Star Wars: New Republic Wars.

@Apollosarcher Thanks, looking forward to getting started!

Star Wars: New Republic Wars.

Captain

Captain Name: Vohrel Dann
Race: Mon Calamari
Home world: Dac a.k.a. Mon Cala
Appearance: Slightly shorter than average for a Mon Calamari, Vohrel has a slightly unusual dark grey and turquoise colouring to his skin which (perhaps surprisingly, to those not familiar with Mon Cala mating traditions) makes him absolutely repulsive to females of his species. This has always suited him quite fine though, as he has always considered the pursuit of women to be 'That great distraction which plagues the minds of the otherwise sensible'.

Appearance

Training: Vohrel holds 1st Class Awards in 'Astrophysics', 'Starship Maintenance' and 'Power Distribution Systems Analysis' from the Mon Cala Institute of Engineering. He worked as an engineer on several of the smaller capital ships of the Rebellion fleet during the civil war.

Notable battles: Vohrel was serving as Chief Engineer on the Liberty-class Star Cruiser Daccian Sunrise during a pitch battle with the Imperial Remnant over Dubrillion when the ship took a direct hit to the bridge, killing the Captain and most of the other ranking officers in one swoop. As the highest ranking member of the crew, he took command of the ship and was later decorated for his actions in minimising the loss of life from the incident which could quite easily have resulted in the ship being lost under a less able officer. As soon as the Daccian Sunrise had finished repairs he was placed in permanent command. He went on to captain the ship through several notable battles, securing a reputation as a commander the New Republic leaders could trust.

Bio: Vohrel Dann was born as the runt of the litter. Shunned and teased by his brothers and sisters because of his unusual colouring, Vohrel spent much of his childhood alone reading books on everything from history to literature to engineering. As a juvenile, he was top of all of his classes and spent most of his free time in the libraries of Dac just reading and writing. He was an exceptionally young applicant to the Mon Cala Institute of Engineering, completing his 1st Class Award in Astrophysics in less than two years. Still far too young to do anything with his qualification, he decided to take on two more courses centered around a fascination with starships he had cultivated during his studies of Astrophysics. Upon completion of these, he was snapped up as an apprentice at one of the leading Mon Cala shipbuilding yards.

When the Galactic Civil War broke out, Vohrel found that less and less of his work was being done building new ships, while more and more of it was spent fixing ships that had been damaged during the fight against the Empire. He took the decision to enrol in a program which took established civil engineers and fast-tracked them through as engineering officers, which were in high demand on the capital ships of the Rebel fleet.

Ship

Daccian Sunrise

She took part in several key battles over Alderaan, Utapau and Bespin before the Battle over Dubrillion saw the deaths of most of the senior staff, leading to Vohrel Dann taking commmand.

I must have missed the post in the Interest Check saying the OOC was up. I'll start working on a CS now

I was wondering, shouldn't entrance themes be from 1996 or earlier? It feels like having more modern songs is a bit out of place.

@geminironin

Yeah, I have to agree. If we're making everything else era-appropriate, the music should be too.

Don't post links to Facebook, bud. Unless we're friends with you we can't see your pictures.

Rabid Rob Reynolds

Name: Connor O'Malley a.k.a 'Rabid' Rob Reynolds
Hometown: Mackenzie, British Columbia, Canada
Height: 6' 2"
Weight: 257lbs
Entrance Music: Bark at the Moon - Ozzy Osbourne

Alignment: Tweener - Typically heel, but often plays the face role in feuds against other heels.

Gimmick: 'Rabid' Rob Reynolds might have been a normal member of society once. Nobody knows, since nobody knows anything of his past before he wandered out of the wilderness into the small town of Mackenzie, British Columbia. A social outcast with minimal vocabulary and a vicious temper, 'Rabid' Rob found work doing the only thing he knew how to do: Fight. Those crazy Canadian bastards shoved him in a wrestling ring each week and watched him tear his opponents to shreds. And now he's here in GPW, looking to do one thing and one thing only: Dominate!

Personality: Contrary to his wrestling persona, Connor is a pretty laid back character who prides himself on his cool head and good sense of humour. Fond of practical jokes and self-depricating humour, he isn't happy unless the whole backstage crew are chuckling at one of his many japes. Despite his outwardly happy appearance, Connor has suffered from alcoholism in the past, and has especially had trouble keeping his drinking under control since his divorce last year.

Biography: Born to a low-income family, his father was a mechanic and his mother had previously been an air stewardess, who lapsed into a severe depressive cycle when she lost her job after she had Connor and his younger brother, Thomas. The alcoholic spiral into which she threw herself ended up taking her from Connor's life before his eighth birthday, as she passed away of acute kidney and liver failure. Connor's father threw himself into his work, leaving Connor and Thomas to look after themselves for twelve hours a day. They passed the time in the usual ways: School, riding bikes and playing ball games. But the one time a week when they got to spend time with their father was when the three O'Malley boys would sit down on a Friday night and watch wrestling on the local TV station, broadcast from a small regional wresting company a few miles down the road called 'FGCW' or 'Fort George Championship Wrestling'.

When they were old enough, both Connor and Thomas went to tryouts for the FGCW and ended up training alongside their childhood heroes, the wrestlers whose national recognition was practically zero, but to Connor they were like gods. He listened to every piece of advice, followed every training regime and did everything the promoter and the veteran wrestlers told him to do and it wasn't long before he was getting involved, first by ring announcing, then by refereeing and occasionally playing the 'plucky newcomer' when they needed someone for a monster heel to squash. Finally, on his 19th birthday, he was rewarded with his first proper match and went on to become a mainstay of the FGCW undercard.

After a few years of not really going anywhere, Connor decided it was time to re-invent himself. He stopped performing under his own name and instead came up with the persona of 'Rabid' Rob Reynolds, the Wildman of British Columbia. He grew his beard out, stopped cutting or combing his hair and started painting himself with mud before every match. He changed his fighting style from that of a high-flying technical wrestler to more of a brawling powerhouse and went from playing the babyface to playing the badass monster heel. Although some of his fellow performers were skeptical at first, the rebranding turned out to be a massive hit with the audience and it wasn't long before 'Rabid' Rob Reynolds was headlining events and challenging for the top titles.

Unfortunately, it was around this time that he caught his wife in bed with another member of the FGCW roster, who he proceeded to beat the crap out of and had to be dragged off the man by four local policemen. Although the charges were eventually dropped, the company severely reprimanded both of the wrestlers and Connor fell out of favour with the promoter and the other higher-ups. His pending divorce and his increasing alcoholism finally caught up with him when he was booked to challenge for the FGCW Tag Team Championship at a television taping, but showed up so drunk that he passed out on the ring apron before his partner could even tag him in. The match ended quickly and as soon as he sobered up he was dragged into a room with the FGCW chairman, who fired him on the spot.

Now, having heard of the troubles happening at GPW, Connor has decided that a change of scenery is just what he needs to clear his head. He placed a call to Jack Flanagan, sent a couple of his old TV tapes over to GPW headquarters for them to look at, and was eventually called to come in for a trial. The rest, as they say, is history.

Wrestling Style: Brawling powerhouse.

Finishing Move/s:
'Howl at the Moon' (main finisher) - Vertical Suplex Slam, usually transitioned directly into a pin
'Wolfbite' (submission) - Crossface Half-Nelson Chokehold

Common Moves:
Double Underhook DDT
Multiple clothesline variants
Powerbomb
Powerslam
Multiple suplex variants

Sounds interesting. As players, would we be in control of our own mini-fleets or would we each be the captain of a single ship in a small fleet?

Calling All Wrestling Fans!

So in front of the camera we're all "I'm gonna smash Timbo Jenkins on Saturday, take his Junior Heavyweight Championship and break his face with it!" but behind the scenes we're all struggling with backstage politics and alcoholism?
