I am LOVING your Lucha Retreat posts, Pixie!! 🤩

If The Pit is still open, Ember would love to join the ranks, too! 👀🔥

Ember Mercar is a cocky, good-humored, and bold fighter. She's got a gnarly scar across her left eye, a cheeky grin, and a lot of muscle (don't let those sleeves fool you!) And as an ex-gladiator, she loves showing off for the crowd and getting them hyped up.

Ember is a duelist rogue, so she relies on her speed, athleticism, and unpredictability to get in close, strike fast, and dance around her opponent.

She's also got a lot of heart loves a challenge! Ember is definitely the type of person who’d laugh and give an impressed nod to her opponent when they land a good hit on her. After all, she’s here for the love of the fight!

This is part of the preparations for the upcoming @rookfest and belongs to "Cara de Riva's Antivan Wrestling Retreat" - where you can request a wrestling persona for your Rook (optional) and find others to spar, wrestle and fight with

Welcome to "The Pit", Cara's Lucha Retreat, where Rooks can become professional wrestlers/luchadors for the day or as long as they have fun with it.

I knew I was on the right track, when I saw who is the main inspiration for Ember's character. (from this post) There is going some serious badassery, no bs attitude on with Ember Mercar, and I intend to keep that going with the vibes I get for the wrestling/lucha libre persona.

Persephone

One of the strongest and most badass luchadoras from CMLL, one of the two major promotions in Mexico. She competes worldwide and is known to be a feared powerhouse in the ring.

She relies on her strength and power a lot, which makes her a dangerous opponent, because where she hits, there will be pain!

Her Masks will always match her gear and is known for the particularly unique cut of her leggins.

Her entrance theme might be something that transports her badass attitude. I chose this one as an example of what vibe I think would fit.

My man snuck into a highly secure government facility and stole a fucking plane, without harming a single person, in a single page

And this is while nerfed.

Just curious, but do you have any designs or ideas of Tiramisu/Mochi's mum's old Coven? I know you mentioned that one of them was something of a father figure to Mochi

actually not yet!!!! sometimes i think about young tiramisu and magg-lynn but i never got around to formally designing them...

and youre right there is someone in tiramisus past that is STRONGLY hinted to be mochis dad!! though in the latest version in my head hes actually from (and is still in) the snakes guild. i havent decided what he is to the snake witch yet, either a family member or a close family friend, but either way had obligations to them and couldnt be with tiramisu (but hes the one...tiramisu loved him and still loves him and hence never found another man to marry and raised mochi on her own)

all that is still in beta anyway, but i think it would be neat to have a guy show up from the desert region and has the exact same hair color as mochi

Life Lessons from Laura Wasser, Divorce Lawyer to the Stars — The New Yorker

The so-called disso queen, whose former clients range from Kim Kardashian to Johnny Depp, reflects on the state of our unions.

“A divorce case will take a year, eighteen months. That’s average for a divorce. I have major A.D.D., if it goes on longer than that I start to get, like, C’mon, let’s move this along. It shouldn’t take longer than that, it really shouldn’t. Even with how slow our court system is.”
