Lucha Libre Banditry: Bandita is an electrifying ball of energy, and high mobility is the name of the game. She's a luchadora through and through, and that means high-flying aerial maneuvers and sharp technical savvy. Where Bandita really distinguishes herself is her evasive finesse, adaptability, and slick slipstream offense.
Signature Moves:
-La Desperada: A smooth tumble over her rival, wherein she hooks their midsection while falling behind their back to suddenly slam them down to the mat between her legs. Can be used while running at an opponent, leaping at them, or countering out of a powerbomb lift. (See: Manami Roll)
-Látigo Bandolera: With her opponent directly behind her, Bandita snags their head over her shoulder and usually rushes for a turnbuckle to hurriedly scale it and flip over behind them, dragging their head down to slam their skull down against the mat. Though the turnbuckle isn't even necessary! With a strong enough spring and backflip, she can take opponents by surprise from any position in the ring! (See: Sliced Bread)
-Trickshot: Whether rebounding off the ropes or diving from a turnbuckle, Bandita has perfected the whirling heel kick to a punishing level, and capable of snapping it off out of an irish whip to keep opponent's on their toes. Or off their feet. (See: Leaping Wheel Kick)
-Smoke Bomb: Not a directly damaging maneuver that's likely to win a match on its own, but Bandita has perfectly suddenly leaping over opponents to such an artistic degree that it's become a signature move. What makes the Smoke Bomb dangerous is when it isn't just an evasive technique, but one that sets up her opponent to receive immediate retaliation or punishment. Like letting them drive themselves into a turnbuckle or out of the ring.
Finishing Moves:
-Delito Caliente: Bandita rushes, dives, or cartwheels at an opponent and whirls herself beneath their arm, around their shoulders, and hooks their neck to use the insane momentum to drive the top of their head against the mat to devastating, ring-shuddering, and ultimately match-ending effect. (See: Satellite DDT)
-Heist of the Century: With an opponent lying stunned on their back and Bandita perched atop the turnbuckle, the luchadora flies into a corkscrew shooting star press, landing her trim stomach across her opponent's belly with the full force of the insane momentum, gravity of the height, and Bandita's full bodyweight. (See: Black Arrow)
Appearance:
Personality:
Bandita leads two lives, true to any proper luchadora. As Camille Reyes, she's unassuming with a small presence. She's reserved and accustomed to being overlooked. But as Bandita, she commands attention, carries herself boldly, confidently, and feels seen. The Bandita identity comes with a self-esteem boost, and the night and day difference between the somewhat shy Latina as a civilian and the bombastic, zealous Bandita helps keep curious speculators off her trail.
Regardless of whichever persona Camille's in, some things stay consistent. She's kind and considerate, but with a fiery (and distinctly Latin) temper. She cherishes professional wrestling to a fault, is ecstatic to be in the ring, and adores the fans. She's naturally energetic and effervescent, passionate, a bundle of spunky energy and competitive. There's no diluting the spice in this one.
History:
It's long, fam.
It begins in the vibrant city of Cancún, crawling with tourists and entertainment. Mateo Reyes was a street performer; a whipmaster performing tricks and demonstrations. Rosa Flores was a dance instructor, getting by with a small studio. They found each other. They found family. What they didn't find was steady enough money to support themselves and their three children; from eldest to youngest: Camille, Marisol, and Diego. To try to make up for it, the parents taught their eldest everything they could so she could earn money on the side while attending school.
It kind of worked. Kind of. Life was thin, they were scraping by, but they were happy. Camille loved her family deeply, and took eagerly to the whip lessons and dance training; it became a bonding experience between them. But it wasn't until she saw lucha libre for the first time that her passions were truly sparked. And though she was afraid that her parents would steer her away from the violent, full-contact sport, she was delighted to find that they fully supported her.
If that's where Camille's heart lie, they'd do everything they could to support it.
It wasn't until Camille turned fifteen that she could begin training. The bill was considerably more costly than the family was prepared to cover, however, so Camille started working at a country club as a server. This paid well enough to make ends meet, but next to nothing left over after bills. No one complained. They were happy with what they had, and Camille helped at home where she could between work, training, and school.
It took two years before Camille made her professional debut in the ring, at the age of seventeen. But her love and excitement for the moment was undeniable, both to her and to everyone in the stadium - her family included. It didn't matter how much it hurt, how banged up or roughed up she got in that match, she was exactly where she wanted to be. Nothing could erase her smile that evening.
It seemed like Camille's life's path was set. She would continue to heat up the ring, grow in fame, and be set for success. Everything looked like it was going well, and Camille's dedication to the sport was paying off in stunning performances. Her name (that is to say, Bandita) began to circulate as a talent to watch.
It came to an abrupt and unceremonious end one evening. She had a grudge match set, and her parents were absolutely not going to miss it. Unfortunately, their car was struck on the way there, resulting in both Mateo and Rosa's deaths. Camille, Marisol, and Diego were shifted to their grandmother's custody. And though Abuela Lola continued supporting Camille's burgeoning career, there were significantly fewer resources for her siblings. So Camille's focus shifted from her own promotion, her own journey, to wrestling to support her family. Whatever money she made in the ring went to her family.
Just as Camille turned eighteen and became settled into the new cycle of poverty, a booker reached out from overseas. LAW had its eye on her as a young lucha libre star, and offered her a contract. And though her family urged her to take it, she refused - unless they would arrange for her family to come with her. It was tricky, but the representative agreed and found something menial for Lola to do.
It was a rare opportunity. A unique opportunity. A second chance to find the life she'd dreamed of, to chase stardom, while simultaneously keeping her family safe.
Now if only she could speak Japanese.

Fun Facts:
-In-Ring Quirks: Bandita's use of the whip and dancing in the ring are her ways of honoring the parents who always supported her. Plus, it's fun.

-Shake, Shake, Shake, Señora: Thanks to her mother, Camille is an excellent dancer, particularly in salsa, rumba, and samba.
-Devout: Like the rest of her family, Camille is a devoted Catholic. Western Orthodox, to be specific.

-Escuse me?!: If you want an example of Camille's accent when speaking English, look up Salma Hayek. She's trying!
Strong Bonds: Her family fully supports her wrestling career and often watch her either in person at the arena, or at home on the TV.
-La Bonita Bandolera!: Commentators in México first coined her epithet, and it stuck ever since. It basically means "The Pretty Bandit". It does not refer to a shoulder bag.
