Wrestler Name: Sally Talfourd
Nicknames: The Last Magician
Pic Base: Bae Suzy
Hometown: Boryeong, South Chungcheong Province, South Korea
Wrestling Style: Technical/speed. Sally is all about wearing the opponent down and making it look fun! She will pick a spot and work it over in the match to create a weak link. Finally, she uses her assets to her advantage, favourite leg-based offense in her action.
Height: 5’ 11”
Weight: 140lbs
Theme Song: ‘Troublemaker’ by Troublemaker (HyunA and Hyunseung)
Face/Heel/Tweener: Face
Entrance:
A silence comes over the crowd as the lights fade down and everyone finds themselves in darkness. After a moment of nothing, there's the crackling of an old recording, and then a voice:
The LCD screens around the stage begin to flick to life with an old reel of film showing various clips of magicians performing, shots of crowds smiling and laughing, point and wondering. All, of course, in silence.
The LCD screens continue to flicker with the images of an era bygone. The final clip comes to focus on a figure standing alone on a stage, the back to the screen, obscured by the shadows.
There's a pause, and then the beginning of ‘Troublemaker’ by Troublemaker comes across the PA, the whistling cutting through the silence. The crowd reaction is mixed, with cheers and boos coming from different parts of the arena. The screens up the stage area still show the silhouette of a lone person standing in the shadows.
Then, mirroring that shot, purple lights slowly fades in at the top of the ramp, and we find 'The Last Magician' Sally Talfourd with her back to the arena. The crowd gets louder with their reception and then, as the music kicks in Sally turns to face the crowd, her arms outstretched and her head bowed to everyone.
Paige: Ladies and gentlemen, making her way to the ring for her match, 'The Last Magician' .......... Sally Talfourd!
Sally lowers her arms, raises her head, and makes her way down the ramp. Certain sections of the crowd have continued their boos, while a number of fans have rushed to the railings to try and slap hands with Sally. She, however, makes a direct line to the ring, pulling herself up to apron, she looks around to the fans before she steps in, coming through the ropes loosening her wrists. Sally laps the ring as the arena returns to normal, then takes up position across the ring, stretching her legs on the ropes and readying herself for the ring.

Biography: I'll detail this out specifically later. But, to get the feel of Sally (for anyone unfamiliar) here are some other things worth knowing:
Sally's is now somewhat demure; confident in herself and what she believes, but more reserved and reflective in her latest phase. She always tries to see the good in people, even when she knows they're not all that good. This can lead to problems every now and then, but she's not given up that optimistic view of the world.
Strengths:
1. Optimistic and always looking for the good in a situation, fans, whatever
2. Singled-mindedly APW; she's here for the glory (and return of it) of APW!
3. Resilient and not one to back down when there's a good fight to be had
Weaknesses:
1. Easily caught up in a 'moment', especially in a match
2. Age and wear is catching up to her - right shoulder is a known physical weakness, so too her left knee
3. Naive and trusting of people
How did you hear about APW: Everyone knows about APW!
What made you decide to join APW: To help rebuild this awesome place!
