Lucille has a pretty colorful history. Personal problems led her to leave
Halifax, and become a dealer at a Las Vegas casino. After the death of
her father, she became disheartened with her life and left the casino. She
collected her savings, and began travelling across Europe, eventually
stopping in East Asia. She studied Eastern philosophies such as Buddhism
and Taoism, and came to realize a strong belief in fate. Believing she
was destined to serve a better purpose than her own selfish motives, Lucille
began studying Muay Thai in Bangkok. After many hours of rigorous training,
and many gruelling matches, she took her new skills back to North America,
where she studied to become a professional wrestler. She was sure that she
could make the sport "cleaner" by beating the underhanded competitors therein.
She had a few good matches, but it seemed that every federation closed around
her before she could make a real difference. What's more, people ridiculed
her for her choice of careers, laughing at her for participating in a "fake"
sport. Lucille felt that she could be treated better, especially when her
motivation for wrestling was hardly self-serving. She wanted respect, the
kind she'd gotten as a kickboxer. She kicked around Las Vegas for a few
months, unsure of what she should do. Then she saw the sign in the front
door of Santelli's School of Boxing: "Female boxers wanted - contact WEBA
front office", along with a phone number. It hit her like a Foreman uppercut.
If the WEBA was looking for a few good women, why not volunteer? The money
could certainly be good, and nobody would question the quality of her career
choice. The sanity, maybe, but not the quality. :)
Lucille has one rather annoying habit. She simply loves to crack her
knuckles. It's really automatic by this time she doesn't even realize
she's doing it. But she drives people absolutely bonkers. Her intro
music is "The Gambler" by Kenny Rogers and the First Edition.
