So, I still haven’t had a chance to get involved with a WWWRPG game yet, so I’m going to live vicariously a little through those of you here who have.

What sort of characters have you made for this game? I would love to hear about them. I don’t need their full character sheets or anything, but I’d love to hear a little about who they are and what they look like, what their gimmicks and in-ring style are like, what their entrance music is, stuff like that. I don’t plan on using any of this info for anything, but it’d be fun to imagine a fictional wrestling fed populated by all these new characters that people have been having such fun with. Anyone game for sharing?

I’ll start — when Nathan Paoletta ran a demo of the game, I created “Brimstone”, a young up-and-coming wrestler with a mixture of high-flying and technical skills, sort of a cross between The Hurricane and T.J. Perkins. His gimmick was that he was a gamer geek, who would name his moves things like “DPS” or “Omnislash”, the latter of which was a finisher that included a flurry of high-speed kicks that ended with a double-palm strike to the chest for the knockout blow.

He would pepper nerd culture into his promos, like referring to “grabbing aggro” on someone or “tanking the boss”. He’d wear green and black, with a sort of eldritch flame motif, but also wear a bit of cosplay gear to the ring for spice — but if he went heel, he’d drop the happy gamer approach and go for more of someone who actually thought he was a monster, kind of Finn Balor’s Demon but with the brakes removed and a helpful dollop of obvious delusion.

Anyone else care to take a turn?

Remember Nakamura’s “violin orgy” entrance at Takeover Toronto?

Remember that smoking hot redhead who played the violin over him in the ring?

I just found out what her name is, completely at random, because she commented on a youtube video of that entrance. Brigit O’Regan. She’s made a point of saying that doing that show was the BEST GIG EVER, in her words. And dear god, she’s even hotter when you can see her face up close. Damn.
