"Hey you!"
"You wanna join BYOB? Good fer you! My name's Trevor. Trevor Neverstone. I'm the owner, commentator, wrestler, shit I do most things. Come and sit down, you want a beer?"
"Ok, right, I'm gonna ask you some questions and you tell me a little bit about yerself ok? It's that simple."
(copy/paste this into a new thread and answer the questions IN CHARACTER.)
"So what's yer name?"
*(Name and nickname if you've got one - be as lame as you want, this is backyard wrestling after all)
"Uh-huh. I've heard better but it'll do I guess. How old are ya?"
*(Age)
"Wow, you don't look it. I would have guessed you was waaay older. Alright, how tall are ya and what do you weigh?"
*(Height and Weight)
"Jesus. Well, we ain't got no weight divisions here so hopefully nobody dies or shit like that. Where do you come from?"
*(Hometown)
"And what sorta house do you live in? Like, d'you live in a trailer, a mansion, some haunted fuckin' castle?"
*(Describe your character's house)
"Ok I hear ya. Can't wait to run a show there! So what do you do for a living? Cos, y'know, you gotta bring that to the ring, see. I'll accept if yer unemployed or a student or something, but I don't need no boring-ass wrestlers here. Doesn't have to be a job I s'pose, could be a hobby."
*(Gimmick - think New Generation WWF. A profession, hobby, social group, something like that.)
"Well shit I'm excited to see how you get that over! So what's yer personality like? I guess what I'm trying to say is, are you more of a dude or a dick?"
*(Heel or face? NOTE: Everyone will be written as slightly tweener, this is just to guide how they get along with the other characters generally.)
"I see, I see. Well we're all friends here. Alright so that just about covers all the personal details, let's talk about your ability. Every wrestler needs a finisher, what's yours?"
*(Finisher - give it a cool name and tell me what move it is in real life)
"Oh cool, I've never seen a backyard wrestler use that before... Alright, whatever. Gimme a few signature moves. Don't go fucking nuts, my notepad is only so big."
*(Signatures - up to 3, they can be named moves if you want)
"Well hopefully I've got someone on the roster who can take those moves otherwise you're gonna end up regretting choosing 'em. Alright, and how would you describe your overall style. Don't say 'Hardcore', we're all fuckin' hardcore here, that's a given."
*(Style - brawler, powerhouse, scientific, high flyer, etc.)
"Cool. Cool. Hey, you know you kinda remind me of somebody famous. Did anyone ever tell you that you look like... Ah shit, what's their name again..."
*(Photobase)
"Yes! That's it! You look like their identical fuckin' twin or somethin! Alright, nearly done. What song do you want for yer entrance?"
*(Entrance theme)
"I'll have to check to see if I got it on CD somewhere. I'll get Skeeter to download it if need be. Right - last question! Tell me a bit about yourself. Tell me what brought you here to BYOB, gimme a quick run down so I can really get to know you."
*(Brief bio)
"Awesome, all done! Well, I've got your number so I'll give you a call some time and we'll all meet up and create some fuckin' performance art! Welcome aboard!"
*(OPTIONAL: Any last thoughts)
