WRESTLER INFO
Real Name: Ivelisse Ligaya Josephine Fontanilla Thompson.
Ring Name: Ligaya Fontaine.
Nicknames: The Blazin' Blasian.
Height: 5'7" / 1.70m.
Weight: 138lbs / 63kg.
Billed From: Courtenay, British Columbia, Canada.
Originally From: Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Current Residence: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
Gender: Female.
Date of Birth: 17/12/1993.
Physical Description: Average build, toned. Ass-length hair, usually braided for matches, and frequently dyed. She doesn't always grow one dye out before redoing it, so she ends up with a kind of muddy multicoloured look a lot of the time. Brown eyes. Mixed race: 1/2 Philippine, 1/4 Kenyan, 1/4 Irish. Heavily tattooed including full sleeves. Nose stud.
Picture Base: Currently Alexis Brown, but I'm considering changing her to Kayden Carter.
Ring Attire: Long tights, mid-calf boots, armbands of varying lengths reaching over her palms, strappy top - all in matte black with an embossed print of stitching (a la Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas) in a bold colour, and an abstract design vaguely reminiscent of a hash leaf in another. The default colours are red and green respectively, but she wears others sometimes.
Regular Attire: Rock/metal band tees, hoodies, studded belts and bracelets, jeans or leather trousers, combat boots or scuffed trainers.
Manager: N/A
Character's Twitter: @ligaya420
BIOGRAPHY
Personality: Ligaya is smart, but spacier than actual outer space, and so laidback she's probably asleep. She hasn't been sober once since she was 13. Her memory is kinda like if a sieve and a goldfish had a baby and that baby got dropped on its head. She's friendly to everyone, even people who are actively trying to harm her at that very moment. She definitely doesn't read people well and kinda just lives in her own little world for the most part - a world which mostly consists of cartoons and videogames. She's definitely the calm one in contrast to Serenity, though she's come to rely on Serenity so much that she pretty much just goes along with whatever Serenity says, assuming that she knows best.
Personal History: Originally from a trailer park just outside of Vancouver, Ligaya was one of the "weird kids"; naturally smart and athletic but never encouraged by her teachers, she ended up being that one in the crew with the particularly advanced knowledge of drugs and alcohol at a young age, and could usually be persuaded to do anything, no matter how stupid, for a nickel bag or a forty. Her friend Jordan was always looking out for her, which was fortunate, as Ligaya possibly wouldn't have made it out of adolescence if left to her own devices. Things took a turn when Ligaya's father took a job in Courtenay, all the way out on Vancouver Island. In her new town, she made a lot of superficial friends but very few close ones, and her life was generally wild but unfulfilling.
So, when Jordan invited her to train with her as pro wrestlers, Ligaya didn't hesitate to say yes. She'd always enjoyed watching wrestling, and what's more, her cousin Leanne all the way over in England was quite the emerging talent in the sport. Leanne referred the pair to her own training school, Battlegrounds Academy, operated by Shane Tallin - and so the young women relocated to Ottawa. Ligaya turned out to have something of a natural aptitude for wrestling. Ever since then, Ligaya has largely let Jordan (now known as Serenity) dictate their career path, while trying to be supportive of her friend in her own psychological struggles.
Career History: Ligaya and Serenity debuted as 420 B.C. in November 2013 and they've been a tag team ever since, though Ligaya did have a fairly successful solo run in the short-lived Dominion Wrestling Alliance (still with some offscreen assistance from Serenity). Over the years they've competed for a number of promotions including Hard Knox Wrestling, Lion's Den FC, Twin City Wrestling, Snow Maple Grappling, and Filthy Bazaar. Their only shared accolade to date is a brief reign as SMG Tag Team Champions, as thanks to a combination of Serenity's poor mental health, Ligaya's struggles with focus and motivation and a shared antipathy towards too much travel, they've often struggled to find a foothold in any companies for long. Ligaya's also had a couple of reigns with a 24/7 title, though. Ligaya's actually kind of a natural at wrestling, but she lacks the focus and willpower to do much with it, so Serenity has put a lot of herself into trying to help Ligaya be the star she's capable of being.
It's rumoured that Ligaya deals weed to other wrestlers.
Associates:
* Ligaya Fontaine - best friend and tag team partner.
* Evangelista, her cousin, whom she sees as something of a role model. The fact she uses Fontaine rather than Fontanilla is a nod to Leanne's own ring name when she started out in GEW.
* Having trained at Battlegrounds Academy, she's also mostly on good terms with that school's staff and other graduates.
Title History:
* 1 x SMG Tag Team Champion (with Serenity)
* 2 x IGNITE 24/7 Extreme Champion
MATCH-WRITING INFO
Entrance Theme:
* Skindred - "Kill The Power" (singles matches)
* "Living Dead Superstars" by Zombie Girl (when teaming with Serenity)
Entrance Description: (For tag team entrances, see 420 B.C.'s team bio.)
A cheer goes up for the intro of Skindred's "Kill The Power", and the team known as 420 B.C., Ligaya Fontaine and Serenity, emerge. Serenity walks to the ring at the pace of a bride walking down the aisle, clutching a bouquet of dead flowers, while Ligaya jogs back and forth around her, high fiving and hugging fans. Ligya slides into the ring and jumps up onto the far ropes, leaning over them and pumping up the crowd, while Serenity rests her flowers on the apron and begins skulking back and forth at ringside. Ligaya plays to different sections of the auditorium for a bit, hyping them up, before leaping to the top turnbuckle in her corner and sitting there, waiting for the match to start while Serenity whispers words of advice to her.
Fighting Style & Mindset: Primarily technical grappling with a focus on submission, backed up with some explosive flying. There must be something in the Fontanilla DNA because like her cousin Leanne, Ligaya is a naturally gifted wrestler, flexible and creative, with a knack for innately knowing what move she needs in any given situation. She's fairly resistant to mind games (mainly because she doesn't even notice them) and never, ever gets mad, but she's very easily distracted. She's also incredibly spacey, slow to capitalise on an advantage, and "killer instinct" is a concept she simply cannot wrap her mind around. She tends to hype up the crowd a lot - too much, if anything. When not engaged, she likes to sit down, especially on the top turnbuckle.
Primary Finisher:
01. "Tentacle Monster" - Bridging grounded double chickenwing (i.e. Cattle Mutilation).
Alternative Finisher:
01. Senton bomb. Preferred finisher against opponents too broad-shouldered for the Tentacle Monster.
Signature Moves / Spots:
01. "Battlegrounds Uppercut" - European uppercut, pushing the opponent's head down with her other hand.
02. "Deathcuddle" - Double underhook with bodyscissors.
03. "Ground Pound" - Standing shooting star into seated senton press to supine opponent.
04. "Nuclear Underflow" - Arm wringer, keeping the hold applied while twisting through behind the opponent into a hammerlock hangman's neckbreaker.
05. "Pinay Legsweep" - Tornado into side Russian legsweep, without touching the ground (adopted from Evangelista).
06. Kneeling armbar with knee pressed to spine.
07. Leaping seated senton, especially to an opponent slumped in the corner.
08. Release German suplex followed by standing moonsault without looking.
09. Running elbow drop to spine of prone opponent.
10. Spinning toehold, followed by knee strikes to ribs while keeping the opponent's leg twisted up.
Common Moves:
01. Assorted cradles and roll-ups - she's good at pulling them out of nowhere.
02. Abdominal stretch.
03. Back thrust kick.
