Oya "The Lioness"

Name: Oya Sokoti
Ring Name: Lioness
Age: 20
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Platinum
Height: 6'0
Weight: 150 lbs
Nationality: African

Fighting Style: Oya is a grappler who augments her wrestling with vicious, brutal kicks from those long, muscular legs of hers. It is not at all unusual to see her use knee strikes and head butts to gain (or keep) the advantage, but she is a wrestler first and foremost. She has recently begun to incorporate American and Japanese pro style moves into her usual fighting style of African material arts, particularly Gambian wrestler and Huasa boxing.

Finishing moves: She hasn't decided on a signature move as of yet, but that will soon change.

Personality: Stern, domineering and disciplined, Oya carries herself like the warrior she is. While not a heel, she lacks the moral compass of a face. She is very 'mercenary' in a sense, and will cheat or go out of her way to hurt another wrestler if offered reward for doing so. It's nothing personal. Despite being an extremely prideful young woman, Oya does have a good natured, even friendly side that she will show to another fighter who's earned her respect.

History:

Tight lipped about her past, what is known is that Oya has been training in the marital arts since childhood and has traveled the width of Africa, earning the respect of warrior societies who didn't usually accept women into their ranks. When she was 19 Oya became entranced by the glitz and glamour and spectacle of the international wrestling scene. Wanting nothing more then to get her name out there, known among millions of viewers, she has recently been accepted into the promotion.
