Author's Notes - Himeko is meant for the more straightforward matches, mostly standard and some hardcore stuff. While she can handle a lot of hard hits and is good for showing off a character's toughness, she herself is also very tough and hard to crack, both combat wise and socially. She's not really meant for the softcore or hentai stuff, but some good plotting and story-reasoning can change that with right motivations. That said, she isn't available for hentai match, but is available sexual/sensual things backstage if the plotting is right.

Entrance music - The fear is oneselfWrestling Info
Alignment - Tweener
Fighting Style - Himeko uses a brutal style of judo that focuses on throws and slams while punching and kicking on downed opponents during a grapple. While it looks simple at a glance, it's a style that was made for real combat to crush bones and spirits alike.
Type - Grappling Brawler
Basic Moveset - Armbars, Boston Crabs, Sleeper Holds, Ground-and-Pound
Strengths - Due to her years of training and experience in competitive sparring, official competitions, and actual street fights, Himeko is able to take a shocking amount of punishment given her small body. While short and lacking reach her body has been pounded into the steel her moniker implies, with her very skin and bones being seen as rough had hard to crack. Along with this, unlike most in her weight class Himeko is more than capable of lifting, throwing, and slamming down opponents much larger than, a mix of muscles built over the years and learning proper technique to manipulate momentum and handle larger opponents.
Weaknesses - For all Himeko's experience, that experience was learned through official competitions and grounded street fights, the Princess has little experience or knowledge in the more flashy styles and high-flying techniques techniques of pro wrestling, making the handful moves she's tripped up by nearly fatal. And for as steely her resolve is, it tends to rust and crumble against more sexually charged opponent, completely leaving Himeko flustered and enraged.
Match Preferences: Submission Matches, Hardcore Matches, and Standard Matches
Signature Move(s)
- 54th Crossing: A judo counter throw known as a Ushiro Goshi. If an opponent attempts a throw utilizing Himeko's shoulder, back, or neck, she'll grab them by the waist before they can throw her and instead lift them up off their feet and onto their back. Alternatively she can simply lift them from behind. This motion can also be used for a powerbomb, backbreaker, or heavy bodyslam if she's feeling flashy (she rarely feels flashy).
Spoiler
- 9th Circle: A flashy judo thrown known as a Tomoe Nage. Often down during a test of strength, Himeko will give way and lean herself back, grabbing her opponent's wrist to force them down with her while placing her foot over their stomach or waist before tossing them high above. She can also do this over the ropes to for an opponent out of the ring either for a count out or to force a break between them.
Spoiler
Finishing move(s)
- 6th Lock: A judo pin known as a Tate Shio Gatame that Himeko often used in judo matches. Against an opponent down on their back, Himeko will straddle them around their waist or stomach, then pushes herself down on either side of their shoulder with one of her arms wrapped around their head for a minor choke. She's keep the opponent down for a pin count or tapout. Alternatively, she'll repeatedly punch the opponent in the face with her free hand if they try to struggle out of the pin.

It was around this time she learned about LAW, and professional wrestling in general. She had always noticed the pro wrestling business and had shrugged it off as an entertaining sideshow to the more competitive combat sports, but as its popularity rose and she noticed more and more martial artists proper taking to the company, even losing some gym and dojo members to it, she found herself both curious and enraged.
