Re: Help making a Jobber

by Tatyina Thu May 16, 2013 4:16 pm

It means when you try and perform a wrestling move and fail in such a way thatis usually pretty obvious that you messed up.

You don't NEED an elaborate backstory. It's what you DO with the character that makes her what she is. She could be someone who doesn't train or just isn't very good at wrestling but has a strong passion for it. Maybe she accidentally or purposefully puts herself up against strogner/more experienced wrestlers and is constantly way in over her head.

Maybe she's just not very bright and can't take to wrestling or maybe she thinks she's the best and her overconfidence gets her in trouble.

There are lots of ways to play a jobber and no way is the right way. Whether you want to have some tragic reason for her to enter the wrestling ring, some elaborate and circuitous backstory, or just having her be a fan who thinks she's good enough to go pro is also fine but will only be important once you flesh her out as a person. Let the backstory come to the character, rather than starting with a history and going from there.

Thanks for the advice for that Tatty but I am just asking for help and suggestions to use, that is all.

Just getting ideas before I decide on what to use for her.

Really? Did you have to go there? True Sin has done a fair share of botches but that was becasue he was not used to WWE's style.
So what did they do? Put him in a tag team with Rey. But like it or not Sin Cara has this really good theme.

I look forward to what you'll pull out the hat with this one Cybeast <img src=
