REAL NAME - Derek Stone
STAGE NAME - Derek Draven
NICKNAME(S) - Formerly known by the monikers, “The Mat Mechanic” and “The Harvester of Sorrow” "The Dark Prophet"
DATE OF BIRTH - May, 1976
PLACE OF BIRTH -Albany, NY
HEIGHT & WEIGHT - 5’9 220lbs
DEBUT YEAR - 2000
ALIGNMENT - Is your character a FACE or a HEEL? Heel
ALLIES - Does your character have any friends? N/A
RIVALS - Does your character have any enemies? N/A
PAST INJURIES - Surgically repaired left knee, and has undergone several shoulder surgeries on the right arm for rotator cuff issues
BIOGRAPHY - Derek Draven was a young prodigy in an era where the business was full of people doing insane maneuvers to grab attention. Derek focused on a realistic style of wrestling and a smash mouth attitude in regards to defending the ailing kayfabe. However, upon his “break” in the business with Global Wrestling, all that became null and void. Draven quickly tired of failing gimmicks and limited exposure choosing to align himself with powerful figures in the company on and off screen. After leaving Global Wrestling and fading more or less to obscurity, the self-proclaimed “Pariah of Professional Wrestling” has emerged, a solo figure but just as dark and ominous as any man flanked by his former cohorts in the Nevermore. The self-professed Pariah of Professional Wrestling sees this as his last opportunity in this business and has every intention of making it count.
EQUIPMENT - Street attire, usually grungy and unwashed jeans with a similarly filthy t-shirt of likely some eighties era hair band. Derek wears black combat-style boots and in recent years has shed the only padding wrestling allows kneepads and elbow pads in favor of a more dangerous striking surface.
WALKOUT ATTIRE - N/A
CASUAL ATTIRE - Some variation of his ring attire.
WALKOUT THEME - N/A
WALKOUT DESCRIPTION - No music plays to alert the crowd that Derek Draven will be entering the arena. It’s just the figure himself emerging into view and walking with a purpose toward the ring. Derek rolls under the bottom rope and casually walks to a neutral corner.
WEAPONS - Brass Knuckles, Exposed razor blades on finger tips (think original Sheik, Abdullah, Bruiser Brody) etc
FAVOURITE MATCH TYPE - Street fights. Recent years have seen Draven earning most of his income on the underground bare knuckle fighting scene.
SPORTSMANSHIP - Derek Draven is now a cold, methodical man. A win is a win, a paycheck is a paycheck. Violence is the only form of capitalist venture Draven understands. If that means injury or harm, so be it.
The subtle eye will notice Derek cracking smiles after the match, win lose or draw. As if the fight itself was a calming experience for him. Each foray into the squared circle is opportunity for this madman to live out his violent gospel, his sermons of sacrifice. Win lose or draw, Draven is just excited to fight.
FIGHTING STYLE - Derek has been fighting and grappling people far beyond his size since he first stepped into the ring. He has an outstanding technical wrestling acumen in his repertoire but generally isn’t entering the ring to put on an athletic exhibition of his abilities. Instead, Derek will employ a vast arsenal of vicious strikes, mainly headbutts and palm strikes to directly stun an opponent. Choosing only to display any technical prowess once he has firm control of the match. Derek likens it to a cat playing with injured prey.
FINISHING MOVES - Saloak (Jason Kincaid’s version of the Japanese Strangle-Hold)
Dravenizer-(Falcon Arrow in which both legs are pulled in for a cradle like pinfall attempt. Extremely rare, old Global Wrestling finish.)
SIGNATURE MOVES - “Scythe of Sorrow”(Discuss lariat)
FAVOURITE MOVES - Piledriver variants, unprotected headbutts, blatant chokes (rear naked, etc) running double stop to the abdomen, neckbreaker variants
COUNTER MOVES - Headbutt to the nose/facial region with no regard for personal safety, low blow, snap piledriver
