Wrestling Information
Strategy: A unique hit and run specialist, Riri depends on her impressive speed to overwhelm her opponents with a flurry of attacks. High-flying kicks and punches are her specialty, as she bounces around the ring while delivering strikes every chance she gets. Incredibly light on her feet, Riri thrives by becoming an immense pest to her opponents as she dodges attacks with ease while seemingly never tiring as she zips and zooms around them.
Riri takes pride in being a true nuisance while in the ring. She combines her skirmish-like tactics with an array of verbal taunts and constant teasing with her signature pervy charm to disrupt her opponent's game even more. The combined effect of her never-ending barrage of strikes and her targeted harassment campaign often provide the edge she needs to outmaneuver and fluster larger or more skilled foes.
Naturally, someone as swift-footed as Riri easily finds sanctuary on the ropes and in the air. Her agile and nimble nature combine well with her high-energy personality as she performs various aerial techniques in order to rain down hell from above. Superman punches from the turnbuckle, dropkicks from the ropes, diving elbows off the corner - all are fair game in Riri's pursuit to overwhelm her opponents from every possible angle.
However, Riri isn't as invincible as she thinks she is. Her habit for reckless behavior can often place her in dangerous situations, and while Riri is an expert at dodging attacks, blows that do land tend to have an amplified affect on the relatively lightweight and feeble girl. Her overwhelming strike-based move set means she can only usually win by KO or pinfall as opposed to submissions, further limiting her avenues for victory. While she is a participant in the Young Lionesses program, her contempt for authority and her headstrong attitude has made her stubborn when it comes to actually learning new moves and styles.

Tagger's delight: Riri makes her mark on her opponent in this flashy finisher. With her opponent slumped up against the corner, Riri cartwheels her way over to them before slamming into them with a powerful hip attack, followed by tossing them into the mat with a front headlock throw. Finally, she twirls around her opponent in one last humiliating display before rebounding off the ropes and dropkicking them into oblivion for that sweet KO win.

Personality: Riri is an energetic and free-spirited girl, one who has been opposed to all forms of authority for as long as she can remember. She is highly independent and self motivated to the point where she rarely relies on anyone else for help or guidance, instead preferring to rely on her own instinct and momentary whims to guide her through life. While she rarely holds actually hatred for anyone, you will definitely find yourself on her bad side if you even think about telling her what to do. She is innately kind and caring, but Riri tends to serve her own self interests first. She doesn't seem to hold the concept of personal space in high regard either, and will causally encroach on girls she thinks are cute if her desires deem it so. This can often lead to pervy tactics in the ring, even in non-hentai matches as she often lets her emotions get the better of her.
Riri tends to think highly of herself sometimes to the point where she thinks she is incapable of error. While this train of thought has led her to being abundantly self-confident, it can also sometimes lead her astray with reckless actions and selfish desires. She tends not to dwell on the consequences of her actions, letting impulse and desire motivate her instead. Her self-centered nature sometimes translates into her deriding others. While she would hardly use those words to describe her actions, their is no denying that she likes to excessively taunt and tease others for seemingly no reason at all. She takes great pleasure in berating her foes, but will profusely state that she is doing so in good fun as opposed to malicious intent. She loves to banter with girls who can dish it out just as good as they can take it, and immediately labels anyone who takes offense to her comments as "wimps" and "sissies" among other things.
Riri is also insanely competitive, almost to an annoying degree. She loves to exaggerate her wins while diminishing her losses, and will often come up with excuses when things don't go her way. She'll hold grudges against people who beat her, some of which can even develop into full blown rivalries. She won't hesitate to throw herself up against superior opponents or even hardcore matches if she thinks they'll give her a chance at glory. While she harbors genuine abilities and ambition, some think her reckless behaviors is what is ultimately preventing her from achieving greatness. Only time will tell if her stint in the Young Lioness Program will be enough to discipline her raw talent into skill, or if she will ultimately dig in her heels and continue her headstrong behavior to the bitter end.
History: A lone wolf from the very start, Riri grew up in an orphanage on the outskirts of Tokyo never knowing who her parents were or where her heritage lay. Unlike many of the other kids at the facility, this fact never really bothered her, and she quickly adapted to the fact that she was going to have to learn many of life's lessons on her own. She became disillusioned with the orphanage from a very young age and became a thorn in the side of the adults who tried desperately to tame the young girl. The only thing that seemed to work was providing Riri was a paintbrush and a canvas on which to work, and her artistic endeavors quietly quelled her rebellious instincts, at least until she was introduced to graffiti art.
It was on the way home from school that she witnessed what was perhaps the most beautiful mural she had ever seen. It was on the side of a local shop that she passed by on her daily commute. Rich colors and designs encapsulated her imagination, and it was from that very moment that she knew graffiti art was the medium that she wanted to master. She became infatuated with the mural, missing classes just to stare at the piece that was so intriguing to both her heart and mind. What bugged her the most about it, however, was the fact that the artist hadn't bothered to tag it with their name or signature. This fact puzzled Riri, who couldn't possibly fathom why an artist as talented as this one wouldn't want the world to know what they were capable of producing. Riri vowed to never make that same mistake herself.
It didn't take much convincing for Riri to sneak out one night and steal the supplies she needed from a local art shop. Pretty soon, she was tagging every surface she came across. Spray painted amateur designs gradually increased in complexity and beauty as the years passed by. Her magnum opus came when she spray-painted the wall of her school with a magnificent mural in the dead of the night. The school administration didn't take too kindly to the act of "vandalism" however, and Riri was immediately expelled from the school as well as heavily punished back home at the orphanage.
In a fit of rage, Riri decided from then on that she didn't need anyone else's approval for anything she did in her life. She ran away from the orphanage and made a living as a street artist, always holding a deep-seated contempt for those who judged her. Life on the streets was tough, and Riri became exposed to a rough and gritty lifestyle. She strayed away from gangs, drugs, and other crimes, but it was while she was looking for an alleyway to paint over that she stumbled into the middle of an organized streetfight. It was violent and messy, but Riri couldn't deny that she had been looking for a way to release her pent-up anger for quite some time now, and this seemed like the perfect way of doing it while also earning some much needed dough.
And so she threw herself into the fray, and as one might expect, she did horribly. But more importantly, she learned and she grew, and soon mounting losses slowly turned into mounting wins. The tightly packed alleyways forced her to adopt a unique fighting style. While her opponents stuck to the ground, Riri bounced off walls, using the momentum to unleash devastating flying punches and kicks. She found herself rapidly climbing the ranks of the underground circuit, even finding her way to unsanctioned wrestling events. Here she adopted her Riri Graffiti moniker as part of her full-time gig, making use of her colorful and lively personality as part of her reckless and high-risk in-ring persona. Soon her love of fighting grew to rival her love of art itself, except there was one aspect that underground combat lacked that she desired above all else: Fame. It was a niche market, one that didn't attract much attention. Legitimate organizations and leagues however were far-reaching and just the thing she needed to propel both herself and her artistic flare into the stardom that she so desperately desired.
And being a Tokyo resident meant that she had to look no further than LAW itself, the world's premier wrestling organization. With recruiting season just around the corner, Riri thought she'd try her luck. The recruiters seemed to sense the talent within her from the very start, but her headstrong impression during interviews and tryouts began to worry them. Confident that she was on the fast track to stardom, Riri was bewildered when she was offered a contract with one annoying stipulation: She had to go through the Young Lionesses program first. While most girls would kill for the opportunity, Riri couldn't help but feel slightly insulted. All that time in the underground circuit had allowed her to develop a style that she viewed as unique and effective, complete with signatures and finishers that the girls in the program weren't even close to being able to perform. The managers even agreed with her sentiments, but insisted that while she had the talent, her reckless behavior would give the organization more trouble than she was worth, and if she wanted any chance to fight in the big leagues, she was first going to have to refine both her skills and her mindset in the Young Lioness program first.
Reluctantly, Riri signed her name on the dotted line. There was no doubt in her mind that she was on her way to being a champion eventually, even if it meant she had to beat up a few no-name rookies in this stupid program to get there. But then again, who knows... she might even learn a thing or two and meet a few interesting people along the way...
Fun Facts:
Tag Artist: Riri always makes sure to add her name to all of her finished works, included her knocked out opponents. This is why she likes to keep a felt marker on hand to sign off her name on their defeated bodies. While she's there, she might even sneak in a vulgar doodle or two.
City Girl: Riri also likes to use her urban graffiti artist moniker as part of her entrance. This can include everything from skateboarding down the ramp, wearing urban (yet revealing) attire, or carrying a spray can or two to tag the ring itself.
Artist and Activist: Riri is a huge figure in the graffiti scene and has petitioned local governments to recognize graffiti art for what it is: Art, and not just vandalism. Her efforts have proven successful, and fully approved pieces can now be seen on some of the walls of Tokyo's many buildings and alleyways.
KO for the win: Nothing quite satisfies Riri as much as a good victory via KO, although she'll begrudgingly take the pin or even submission if she really has to.
Gnarly Dude!: Riri is an able skateboarder as well, having picked it up out of necessity while living on the streets as a means of transportation. She's even adopted it as part of her wrestling aesthetic, although she must admit that she isn't as in-tune with skateboarding culture as she'd like to be.
Ramen anyone?: Despite living on her own for several years now, (with two of those being in an actual apartment) Riri still hasn't learnt how to cook for herself yet. Instead she relies on ready made meals and fast food, but justifies her unhealthy eating habits with the vigorous exercise that comes from being a full-time wrestler.
Can and Brush: Riri is equally as skilled with a paintbrush in hand as she is with a spray can, but she likes to keep this fact on the downlow so as not to interfere with her "urban" aesthetic.
Watch yo profanity: Riri has a tendency to swear... like alot... especially when she's losing
