I have to admit, i’ve really been digging playing longer series of games with the same wrestler.

I have to admit, i’ve really been digging playing longer series of games with the same wrestler.

I’ve played in 10 sessions now in Lowell’s Gauntlet league wrestling and it’s been great to see how the story arch of the character moves on and how the change of gimmick echoes that.

the wrestler started off as an antihero who came into the league as the masked vigilantee “Anon” fighting the influence of the Leagues on screen owner, the Dastarld Jeremy Bleakwood.

She unmasked herself during the PPV, revealing that she was Jeremy’s Long lost sister, the villainous Clarabelle bleakwood, who had been tricking people into giving up their identities to power her dark magic.

Coming into Season 2 she shifted to the Ace playbook and proceeded to fued with the son of her fathers former Tag team partner leading into a match where both the parents of the wrestlers where in the audience.

Things went south for her when, as a result of a Hard move by Creative, her father had a shoot heart attack during the match, causing her to break character to see to his welfare.

With her father in hospital and with mounting medical fees, she was desperate for additional money to pay the hospital, leading to her moonlighting in her old profession, that of an MMA fighter, taking on the Celebrity Advanced role.

But all is not going well as the injuries sustained during the shoot fights she has done meaning she turned to painkillers to get through matches, shifting gimmick to The Wasted.

Now back in Gauntlet league once again, she promptly performed a face turn, saving her erstwhile enemy from a vicious beating. Announcing that her father is dying and he had regrets about things he has done to his former partner, she, as a dutiful daughter, has formed a tag team with the former target of her fued.

It will be interesting to see where this goes in the three remaining sessions but what i can say so far is phew, what a ride.
