Character Info
Name: Harakiri
Height: 6’0”
Weight: 240lbs
Hometown: San Diego, CA
Alignment: Harakiri (-5), Essex (-2)
Entrance Music: Imagine Dragons - Radioactive
Entrance Description:
“The arena lights slowly dim as a soft melody begins to play. Just as the base kicks in, the backstage curtain flies open and the Cheshire smile of Jamie Essex can be seen amidst the strobe like camera flashes. He’s followed closely by his masked monster and the two make their way slowly down toward the ring when Harakiri brushes Essex out of the way and quickly slides into the ring beneath the bottom rope. Essex takes his place outside the ring while Harakiri simply stands in the center of the ring, head cocked to the side quizzically and waiting for the start of the match.”
Physical Appearance: Average height and build; while not a massive monster, he’s built like a true athlete should. His body suit is form fitting but moves with him, allowing him complete range of motion.
Ring Attire: Blue body suit with black accents, black wrestling boots covered in blue kickpads up into kneepads which match his gloves and elbow pads. He wears a mask that completely obscures his head/face and has a skull printed on the face.
Gimmick: Silent and unstoppable
Personality: James ‘Jamie’ Essex is equal parts loathsome bastard and charmingly eccentric. Hailing from Liverpool, England he’ll win you over one minute with his James Bond swagger, and make you want to throw up in your mouth the next.
Strengths:
1. Has worked around the world in both small and large companies and, therefore, has acquired a large repertoire of technical skills that make him a formidable and adaptable opponent.
2. Will never tap out; quit is not in his vocabulary; Essex on the other hand …
3. No compassion for opponents therefore will not pull punches
Weaknesses:
1. Needs to use Essex as a mouthpiece
2. Mask can limit vision somewhat
3. Prone to snapping, making it hard for Essex to control him
Biography:
‘It isn’t about who has the most guns, it’s about how you use the ones you’ve got!’ There isn’t much in Jamie Essex’s arsenal, but the one weapon he does have more than makes up for it. Very little is known about the man beneath the hood, partly because he doesn’t speak, but more so that even if he did he wouldn’t be able to get a word in edgewise. Essex is everything that Harakiri isn’t; dynamic and social he has a penitent for the spotlight that borders on narcissistic. Like modern day gypsies, roaming from company to company, wherever they’ve landed has had one thing in common … strife. Companies on the edge seem to call out to Essex who shows up with on offer, equal to both sides. For the right price, Harakiri will fight for you … ignore the offer and there’s a good chance he’ll be fighting against you, an error quickly realized.
