CHARACTER INFORMATION
Disposition/Alignment:
Pure Babyface

Gimmick: A man of many (figurative and literal) hats, Ethan has been a member of an extraordinary league, the most unlikely world champion of a deathmatch promotion, a conduit for ancient forest Gods, and a retail worker to name the big ones. Through it all he’s carried on trying to be true to himself no matter what has come his way as a man that grew up loving to entertain. It doesn't matter whether it's on his children's edutainment television show or inside the ring. Ethan's a silly goofy (not so) little guy that wants to believe the best of others. It's worth noting that he's also a pacifist at heart, which means that he has never and he will never throw a strike. Even in a wrestling ring. Ethan's wrestling style tends to focus more on trapping his opponents in flash pins (roll-up's) and submission holds that tangle up the opponent (rather than applying pressure or torque to hurt them), and a pinch of comedy.

RINGSIDE INFORMATION
Theme Music: Every Snowflake is Different (Just Like You) by My Chemical Romance

Entrance
The start of the music can mean only one thing, it's time for Ethan Giles and his friends from the Ethan Giles' Super Awesome Magical Explosion Musical Edutainment Show! Robbie The Robot and Waylon The Street Crossing Guard, Ramone The Chipmunk and others burst out from behind the curtain alongside Ethan to the adulation from the children in attendance! This motley crew charms even some of the older fans present when they make their way to the ring in a chaotic parade like formation. Ethan leads his cohorts all the way around the ringside area, making sure to slap hands and hug every single fan that's there. Not satisfied with just the fans, Ethan makes it a point to shake the hands of every single OWA crewmember at ringside too, the cameramen, the photographers, everybody. It's while Ethan is talking to the fans that Buster Bunny organises the rest of Ethan's friends that came out with him to help him hoist Ethan up and plant him on the apron, nearly making Ethan lose his hat in the process! Ethan laughs it off and he leapfrogs over the top rope, rolling through his land to be up on one knee and he throws his hat and arms to his sides with a "Ta da"! Ethan walks up to the referee and he shakes their hand too, making sure they're doing alright. He does a few elementary rolls and stretches in his corner to get ready for the match ahead of him.

MOTIVATIONS
What are your character’s motivations for competing? At a young age Ethan was taken to the circus like a lot of young people, this circus just so happened to include a small traveling troupe of wrestlers. Immediately he was mesmerised and he knew what he wanted to do when he grew up, he wanted to entertain. That's Ethan's entire goal in wrestling, to entertain the audience the most that he possibly can. This ideology by Ethan has been taken to its extremes in the past, for example when happenstance saw him being booked by a deathmatch promotion. Ethan willingly agreed to participate in deathmatches for the promotion, knowing that he would not (due to his own beliefs of pacifism) pick up a weapon himself. He will take extreme risks for his own wellbeing for the sake of making the fans happy.

NOTES:
* Ethan Giles' wrestling style is very much a fusion of old World of Sports style BritWres and Lucha Libre.

* As mentioned above, Ethan Giles is a pacifist. He will not throw a punch or a kick or really any move that would actively hurt his opponent. His strategy in matches is to generally have fun and either catch his opponent off guard or tire them out.

* The Ethan Giles' Super Awesome Magical Explosion Musical Edutainment Show cast generally follows him around wherever he goes during shows, though they are good willed creatures that won't outright interfere on his behalf. They may however intercept a heel attempting to cheat, or try to. Remember, they're a children show's characters. They are going to be silly and comedic.

* The Ethan Giles' Super Awesome Magical Explosion Musical Edutainment Show cast includes Robby The Robot (picbase: Shockwave The Wrestling Robot), Buster Bunny (picbase: Adam Rose's Bunny), Waylon The Cross Guard (picbase: Shane Storm), Ramone The Chipmunk (picbase: CP Munk), Elder Craig (picbase: The Gentlemen's Club Swamp Monster), Fluff The Magic Dragon (picbase: Dragon Dragon), and Rock Balboona (picbase: U.S.Ape). Picbases included for reference points and help visualising them purposes only (not trying to claim all those lol).
