CHARACTER INFORMATION
Disposition/Alignment: Heel
Gimmick: Once considered one of OWA’s most beloved figures, Diantha’s become one of its most hated in just a few months. While away with injury she watched as Odyssey seemed to move on without her and felt as not only fans but the company itself turned their backs to her. Now, armed with both the ATTH Briefcase and an ally that she had been training in secret, Diantha is on a quest to not only reclaim what she feels is her rightful place at the top of Odyssey but also rebuild the entire company in her image. The Undisputed World Championship is no longer a prize but a tool with which she intends to pry every last drop of power she can for her own purposes. Anyone who doesn’t agree with her vision for Odyssey is a target subject to elimination. She is blunt and cold to those she has no interest in, only speaking to or engaging them when it’s deemed necessary or to make an unfortunate example out of. Despite all of this, Diantha still has sympathy for those trying to grow as wrestlers…and a respect for wrestling rules and traditions.
Diantha’s Bodyguard: Esmeralda
Pic Base: Janai Kai
Height: 6’1’’

Not much is known about this young woman except her connection to Diantha. What we do know is that she was once connected to Wolvesden somehow before Diantha eventually defected from them and took Esmeralda with her. After that, Diantha had her trained in secret under the care of former Carlos Rosso protege MAELSTROM. A capable fighter that has practiced Savate, Muay Thai and Tae Kwon Do, Esmeralda is Diantha’s hand-picked successor and personal bodyguard as she goes about her plans to seize control of Odyssey. She is extremely quiet, bordering on mute. The only time the woman is known to speak at all is when speaking directly to Diantha. This martial artist is essential to Diantha's plans for Odyssey and anyone looking to stop DIantha will inevitably cross paths with this towering fighter.
RINGSIDE INFORMATION
Entrance Theme: "Kick Start" By K Force
MOTIVATIONS
What are your character’s motivations for competing?: Conquest. Feeling slighted by both OWA and its fans for her perceived lack of appreciation for her work, Diantha has concluded that the only punishment for this injustice is to completely destroy the brand and rebuild it as she sees fit. In her vision this new Odyssey will not only see her ruling from the top but surrounded by like-minded wrestlers who feel like their work has also been underappreciated. Once her takeover of Odyssey is complete, Diantha has her sights set on seizing control of OWA completely by claiming the World Tag Team Championships and the remaining World Championships once her conquest of Odyssey is complete.
Tendency to Cheat: Completely random. There may be some situations where Diantha WANTS to inflict extra punishment or simply see what referees will allow her to get away with before getting disqualified. Other times she may play by the rules just to “handicap” herself a bit. Her willingness to bend or break rules relies more on her opponents and the situation than her own belief.

Not sure if it was internal or not, but it says "Still thirsty for revenge against Azumi for what she saw as an unforgivable betrayal, Azumi now councils and trains Diantha in preparation for her title challenge." Shouldn't it "Still thirsty for revenge against Azumi for what she saw as an unforgivable betrayal, Erica now councils and trains Diantha in preparation for her title challenge."
