FACTION SORTING
During the Sorting Ceremony, each recruit will undergo trials to determine which faction they are best suited for. The Crucible is divided into four factions:
Nightfall – Led by Chris Night, this faction represents honor, discipline, and the pursuit of excellence through hard work.
The Division – Led by Julian Savell, this faction thrives on chaos and seeks to reshape wrestling in their image. For disruptors and dominant personalities.
Legion – Led by Kiki Masters, this faction is for those who don’t fit the mold. Cold, calculating, and relentless, Legion is home to misfits and outcasts.
The Southie Syndicate – Led by Nathan Callaghan, this faction is for fighters. Brawlers, hardcore enthusiasts, and those who thrive in chaos and brutality.

PERSONALITY & GIMMICK
Zxavier is the self-proclaimed “OutKast,” and he lives up to it. He feels like an outsider even among people who should be closest to him, and that fuels his desire to prove himself. He’s serious, determined, and carries a chip on his shoulder that makes him relentless in the ring.
What makes your character unique?
Zxavier’s internal conflict with his father and mentor gives him an edge. He draws on their influence but is fiercely determined to break free from it. He’s also more grounded and methodical compared to his father’s playful nature.
KNOWN RELATIONSHIPS
Xavier Young (Father), Chris Night (Mentor), and several more from Nightfall gym.
CHARACTER HISTORY/BIO
Zxavier Young grew up in West Hollywood, California, raised mostly by his mother. His father, Xavier Young, a legendary wrestler and head trainer at Nightfall, was rarely around, focusing more on his career and the trainees under his wing than his own son. As a result, Zxavier felt disconnected from his father and the wrestling world that seemed to consume him.
Life in West Hollywood was tough, but Zxavier’s mother provided him with the support and strength he needed. However, two years ago, she tragically passed away from an undisclosed illness, leaving Zxavier with nowhere to go. With no other options, he turned to his father, despite their strained relationship. For the past two years, Zxavier has trained under his father at Nightfall, though he constantly feels like an outsider, overshadowed by his father’s legacy and the other "kids" Xavier trained.
Now, Zxavier is determined to carve his own path and make a name for himself, away from the shadow of his father. He calls himself "The OutKast," symbolizing his struggle to find his identity and break free from the expectations placed upon him. Despite his internal conflict, Zxavier is relentless, focused, and ready to prove that he is more than just Xavier Young’s son. His ultimate goal is to create his own legacy in the wrestling world.
