VITAL STATISTICS
RING NAME: Esmur
NICKNAMES: N/A
HEIGHT/WEIGHT: 6' 0", 205lbs
HOMETOWN: St. Louis, MO
AGE: 35
ALIGNMENT: Tweener
GIMMICK: After a crushing set of defeats to the Icons, the two men known as Nihilists rethought their whole philosophy on life and returned out to be the judges and jury and sometimes executioners for AWF to defend the ideal that if we all are to inevitably reach a dark end and rejoin the void ... nobody should be able to encroach on another person's ability to hit that end happy and naturally. They will personally stop all forces of injustice and those who pretend to be false gods.
PICBASE: Gran Metalik (masked)/ Aiden English (unmasked)
APPEARANCE:
Rather slim but with good muscle definition. He looks like a larger cruiserweight but as if he could have a bit of power pop as well.
TWITTER: N/A
BIOGRAPHY
Shrouded in mystery, little is known about these two men except that they have taken an interest in AWF and that something happened to them in their lives that caused them to forsake belief in anything but in each other and their talents. They only aim for victory. They don't show much in the way of emotion in terms of joy or sorrow or anger and tend to be very monotone but with a quiet intensity in the ring. They forsake pandering to the crowd, or taunting at the crowd or the opponents. They are all business and want to rise in AWF and eventually the XHF Tag Team Division. They extol the virtues of nothingness and frivolous beliefs in silly things. They discovered the AWF in their quest to find meaning beyond themselves (a quest they consider complete and a failure), and claim to have once taken part in the Church of Hyperion though left early on when they felt he was another charlatan. Esmur clearly has a background in the technical side of wrestling. He can fly but prefers to ground his foes and let Gebin do the flying.

OTHER MOVES:
WRESTLING STYLE:
Technical high flier. Not a big risktaker, would much rather ground his opponent with attacks and holds to the head and legs
ENTRANCE THEME:
"Saviour of Nothing" by Disturbed
ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION:
~The arena dims down to pitch blackness. Two male voices are heard softly saying, “Judgment ... has come” The new video package for the Arbiters plays on the XtremeTron. "Saviour of Nothing" by Disturbed begins to play and a single blue spotlight illuminates the stage. On the stage standing back to back facing either side of the arena are Esmur and Gebin, the Arbiters. The camera zooms right up from the ramp to their masked faces as they slowly turn to look at it. They tear off the masks and drop them at their feet. They then walk past the camera and out of frame as it zooms out. The two men mean business as they quickly walk to the ring and slide under the bottom rope. The push to their feet and step to the center of the ring as the spotlight turns slowly from blue to pink to white. The two men remain back to back facing the two sides of the crowd left and right of the entryway. Gebin exits the ring and Esmur waits for his match.~

PICBASE: La Sombra (masked) / Mustafa Ali (unmasked)
APPEARANCE:
An obvious cruiserweight, he wears long tights and a mask but nothing else and has well defined musculature all over his upper body. Crossfit is his anti-drug. He is slim, trim, fit, and cut. That said he is still short and light so typical cruiserweight stuff.

Gebin does the risk taking, high flying and flashy moves. He isn’t a show off per se as he stays focused but he is the one in the team who does the daring assaults when grounding a foe just isn’t working. He is quite fast and agile.

QUOTES & CATCHPHRASES
“We are the arbiters of your fate!”
MOVESET, STYLE AND ENTRANCE
FINISHERS: (max 2)
- "Descent" (Both men climb the turnbuckle together, they link arms and hit a somersault leg drop on the chest and stomach of the foe)
- "Null and Void" (Null Hypothesis from Gebin with Void from Esmur after)
SIGNATURES:
- "Acceptance" (A Claymore to a standing foe from Gebin drops him to a knee and spins him. Esmur immediately hits Clarity)
SETUP MOVES:
- "Fractured Psyche" (Esmur is the legal man and locks in a Figure Four while Gebin batters the face with elbow strikes) – Sets up Descent
OTHER MOVES:
Double arm drags, unison arm bar, paired striking, basic tag moves.
WRESTLING STYLE:
These guys are a well oiled machine in the ring. They have been together so long they are immune to the troubles other teams have when one member accidentally strikes another. They do not taunt and are all business. They work to isolate one man in the ring. However their main weakness lies in infrequent tags. They both have such good stamina and faith in themselves that they sometimes hog the ring and since the other will never insult the in ring man by calling him on it this can end up getting one man isolated for way too long in the ring. Being both smaller foes this also means a tougher comeback overcoming larger foes and longer recovery times for the injured man.
