GIMMICK: It would be easy to say Toki has no gimmick, or is ‘just’ a professional wrestler, but those statements, while true, don’t tell the whole story. The whole story is more complicated. Minako Toki, like all of us, is human, and the human spirit to fight lives deep in the “Blood Red Lotus.” For just like the flower she is nicknamed for, Toki has grown and still grows through the harshest conditions to bloom, bright and strong for all the world to see and admire.

CHARACTER BIOGRAPHY: After years of pushing ahead on the Japanese scene as a respected, top-of-card competitor, Toki seeks the ultimate glory which has eluded her – the opportunity to represent a professional wrestling company as their “ace,” or undisputed best contender, and as the top champion. What better place than Miracle Galaxy Pro? What better time than now, in the Ring of Dreams, to push beyond doubt, through pain, and onward towards the ultimate dream?
“The Blood Red Lotus” wants to overcome the negativities of life and compete with the very best in the world. Toki fights until she physically cannot – and sometimes even longer. She never gives up and loves when the fans acknowledge her struggle and encourage her to push further and harder.
Outside of the ring, Minako Toki enjoys training and learning more about the world of professional wrestling. Beyond wrestling, Toki enjoys professional baseball, supporting the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks of Nippon Professional Baseball, occasionally playing video games, and visiting her incarcerated father, Satoshi.

ENTRANCE (OPTIONAL): The best description of Toki's ring entrance is likely this video of a performance of her entrance theme:


While the lights aren’t completely out, there are red, gold, and white spotlights and ambient lights through the arena as the song begins. As the guitar wails, Minako Toki steps onto the stage and takes a moment to breathe, soaking up the moment and what is to come. When the verse begins, Toki begins to make her way down the aisle or ramp towards the ring. Toki carefully hops onto the apron and wipes her boots before stepping into the ring as the chorus begins, lifting her open hands into the air and turning to face the crowd. Occasionally, if the fans are super supportive, they will throw a mix of red and gold streamers with spattering of white or black. Toki likes the support regardless of color. She is also careful to bow to the official and any present representatives and while she does not bow to her opponent, she is courteous and respectful of their talent and the contest to come.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS

List any notable accomplishments your specific character might have achieved in the past.

• While Toki has achieved many things and been honored in various ways over the course of her in-ring career, none are worth mentioning in this space as they have not contributed towards her ultimate goal of being the foremost champion or the ace of a company.

(NON-PRESENT) MANAGER'S NAME: Satoshi Toki

PICTURE BASE: Minoru Suzuki

RELATIONSHIP TO WRESTLER: Estranged(-ish) father

BIOGRAPHY: The story of her father, the incarcerated Satoshi Toki, is one Minako does not tell with joy. Perhaps it is best for this story to remain untold.
