eWrestling Experience: (What have you done? Where?) I've been doing this since around 1996 back in old email feds. My biggest accomplishments were long runs as the top heel in both uW/UWA, Tradition, and a deep quarterfinal run into one of the RP God multi-fed tournaments. Recently ran Redemption Wrestling (http://s13.zetaboards.com/redemptionwrestling/site/) for just over two years before closing due to the birth of a new child
How did you find DEFIANCE? was searching for an angle fed on various sites and came across it.
Writing Sample
I've got two different styles I use so I'll post a smaller sample of each -
Sample 1 -
We cut to Toby Keller standing backstage white-knuckling his microphone. He looks around absentmindedly.
Toby Keller: I’m Toby Keller and this is Dante Saffron…no, no, that’s not it. I’m Toby Keller and with me is Dante Saffron…shoot, that’s not it either. I have to get this right, Saffron scares me.
Toby clears his throat.
Toby Keller: I’m Toby Keller and standing next to me is “The Heretic” Dante Saffron….is that it…no..sheesh, I just don’t know.
“That’ll work perfectly fine” calls the rough voice of Saffron’s as he steps into the picture.
Toby Keller: Mr. Saff…err..Dante…
Dante Saffron: Pick up your jaw and speak like you have half a brain. I don’t have the time nor the patience to deal with your ineptitude tonight.
Toby Keller: Yes..yes of course. Dante, what the people all want to know is what are your intentions here in Redemption. I mean..I don’t know how to word it. You…you come off almost compassionate and endearing to the fans when you deal with Chase, but then you come off with guys like Slade and St. James….so….cold, calculating, and downright evil. The fans hate your guts.
Dante Saffron: It’s a simple, yet a complex answer at the same time. James Oliver Curwood said “In every man's heart there is a devil, but we do not know the man as bad until the devil is roused.” You see, mankind as a whole is reprehensible. Man is inherently evil and destined to destroy themselves, just as they did with the tower of Babylon. Man is self-gratifying and short sited. But then it was Pablo Casals who said "Each person has inside a basic decency and goodness. If he listens to it and acts on it, he is giving a great deal of what it is the world needs most. It is not complicated but it takes courage. It takes courage for a person to listen to his own goodness and act on it." So while man is inherently evil, there is also some kind of goodness in each of us as well.
Dante gives Toby a look, who seems to be lost in thought trying to follow what is being said.
Dante Saffron: It was Theognis of Megara who wrote in Fragment XLI “Fairly examined, truly understood, No man is wholly bad, nor wholly good.” You see, it’s quite simple. Man is both evil and good. I’m evolved enough I’ve braced both sides. When I’m with Chase she brings out my humanity and what I desire to be. I never knew love growing up, and I never knew kindness. Chase has showed me what that is and she’s inspired me to embrace that good that lies within me. Slade, however, is a different story. He represents the material obsession of the world. Slade is so consumed with own insecurities, his own needs to be in the limelight, that he responds to nothing less than the inner demons I possess.
Toby Keller: I..I’m not sure if I get it.
Dante Saffron: Simple. Chase represents the creation of love and what can be. Slade represents the destruction and what was. Somewhere along the line I had to conform myself to both in order to be complete. I’ve embraced both sides of my own humanity, something very few have ever or will ever do.
Toby Keller: I see…so one more question. What if it’s Chase in the end. What if in the end the only way for you to walk out that match is to pin Chase. Not The Bitch, but the woman who represents your good?
Dante Saffron: I do Chase a great injustice if I hand her anything. Chase is force all unto her own. If I simply lie down and don’t give her the proper respect she deserves then I do nothing to better her or push her. I do her a worse disservice; I hold her back from achieving that greatness that’s inside her. All I can do is fight for the destruction of Slade and fight to win with no regard for who steps into my way.
Toby Keller: I..thank you Mr. Saffron..you’re not as scary…
Dante scrunches his forehead and gives Toby a thousand mile scowl, one that gives the inkling that Saffron is someone to be feared and to be treated accordingly. Keller starts to step away, trembling as he does.

-EDITED OUT-
Wrestler(s) Information
Please take note of a couple things. It is highly likely that a few roster members will critique your moveset. Please don't be offended. We take that shit seriously here - we don't want a moveset full of finishers and a finisher so ludicrously over-elaborate that it couldn't be done in real life. This goes double if you're applying as a female wrestler. We also check to make sure your finisher(s) and theme song aren't currently being used. It's first come first serve when it comes to those.
And if you're one of those handlers who hates doing movesets, just say so and Jeff will do it for you.
Ring Name: Johnny Payne (Goes by The Johnny Payne)
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 232 lbs
Hailing From: (This is where your character is introduced as being from) St. Louis, Missouri
Alignment: (Heel or Face? You may not play a Tweener without special staff permission) Heel
Gimmick: (Describe your gimmick. If your wrestler isn't heavily gimmicked then describe his/her persona.) Johnny is the ward of wrestling great Tony Field. He was trained from a young age. Though his obsession is less with wrestling and more with fame. He's obsessed with himself and he's obsessed with the celebrity lifestyle. He's often more concerned with the "paparazzi" and twitter often times. He is known to film himself 24/7 and feed it directly on to his website for a show called "The Johnny Payne Project".
Wrestling Style: (Tell us a little bit about what your wrestler does in the ring and the general psychology behind it.) Johnny is a little bit of all arounder. He can go to the top rope, he can go to th mat, and he can mix it up with brawlers. He's efficient in all styles but a master of none. The only thing he really does lack is any kind of power game. He has a love for the DDT, just like his mentor, and does man variations and does them frequently.
Psychologically he loves to mock his opponent. He's more about trying to get under his opponent skin than he is intimidating them. He's even known to sometimes pull out his opponents signature moves when possible just to rub it in his face. He's also known to stop during a match and pose for the cameras.
Three Weaknesses:
1. He lacks a real power game when wrestling
2. His obsession with himself and his need to pose for the cameras often times leads him to lose track of his opponent and leave unnecessary openings.
3. Attacking his ego and his insecurities. He tries to mask them but they are there.
Three Strengths:
1. He is passable in most styles of wrestling
2. Johnny will do anything to get what he wants. There is no path too low.
3. He has an insanely amount of stamina stemming from his obsession with his perfection of his body.
MOVESET
Ten regular moveset moves:
1) one handed bulldog
2) double underhook backbreaker
3) double underhookd powerbomb
4) tilt-a-whirl backbreaker
5) missile drop kick
6) running back elbow
7) standing side kick
8) flying forearm smash
9) dragon screw
10) belly to back/belly to belly suplex
2-5 trademark moves:
1) Johnny Payne Moonsault (Springboard, top rope, or standing)
2) Johnny Payne Kick (Pelee Kick)
3) Johnny Payne Slam Full Nelson Face Slam)
4) Johnny Payne Leg Drop (Spring board leg drop from apron)
5) Many variations of the DDT
1 Finishing Move:
Johnny Payne Finsher or JPF (Jumping Cutter/RKO)
ALSO MOVED FROM TRADEMARK:
Johnny Payne Submission or JPS (Arm Bar, also uses as submission finisher)
1 "MDK" (murderdeathkill) Finishing Move (Optional)oI
When it's finished, the DEFIANCE roster will vote on whether to accept you. Getting accepted to the fed requires a net total of +4. So if you have one 'no', you'd need 5 'yes' to balance it out.
