ย ย ย ย ย EL PHANTASMO. better known as ELP. lesser known as RILEY. ๐ค๐ป
ย ย ย ย ย ย 37-years-old // njpw // former bullet club // currently aligned with g.o.d.
labeled as the "class clown" from a young age, riley is still going strong even years later. he's always been smarter and more clever than he lets on; it's just easier to play the role of resident dumbass. on the surface, he's a lovable asshole who's never serious. however, there's always a party going on inside that head of his, one complete with music that goes 'wub wub'. it takes a lot of prying to crack into his deeper thoughts. once you do, a brilliant, optimistic, and deeply loving person awaits.
even at age 37, he's still figuring life out. he never seems to keep a permanent home for long, always traveling to and from japan or simply staying in his parents spare room whenever he's back home in vancouver. serious relationships are also far and few for him, but aside from a recent heartbreak, he doesn't truly mind being on his own. in fact, it's better. many of his years have been spent with casual hookups because it's easier.
before wrestling came into his life and he chose his ring name by looking at his playlists, he worked as an animator and the creativity has carried with him. he often designs merch and other graphics, and even dabbles in mixing music. just don't expect to see his sketchbook. his adrenaline seeking habits are also ones that stuck with him. even a freak motorcycle accident that still leaves him with a constantly sore hip couldn't scare him away. he surfs, skates, snowboards, and will definitely try to backflip off anything after a few beers.
once you get past his many quirks, you might find that you couldn't have a better friend for life.
CONNECTIONS.
@rowanlevine : still a sore subject. they were inseparable for nearly a year from the day they met, and riley really did think this was the one. in that time, he learned to let love in and finally discovered what it felt like to have a real home. they were good for each other, oftentimes yin and yang. while they had their fair share of playful banter and difficulties to overcome, they never once had a single real fight. things were great. however, being at different places in their lives which led riley to feel guilty as though he was stringing rowan along after him, he initiated the breakup. to this day, heโs still wondering if it truly was for the best. riley is very much heartbroken over what was one of the very few real relationships in his life and itโs taking all his strength to not fall back into old habits.
