Gimmick: To say Tonya Scott has had an unusual route to the world of pro wrestling is an understatement; you see, wrestling isn't Tonya's first love. Her passion? Magic. That's right; Tonya Scott is a fully qualified magician, illusionist, mentalist, hypnotist, escapologist and a fully certified member of the fabled "Magic Circle". As you can imagine, the life of an up-and-coming magician isn't that great for paying the bills, so she started working some local shows in her native Georgia; turns out she was a natural, and when she incorporated her day job into her gimmick, she began to get noticed on the indy scene and seemed perfect for Ground Zero.
Alignment: Tweener ( As a magician, her main goal is to make people smile, but at the same time, she's been known to reach into her bag of inventive magic tricks to get the dub, and while they're most certainly shortcuts, they are entertaining)
Picture Base: Anna Jay.- Pre-Dark Order
In-ring Attire: Midnight blue matching halter top and wrestling trucks decorated with bright white shimmering outlines of stars, complete with matching boots and knee pads with the letters "T" and "S" stamps on each one. Also wears a white bow tie around her neck.
Entrance Attire: Over her wrestling attire, she downs a black top hat bearing the same star outline and a black tuxedo jacket
Wrestling Style:
It's easy to look down on Scott because still being a rookie in the world of wrestling and the whole "magic act" thing. But do so at your peril; her main selling point is her showmanship, but she's naturally athletic and nimble; as a former cheerleader, her natural athleticism and agility have given her a fine foundation to grow and learn, and while she's not the finished product, she's miles ahead of many others in her position, a diamond in the rough to be sure.
Being trained in magic has given her one surprising advantage; being a student of escapology, she knows and understands pressure points and how to move and dislocate her body to escape certain holds; if she can escape a strait jacket, she can escape a hammerlock. So she's capable of pulling off some creative counters to all manner of holds and moves, even when you think you have her dead to rights in the centre of the ring in a cripplingly painful hold, she's capable of pulling off the most insane counters known to man.
And then, of course, there's her big ace in the hole. Her day job, her bag of magic tricks she uses liberally to get the jump on her opponents mostly used to bamboozle her opponents, for example, she has been known to hit someone with a steel chair and make it vanish before the ref can cop to what's going on

-Not so much a move but a signature spot where she uses her magic to distract her opponent to get a head up; when her opponent is on a roll, she'd suddenly put up her hands to stop her opponent and then PING- she produces a bouquet of flowers/a deck of cards/rabbit/etc. out of nowhere!! Her opponent stops, momentarily frozen in confusion, which leaves them open to an attack from Scott
BAG OF "MAGIC" TRICKS -Yes, that's right, I've added my own section
"Magic" Wand- Scott's weapon of choice, typically hidden in her top hat, which is regularly left by ringside- yet strangely, the hat seems to be empty when she makes her entrance- it's fair to say there's been a lot of controversy surrounding the wand. For all intents and purposes, it LOOKS like a cheap plastic magician wand you might buy in a costume store, but when Tonya hits someone with it, they go down like they've been shot, almost like they've just been hit by an iron pipe, for what it's worth. Tonya has claimed the only thing her wand is loaded with is "magic", so take that for what it's worth.
-Has often produced a fireball, Shiek style in times of REAL desperation.
- Has been known to appear and disappear at a moment's notice, undertaker style, lights go out. lights come back on, but she ain't there.
-Once won a match after using a pocket watch to mesmerize an opponent to forget rope breaks were a thing

ENTRANCE MUSIC: "Lola Blanc - The Magic"
REGULAR ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION
The lights strobe along with the beats of "Lola Blanc-The Magic" as the big screen in invaded by all manner of star graphics. All those lights dim however leaving only a spotlight with catches the glittering tux of Tonya Scott as she struts out casually twirling her top hat in her hand with a dazzling smirk on her face, once she hits the centre of the stage she turns her back to the crowd, spreads out her hands and in a few smooth, dramatic well practised motions she places her top hat on her head and turns her head with a confident smile, she begins to make her way down to the ring arms outstreched making a few playful "magic" hand flurries at the crowd, before sautering up the steps and ducking in between her the top and second rope, careful to keep her hand on her hat as she enters the ring, the lone spotlight follows her all the way to the ring as she takes centre, places her hand on her stomach and in a well practised motion twirls her hand and flamboyantly bows before the crowd still smiling before retreating to the corner where she carefully takes off her tux and takes off her top hat, taking care to show the hard cam, the inside of the hat to show how empty it is...for now. She winks and lovingly places the hat under the corner. Pointing at the ref and telling him, "Don't touch the hat; it's full of magic", before adjusting her bow tie and getting ready to go
