Name: Scatterheart Nickname: The Lethal Enforcer Finisher: Funeral Tango Faction: Martial Law Bio: A brutal and uncompromising bruiser within the EDEN-1 roster, Scatterheart is the so-called “Lethal Enforcer” of Martial Law. She is an intense, taciturn figure more comfortable communicating with her fists than through words. Scatterheart is also unwaveringly loyal to Jocelynn Wahl, who handpicked her as an early protege during the first stretch of her career. She was a virtual nobody in professional wrestling before Wahl first took her under her wing, teaching her about the utter ruthlessness needed to succeed both in the ring and backstage. She became a devoted acolyte — and an apt pupil at leveraging violence to get her way. As such, Scatterheart has refashioned herself into an instrument of battle, ready to sacrifice herself for Wahl’s plans to seize control of EDEN-1.Name: Salome St. JamesNickname: Heavy Metal SuccubusFinisher: Sweets 2 the SweetFaction: Unaffiliated Link: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2094293638Bio: Salome St. James comes into EDEN-1 with a chip on her shoulder. A dirty fighter prone to cutting every corner imaginable, St. James has always been something of a defiant loner. She doesn’t want alliances or accolades. She doesn’t want championship belts. She merely wants to cause havoc and misery in an industry that has long disrespected her, pulverizing her opponents through any means necessary. St. James signed with EDEN-1 purely to sow chaos and crack skulls — and she's eager to get started. Both of these two looks great! I really like Salome's look and gimmick and Scatterheart's bio! 😎 "Funeral Tango" is an awesome finisher name!! What move is that?

I wish I could take credit for "Funeral Tango," but I totally stole it from a Scott Walker song (and it's Darkness Falls, for the record).

Name: Fatou Diop Nickname: The Duchess Finisher: This Woman's Work Faction: The Furies Link: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2108992407Bio: Living much of her adult life in extreme affluence and wealth, Fatou Diop’s interest in professional wrestling started off as purely academic. She viewed it as a bizarre Bretchian spectacle: camp, excess, and pantomime all rolled into the traditions of epic theater. Even when she first entered training, signing up as a recruit at the NWA-UK Hammerlock training school while still pursuing her MA at Cambridge, she did so in an impulsive, half-jesting manner. Within three months, however, Diop had dropped out of her graduate program to dedicate herself fully to professional wrestling. What had started off as a lark and dalliance quickly flourished into a desperate love and devotion. Diop trained harder and harder, transforming herself into one of the hottest up-and-comers in all of BritWres. She refashioned herself into a formidable submission specialist, bending and contorting her slight frame to twist her opponents into knots until they inevitably tap out. A brilliant technical wrestler, Diop spent the next few years touring through much of Europe before traveling to her next great conquest: Japan. She eventually signed with EDEN-1 in the hopes of finding a new breed of opponent to snap and submit. Capturing the attention of Arcadia Naruse, Diop also became a member of The Furies, a rising faction of “wrestling outsiders” seeking to become the dominant force in women’s pro wrestling. For Diop, EDEN-1 remains little more than a battlefield through which she can prove her brilliance and domination.

Name: Nikita Lux Nickname: Divine Death Finisher: Unchallenged Hate Faction: The Furies Link: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2176699872Bio: A graduate of the Storm Wrestling Academy, Nikita Lux roamed from promotion to promotion like a furious hurricane. She became notorious throughout the US and Canada for her sheer brutality, slugging it out in matches that threatened to end the careers of her opponents. She was a remorseless killing machine, earning the nickname “Divine Death” from a locker room that feared her. This propensity for unbridled savagery made some promotions reticent to book her, especially since she seemed utterly devoid of regret at the trail of broken bodies behind her. It wasn’t long before this brutish, hyper-violent style caught the attention of Japanese promoters, who brought her in as a “monster gaijin” attraction. Undeterred, Lux agreed to playing the role, perversely elated that she had found a second home that would allowed her to run roughshod on her opponents. It wasn’t long before EDEN-1 came to her with a contract offer. Upon signing, Lux aligned herself with Arcadia Naruse and the Furies, acting as the de-facto leader’s hired muscle. She became a bodyguard, shadowing her benefactor at every turn. Name: Shirin Panahi Nickname: Pale Flower Finisher: Sultana's Hammer Faction: Unaffiliated Bio: Shirin Panahi entered the world of professional wrestling via a circuitous route, first gaining fame and recognition throughout the world as a competitive powerlifter. In 2016, Panahi entered the public limelight after becoming the first Iranian woman to claim the gold medal at the Weightlifting IWF Naim Suleymanoglu Tournament. This accomplishment brought her a tremendous amount of fame and adulation, allowing her to tour the world as a cultural ambassador and celebrity. Despite this, Panahi quickly grew disaffected with her status as a “cultural icon” and migrated to Japan, where she resided with a cousin who had immigrated and settled in the Kanto region. During this time, Panahi first met legendary trainer Emi Sakura and made the decision to transition into a career in pro wrestling. Signing up as a new recruit at the Gatoh Move School, Panahi quickly excelled and became a formidable force within the squared circle, agile and powerful in equal measure. Even though she was still relatively new to the scene, Miho Imagawa quickly scouted her out for EDEN-1 and offered her a contract. Panahi signed without hesitation, ready to step up her game and hone her skills on new opponents.
Name: Orange Watanabe Nickname: The Money Mark Finisher: Microphone Attack Faction: Owner Link: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2176700218 Bio: Before co-founding EDEN-1 with Miho Imagawa, Orange Watanabe was mostly known as an eccentric and somewhat aloof global entrepreneur with several ventures under her belt. She first came to prominence as the founder and majority shareholder of GoNaGaGa, a mobile gaming and technology company that functioned as the first peg of Watanabe’s billion dollar tech and multimedia empire. Despite this staggering success, Watanabe retired as CEO of GoNaGaGa in 2015 in order to pursue her most quixotic of fantasies: managing her own pro wrestling promotion. A diehard mark since her early childhood, Watanabe poured her considerable wealth into co-founding EDEN-1, handling the new promotion’s multiple revenue streams as Miho Imagawa worked on building its roster. For Watanabe, it was a lifelong dream come true… at first. Despite her advanced age and nonexistent in-ring skill, the ever-eccentric Watanabe decided to indulge in her misbegotten fantasies of going toe-to-toe with the some of the best of EDEN-1’s star-studded roster. This, of course, has led to some unintended consequences… although, in retrospect, who hasn’t ever wanted to pulverize their boss into a bloody, quivering pulp?

I have a few more wrestler bios to write and then I'll be ready to officially launch EDEN-1's first event. Until then, I made a trailer...

And of course I just noticed a couple of minor errors in the trailer I'm going to have to go back and fix... womp womp. Two more central characters: Name: Shino Sakamoto Nickname: Top-Rope Teleporter Finisher: Teleportation Press Faction: Celestial Holy Army Link: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2180081511
Name: Arcadia Naruse Nickname: Black Pegasus Finisher: The Shrieking Pegasus Faction: The Furies Link: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2180081395
Combined Bios: In almost every respect, the stories of Shino Sakamoto and Arcadia Naruse are inexorably intertwined, their parallel destinies tethered to the bitter end. To start, both learned to love professional wrestling through their fathers. For Sakamoto, professional wrestling was always a “family business,” as her father had gained prominence throughout the 80s and 90s as Bulldozer Sakamoto, a Strong Style specialist par excellence. Sakamoto learned the fundamentals from her father at an early age, although the frenzied, high-octane style she’d later adopt was a significant departure from the more grounded technique of her father. Naruse, meanwhile, first fell in love with the sport at the tender age of six, watching and rewatching her father’s VHS bootleg of the now-legendary 1994 NJPW Super J Cup match against Wild Pegasus and The Great Sasuke. From that moment on, Naruse decided to dedicate herself to becoming a professional wrestler, even adopting the “Pegasus” monicker for herself when she first entered into training. Equally explosive and athletic in the ring, Naruse and Sakamoto soon found themselves taken up as Miho Imagawa’s earliest proteges, the fledgling students of what would later become known as the EDEN-1 Dojo. Naruse and Sakamoto started off as the bitterest rivals, but eventually bonded through endless sparring and training and became close friends. The two would eventually find their greatest triumph through the formation of the Kusarigama Girls, a formidable tag team that roared across multiple promotions and picked up a slew of championship belts. Together, the two of them were unstoppable.
But their partnership flickered out before it ever had a chance to set the world ablaze. Naruse, overcome with jealousy and disgust for what she perceived as her partner’s “privileged second generation attitude,” split from Sakamoto shortly before the formation of EDEN-1. Her accusations were vague and still somewhat mysterious, but the implications remained quite clear: Sakamoto had the world handed to her on a silver platter while Naruse had to struggle and strive for everything. Sakamoto was aghast at her former partner’s sudden churlishness, despite doing everything in her power to bring Naruse back into the fold. This split came at an inopportune time for both women, as two wrestlers once known as tag team specialists were now rivals once again. In the wake of this break-up, Naruse formed The Furies, a faction of “wrestling outsiders” dedicated to overthrowing the status quo of EDEN-1 and women’s wrestling in general. Sakamoto, meanwhile, became the lieutenant of Miho Imagawa’s Celestial Holy Army, itself an extension of the EDEN-1 Dojo and the so-called establishment her former partner wanted to dismantle. Needless to say, the two of them are destined to battle again — but who will reign supreme?

Name: Yuko Asashi Nickname: Sugar Dash Finisher: Confectionary Catastrophe Faction: Celestial Holy Army Bio: Yuko Asashi is a relative newcomer to professional wrestling and one of the most promising graduates from the EDEN-1 Dojo. Asashi even earned high praise from her mentor Miho Imagawa, who declared her the “vanguard in our next generation of women’s wrestlers.” Asashi is a ferocious competitor despite her obvious size disadvantage, often leveraging her speed and ingenuity to her advantage. She’s also an incredibly cocky, vainglorious combatant, with far more swagger than any wrestler her age should have. She comes to EDEN-1 determined to prove herself a formidable upstart, an essential part of the Celestial Holy Army — and, if she has her way, a future world champion.
Name: Yuko Asashi Nickname: Wind Dancer Finisher: Calamity Waltz Faction: Unaffiliated Link: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2181067308Bio: Despite her relative inexperience, Evie Armitage has quickly become a favorite within the British independent scene, taking the wrestling world by storm with her flamboyant, high-velocity arsenal of moves. She still has quite a lot to learn, but comes to EDEN-1 seeking to further hone her craft and climb her way to the top.

Name: Artemisia Frost Nickname: The Tyrant Assassin Finisher: Weeping Lamentations Faction: Martial Law Link: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2225437760Bio: Artemisia Frost started off on the Indies using her real name, Yvonne Arnold. Largely unsuccessful, Arnold toured through numerous promotions as a sort of journeywoman before rediscovering herself during a tour in Japan. From there, she adopted the Artemisia Frost persona and entered the direct tutelage of “The Devil’s Right Hand” Ai Adachi, who refashioned “Arnold” into a cruel, remorseless enforcer. Frost acted as Adachi’s personal assassin—coldly dispatching her enemies within the ring—until her mentor’s eventual departure to the WWE. But even Adachi’s abrupt exit from Japanese wrestling couldn’t stop Frost, who remained a calculating menace both in the ring and outside of it, cultivating a reputation as one of the most terrifying women in professional wrestling. Now, upon signing with EDEN-1, Frost has aligned herself with Martial Law and seems tangentially involved in Jocelynn Wahl’s grasp for power. But how will this change upon the long-rumored return of Ai Adachi?

Love the production value man and some cool edits and gimmicks as well. I think the duchess or sugar dash are my two faves.

Name: Gunner Hashimoto Nickname: The Basilisk Finisher: Inferno of Torture Faction: The Celestial Holy Army Link: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2279336192Bio: Gunner Hashimoto is a grizzled veteran of women’s wrestling who jumpstarted her career with a real bang of a debut: as a semifinalist in the first ever Grapple Queens tournament in Osaka. Following this impressive rookie performance, Hashimoto blazed ahead the next year and clinched victory with her pulverizing, no-nonsense, suplex-heavy style. Trained as an amateur wrestler, Hashimoto quickly cultivated a following as a true powerhouse. Her kind and jolly disposition backstage belied her utter ruthlessness in the ring, leading some of her opponents to underestimate her and then get squashed within five minutes. She was later dubbed the quintessential “wrestler’s wrestler” and toured much of the world before signing a contract with Ribbon-Rev. During this time, Hashimoto formed an inseparable bond with Miho Imagawa, even winning the tag team belts with her early in their careers. Now, at Imagawa’s behest, Gunner Hashimoto enters into a new stage in her career: as the newest recruit in the Celestial Holy Army.
