PERSONALITY DESCRIPTION

Apathetic dirty boxing former carny now professional in-ring pain in the ass.

Has a strong tendency to get in over her head although would never admit so unless truly inescapably desperate, with a face that could stop traffic and a mouth that’d tell them all the ways they could fuck off.
Unpredictable, unorthodox and certifiably fearless with a hyper perceptive view of the world, which can make her incredibly ignorant of her own well being (physically and mentally).

Kill or be killed.



APPEARANCE DESCRIPTION

Naturally auburn hair, sometimes dyed a darker red. Amber’s piercing eyes don’t fall definitively on the side of blue or green but an equal mix of somewhere in between. Many think of her as good looking but she’s far from vain and dislikes having to go out of her way to ‘look nice’.

Multitude of scars in varying degrees of faded, mostly on her upper back from ultraviolence bouts that have come to define parts of her career. Heavily taped right shoulder, a persistent injury issue she refuses to have seen to. Always wearing odd converse sneakers.

In ring- no elbow or knee pads for the fact they reduce the potency of strikes. Generally cargo pants or loose, distressed jeans and a mostly black t-shirts ( with/or hoodie or tank top dependent on the weather) with merch logoing, bands or general graphics (in varying states of wear). Worn motorcycle jacket with heavy wear on the upper right arm.



REGULAR ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION

It’s the tinkling of the eerie music box that brings the lights down, the crowd murmuring with anticipation, as slowly and silently the big screens seems to crack one by one until Lzzy Hale's vocals cue shadows to dance across the shattered surfaces.

“I pirouette in the dark, I see the stars through a mirror
Tired mechanical heart, beats till the song disappears”

Squealing violin cuts through the building tension, lights pulsing in red like an erratic heartbeat

“Somebody shine a light, I’m frozen by the fear in me
Somebody make me feel alive then shatter me!
So cut me from the line, dizzy spinning endlessly
Somebody make me feel alive then shatter me!”

As the bass drops, a female silhouette almost materializes atop the aisle drawing a mixed reaction from the crowd. Most cheer in appreciation of the show that they’re about to witness but many jeer due to her previous affiliations and general devil-just-doesn't-give-a-fuck attitude.

Dubstep violin leads Amber down the ramp, a few fans extend hands but receive little acknowledgement for their efforts. She circles the ring, messing with whichever ring crew and staff that happen to be within vicinity before methodically and deliberately sliding beneath the bottom rope and crossing to one of the far corners.
Climbing the turnbuckle left handed, she watches out over the crowd to gauge the reaction, returning the mixed reaction with an acknowledging nod of her own before somewhat turning awkwardly on the spot and taking a seat upon the top turnbuckle with hands clasped and elbows resting on her knees- that familiar Distorted Angel smirk ever present across her face.

As the bass drops, a female silhouette almost materializes atop the aisle drawing a mixed reaction from the crowd. back to the ring, the reflection of the title belt reflects the erratic lights as it drapes over the back of her shoulder. Finally turning to face the ring, Amber keeps the title slung over the back of her shoulder, holding the edge of the strap as she saunters down towards the ring. A few fans extend hands trying to get a touch of the belt as it bounces against her back. Circling the ring, messing with whichever ring crew and staff that happen to be within vicinity, she slips the belt off her shoulder and slides it haphazardly beneath the rope before methodically and deliberately sliding beneath the bottom rope after it.

Scooping the title up along her path, allowing it to drape back over the back of her shoulder she climbs the turnbuckle left handed before turning and giving the crowd her back and a cheeky smirk over her opposite shoulder. Taking a seat upon the top turnbuckle, she pulls the title belt back to the front of her shoulder allowing her elbows to rest on her knees. That familiar Distorted Angel smirk ever present across her features.

CHARACTER BACKGROUND

Amber Jaye Ryan has walked the road less traveled, unwilling to accept that life had to be a certain way based on her parents inability to co-exist, she left for life with the carnivals at 13 having been shuffled between foster homes for four years previously due to her mothers on again off again relationship with high functioning alcoholism.

It was a combination of self defense, a fanatical love for the wrestling art form and the desperate need of redemption and redefinition of her life that drew the redhead into the world of professional wrestling. From basic training in suntukan by a pair of traveling freaks to learning the wrestling craft from an anonymous wrestling legend under the guise of the masked man El Destructo- her path was far from clear cut and defined, having veered in every direction possible along the way and seeing the world through a unique filter.

Many suggested that the fiery redhead, working in every aspect she could of the carnival scene- though mostly spending her time with the wrestling side show, many quietly resigned themselves to the fact that she’d likely never see her 21st birthday let alone break through to the professional level.
Living so roughly and minimalistically, a perspective she maintains to this day, she surprised many by signing her first professional contract only months before her 20th birthday in 2008.
However things took a turn 4 years into her professional career when she was involved in a horrific car crash that left her DOA and clinically dead for almost half an hour.

To this day, injuries sustained in the crash of the emotional, mental and physical kind still haunt the now Distorted Angel- from the surgeries to her right shoulder and the emotional scars constantly torn open just beneath the surface by a past she can’t quite bury.
Despite it all, Amber has continued to build her career on a foundation of high profile violence, matches deemed career suicide before finding her way to the top of many promotions cards as a headline performer known for putting on a show- not for the crowds benefit but to prove to herself that she continues to belong.

Constantly evolving, while many still question her mental state and wonder just what it is she has left to fight for in a career studded with blood and gold.

CWF. GWR. OCW. CWR. Orion. Boardwalk. HKW. 4CW. Carnage.

A former champion and Hall of Famer with an irrepressible sarcasm and a total lack of fucks to give.
With a career based on survival and exceeding expectations it’s safe to say that the Distorted Angel is the snowball in hell that no one ever gave a chance to
