Subject: "The Golden Voice" Kenneth Ishikari Fri Jan 24, 2020 7:34 pm
"Allow my soothing voice to calm your soul..."
BASIC INFORMATION Wrestling Name: Kenneth Ishikari Picture Base: Taichi Current Nicknames: “The Golden Voice”, “The Purveyor of Thunderous Kicks”, “His Excellency” (or “Your Excellency” when addressing him directly) Height: 6’ Weight: 221 pounds Hometown: Rome, Italy (Born in Japan, raised in Italy and the United States)
CHARACTER INFORMATION Disposition/Alignment: Choose from these options: Ruthless Heel (Intertwined with Comedic/Cowardly elements)
Gimmick: Kenneth has worked hard all of his life to master not only the art of Opera singing, but the art of professional wrestling as well. Inspired by the flamboyant, commanding performers he saw in his youth while his family was stationed in Italy, Kenneth plans to bring an “air of culture” to Gamma Pro. However, underneath the facade of a “benevolent lord” who demands people address him as “His Excellency”, there is very much a spoiled brat trapped in a grown man’s body, lashing out at the world for every personal or professional failure he’s ever had. Unofficial leader of the Rosso Battallion.
RINGSIDE INFORMATION Theme Music: “Con Te Partiro” (Time to Say Goodbye)- Andrea Bocelli & Sarah Brightman
Entrance: The lights dim save for a golden spotlight cast on the entrance ramp as Kenneth and Lady Maria, his “Muse”, make their way to the ring singing Kenneth’s entrance theme. (It’s alleged that while Maria’s voice is legitimate that Kenneth’s is “lip-synced” but these claims are completely false!)
MOTIVATIONS What are your character’s motivations for competing?- To spread the beauty of opera and classical music to the uncultured masses of the wrestling world and prove that he is the greatest performer in both mediums of entertainment.
Tendency to Cheat: Choose from these options: Always (Literally any shortcut he can take is fine by him)

NOTES: Former stablemate of Carlos Rosso when the two wrestled in Japan for a short time after both trained in the same dojo. Very fond of the color black. Limited TaeKwonDo background. Has no children, but a pet cockatiel he takes care of devotedly when not traveling.
Lady Maria (Pic Base: Miho Abe)
Kenneth’s right hand, “Muse”, and longtime girlfriend. A beautiful woman with an even more beautiful voice, unfortunately she’s blessed with horrific taste in men, hence her being around Kenneth. Loyal and trusting to a fault when it comes to him, she travels with him and does whatever she can with her limited wrestling knowledge to help him. Despite her incredible singing talent and wonderful looks, she says very little with Kenneth around, preferring to typically let him expound on how great and wonderful he is.
