Backstory/Important Character Details:
(I have played this character for 5 years steady, so his story (and backstory) have evolved quite a bit. I'll keep it concise as possible.)

Lazarus grew up, a victim of abuse; mental from the moment he watched his father being murdered in front of him - to all of the mental abuse from his step father - to watching his mother prostitute herself just to cover bare necessities in life, and then the physical from his step father.  Moved into the streets when an early teen, taken under the wing by Darkane, becoming a member of the Big Easy Undercity and surrounded himself by likeminded individuals. Victoria Poirier, Darkane's sister Cassie, Jack Seede, and Lazarus' girlfriend at the time - Aubrey Breaux; all of whom became his new "family". When aged Eighteen, Aubrey would give birth to her and Lazarus' child - Maisie Blair Beaux-Arjen - but would die afterword. Lazarus, Eighteen, would now be a single father.

During all of this, the Big Easy Undercity went through a radical shift. The other gangs in New Orleans were bolstering in numbers in preparation to overtake the city. Victoria Porier revealed to Lazarus and Darkane she was a victim of her step fathers perversions, and the two men would enact revenge upon him in the form of castration and a physical, near fatal, beating. Victoria took the fall for it, but after details emerged - instead of a jail sentence, she was put into a psyche-ward for evaluation and to serve the time. Afterword, Darkane would vanish and Lazarus became not only the head of the Big Easy Undercity, but swallowed by rage. The pain of his life, with the pain of his mentor abandoning him set him off on a violent path.

Victoria would be released and the feelings of love and admiration for Lazarus only further grew, but she kept those quiet as she always has. She became a surrogate mother to Maisie while urging Lazarus to leave, to go after Darkane. And that is what he did, building a new family as he did - the Killjoy Club in Europe and the Profane in the OWA with OZIAS at his side every step of the way. He would get his hands on Darkane, finally defeating him in battle - but that wasn't the end of it. He wanted to break, to ruin, to kill his former brother. Together with Victoria, Lazarus devised a diabolical plan that made Darkane believe Maisie Arjen was in trouble - had been kidnapped by a rival New Orleans gang.

The plan worked and Darkane sided with OZIAS and Lazarus, making their bloody way through New Orleans until Maisie was back with Lazarus. It pulled something out of the aging veteran that hadn't been seen in sometime; emotion. Human emotion. Darkane now once more at his side, Lazarus helped him complete his career - capturing the tag team championships and holding them a historic reign. During this reign, Darkane continued to age and thanks to his life, and wrestling style, his body continued to deteriorate. The reign and the faux-reunion came to an end when Lazarus plunged the blade right into his mentors heart. The final match between them was a buried alive match, which Lazarus won in a bloody and violent assault - killing his mentor with the help of Calipso. All of this happening with the belief that he was channeling the spirit of "Asmodeus; the King of Demons". 

It would later be revealed that Lazarus had a mental break, his mind projecting manifestations of these demons. He was deemed psychotic and placed within the care of Dr. Hatcher - psychiatrist and medical doctor. Dr. Hatcher is found at Lazarus' side at all times in order to prevent his violent outbursts.

Strengths:
• Pain Tolerance. Years of abuse at home, living in the low-incoming housing projects of New Orleans and defending himself against the hoods and thugs there, not to mention his Deathmatch history; Lazarus Arjen is almost impervious to pain.
• Resiliency. Coupled with his high pain tolerance, is the will and the heart to never give up. The word ‘Quit’ doesn’t exist to him now, nor did it when he fought his way from the streets, out of his broken - abusive home, and in the deathmatch circuit.
• Speed. Being as small as he is, speed is his biggest factor (alongside aggression) when going into a match. He doesn’t utilize it like a luchador would, but uses it to avoid bigger athletes until he picks a spot to strike and exploit.

Weaknesses:
• Aggression. His wrestling style is a double edge sword. While he utilizes his raw aggression to fuel his offense, he is no longer within the deathmatch realm. His aggression could end up costing him matches in the long run.
• Technique. Lazarus wasn’t technically ‘trained’ in his career, until recently and even that was just tips and pointers he picked up from a brief stay in Japan. Lazarus has always relied on his brawling and ultra-violent style, so against someone highly trained technically, Lazarus will be completely out of his element.
• - Size. Perhaps his biggest weakness. Lazarus will never be the biggest competitor in the ring, unless the match is intergender - and even then he’s not much. This makes it easier for opponents to impose their will on Lazarus, using obvious strength advantages.

In-Ring Style (Technician? High Flyer?):
He sticks closely to the violent, chaotic brawling nature of wrestling. No wrestling school ever took the chance to properly train Lazarus - but his mentor, Darkane, has given him pointers on some technique. Coupled with that, and picking up things from his experience, he has begun to show flashes of technical brilliance; but Laz has a penchant for violence and that is why he sticks to the brawling aspect. He’s hyper-aggressive. Lazarus doesn’t care whether he wins or loses a match, he only gets pleasure by inflicting as much pain as possible to his opponent. He will always take the fight to the outside of the ring, trying to influence the match turning into an ‘extreme’ style match (aka. Death match), which is his wheelhouse. | TL:DR - Scrappy street fighter. Nothing is off the table, do everything necessary in order to inflict damage and pain.

Signature Maneuvers.
          (To add more punishment to the moves listed below, he loves to drive his opponent down onto chairs, tacks, light tubes, gusset boards or what have you.)
• “Unbridled Hate” Violence Party. Rapid fire alternating chops and forearms in the corner.

• “Hymns of the Damned” Vertical Muta Lock [ X ]. 

Finishing Maneuvers
• “Cemetery Symphony” Package Piledriver.
• “Finit Hic, Deo” Bull Hammer Elbow.  This is a move that is generally hit ‘out of nowhere’, and he will throw as much force into it as humanly possible.

Ultra Finishing Maneuver
• “The Culling” Mandible Claw. This move will always finish a match if he were to use it. Sometimes for added depravity, he'll wrap barbed wire around his fingers before executing the move.


Favorite Hardcore Attacks/Spots:
          (Be as violent as you want to. Listed below are weapons he has used in previous matches.)
• Lead Pipe. He's used the same trusted pipe since his street gang days as a member of the "Big Easy Undercity". The same pipe has made its way to Europe during his run in Kingdom Pro., in Next Level Wrestling and Omega Wrestling Alliance.
• Barbed Wire. Lazarus will use the barbed wire to wrap around objects such as a chair, table, bat, pipe - etc, or will fight through the pain of the barbs piercing his own flesh and wrap it around his fists (or even himself in extreme circumstances before throwing himself toward an opponent.). Otherwise, he'll wrap it around his opponents throat and choke them with it.
• Light Tubes / Glass Panes.
• Screwdriver.
• A bundle of syringes taped together. These would be used to stab his opponent's head mercilessly, or shoved into their mouth, stabbing their tongue or cheek - sometimes ending in a superkick to that area.
• Salt. Lazarus will purposely keep a bag of salt under the ring at all times, and in bloody matches where his opponent has sustained several cuts or more, Lazarus will (literally) pour salt on the wounds.
