Gimmick Description: The Scorpion is a dangerous, brilliant, misanthropic loner with a God complex. He is incredibly intelligent, fluent in several language and possessing a genius level IQ of 182. He has a fondness for Latin, as he considers it "intellectually superior" to speak a language few can understand. He is perhaps most well known for his incredibly devout and stringent religious beliefs, with a clear misanthropic complex and an intense desire to "return to the world to paradise". The Scorpion apparently supports the theological idea of apoctastasis, the belief that God will restore the universe to its pure form of paradise by reconciling good and evil after the apocalypse. As a result of this ideology, The Scorpion believes it is a mission from god to eliminate human beings, the ultimate source of sin, so that the reconciliation may come faster and the world will thus not have to suffer as long. This support had led to an ultra-fanatical mindset, as his faith literally dominates his entire existence. As a result, The Scorpion has been known to exhibit such characteristics as self-flagellation after perceived poor performances, clear mental instability, and at times seemingly suicidal tendencies. The reason for his ring name of Scorpion ties into this mindset as well, as it is meant to connect to the potency of scorpion venom as a means to kill prey.
Wrestling Style: Hybrid of martial arts and power moves, with a strong reliance on stiff strikes and suplexes.
Wrestling Attire: Black martial arts pants, black open fingered fighting gloves, black boots (no shirt)
Entrance:
----------------
The lights in the arena go out and "The Human Stain" by Kamelot begins to play over the speakers. The darkness is cut off when two spotlights shine on the left portion of the stage, uniting at a specific point. With the lights shining, The Scorpion rises from the stage while kneeling in prayer as the song continues to play throughout the arena.
Once through the stage, The Scorpion opens his eyes and slowly walks to the ring without so much as glancing at the crowd. Once in the ring, he proceeds straight to a neutral corner and kneels once again, as if mentally preparing himself for what is ahead of him. After another quick prayer, he quickly throws off his trench coat and simply gazes into space.

Biography:
----------------
Little is known of the enigma called The Scorpion. Apparently ravaged by memories and hardships of his past, the young fighter relishes in darkness and isolation. The Scorpion will never willingly initiate human contact because of a deep seeded trust issue and is also prone to violent tendencies if approached. It is also unknown how he came to acquire his amazingly high level of intelligence. His apparent lone goal in life is fulfillment of a bizarre religious ideology called apoctastasis. Apoctastasis refers to the belief that after the Apocalypse, God will reconcile good and evil and revert existence back to its initial paradisaical form. When this ideology combines with his past, The Scorpion becomes an extreme misanthrope, hating humanity and the human form due to his perception that human beings are the ultimate embodiments of sinful natures. As a result, there is no limit to what The Scorpion will do to himself or his opponents in order to succeed. Mercy is unheard of from The Scorpion and he seemingly anticipates the same from all adversaries. How he became involved in wrestling is, like almost everything else about him, a complete mystery.
