Background: Named after one of the brightest stars in the sky, Vega was born and raised in the city of Sapporo with a Russian mother and Japanese father. Her name seemed to be rather prophetic as she developed an obsession with space and astronauts as a kid that she still holds as an adult. She would often find herself at young age getting into fights, even with boys, to the point that her parents enrolled her into karate class to stay out of trouble. She picked up quite quickly, and achieved her first black belt by age of 10.
The dojo was enough to keep Vega from getting into fights after school, but it did little to calm her pugnacious spirit. She would be glued to the TV whenever MMA or pro wrestling was on, and would practice moves against invisible "enemies" in the house. This commotion would be enough to convince her parents to enroll her into an MMA gym as a teenager, where she was exposed to many different techniques spanning multiple martial arts such as muay thai, boxing, and wrestling. The gym would become her home away from home, as she found it much easier to make friends there compared to school where she mainly kept to herself.
However, after high school Vega made the surprising decision to go to college overseas in the United States, enrolling at Cal-Berkley. Sure, she spoke English well and had some cousins living nearby, but it seemed rather out of character for someone who really made herself at home at her gym and rarely traveled outside of Hokkaido - nevermind Japan - to uproot herself to a different country away from it all. It didn't take long for her to find a group of friends with common interests, and she quickly joined a local MMA gym to continue training during her studies.
The Bay Area was also well known for another form of combat that Vega wasn't aware of until moving there: erotic catfighting. Her friend group introduced her to the collegiate chapter, and as was the case with karate and mma, she caught on quite quickly and soon became one of the top fighters on the team by the end of her freshman year. Through her years at Cal she was able to travel the country for tournaments and meets against other college teams in an organization by the name of the Collegiate Catfight Coalition, or C3 for short, making friends and forming rivalries with women from across the US, and by the end of her time there she was one of the top fighters in the league.
After college, however, it was time to move on again, and she moved back to Japan, presumably to find an office job. What she didn't expect was to within weeks of being back to come across a flyer advertising an upstart wrestling league that offered matches like the ones she watched on TV and also the ones she had in college alike. Vega quickly pounced on this opportunity and her LAW career began.
Personality: Vega is extremely competitive, and loves to trash talk and taunt opponents in fights. Always confident in herself, she firmly believes she can be the best at anything she sets herself to do, and likes to rub it in to those who doubt her.
However, don't mistake her confidence for maliciousness. She very much enjoys the image and reputation of a brash trouble-maker, but deep down Vega does have quite a deal of respect for anyone who competes with her, owing to her martial arts background. She loves to help others with training, and is always up for learning new tactics from anyone who'll show her how.
Outside of the gym, Vega is a bit of a loner. Whether she is out exploring or being a homebody in her apartment, she is more comfortable lost in her own thoughts than with someone else. However, most of her hobbies - cooking, painting, stargazing - would seem to be a bit more interesting if someone else was there to experience them. But alas, that doesn't seem to be in the cards for her just yet.
Fighting Style: Striking technician: Vega is at her best peppering her opponents with strikes from the outside, mixing in crisp boxing with painful kicks. When grappling she prefers to close the distance quickly to open potential avenues for submissions or even humiliation.
Strengths: Her background in various martial arts keeps her comfortable in both striking range and looking for submissions on the ground. She also has an innate scrappiness that lends itself well in catfights.
Weaknesses: Her relative lack of experience in puroresu has left her with few tools in aerial attacks. In addition to lacking much aerial offense she can often be caught off guard by opposing aerial attacks.
Preferred Matches: MMA/Brawl, Apartment Catfight/Smothers, Submission
Vega prefers fights that get up and personal, whether it is throwing hands or grappling. She'll fight anywhere, anytime, and has a soft spot for fighting on the street and at home. She doesn't mind when matches become somewhat erotic; she actually quite relishes the chance to humiliate her opponents particularly if the feeling is mutual.
