Type: Hardcore Technician
Attitude to Hentai: ”Depends.”
Preferred Matches: No DQ, I Quit, HIAC
Signature Match - 1

Signature Moves
Downward Spiral
With an approaching opponent, Styx dips down, lifts them by the waist, spins several times to build momentum, and then plants them with a side slam.
Hard Time
A Gory Special. Styx stretches her opponent's arms out, leaving them helpless to escape while she wears them down. Once satisfied, she usually converts the move into a Razor’s Edge, or a Gory Neckbreaker if they’re too heavy.
RTS
A bicycle kick that Styx breaks out fast, usually as a way to shut down running opponents.
Finishing Moves
Saturday Night Special
With an opponent supine, Styx runs in and hits them with a leaping elbow to the face. She occasionally does this off the top rope and has even been known to target the back of the head.
Chaos Theory
Styx gets behind a standing opponent, traps them in a half nelson with one hand and chokes them with the other. She can wrap her legs around them for a bodyscissor after this to worsen the move, or convert it into a suplex for added damage. She’ll sometimes take the opportunity to bite her opponents when the referee can’t see it, or it's a hardcore match.
Midnight Bliss
An Octopus Stretch, where Styx uses her free hands to maul the opponent’s breast and work over their pussy.
Death Row
Styx gets her opponent up for a powerbomb, then lets their upper body fall, drops to her knees, and drives their head into the mat.
Personal Information
Personality
Some people are just shit. They don’t have any reason to be. They didn’t get beat up as children. They weren’t bullied. They didn’t have bad parents, grew up poor, or played too much GTA. They’re not suffering from some genetic disorder and they don’t have a mental imbalance. They had a perfectly normal, mundane, average upbringing with a solid support network, went to a good school in a decent city, had engaging and loving parents, and had all the hallmarks of a stable life - and yet, somehow, despite all of that, they managed to become terrible people. It doesn’t happen often, but a person occasionally comes out wrong.
That, in a nutshell, is River Styx.
Styx is a rotting pile of neurosis and hatred. She revels in chaos, and while it might seem like she has no purpose or method to her madness, she does have ideals and motivations, as crazy as they may be. She views wrestling as a proving ground, the closest thing the modern world will ever have to the Roman Coliseum, a brutal proving ground where only the strong should survive by any means necessary.
She’s also oddly well-spoken and verbose for someone who presents themselves as a thug.

History
River Stevenson grew up in a normal home, with normal parents and normal siblings, in a normal suburb of a normal town. She went to a normal school and had normal teachers. She wasn’t abused, wasn’t bullied, didn’t fall off a bike and hit her head. On paper, she should have gone on to be an average, unremarkable member of society.
And yet…
From an early age, it was clear that something just wasn’t right with River. She was quiet but prone to random bouts of anger over the most minor issues. She would steal things that there was no reason for her to steal, simply to do it. While she was an above-average student and did well on tests, she would bully her peers into doing homework for her, even when she could have quickly done it herself. She seemed to revel in dominating others, in manipulating and imposing her will.
As such, the world of wrestling was a natural fit. She joined Great Lakes Wrestling, a big promotion in the area, and became one of the most notorious female wrestlers in the States, infamous for her bloody hardcore matches and backstage assaults. She formed a stable called WAR and made it her business to ‘purify wrestling’, bucking against the growing trend of soft hentai matches and promoting rough, lawless wrestling. Despite her fiendish behavior, she grew a fanbase, resonating with fans who hated how modern pro wrestling was going.
Then the ‘accident’ happened.
Styx had a feud with American Glory, GLW’s premier heroine and a constant rival. The two of them were engaged in a brutal electrified cage match, one that was reaching an insane conclusion, when - allegedly - a malfunction happened and caused the wires to short circuit, setting the ring on fire. No one is sure what exactly occurred in the smoke and flames, but when it was all cleared, Styx miraculously walked out with only minor burns, while Glory didn’t walk out at all.
An investigation found that a broken neck had killed her, though the examiner was unable to determine what exactly had caused it. Styx remained mum on the subject, claiming she had no idea, but given her less-than-sterling criminal history, it was hard to take her seriously. She was taken to court, and after a one year trial, she was sentenced to manslaughter and put away for ten years.
It was a controversial decision, and while many thought it was best that she go away, others believed she was wrongly accused. Styx remained popular with the hardcore wrestling community, and rumors about her spread while she was incarcerated, with many expecting her to return once she was released.
And lo and behold, she did - just not where anyone expected her to. With no American wrestling company willing to hire her, Styx has somehow made her way into LAW, with many believing that she had some followers in the hiring committee to push for her inclusion. Some say that such a controversial figure might bring eyes to LAW’s hardcore division, while others believe the fox has just entered the henhouse. Even stranger still, she showed up in Japan covered in strange new tattoos, leaving many to wonder what exactly she’d been doing with her time in prison.

Main Outfit
+The name didn’t just come out of nowhere. Styx is a lover of mythology, Greek in particular, and is oddly knowledgeable.
+It’s unknown who gave her all the tattoos, but whoever it was, they seemed to have shared their expertise. Styx is a capable tattoo artist in her own right and even has a rig set up for it.
+Has a small collection of books she’s building up. Prefers physical media over digital.
+Styx maintains a strong presence online and routinely interacts with her fans, a big part of why she’s managed to keep a fanbase despite all the allegations surrounding her. Her fans called themselves ‘the Cult’, a nickname they took ownership off from their detractors. Some of them are quite devoted however, and she’s occasionally used their interference to help win matches.
