I'm not sure how popular this will be, so there's a good chance this won't even get off the ground, but eh. I'll try.
This is the RPGuild Official Wrestling E-Fed topic. If you're not aware of what an e-fed is, it's basically a ficticious wrestling federation set up over the Internet.
How this will work is you will send me a profile based on the template below of your wrestler (preferably based on your character). After several wrestlers have been created, you will get the opportunity to create teams or stables if you wish, or you may choose to be a strictly singles performer (though starting a team in no way binds you to perform tag team matches). Challenges may be issued in this topic towards any other member, including champions, though an updated ranking chart will be posted after events, and unless you're well-placed on the chart, you most likely won't receive title shots (at least not by me; the champions can choose to accept any title challenges they want, time permitting).
I will be using Zeus Pro 4.0.5 to run cards and keep track of the fed. Zeus Pro is a wrestling simulator that produces output in the form of a move-by-move description of matches.
Anyway, here is the template for wrestler creation:

Provide a name for you wrestler.
WEIGHT
Minimum of 175 lbs, maximum of 250 lbs.
HEIGHT
Minimum of 5 feet, maximum of 7 feet.
HOMETOWN
Yeah.
AFFILIATION
Face (good guy), heel (bad guy), neutral. This doesn't really affect anything except whether the crowd boos or cheers for you.
RING INTRO
What do you do when you enter the ring? Do fireworks go off, does a certain song play, et cetera. Please, be specific.
STATS
You are alloted a total of thirty points, to be distributed between the following traits (maximum of ten points per stat):
STRENGTH
Affects your character's ability to perform power moves.
SPEED
Affects your character's ability to perform moves that require speed or agility.
VITALITY
Endurance or energy or whatever.
CHARISMA
How well your character plays off the crowd.
MOVES
In Zeus Pro, you can select from a s***load of moves to assign a wrestlers. Since listing them all and having you choose would be tedious and time-consuming, I'm instead going to list the templates and allow you to choose from any of them (as many as you want). Be advised that while it may seem like a good idea to select every single moveset, your character is more likely to win if his moves are tailored to the statistics you assigned him.
All-rounder (various moves)
Big man (power moves) (NOTE: Choosing "big man" will automatically add "all-rounder," as big man only has a few moves)
Luchadore (high-flying lightweight moves)
Martial artist (you know, like karate and judo and s***)
Submissionist (technical moves, like holds and stuff)
Woman/valet (moves like slapping and hair pulling)
(If you actually know a little bit about wrestling, you may also request specific moves. I will attempt to accomodate you, but can't guarentee Zeus Pro will have you move you want.)
FINISHER
You can also assign a finisher move to your wrestler. Here, I don't actually care how outageous you make the move. You can either use a pre-existing wrestling maneuver or make your own. If you make your own, describe it to me and I'll create a custom move in ZP (though I'll assign the damage stats myself). If you're creating your own move, you must specify whether it's a knock-out finisher or submission finisher.
|
After a few wrestlers have joined, you can start forming factions or tag teams. Just provide the names of the members of the stable or tag team and a description of their entrance.
Here's a brief description of match types available:

3-WAY SINGLES
One-on-one-on-one.
4-WAY SINGLES
One-on-one-on... you get the idea.
TAG TEAM
Note: you must have registered a tag team or stable to participate in this kind of match.
3-WAY TAG
Tag match with three teams.
4-WAY TAG
Tag match with four teams.
TAG ELIMINATION
A tag team match wherein victory occurs only when both members of a team have been pinned.

In addition to these match types, these rules may be added to matches:

CAGE
Fight inside a steel cage. First to escape the cage wins.
HELL IN A CELL
A roofed cage that surrounds the entire ringside area.
CASKET
Place your opponent inside a casket to win.
EXTREME RULES MATCH
No disqualification, heavy use of weapons, pinfalls count anywhere.
TABLE MATCH
Put your opponent through a table to win.
LADDER MATCH
Climb a ladder to grab the item hanging above the ring.
TLC MATCH
A ladder match with chairs and tables.
MIXED MARTIAL ARTS MATCH
Fight in an octogon cage. Victory occurs only by submission or knock-out.

Also, ZP allows the creation of new match types, so if you have any ideas, I'll try to create them.
EVENTS (SHOWS, PPVs, ET CETERA)
An explanation of the event system: we have one event every day (Daily Damage) plus one supershow a week, typically on Sundays.
Important matches (such as most championship matches or "grudge matches") are reserved for supershows.
Remember, you can issue challenges to any wrestler for any event (though they don't have to accept). Keep in mind that, as the fed's general manager, I may book matches I find interesting, even if one or more parties disagree. I'm like that.
Oh, and about run-ins: If you want to interfere in any scheduled match, send me a PM. You can attack any of the participants in the match. There can also be more than one run-in per match.
PROMOS
If you want to cut a promo during a scheduled event (challenging a wrestler, insulting an opponent you're facing later at that event, et cetera) send me the contents of the promo before the event and I'll try to include it.

Well let's begin. Sign-ups start as of now, they're open to anyone who wants to participate.
Please, I beg you. Participate if you know that you're gonna be active. If you're gonna go inactive for some time, tell us.
MY CHARACTER APPLICATION BTW:
NAME
Julio Cesar F
WEIGHT
196 lbs.
HEIGHT
6.1 feet
HOMETOWN
Caracas, Venezuela

"Guerilla Radio" by Rage Against the Machine hits the speakers while Julio comes down the ramp, shaking fans' hands along the way and pumping up the crowd as usual.
STATS
STRENGTH
8
SPEED
7
VITALITY
7
CHARISMA
8
MOVES
All-rounder
FINISHERS
Tornado Stunner - (TKO) - Julio picks his opponent in the Fireman Carry, spins around and executes a stunner on the opponent.
Elevated Chokeslam - (Military press to chokeslam) - Julio picks up the opponent in a Military Press and drops the opponent with a chokeslam.
Gut-Buster - (Modified Samoan Drop) - Julio picks up the opponent in a Modified Fireman Carry and executes a Samoan Drop, crushing the opponent's gut when landing.
Tornado Pass-out - (Modified STS) - With the opponent facedown on the mat, Julio puts the opponent's legs in a "4" shape and locks in the STS.
3, 2, 1, Liftoff - (Powerslam Carry Spinning DDT) - Julio carries the opponent for a powerslam, spins around, locks the opponent's head in the frontface lock with the opposite arm and drops for a DDT.
Wake-up Call - (Super Kick) - Julio super kicks the opponent in the jaw.
A QUICK NOTE ABOUT FINISHERS:
As you can see from my profile, you can have multiple finishers. That won't give you any advantage over your opponent. ZeusPro doesn't determine results for that, but for the stats, the match type and the normal moves. You can have as many finishers as you like, but you also need standard moves.
This topic will work as my base of operations. You'll post your characters' profiles here and I'll add you to the roster. I'll also use this to make out-of-character announcements, e.g "I'll be away for some days" or "Somebody else will be in charge". The RPing topic will have roleplaying (Trashtalking, issuing challenges, etc. You will never roleplay fights), events' cards and generated results.
I'll begin as soon as I have enough people. Any questions?
