http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4SSDXFB_90A study in the life of a person who has lost literally everything, Selena Marquez was born to a very wealthy family in Spain, although a certain incident lead to her small family losing everything they had to their name. Her mother died in childbirth of her younger brother, who also died under mysterious circumstances mere hours after being born. Her father, rather than living in destitution, and despite still having a young child to care for, ended his own life, leaving young Selena, only 8 years old, all alone. She drifted from foster home to state institution until the age of 14, when she ran away and joind a wrestling promotion touring Europe. In short time, she developed world-class skills and fought any who thought they could take her in bouts for money.
A weird twist of fate when she was 20 brought her to America when she learned of a surviving uncle who had moved there shortly before she was born. Her uncle was gainfully employed and had offered to take her in and try to get her a job working where he worked. The job didn't work out as she had hardly the social skills required, and the family reunion was short lived, as her uncle was killed in a tragic auto accident. Selena Marquez was once again alone. Her uncle's home foreclosed, she faced the streets once again, until a person who had been a fan of hers in her touring days recognized her and revealed they were a talent scout for a famous wrestling promotion. Knowing what she was capable of, this person offered her a chance at a career in that promotion. She gladly accepted, but things went south quickly when it became apparent to all involved that she wouldn't play the character they wanted her to play. Dejected, she left the promotion.
Mere days after she left that promotion, a friend from her days touring Europe caught up with her and suggested she try a new promotion that was rapidly becoming the hot ticket for female athletes, Rival Angels. She tried out and was accepted. Demonstrating skill and tenacity few others seemed to posess, she was able to bypass developmental altogether; her friend, however, was not so lucky. After a few months, her friend was finally called up, and by this time, Selena Marquez had built a new life for herself. She was famous again and making money, and didn't want to jeopardize it right away, but remembering the debt she owed her friend, decided to take her on as a tag team partner. This alliance would prove short-lived, however, as her friend revealed one night her treachery, that she was only using Selena to get into the pro ranks and make a name for herself. Her now ex-friend turned on her during a very important match in both womens' careers on national television, assaulting her in such a way that would leave her a bloody mess.
The thousand misfortunes visited upon her in such a short time have lead her to contemplate suicide on more than one occasion, and when she's not thinking about that, she's always on the lookout for treachery where none exists at all. As such, she disdains tag team competition, prefering to fight handicap matches, even going so far as to assault her proposed partner before the match so she won't have to deal with the consequences. After all, in 26 short years, Selena Marquez has learned all too well the price for trusting people.
And I think I may have topped myself...
