BIOGRAPHY
Leon Skies grew up in the gutters of Aurora Colorado. Didn't know his parents, his dad skipped out and his mother died when he was three. Leon bounced around foster homes for a while, until finally leaving and emancipating himself at sixteen to get away from it all. Dropping out of High School, Leon went straight to work with no other purpose than just survive. No family, no one responsible for him by himself, he worked for every meal, hist tiny studio apartment, and the clothes on his back.
Living in the city wasn't cheap, and juggling jobs were difficult. It wasn't long until Leon had stumbled into the underground bloodsport racket. Where amateurs and pros alike battled while bets were thrown down on who would win. You could make a few hundred dollars in a night if you fought well.
Desperate, Leon found himself embroiled in them, some nights went well, most didn't. Many nights Leon was left on cold concrete with a few twenties dropped in front of him. Some nights passed where he thought maybe he'd just stay down, but inevitably Leon always got back up. Eventually, the good nights became more common, he learned how to fight better, became more resilient into pain, and through the fire, a warrior emerged.
His first break came when a local wrestling trainer saw him and offered him a better sport than the bloodsport that he was surviving off of. Leon didn't have any wrestling experience, but the trainer saw real potential in the young man. Agreeing to a lopsided contract that would see Leon pay "Mr. Araceli" thirty percent of any money he made off of wrestling while under Araceli's tutelage Leon would begin his training.
A few years under the training of Mr. Araceli and Leon emerged ready to compete. Making an appearance in promotions around Denver and Aurora, for more money than the bloodsport. It still wasn't much, and most of the promotions were just temporary, all of them sketchy with their money. Impatient and ready to prove himself, Mr. Araceli convinced Leon Skies to stay patient and soak in the experience. Leon's time in Colorado would be marked as a "big fish in a small pond."
And eventually, opportunity knocked, in Bethesda Ohio a promotion called the Ascencion Wrestling Federation was making some noise and accepting rough and new prospects. Mr. Araceli had contacts willing to take a look at the young Leon Skies, where Leon might be able to take his first steps in a real promotion. So Leon made the move to Ohio, ready to take the first true steps of his career.

WRESTLING STYLE:
Flashy Striker and Technician
Leon began fighting in underground fighting pits for bloodsport, while his trainer was a very technical former wrestler. As a result, Leon uses a blend strikes with an arsenal of damaging knees and kicks, with a technical understanding to target limbs in various submission holds to wear down the will of his opponents.
He moves at a high pace, testing his opponent's stamina and is known to use flashy crowd-pleasing moves like his signature "Skies Sault" (his take on a springboard moonsault, where he rebounds off the top rope instead of the middle.) Or his Finisher "The Skies are Falling" (a Pheonix Splash) that he uses to put his opponents away.
While capable of the occasional show of power he isn't a powerhouse, and sometimes may try to lift an opponent he simply isn't capable of. Leon is also fairly inexperienced as a wrestler overall and can get into trouble against more experienced and savvy opponents who can take advantage of his impatience or inexperienced tendencies.
ENTRANCE THEME:
"Trenches" by Pop Evil
ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION:
The lights turn to deep blues, purples, and greens as the signature riff of his entrance music plays. At times the lights while taking strobe effect following the stagged riffs of the guitar. For about ten seconds the stage stays empty.
When Leon is finally revealed he is kneeling with his back to the crowd, and one arm over his knee. He pauses and slowly stands with his back still the crowd, and then spins both his arms extended out eagle spread from his body his palms facing in front of him as if he is showing himself to the crowd.
"No Time to Hide!"
Blares on the speakers as Leon makes his way down the ring. A bit of a pep in his step as head rocks to the heavy metal riff. He'll take a moment at times to pause and give a few fans a high five. Otherwise, as he moves down he'll work his way to the right of the ring instead of entering it right away. Climbing on the Apron, and working to climb up to the far turnbuckle. One foot on the top while the other is on the second rope.
"I've Waited All My Life to get out of the trenches!"
The song blares around him and once more his hands extend outward, as he presents himself to the audience again. His right arm drops and his left raises in a fist above him for a couple of seconds. Then climbing the rest of the way into the ring and down from the turnbuckle he repeats the same on the opposite.

ALL ABOUT YOU!
YOUR NAME: Untamed Skies, can go by Untamed or Skies for short if you like.
HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT US? The Short story is Reddit.
The Long story is, I've roleplayed on a different site for about 10 years, and after attempting and failing to set up a wrestling roleplay. One of the three people who was interested mentioned E-Feds. A reddit search later and I found XHF and then I found AWF.
In the coincidence of all coincidences the name of the promotion I created that crashed and burned was called Ascencion Wrestling Entertainment. Seemed like fate I found AWF.
