Brief Bio/History:
Prior to her association with one Professor Kurtesy, Sandy was a wrestler who travelled around Mexico and Japan and honed her craft extensively. At first, she was ruthless and competed in some of the most life-threatening matches possible; living a life of "Mayhem" as those in WZCW would colloquially refer. Her efforts and exceptionally-high endurance levels earned her the nickname of "Sandman" as she would win her matches by exhausting her opponents, which in turn would make them prone enough for Sandy to "put them to sleep." As she became more known, she took the moniker and changed her aggression to a more controlled style and slowly associated herself to what the folklore described. Her heavy influence on becoming the Sandman led her to believing she was in fact the actual Sandman and slowly became mentally unstable, inevitably leading to her forced institutionalisation that saw her be taken under the care of the Professor.
After years of sticking by the Professor and making a full recovery (even becoming a doctor in the process), Sandy decided that she was mentally and physically ready for one last run before she becomes too old to wrestle. Whilst she may be known as the "Sandman" by nickname and has the potential to "put her opponent's to sleep" with her finisher, Sandy does not wrestle as recklessly as she once did.

Entrance Description:
Gold lighting brightens up the rampway and the ring whilst a dark blue lighting covers the audience with light blue waves rippling throughout. Sandy emerges from the curtain with a slow 360 degree spin, stopping at the top of the ramp. She reaches into her pouch and blows her golden dust towards the ring before she makes her way down the ring.
(From this point on, it's a generic face entrance by interacting with the crowd and whatnot)
Fighting Style:
Primary - Striker
Secondary - Luchador
Previous Injuries/Character Psyche:
Older Veteran - Although not necessarily an injury/psyche per se, Sandy takes more simplistic approaches to moves and is slow in setting-up/executing moves as well as recovering from bigger moves in her arsenal. She also cannot perform extreme variations of the moves she knows currently nor does she have the ability to make up high-risk moves on-the-fly in fear of hurting herself.
Minor Head Injuries - Sandy has sustained a few concussions during her first major stint and is prone to further head trauma as well as leaving herself exposed in order to protect her head should her opponent target her head.

Sample RP (Unscripted '12 Open Invitational RP)
Footsteps emanating from high heels grow louder and louder within the darkness, indicating that something is approaching closer. Suddenly, the sound of walking stops and becomes replaced by an old, rusty door being pushed open. The door thuds against the wall and a single, solitary light is switched on, flickering bursts of illumination throughout the room. What can be made out is an old locker with a wooden bench placed against a wall, bound by lock and key. The footsteps continue again and a female figure can be seen walking across the room, handling a set of keys to determine which one will unlock the chains. She inserts the key into the padlock and with one click, the security mechanism falls to the ground. She takes a deep breath before slowly opening the locker to reveal...
My old, infamous apparel.
The woman caresses the fabric of the top.
It still feels the same even after all these years... almost a decade in fact.
She notices something in the corner of the locker and picks it up; it appears to be a pouch of some kind.
Almost a decade since the Sandman disappeared from the face of the Earth. Many things have happened from my last days; we've had false prophet after false prophet claiming to be what people see in their nightmares, threatening people to relive them whilst they stay awake; countless villains emerging to cause hatred among the people; and worst of all, the people losing hope and faith... it almost makes me sick...
She clenches the pouch.
And the reason why I have decided to return.
She hangs the pouch around her neck like a necklace.
I understand that the people have someone to look up to in the form of Chris K.O who will stand above all hate and tyranny to provide peace among the community but a man with his shady past cannot be trusted. I still remember the days where he sided with the army of darkness led by the most powerful man to ever spawn nightmares into the minds of the people. I remember a dear friend of mine who dedicated his entire life to stopping this from occurring because the fear consumed him so badly and all K.O could do was watch from the sidelines. I still remember that Chris K.O and despite your change of heart, I want this chance to prove to you and everyone else that if you truly want the adulation of the people for protecting them, you have to truly be dedicated to them. I have always sided with someone who kept his best interest with the people and I followed in his footsteps. Who are you trying to be?
She reaches into the pouch and pulls out some golden dust, rubbing it through her hand.
Just like I use this dust to put those into a deep, safe sleep, I too will put to rest what you stand for Chris. I want to see the passion in your eyes should I be the one to face and I want to know that I can trust you in guarding the people. I want to know that you are different from lying, deceitful men like Constantine who belittle and irk you into joining their side. I want to know that the "The Sandman" can trust the White Knight.
Just make sure you are prepared Chris because Sandy Deserts, the legend of Mexico & Japan... is coming back!
Sandy blows the glitter, covering the screen with nothing but gold.
