Submitted for those who don't know, these are the "staff" characters within the XWA, and the parameters of their roles.
Carmella Blackheart
President of the XWA/CEO of The Blackheart Foundation
Character capacity: She's your boss. She's the one who holds all the cards and all the keys. She can make your career, or make it a living hell.
Usage: None. Admin controlled. Will answer to posts in her office on an "as needed" basis and appear at or on shows with major announcements. Secondarily, she will be used for furthering or assisting with storylines, again on an "as needed" basis.
Chris Lionheart
General Manager
Character capacity: "On-Air" authority, and secondary decision-maker. He can make or change matches within a show.
Usage: None. Staff controlled. Will answer posts in his office thread or directed towards him in the Worldwide board as he so chooses. Can also interject into any match promo or roleplay "on-camera" to change or ammend match types or participants. (NOTE: Carmella can also do this)
Matt Goldman (left) & Buzz Berman (right)
Broadcast Journalists
Character Capacity: Goldman (base: UFC commentator Mike Goldberg) is the XWA's Play-By-Blay commentator, while Berman (base: Sports Radio show host Scott Ferrell) is color commentator.
Usage: All. Encouraged to use both in your "on-screen" roleplays to further create a "televised" feel to your posts. Goldman is the straight "tell it like is" face-style play-by-play man, while Buzz can be used like a "tweener", being very opinionated about the roster, either loving them to death or hating their guts. Verbal bantering is allowed with either of them, physicality is not.
Fabiola Castro
Backstage Reporter
Character Capacity: Conducts interviews with the roster backstage during the show, as well as reports on happenings backstage (injury reports, announcements, etc.)
Usage: All. Encouraged to use in your "on-screen" roleplays to further create a "televised" feel to your posts. Fabiola is similar to Buzz. Though she remains impartial, she can be used cynically towards heel characters, like a face wrestler would be. As with the commentators, verbal banter is fine, but physicality is not allowed.
