Speech patterns=When outside of the wrestling ring, Esperanza speaks in a soft, demure voice. When in the ring, her voice becomes loud, boisterous, and energetic.

Relationships=Esperanza is often looked down upon by her fellow nuns for seemingly little things: maybe her veil’s crooked, or maybe she was too loud during prayer, or maybe she said the wrong thing without meaning to. Esperanza is used to the treatment, and keeps to herself most of the time. Esperanza loves the orphans she and the other nuns care for, and takes great care to get to know each of them personally. The orphans are what Esperanza considers her entire reason for being, and she’s devoted to giving them a better life.

Hates=Selfish people, pride, vanity, those who only fight for themselves, being objectified

Wrestling style=Sor Halcón is a a high flying, showboating wrestler who is always on the move. She is very acrobatic, capable of incorporating plenty of flips, kicks, and rolls into her wrestling style. Sor Halcón’s signature move is a standing crucifix submission hold: she launches herself off the top rope and lands on the standing opponent, quickly wrapping around them and performing the submission hold.

Behavior=Esperanza is a selfless, deeply devoted catholic nun. She believes in performing good deeds for the sake of being good, and always strives to be a good example for the orphans she cares for. She is always doting on the orphans, and makes frequent trips to town to spread the gospel and help people. Esperanza truly believes that her wrestling career is what God wants from her, despite fighting being forbidden in the monastery. When performing as Sor Halcón, Esperanza’s personality flips: she knows that in order for the venues to make money for her to earn, there needs to be people watching. And in order for people to watch, she has to be interesting. So Sor Halcón plays up her matches for the crowd: grand gestures and flashy moves, loud catchphrases and plenty of flirtatious winking.

Sexual behavior=Inexperienced and a virgin. Because of her vow of chastity, Esperanza shows no desire for a sexual or romantic relationship. Secretly, however, Esperanza is a repressed bisexual woman with an attraction to women as well as men. Esperanza will reject all sexual advances, regardless of whether it’s from a man or a woman.

Setting=Early 1980’s Oaxaca, Mexico; Technology only available in the late 70’s and early 80’s exists.

Backstory=When Esperanza was a child, she and her big brother Antonio were avid fans of Lucha Libre wrestling, and would watch it on the tv for hours. Both wanted to become wrestlers when they grew up, but when Esperanza was twelve...Antonio grew sick and died. After the funeral, Esperanza’s parents made the decision that their daughter would become a nun, and so that’s exactly what she did. Though despite taking up the cloth and becoming a devout Catholic, Esperanza’s love for wrestling continued to develop in secret. She would eventually join a monastery that also served as an orphanage, and she would immediately fall in love with her work. She cares deeply for the orphans under her care, and enjoys cooking for them, teaching them, playing with them, and preaching to them. However, there was always one problem: the monastery was always low on funding, meaning Esperanza couldn’t buy quality ingredients to use for food for the children, nor could she get them good textbooks for school; it was also hard to afford new clothes for the children as they grew, as well as maintaining a general upkeep of the monastery. Realizing that the monastery was in desperate need of funds, Esperanza made an impulsive decision: to become a luchadora wrestler, despite fighting being forbidden by the monastery. Esperanza knows that if she was ever discovered, it would make her lose everything, but she decided it was worth the risk. Esperanza designed her own costume and named herself “Sor Halcón.” Starting at the very bottom, Esperanza has been slowly making a name for herself as a wrestler; she isn’t winning every match, but even the losers still get paid. All of Esperanza’s earnings go to the monastery under the guise of “anonymous donations,” which she then uses to afford better ingredients for cooking, new clothes for the orphans, new textbooks, new bibles, et cetera. Esperanza is slowly starting to make her way up to higher venues; at first wrestling in front of a small dozen people, then a couple dozen, and now around a hundred.

Other=Esperanza would only be okay with entering a romantic relationship should it be taken slow and only if she feels like her boundaries are respected. Esperanza IS NOT interested in sex and will reject all sexual advances. Esperanza takes her vows of chastity very seriously and is extremely uncomfortable with the idea of breaking them. Esperanza is uncomfortable over the thought of being sexualized and would only accept a wholesome, slowly paced relationship that is Godly in nature. Esperanza would be especially hesitant entering a relationship with a woman, but could be convinced should the woman be respectful towards her boundaries.
