ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION
"Luna est dominae, volkodlak malorum
Artes et perditae, lycan incarnatus
Luna est dominae, volkodlak malorum
Artes et perditae, lycan incarnatus"
A dense fog rolls out along the entrance ramp, the haunting whispered chant growing in volume along with the pulsing tempo of the music. A hulking horned beast appears from the gloom, slowly and methodically stalking towards the ring. His leather doomsday cloak is open over his massive chest, each step bringing him further into the light until "The Monster Machine" is revealed in full. The dark and Gothic chanting continues, music swelling in volume as each pulse in the tempo and each measured step of the monster are in sync.
"Rota, vita, mara, vena
Mare, dracul, morte, vita
Rota, vita, mara, vena
Mare, dracul, morte, vita"
ENIGMA ascends the ring steps and subtly wipes his feet on the apron, turning towards the crowd as he removes the horned skull mask, revealing his soot-streaked face and colorless eyes. Throwing his head back, he sprays a bloody mist into the air before letting out a snarl. When his head lowers, blood drips from his chin, down his heaving chest.
ALIGNMENT
LAWFUL GOOD
GIMMICK
Scary, ominous and spoopy but he's the biggest teddy bear ever outside of the ring.
RING PSYCHOLOGY (IN-RING ATTITUDE)
Absolutely LOVES the business, would give the shirt off his back to compete in the ring until the end of time. Will never cheat but is not really aware of his own strength so sometimes will be a little more brutal than he should be (gets carried away in the moment).
WRESTLING STYLE
POWERHOUSE: Your character relies on brute strength and size to simply throw their opponents around the ring, using high impact moves - often to make up for sub par technical capabilities.
TECHNICAL: Your character is well versed in various holds, takedowns and suplexes - giving them a strong, mat based style.
ATTITUDE TOWARDS CHEATING
NEVER
STRENGTHS
1. Superior Stamina - very jacked but has put in the work to be able to hang longer with the smaller wrestlers
2. Speed - Surprisingly faster (and more agile) than his imposing size would imply
3. Freakishly Strong - Has managed recently to press double his body weight with his legs and has competed in the past in competitive weightlifting, capturing several medals. His strikes are devastating.
WEAKNESSES
1. Lacks Confidence - After years working in an abusive and toxic partnership, has been conditioned to doubt his own instincts and talents.
2. (Too Damn) Nice - And maybe a little naïve as well? He will fall for people who feign injury as he doesn't really get why they would mislead or lie.
3. Brute Squad - While he packs a wallop with his strikes and can lift anything (as well as sucking up a lot of damage), he sucks at things that require more agility like climbing ladders or keeping pace with lucha and highflyers.
4. Age - While he still works his ass off to be at his physical peak, he is approaching his golden years and isn't as quick or as agile as he once was.
ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT DO
Cheating. Striking a woman in anger (outside of a match, obviously). Anything remotely "evil" or "malicious". Will never exploit an injury that is known beforehand but may be oblivious to those inflicted in the heat of the moment when he is carried away with the passion of battle.

BIOGRAPHY
If you had the pleasure of reading "Of Mice And Men" in high school, he's a lot like Lennie Small. He's huge and has the strength of a bear, but his actions for the vast part of his career were often described like those of an obedient dog. He's kind and gentle, labelled as "simple" by some although he's far from stupid. He rarely spoke in those early days, embarrassed by his Russian accent although it has faded quite a bit over two decades of working in North America. He used to let his partner Pyro do all the talking for him (which was not the best move, given that the man was an absolute asshole). Sev worked as part of the veteran curtain jerking tag team called The Ring Crew in such notable early 90's promotions as the World Class Wrestling Federation and Pure Elite Wrestling to name a few. When WCWF closed its doors for good in 2003, he went on to wrestle the occasional match in high school gymnasiums and rec-centers throughout the Midwest, helping to put the up-and-comers over. In 2018, he worked for six months in WWH's Sanitarium brand where he served as muscle for Warden Jackson, actually managing to win a few matches, much to the annoyance of his less-successful partner. The pair went to New York in 2019 to wrestle for 5BW, not having much success. The duo signed with UPRISING as enhancement talent and ENIGMA was noticed by Jack Moreau (fka LEGION) and was recruited as an enforcer for the Church of the 7th Circle, a band of misfits that were freed from their shackles and set loose as minions. When the group crumbled, ENIGMA refused to return to that toxic former teaming and sought to return to 5BW to forge his own path. Surprising himself more than anyone else, he found that without these restraints and the constant belittling of his so-called partner, he COULD actually succeed in the business he had loved so much for so long. He has been working on his English with his manager (who became his girlfriend and then fiancée in the process) and is now venturing out to expand his horizons. The future is bright for a man who has won his freedom.
