Noelia In Life
A Skilled Huntress of the Undead
Although Cocky
Moments Away From Death
Become the Very Thing She Hunted, Turned Against the Church
Kayfabe Note: This is meant to have happened somewhere between the mid-to-late 1700's and early 1800's, so ignore the background stuff that doesn't fit.
Spoiler
Noelia Carnicero Cortez is a charismatic sort. That one person who manages to stand out in the center of the crowd at a party, being its very pulse. Very self-assured. Alpha and competitive. In a fight (and during sex) she's aggressive and brimming with energy, becoming increasingly more so in the face of a challenging opponent. She also has a certain darkness inside of her that flares up from time to time. Something bestial, like she's an animal in human guise. When that side of her comes out, it's oftentimes an intimidating, even frightening experience.
Salma Serrano Dominguez is still very much this, but without the overt aggression and sometimes animalistic vibes. She's a self-described martial arts nerd and a lover of the horror genre, particularly of vampire fiction. She's also a musical person who has a preference for tunes from the 90's to early 2000's, dancing her nights away, and possesses a good eye for business matters. Qualities that came together nicely to bring her success as a club owner.

Part 1
Salma Serrano Dominguez enjoyed a comfortable upper middle class upbringing in Madrid, alongside her older sister Olga. Their competitive natures would make for much of the excitement in their home, with the sisters never going long without trying to one-up each other in some form or another. Who could climb further up a tree, who could run the fastest down the block, who could bring home the trophy or medal from their respective martial tournaments (Salma would take up Hapkido, while Olga would be taught Freestyle wrestling), who could win their next boxing or kickboxing bout the fastest (with Salma taking kickboxing), get more votes for Homecoming Queen when their respective times came in high school, who people considered prettier...
Their contests would be never-ending, only being put on pause after Olga joined the military after graduating from college. Salma would look to establish herself in the nightlife, taking advantage of a windfall property to turn a vision she had into a reality: She'd always had a liking for darker aesthetics. Gothic architecture. And older music in electronic genres, around the 90's to early 2000's, which she felt reached deeper inside the listener. Did more the get them moving. Had a tendency of awakening something more...Primal.
It was like one of those eureka moments in film, a happenstance choice of words giving her a name for the club, which she'd been searching for for months. Everything else had already been thought of: The largely stony make, something that looked more like a castle or a large medieval church on the outside. An interior that was lit in the color of passion. Cages up high for professional dancers. A vampiric gimmick for herself, complete with an alias and fangs, because why not? It was a popular act for past partners, so chances were that it would help get more eyes on the club.
She'd even thought of how she'd utilize the spacious basement.
There was plenty of room to house an octagon and a small audience. Firstly, it would be an entertaining way for patrons to settle their disputes, after they've signed legal waivers. And there was a small time MMA promotion-to-be named the "Weapons of Destruction" that was looking for a venue to set up shop in, and they were happy to make a deal with her. Salma -- going by Noelia Carnicero Cortez -- was originally content to sit back and watch from the best seat in the house, but her patrons would clamor to see more of her after she stepped inside the octagon with the first WoD champion, who was feeling lucky after getting the belt around her waist. She took her shot, hoping to find a second prize in Noelia.
Unimpressed by what she's seen, Noelia would arrange for the two to face off in the octagon the following week. The fight wouldn't even last two minutes, with the WoD champion being brought down hard by her rushdown tactics. Such a dominant showing would prove to be devastating to the business arrangement: Seeing her actions, coupled with the vampiress act, as an insult, the CEO would render it void and take her business elsewhere.
Oh well. It wasn't Noeliaa's fault that the greatest Weapon of Destruction couldn't keep up with her.
The videos captured on the audience's cell phones, uploaded under some variation of "Nightclub Owner Beats MMA Champion" or "MMA Champion Beaten By Vampire", would go viral on YouTube. It would be great for business, drawing in other fighters to come and challenge her. Some just for the fight, and many others in the hopes of winning a date and/or a night in bed. The competition would grow more and more stiff as the club's -- and Noelia's -- renown grew. Seeing a prime opportunity to capitalize on this, the latter would be offered to anyone who could defeat her, along with a cash prize.
Noelia would call it the "Primal Challenge".
These fighters would also be free to fight amongst themselves in the octagon, being paid well for the entertainment they provided in WoD's stead. It was through these two avenues that Salma would meet with the individuals who would go on to be big players in the writing of the next chapter of her life:
First was Odette. Or Odile as she sometimes called herself. A mysterious woman from Russia who was there for the money, but wasn't seeking the big prize for some reason. After her first fight, she became a regular.
Odile was almost always the one to step inside the octagon. Outside of settling the occasional dispute, Odette was happy to stick to the dance floor. Whoever the original was had really gone through it, being unable to recall their childhood, with even a good portion of their adulthood being wiped from memory. And they genuinely believed that they were two different people. Sisters.
After they became friends, The Primal became more of a central location that both "sisters" used to find themselves. Salma made it a point for their drinks to always be on the house.
Odile would be another popular name in the club, second only to Noelia herself. It made for good motivation: Neither "sister" had ever lost, in fact walking away from most fights with few to no scratches on her. And it never took her long. Not very surprising, given the way she fights. Neither Odile nor Odette would ever let on about anything, but Salma had suspected Spetsnaz training. Or something in regards to an off-the-books special forces unit. Either way, it was a standard to meet, and a target to beat.
And indeed, Noelia would prove to be superior, if only because she had the better record against two particular fighters that both would meet:
First off was Phoebe Knox, who was known professionally as Lucinda Kane. Lucinda was an absolute beast. A martial arts prodigy who had been trained in Tae Kwon Do, Boxing, the original Japanese as well as Brazilian forms of Jiu Jitsu. And she knew her way around a pair of tonfas as well. Their third fight made for the first time Noelia used weapons in a match: She decided to put her broadsword training to the test -- blunt steel practice swords. All three bouts would be the sort that every good fighter dreams of. The sort that pushed her to the very edge of her abilities and beyond. Made her feel like she was in a movie. The action heroine in the midst of the final battle. And all three bouts would end the same, with both her and Lucinda being too banged up and exhausted to stand after forty-six minutes of war. Then an hour. And then an hour and sixteen minutes.
Odile? She'd get some good shots in during her fight against Lucinda. Even managed to paralyze her right arm with a hard knock to one of her pressure points. It would take a month for Lucinda to be able to use it again. It was her punishment for dismissing Odile's God Hand techniques as "quack fu". Lucinda would still win the fight, but she learned to never diss her style again.
Lucinda would befriend both of them afterwards, forming a bond over their shared love of martial arts, the Goth subculture, and vampire fiction. Of the tabletop RPG known as "Vampire: The Masquerade", in particular.
The second was Haqikah Gustav Reinhardt, "The Slaying Mantis". A living legend who had been in the game ever since she was eighteen, fighting in hundreds of bouts all across the world in several different promotions: Gladiator MMA. Queen of the Cage. Legacy Fighting Championship. And in what was recent times then, she'd made a successful transition to erotic MMA when she joined Passionforce.
Salma, being a huge fan, had followed Haqikah's career closely. And needless to say, the cagefighting veteran would receive VIP treatment during her visits to the club. The first would see her answering the Primal Challenge with a bout that was to be conducted under Passionforce rules (see Specialty Matches), offering Noelia double the prize money as well as herself as a Prisoner of War if she were to be beaten, figuring that upping the stakes would make the possibility of public sex an easier pill to swallow.
It worked. After a shift to the Classic ruleset -- which was Noelia's suggestion -- they had a deal.
Noelia refused to even do so much as tap out in her own club, let alone get down on her knees and surrender. And so, after a long forty-nine minutes, she would finally lose by knockout. But her skill had impressed Haqikah, who wanted to wait until she was healed instead of taking her right there when she awoke.
She would do the same with Lucinda after a week later, and the lesbian Casanova would talk the two into meeting up with her at her penthouse suite for a ménage a trois. It would up turning into a handicap match of the best kind...and they'd still "lose".
They'd meet up to do it again every so often when circumstances allowed it, up until things got more serious between Haqikah and Phoebe. A surprise, given how much of a player the former turned out to be.

Part 2
It would only last all of six months, however. Turns out that when she isn't being a female Casanova, she's being your garden variety insecure girlfriend. It was disappointing to see, and it was exactly why they broke up. Not even Amirah, Haqikah's best friend, was able to take her side when it was all said and done.
It was Haqikah's first time being dumped, and she didn't take it well. Countless text messages, voice mails, a public blow up after showing up to see a show that Lucinda was competing in after having made the switch to professional wrestling...That almost got her and Olga a permanent ban from ACW shows right along with her.
All of it was a perfect reminder of why Salma stuck to the single life after breaking up with her last girlfriend, who reacted very similarly when told that she wasn't ready to tie the knot after only one year together.
After learning that The Coterie -- a highly successful stable that Lucinda was a member of -- was LAW-bound, Haqikah would even go so far as to invent a vampire gimmick of her own in order to strike into the professional wrestling business: That of an ancient noble named Astarte, who once ruled over a land that's now known as the Valley of the Dead. And she would gather up five others with the intention of one night facing off against The Coterie.
Amirah, whose ring name would be Anat. Or Kek/Kauket -- either or, or all of them, it didn't matter that much to her. Robin Estefania Murillo Acosta, a friend of theirs from the world of professional wrestling, would lend her hand as well. Bloody Robin came pre-packaged with a White Wolf-themed vampire gimmick of her own, being a Gangrel-esque deathmatch luchadora. And there would also be Snegurka/Winter, who would maintain their aliases of Odette/Odile, respectively. Salma herself would do the same with Noelia Carnicero Cortez, and after leaving the LFC, Olga would join them as Nuria Carnicero Salazar.
The sisters had some fun working out how their characters would be connected; simply having them be sisters as well would be a boring set-up.
Instead, Nuria would be a "living" ancestor of Noelia's, a former vampire hunter who took to Carthage in a bid to restore honor to the Carnicero name. She did much to disrupt the peace that was forming between vampires and humans, taking it as an attempt by the former to trick the latter into a state of willing subjugation and victimhood. The war that followed would see her forces taking great losses, driving her further and further into desperation. Astarte would approach her at her lowest point, offering her the power to eradicate every last vampire in the Third City. But it would come at a potential cost: Nuria had to resist the urge to feed for three days. If she failed, she would be Astarte's thrall for the rest of her existence.
The newly Embraced Nuria would take part in another charge against her now fellow undead, leading to a glorious battle that would see all of Carthage's Kindred wiped out as promised. She would pass out from the exertion, and a group of her fellow hunters, while moving her to safety, would discover what she had become. But her husband, their leader, would swear them to secrecy. And, believing that he was helping, would open a wound on his wrist and let the blood flow into her open mouth...
And so Astarte's "Black Hand" was born.
Much later, in the mid-to-late 1700's to early 1800's (they couldn't decide on exact dates), a mortal Noelia would be continuing the work that Nuria began. Only in Spain, instead of Carthage. The Carnicero name had been restored to prominence, being unknowingly used by Astarte to eradicate her enemies among the Kindred and advance her interests. Noelia was quite the talented pawn, knew said talent too well, and was all too eager to apply it, making her easy to manipulate. Both by shadowy masterminds as well as shadowy malefactors.
Noelia would almost be killed by one of the latter while pursuing what was believed to be a strong lead in the direction of an Elder that was responsible for the disappearances of a few key members of a magic-focused sect. She would be left lying on his wooden mansion floor, her life draining rapidly out of a mortal wound. Nuria, who had been having her watched closely, was forced to show herself. This was not the way that she was meant to die.
After disposing of Noelia's would-be murderer, Nuria would take her helpless descendant into her arms, bare her fangs, and...
When the blood settled, it changed Nuria in a way that necessitated pulling her away from such a visible place amongst the humans. It ran cold through her veins, making her dispassionate, with a personality of Antarctic ice. Even with her fondest memories brought to the forefront of her mind, she couldn't warm it enough to be able to at least pretend to be emotional when appropriate. But it made her a straight shooter, with her abilities being well-suited to that of an enforcer. A Sheriff, if you will.
Noelia, on the other hand, retained much of her humanity, and with it, her original personality. The Black Myriad is to be a faction in which its members indulge their baser instincts more than...others...and Noelia herself is no exception. But a shorter leash on the Beast has it has its uses.
Like allowing Salma to avoid having her club get shut down for acting too much like a murderous monster, for one.
All six members had a look and a gimmick ready. All were trained extensively in their fields, with more done along with and amongst each other in privately owned gyms in order to get used to working as a unit. Goals were set: Astarte would go after the Middleweight title. Odette/Odile would handle the Lightweight division. Robin would take the Heavyweights, the Carniceros would team up, and...
Hentai. That got messy after it was discovered that LAW only allowed cis-gendered women to challenge for that title, as well as all the others. Amirah, who was selected for that, happened to be intersexed. And with those same barriers also being in place in regards to entry to many events and tournaments, she would be forcibly resigned to accomplishing very little for the group, if anything at all. Because of this, she debated sticking to a managerial role or just not joining them outright.
Both Salma and Haqikah had come up with the same alternative seconds later in that conversation: Walking alongside them as a full-time competitor as originally planned, and beating the shit out of every cis-gendered woman they put in the ring with her until the bigots in charge had no choice but to acknowledge her worth as a competitor. Haqikah would even abandon her original goal of the Middle and Openweight titles to give Anat the chance to make history in LAW, setting her sights on the Hentai title instead.
With the others backing them up, Amirah would be convinced. Although she was hesitant, still.
But overall, The Black Myriad felt ready. Only two of them had experience in professional wrestling in its purest forms -- Anat and Bloody Robin -- but they intended to show the world that martial artists could not only hang, but thrive.
And of course, to have fun roleplaying a group of vampires who sat on the darker side of the scale of morality, which was everyone's primary goal starting out (aside from Haqikah)...
It was Haqikah's first time being dumped, and she didn't take it well. Countless text messages, voice mails, a public blow up after showing up to see a show that Lucinda was competing in after having made the switch to professional wrestling...That almost got her and Olga a permanent ban from ACW shows right along with her.

Strategy:
Spoiler
Noelia is much more a Mixed Martial Artist than she is a professional wrestler, bringing to the ring a combination of Dutch-style Kickboxing and Hapkido (in which she is a 3rd Dan black belt). She approaches her matches with pressure tactics and relentless aggression, loosing lightning fast combinations from the moment the bell rings to take firm control of the pace and often springing back onto her feet to get right back to it in the event that the opponent manages to down her. She'll couple this with the throws, trips, holds, joint locks, and various maneuvers that Hapkido is known for. She's swift, possessing a decent amount of muscle behind her blows as well as the ability to switch hit, being ambidextrous. And she is brutal as well, with no compunctions about fighting dirty. More often than not, Noelia will treat the match like a fight in the streets, and as such, she'll hunt for knockouts and submissions more than pinfalls even in Standard matches.
And like her sister, Salma has undergone weapons training as well. To an extent that's lesser, but more applicable to professional wrestling, being the most skilled with batons and broadswords, the latter of which she uses in blunted form when competing in hardcore matches, typically dual-wielded.

Fight Club Match
The Fight Club match takes place at the of The Primal, Salma owns. Since it's her house, she always gets to set the rules. She typically goes with an old school UFC standard. That is to say, no disqualifications (with the exception of a refusal to reset after a tap out penalty), time limits, or pinfalls -- the MMA standard of knockout or submission. If she wants to make it a sexual affair, she'll add a few extra touches:
Firstly, getting knocked down/thrown/slammed three times will incur the penalty of taking off an article of clothing, as is done in Global Frontier Erotic Martial-Arts Wrestling. Secondly, submissions work differently: Tapping out doesn't end the fight. Instead, as is done in Passionforce, it requires you to sexually satisfy your opponent orally, after which the fighters will be separated and allowed one minute's rest before the fight is resumed. In order to properly submit, one has to kneel before their opponent and vocally state their forfeiture.
Also, there will be music playing through the speakers at all times. Salma likes to kick ass to a soundtrack.

Primal Style Hentai Match
A Primal Style Hentai match is a no disqualification contest that requires the scoring of four falls (which count anywhere): An orgasm, whether it is the opponent's or one's own, followed by a pinfall or submission, followed by the type of orgasm that wasn't scored before, and finally, a knockout.
Primal Supremacy Match
A Primal Supremacy match, like Primal Style Hentai, is a no disqualification contest where falls count anywhere. But a Primal Supremacy match requires competitors to score six falls: Either humiliation or an orgasm, be it the opponent's or one's own in the case of the latter, followed by a pinfall or submission, followed by one of whatever wasn't done in regards to humiliation or orgasms, followed by the same in regards to a pinfall or submission, the last of either humiliation or orgasm, and finally, the knockout.
If the physicality proves to be too daunting for a competitor, they can forfeit, in which case they'll be subject to Loser Gets Fucked or Prisoner of War rules. Also, a knockout scored before the last fall will incur the same penalty.

GFEMW (Global Frontier Erotic Martial-Arts Wrestling) Rules Match
Named after the famous Hentai wrestling company. A match with Global Frontier Erotic Martial-Arts Wrestling rules will be conducted as follows:
- The only ways to win are via Knockout, Vocal Submission, Orgasm during a pinfall penalty period or tap out submission penalty, or Disqualification.
- After suffering three knockdowns, throws, and/or slams, a competitor will be required to remove an article of clothing. No further penalties will be occurred once said competitor is nude.
- Three count pinfalls are still in place, incurring a penalty period ala the Resistencia Erotica rules featured in Lucha Libre Erotica: A set length of time where the pinned is prohibited from resisting the sexual ministrations of the one who pinned them.
- Competitors are allowed to tap out in order to be released from a hold. But in doing so, they are required to satisfy their opponent in any way they please until they reach climax, upon which both competitors are allowed one minute's rest.
- Rope breaks are in effect, but competitors are allowed only three to escape a submission hold penalty-free. After these three rope breaks are expended, any future rope breaks taken to escape a submission hold will be penalized in the same manner as if the competitor in question had tapped out. Rope breaks taken to break pinfalls are not penalized.
There is also an option to compete under the old school Pure Rules, which are effectively the same as the regular rules, but with some changes:
- Competitors are prohibited from leaving the ring. Doing so is grounds for an immediate disqualification unless they are thrown or knocked to the outside. Those who end up on the outside this way are given until the count of ten to re-enter the ring.
- Five rope breaks are allowed instead of three for breaking submissions. But taking a rope break after the first five have been expended will be looked at the same as a vocal submission.
- Only five rope breaks are allowed for breaking pinfalls, which are counted separately from those used to break submission holds. After expending these five breaks, any future pinfall breaks will be penalized in the same manner as a submission break penalty in FGEMW's current rules.
- Vocal submissions incur a Prisoner of War penalty for one night, or for however long a period the competitors agree to.

Passionforce Rules Match
Named after the premier Erotic Mixed Martial Arts promotion. A match with the Passionforce ruleset will be conducted as follows:
- The match is to be held inside an MMA octagon.
- It will be contested within 4-6 five minute rounds, with one minute of rest in between rounds.
- The only means of victory are via Knockout, Submission, using the opponent to bring oneself to Orgasm, or Disqualification.
- Submissions work differently in Passionforce: Tapping out doesn't count, initially. Instead, that will force the release of the hold, but the competitor who tapped out will be required to service their opponent orally until they reach orgasm, at which point the fighters will be sent to their corners for a minute's rest before the round continues as normal. In order to properly submit, a competitor must kneel before their opponent and vocally state their forfeiture of the bout. Prisoner of War rules will then be in effect.
Competitors are allowed a maximum of three times to tap out. The third incident will be viewed the same as a Vocal Submission.
- Loser Gets Fucked rules will be in effect for losses via Knockout or Disqualification. Competitors who have been knocked out will be revived before the victor can claim their prize. Prisoner of War rules will be in effect in instances of a loss via being used to give the victor an Orgasm.
The fighters may also choose to compete under the Classic ruleset. Under the Classic ruleset, the fight will have no disqualifications, with the one and only exception of a refusal to reset after a tap out penalty. There will also be no rounds, with the fight continuing until someone emerges victorious.

Signature and Finishing Moves
Signature Moves (Miscellaneous)
Mach Punch Rush
Is usually performed in the corner or against the ropes.
Stompout
Noelia treats her matches in a similar manner to a street fight that started because you owe her money. If you go down, you better get up quick. Otherwise, she'll keep kicking and stomping until you either manage to break away, the ref's count gets too close to five, or you go to sleep.
Back Roll Headlock
Leg-Assisted Armbar
Fireman's Throw
One of her go-to's to lead into a good Stompout.
Unnamed Brutality
Is performed in the corner.
Parry
Arm Lock
Armbreaker and Knee
Hyperextension and Shoulder Lock Throw
Shoulder Lock Toss
]
Retreating Drill
For when the opponent manages some pushback.
Desert Eagle/Payback/Hand Cannon
Can be fired out after taking a hit, in which case she'll put a little more mustard into it. This is when the punch becomes Payback, a Finishing Move.
Desert Eagle can also be combined with a parry, in which case she'll put an even greater deal of force into the blow, turning the punch into the Hand Cannon, a Critical Finishing Move.
Dance Macabre
Ring of Pain
Crimson Tsunami
Brain Blaster Combination/Blood's Might
A favorite combination of Noelia's from her MMA days. She's also come up with a more devastating variation to bust out in LAW. One that has Finishing Move level strength.
Pin n' Maul
Hunter's Prowess
Pretty much this, but with alterations to account for blows delivered with a blunted broadsword.
Signature Moves (Reversals and Counters)
Spoiler

Finishing Moves

She tends to segue into one to surprise an opponent who catches one of her kicks.
Arm Capture Headlock
The Obliterator
Double Tap
Celerityplex
Wheel of Death
Just without the decapitation.
Cutdown
Critical Finishing Moves
Full Arsenal
The opponent doesn't float in the air, and the knockback isn't so dramatic, but you get the gist. Has a second variant that brings kicks into the mix.
Finishing with a devastating roundhouse to the head.
And a third for when she's using her dulled swords...
Which is delivered with more hits than what's shown in the video and finishes with a Cutdown.
