List up to three strengths of your character:
1. Cunning - They didn't call him "Cunning" Kliff Ulysses for nothing. His sharp mind has more than made up for his only brief experience as a wrestler. He is a master of picking his spots in and out of the ring and is willing to exercise all manner of pragmatism so he can wear you down physically and mentally. To the point of Cruelty which bore him a second monicker as "Cruel" Ulysses.
2. Tenacity - Not being above the use of unclean combat hasn't made him any kind of slouch. The man is breathing determination. He is utterly driven and will keep going through agony to meet his ends.
3. Head Games - Aside from his tendency for trying to get in the opponent's head most of his attacks center around hitting and wearing down the head physically As well as tiring out the opponent in both manners.
List up to three weaknesses of your character:
1. Frailty - His tragic shortcomings has left his ego fragile, and any perceived failing can drive him to a violent fit.
2. Obsession - In his desperation he has developed obsessive trappings, very fixed on subjects who've accosted him in a White Whale like fashion.
3. Hubris - Kliff is cunning and relentless, but his high strung pride in his ability can be blinding at times. Though it may also be a piece of what keeps him together.
Biography: Kliff Ulysses was a very eager and ambitious young man with a drive and motivation undeniable by all, and only left them wondering what could possibly spur a man like that.
The answer is more true today than it was when his story began: It was loss. An immense sense of loss, of deep personal failure, of crippling amounts of grief. Losing parts of himself and now all that remained was a boy seeking out any form of validation, and sense that he might have gotten better, that he might be ready to be completed.
A broken man wandered where he once stood, now seeking out lost ambitions. Kliff decided to take up two childhood passions to fill one big gape in his heart. He became the frontman for an unsuccessful band, Freeze Police, and a professional wrestler. With varying degrees of success on both fronts he began to feel a semblance of himself again. But the emptiness lingers.
In time the band would dissolve due to personal conflicts between Kliff and the guitarist. And in it's place, Kliff was taken into a new band. Huge. Which as a whole was a much livelier group, but also a more chaotic unit with egos abound that somehow works. And in the wrestling world a constant bane to Kliff's ego exists.
Jon Collins was a man Kliff always looked to and saw the emptiness of his own life, reflecting off the fullness of another's. It made him bitter, resentful, jaded, obsessive. To see a man so happy, and so complete. He yearned for that and sought an avenue to finally achieve his goal. And on that moment where he sought to achieve his dreams, Collins was there and he snuffed them out. This action enveloped Kliff in despair, and lost his drive. Until a man came to him with promises of righteous vindication. And that brings the fallen hero to Exodus. Where he seeks to again pick up his pieces and return home to his happier life.

Entrance Description:
The arena is still for a moment, tension in the air that is broken by a heavily distorted guitar riff sounding out through the arena.
[i][size=4][color=Black]My reflection, dirty mirror
There's no connection to myself
I'm your lover, I'm your zero
I'm the face in your dreams of glass
So save your prayers
For when we're really gonna need'em
Throw out your cares and fly
Wanna go for a ride?[/color][/size][/i]
Kliff steps through the curtain at the final verse, staring out at the crowd for a moment before making a heavy stride towards the ring. An unquestionable intensity in each step forward.
[i][size=4][color=Black]She's the one for me
She's all I really need
Cause she's the one for me[/color][/size][/i]
He rounds to the stairs, flying up the steps with brisk momentum before swinging through the ropes into the corner.
[i][size=4][color=Black]Emptiness is loneliness, and loneliness is cleanliness, and cleanliness is godliness, and god is empty just like me[/color][/size][/i]
He sits in the corner, patiently rocking back and forth as he waited for the match to begin. Eyes fixed forward with intensely heated anticipation.Physical Appearance: Kliff Ulysses
