CHARACTER IDENTITY
ALIGNMENT: Lawful Evil
CROWD RESPONSE: Primarily Negative
PERSONA(S): Phoenix Fatale — After spending her entire career fighting to show the world how kick-ass women can be, Athena Veronica has grown tired of the thankless endeavor. Giving into the persistent persuasion of her partner, Neo Verlice, Athena is now convinced she has held herself back from reaching her full potential, all in the name of women who do not offer her the same respect. Whereas she once believed women shouldn’t tear one another down, Athena now cares only to tear one another apart. Ready to take the next step in her career, Athena has forsaken her past raison d’être and now competes to prove she is a cut above the rest. She’s spent her career trying to make her late mother proud, now it’s time to make herself proud.
NON-WRESTLING INSPIRATIONS: Carpenter’s Cordelia Chase, Dickens’s Madison Clark, Dushku’s Faith Lehane, Heigl’s Isobel Stevens, King’s Carrie White, Larson’s Carol Danvers, Oh’s Eve Polastri, Swank’s Maggie Fitzgerald, Wright’s Claire Underwood, Pompeo’s Meredith Grey
ENTRANCE THEME: “The Phoenix” by Fall Out Boy
MANNERISMS: Will lower knee pad before delivering a premeditated OTS. Will point to the sky before attempting the Flight of the Firebird or Act of Goddess. Vocally expressive during matches. Constantly chiding her opponents under her breath. Will stand with her hands on her hips, head tilted slightly aside, and eyebrow cocked skyward. Looks out on the crowd incredulously after early flash counters; will slowly adjust her gear on her way to her feet after late flash counters. Will often scream from exertion while applying submissions.
TAUNTS: Will lift her arms into a t-pose with her palms extended skyward while swaying her hips; then she’ll hinge at those hips and tuck her right arm along her midsection to offer a theatrical bow, her eyebrow flashing upward in the process (will flip hair back before lifting eyebrow). This is often done more than once throughout the duration of a match. Will blow a sarcastic kiss toward a rising opponent before attempting a strike. Will lift a hand next to her head with her fingers curled into the shape of talons in various contexts. Will scoff at an opponent and extend her hand while curving away from them, as if inviting them to file their complaint with the hand.

STYLISTIC DETAILS
ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS: Deceptively Decent
FAVORITE WEAPON(S): Her Legs
STIPULATION SPECIALTIES: Well-Rounded
TENDENCY TO CHEAT: Has never done so before, but who knows?
MOTIVATIONS FOR COMBAT: To make up for lost time from when she ‘held [her]self back’. To establish a career resumé she’ll be able to look back on with pride. To maintain her partner’s interest.
WRESTLING STYLE: Striker | Technical | High-Flyer | Submission Specialist
PRO COMPARISONS: AJ Styles, Bryan Danielson, Charlotte Flair, Dakota Kai, Kota Ibushi, Sasha Banks, Seth Rollins
TECHNIQUE NOTES: As taught by her mentor Ana Somnia, Athena typically begins matches with Leg Kicks as she assesses her opponent’s level of intended pressure (often throwing in other strikes of her own after enough damage has been done to the front leg of her opponent). After shifting focus from the leg to the skull, Athena usually headhunts until the opponent’s reaction-time is stifled. At that point, she resorts to her power-based arsenal, often transitioning from there to the submission game. Utilizes her aerial arsenal most often to shift the tide or control the pacing of a match.
STRENGTHS:
» SPONGE: Athena has always been an athlete but it’s her mind that makes her athleticism special. With a studious background of a degree from Stanford, where she played collegiate volleyball, Athena’s ability to study her opposition and formulate gameplans is one of her most potent strengths. Whether it’s a teammate, romantic partner, or rival, Athena can learn from and adapt her style in the ring to effectively combat or imitate what she sees. It does not take long for Athena to nail down what her opponent does well, and when she does, the opponent must change up their gameplan if they want to beat her.
» SHARPSHOOTER: Learning from such legendary strikers of the industry as Graham Baker and Kai Stevens, Athena is a potent and powerful artist with her strikes. Said strikes typically originate from her legs, as they comprise the majority of her body and offer her an insane reach advantage, especially against women of average height. She is also capable of delivering effective strikes from any number of precarious positions; in other words, she doesn’t need to have perfect footing or have set up a strike perfectly to still deliver a lethal blow. When she fires a strike out, she rarely misses. When she does miss, it proves costly. Her striking accuracy and power are elite.
» CONVICTION: No matter her cause, Athena believes in her perspective with every fiber of her being. She will die for her beliefs, and she always believes what she is doing is right, even when it probably isn’t. Her dogmas essentially serve as a reserve tank, fueling her efforts beyond what might be expected of her. Her fervor often proves more severe when her opposition also stands in opposition to her beliefs. Most importantly, however, Athena’s conviction has been illustrated through her lengthy but storied and hard-earned climb to the upper echelons of the business; she started out as a sidekick and in developmental territories and has worked her way into becoming somewhat of a household name.
WEAKNESSES:
» OVERRELIANCE: Athena’s two primary avenues toward victory involve a power-based offensive and predominantly leg-based strikes. As a result, an opponent can severely limit her offensive output by targeting her plant leg (or her legs in general). By weakening her leg(s), an opponent can effectively leave her defenseless and without the ability to return fire. Even the aerial- and submission-based elements of her repertoire would be limited (if not eliminated outright) by targeting her leg(s). She has yet to develop the versatility to her game necessary to overcome something like this.
» PRESSURE: While Athena has a decorated track record including a number of fairly lengthy reigns as a champion, she often struggles in big-time matches. Whether or not she puts on a good performance or has a good effort is secondary to the result, which is often negative. In fact, her championship match record in MCW includes four losses and no wins! Likewise, she’s competed in and lost all three of her pay-per-view matches in the company. She excels at the pursuit of loftier ambitions and bigger opportunities, but often falls short of her goal. Sometimes she can sneak past this weakness by the skin of her teeth but multiple variables need to fall into place for this to occur.
» INFATUATION: When Athena loves someone, she will cross lines, behave emotionally, and go above and beyond to protect them and fight for them, even if she has not been asked or invited to do so. This often puts Athena and her own personal goals at risk, leaving her overextended and in compromised situations. Opponents can exploit this weakness by distracting Athena through actions aimed at those she loves.

[justify]As [i]“The Phoenix”[/i] by [i]Fall Out Boy[/i] continues and builds, the crowd rise to their feet to offer a raucous but admittedly mixed vocal response. Soon enough, the chorus to the song arrives and an assembly of vibrant lights rotate and orient toward the stage, onto which [b][i][COLOR=#FFC800]ATHENA VERONICA[/COLOR][/I][/B] finally struts with confidence. The [i]Bird of Prey[/i] looks out upon the capacity crowd for a moment, taking it all in with ever-so-slightly narrowed eyes that survey the crowd. She soon wears a smug smirk and leans her head to one side to crack her neck.
Athena sports a pair of phthalo green pads attached to boots which are also phthalo green everywhere save for the tread of the boot itself, which is black, and the laces, which are black. This color scheme continues to her hipsters, with chains and studs aplenty. On her torso, [i]Goddess[/i] Athena wears a phthalo green grecian wrestling top with chains and studs adorning it as trim and accenting as well. Additionally, Athena dons a black coat with silver studs lining the lapels, as well as coral lip gloss, which pops even more under her beeline honey hair.
She struts over to the top of the entrance ramp, where she garners a deafening, albeit mixed response from the seemingly endless throngs of fans in attendance tonight by swaying her hips before striking a pose, [i]Patrick Stump[/i] singing of raising a phoenix. When the chorus repeats this line, Athena offers a fairly theatrical bow, setting off an array of pyrotechnics to another mixed response from the audience. She returns to a vertical base and smirks with her hand raised beside her head, fingers curled into the shape of talons.

The second verse to the song begins as Athena makes her way down the entrance ramp with her focus on [i]Opponent Name Here[/i] in the ring ahead. Her determination is evident on her otherwise sultry visage. Her razor-sharp focus on the woman ahead inside the squared circle only deepens as she approaches ringside. The second pre-chorus arrives and Athena finally steps off of the ramp and enters ringside, where she places her hands on her hips and raises an eyebrow at her opponent. After inching forward, she stops in place at the foot of the apron to take a deep breath. With a suddenly confident smile, she reaches up and grabs the middle rope to assist in pulling herself up onto one knee on the apron.
The second chorus arrives and Veronica swings her other leg up, placing the sole of that boot on the apron as well before slowly turning her frame outward toward the fans, taking her eyes off of her opposition for the first time. She leans back against the ropes until she can thread her arms backward over the top rope and lean her head backward with a smirk and closed eyes, savoring the chorus of mixed vocal support and contempt. From here, Athena unhooks her left arm and twists her way into the ring over the middle rope. Once inside, she leans over the top rope and jaws with the fans who were booing her. After this, she turns and meets her opponent’s gaze, grinning at her.[/justify]

[justify]Athena throws her hand into the sky with each word from Stump, the crowd singing along despite their less than favorable sentiments toward her right now. She then uses the descent of her hand to swing around to face the hard camera, to which she offers yet another theatrical bow. When the fourth iteration of the line concludes, however, her music fades out. She removes her jacket and cocks her head to the opposite side as she had earlier, cracking this side, too. She then hops back and forth on her toes and nods her head, shaking her hands out once each. She tucks some of her hair behind her ear and digs her heels in to assume a prepared stance, from which she nods to the official to confirm her readiness for the bell.[/justify]EXCLUSIVES
