This is the follow up to the "Exclusive Abilities" thread, and it pertains to the XWA Diamonds. Since we get the ability now to use female wrestlers in almost any match type for the first time in years, there's a few new guidelines that will be in place for the ladies.
Weightclass
All Diamonds should range between Light Heavy to Heavyweight. In keeping with the concept of realism, take into consideration that the biggest active female wrestler in the US- Awesome Kong's-actual weight is 250lbs., the size of an average heavyweight male wrestler. At present, we have no female who is even close to that size physically. This is merely a game specific requirement in order to keep things evenly matched. You can bill your character's weight to be whatever you wish for it to be.
Abilities
Based on your billed weight, that will encompass which abilities you'll be able to use. Here's the scale that will be put into place for all Diamonds:
Lightweight (100lbs.-140lbs.):
Examples- Amber Gianni, Marisol Cardinale, Sonya Robbins
Usage of Springboard exclusively
Middleweight (141lbs.-169lbs.):
Examples- Hayley Jonas, Kim Hunter, Bianca Dianaco
Usage of Springboard or Hammer Throw-only one can be chosen
Heavyweight (170lbs. & up):
Examples- Jamie Fury, Bull Nagano, Michelle Marx
Usage of Hammer Throw exclusively
Remember, this is based off of your billed weight in your profile, not your CAW's in-game weight. Basically, lighter ladies will be more nimble, larger, more athletically built ones can choose to lean either towards speed or power and the big girls will use the power ability of Hammer Throw specifically. All other abilities are under the same guidelines as presented in the Foreword thread.
