s found herself on an extended paid leave. Idle hands are the Devil’s playground, and it didn’t take Adeline long to realize that she had to find some way of expending her excess energy in her forced downtime. So she decided to check on her half-sister once again.

If she can’t be on the streets protecting her city, then maybe, just maybe some success in the ring can force Cassidy to see the light and stop her criminal ways.

Stats:
Power: +2
Agile: -2
Aerial: 0

Rough: -1
Savvy: +3

Audience:  6

Heat: 1

Moves:

Move Set:  Adeline is a cautious, slow fighter. She prefers letting her opponents tire themselves out while dodging or absorbing their moves, and then taking them to the ropes with slow, calculated, powerful enders.

Stacii Sokolov

Gimmick: Lady война (War)
Role: Babyface
Hails From: Moscow, Russia
Entrance Music:

Immortalized by Disturbed

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Auuqlcom6tM

Entrance & Ring Attire:

Shoulder Pads/Helmet Off In-Ring

Stacii enters from backstage with a stomping gait, and gives a verbal shout of a countdown starting from five, down to zero in rapidity following her steps. She tosses her helmet to the crowd, and makes her way down to the ramp as the music kicks in fully, as it allows her to squat down in reference to a scrimmage of American football. Upon hearing the vocals sound, does Stacii shoot up into a standing call and give a howling roar in time with the bass, and stomps down, signaling a barrage of fire to spout out from alongside the ramp once the chorus kicks. Stacii then rushes the ring, and dives into a slide towards the center of the canvas, and stands up to give a second roar to the crowd. Only then does she run to the south side of the ring, and tears the thin fabric of the shoulder pads as the note holding the word "Immortalized" is timed perfectly. She then tosses the pads ringside, and shakes off to warm up completely.

Personality & Background: Stacii is a very straightforward, honest, and agreeable to a fault, kind of person. Mainly due to the fact that she has always believed in doing two things; the operative notions of being honest outright, and always delivering whatever justice needs to be brought. What better way to do that, then by establishing a certain level of structure to a physical platform that allows her to do both, while centering her focus on exploring her own horizons? Stacii, for as long as she could remember, had a passion for doing what those before her have, and that's wrestling at a professional level. Of course, with her size, strength, and surprising flexibility, the circuit of international wrestling was besieged by her talents. However, the ever dutiful and respectful woman had always been labeled as a "goody two-shoes", and a "princess", though the sheer insults themselves only drove the woman to be that much more promising of a pure soul. Sure, she has her moments of retributive aggression and will lose focus on what matters, but when it comes to the ways of the heart, Stacii knows all too well that the carnality of the sport will never tempt her. Well, completely, anyways. She sees this as an opportunity to challenge not only herself, but her fellow competitors respectively. It is a sport, after all.

Moves:

Move Set: Woman of a Thousand Holds. Stacii likes to be deliberate and methodical with her power, and tries her best to not let her opponent become too decimated. Ever the gladiator, Stacii prides herself in a fair match, often allowing her opponent to catch a breather when need be. She prefers a fight on the feet, and avoids staying on the canvas for too long.
