FACTION BACKSTORY
By early 2019, the couple of Slate Bass and Eden Bassignani had already established themselves in wrestling. Eden helped lead her husband to a historic and dominant title run, made him a true contender to any title he wishes to pursue, and turned the former Head Pimp in Charge into a truly intelligent, brutal and methodical wrestler. Their love was confirmed in marriage, through death do us part, and they even gave birth to a daughter, Keres.
With a family, the two helped create a wrestling company called Liberty or Death Wrestling. The two mostly kept away from the ring, only stepping in when there was a greater purpose. The company for its time created new faces such as Patriot, Brian Toogood, Alexandra Marie, and gave a new lease on life for competitors such as Darius Wright, Al Blizzard, and Mike Valander. However, the creation Eden and Slate were most proud of was Princess Nova.
Wishing to expand their family, Eden signed and zeroed in on Nova Taylor, a former model turned pro-wrestling known for her colourful hair and heart. There was some familiarity between the three from a previous company, including a match between Nova and Slate, but they were against each other before. Knowing that behind the Rainbow Princess’s cheerful disposition was TORN woman, Eden and Slate Bass brought it out of her. Nova saw her destiny and embraced her fate as Princess Nova.
Despite some ups and downs, like any family, the trio perhaps has shown their bond to be unbreakable. Eden is the unofficial head of the family, the woman who weaved their fates together and provides love and guidance to her husband and protegee. Manipulative, and yet a nurturing mother, even if she rarely steps into the ring, she is perhaps the most dangerous of the three. Slate Bass, while an intellect himself, has taken the role as the power, standing up for his love, even against her wishes. The TORN Warrior has had no problem ripping people in two mentally and physically all for the greater purpose. As for Princess Nova, she has proved to be the heart of the family, the guardian angel who helps care for Keres and yet, she is guided by Eden. Over time, she has become more like Eden, her colour draining to black, and embracing her own malicious traits. Her loyalty knows no bounds.
Regardless of what you think of the family. Whether they are an evil bunch or misunderstood, Eden, Slate Bass, and Princess Nova are a family, TORN happily.
ENTRANCE INFORMATION
ENTRANCE THEME
"Roots" By In This Moment
ENTRANCE
As “Roots” begins to play, the lights turn off in the arena as strobe lights near the entranceway flash white and purple. As soon as the lyrics kick in, the members of The Residence make their way out with Eden in the middle, Slate on her left, and Princess Nova on her right. Slate holds a signature cocktail in his hand, Princess Nova holds her cape behind her whilst Eden has a rose in her hand. The Seamstress of Reality licks the thorn-covered step before kissing her husband. Eden turns to Princess Nova who curtsies to her mentor. Eden kisses her forehead before she leads the three down the ramp.
Reina de la Cruz: Introducing first/their opponents at a combined weight of 457 pounds, the TORN Warrior, Slate Bass, the TORN Angel, Princess Nova, and the Seamstress of Reality, Eden, The Residence!
Pierce Donovan: any possible entrance commentary
Whilst the trio are heading down the rampway, the lights of the arena are all now flashing a violent violet. At the end of the ramp, Slate breaks away and heads up the steps while the ladies walk around the ring. Scraping his shoes on the apron, Slate Bass steps into the ring, still holding his cocktail. Meanwhile, Princess Nova sheds her cape before sliding under the bottom rope, doing the splits whilst she does. Eden slides onto the apron and lies in a seductive manner. Behind her, Slate Bass stands in the ring while Princess Nova hooks her leg on the top rope.
Jasper Phoenix: further commentary if needed
Eden slides into the ring and Nova gets off the ropes, joining Slate. The three stand in the middle of the ring where a flashing purple and green spotlight is on them. The Torn Warrior puts his hand in his jacket pocket while Princess Nova curtsies. Eden poses with her rose before tossing it away. The lights turn back to normal in the arena while The Residence head to their corner as their theme music fades away.
-Tag Team Entrances Which Only Require Two Members are similar, just without the third person. If Eden is not present, then at the ramp, Nova curtsies to Slate whilst he raises his glass to her-

CONTACT: Via DM for Both, Discord also for me
(I thought having a sign up explaining the faction as a whole would be helpful, even if we won't team all the time and our characters will still do our own things, though always aligned. Awesome logos done by Jonny... Except I wrote on the AMA logo :3)
