A/N Hey all! So, I've decided to continue this one after all (trust me, the ending I have in mind makes a lot more sense with the title of "We Are One", which, as we all know, was the theme song of the original Nexus and my second-favourite Wade Barrett theme song after "End Of Days"). So, in the interests of continuing the story with a fresh mind, I thought I'd do a quick recap of all of the characters so far, and a recap of all of the Five Great Clans.
"Lucky" Star Barrett (formerly Hoshi Kowareta, also "Honey Badger"): A member of the Misneach Clan, Star is the most powerful Misneach alive, able to use her eye powers with only one eye, something no other Misneach in history has accomplished. Sold to the paedophile Ronald Lyncness as a baby, she grew up being abused until one night he lost her in a poker game. She escaped, and met her best friend/guardian/boyfriend Wade Barrett. At first she was a scared, meek, weak girl but with the help of Wade she's now grown into a fun-loving trouble-maker who can take on anyone in the WWE. She's still claustrophobic and scared of the dark, but otherwise she's just like any other woman in her early twenties. A member of the Unholy Trio, Star is a devious plotter whose plans usually end up causing Wade a lot of grief and everyone else a lot of amusement. Hates being called "little" with a violent passion, loves honey just as passionately. Although she loves to antagonise Wade, she is completely loyal to him and loves him above anything or anyone else, often putting herself in grave danger to keep him from getting hurt.
Birthday: Unknown, but celebrated on August 10 (given to her by Wade Barrett)
Theme Song: "We Are One" (with Wade Barrett)/"End Of Days" (by herself or with the Unholy Trio)
Signature Moves: Paralysis Slaps, Infinite Paralysis, X-Ray Eyes, Copy Eyes, Truth Eyes, Future Eyes, Puppet Eyes (forbidden to use this by Wade Barrett)
Finisher: Wastelands
Wade "Bad News" Barrett: The second son of the Barrett Clan, whose power and influence Wade takes advantage of on a daily basis to keep the money rolling and himself out of prison. Wade is a cold, calculating man whose main interest is his bank account. For most of his life he was a typical Barrett who only cared about himself, until he lost his heart to Star and accidentally activated the long-forgotten bloodline trait of the Barrett Clan – by loving Star, he Imprinted on her, causing him to be whatever she needs. His Imprint also awakened a voice in his head, which annoys the stuffing out of him. If he perceives Star to be under any sort of threat, his temper will rise activating his Silver Eyes, making him completely invulnerable and powerful, while leaving him completely subservient to Star (he's often referred to as "Bad News Barrett" when this happens). At first, his love for her was of the brotherly/fatherly type, until she grew up and his passion for her exploded. He still has a disciplinary role in Stars life, although he encourages her to be devious and cunning – as long as it doesn't inconvenience him.
Birthday: August 10 (shared with Star)
Theme Song: "We Are One" (with Star)/"Rebel Son" (by himself)
Signature Moves: Paralysis Slaps, Winds of Change
Finisher: Wastelands/Bullhammer Elbow (as Bad News Barrett)
Justin Gabriel: A member of the Unholy Trio, Justin was the first friend Star made outside of Wade Barrett. Justin is usually the voice of reason within the Unholy Trio, although he nearly always gets sucked in to whatever scheme Star has thought up. Although he can usually keep Heath Slater from going off the deep end, sometimes he gets caught up in Heaths energy. He's fiercely protective of Star, and secretly has a crush on Beth Phoenix.
Birthday: March 3
Theme Song: "Fear Nothing" (by himself)/"End of Days" (with the Unholy Trio)
Signature Moves: Black to the Future, Hurricanrana, Tornado DDT
Finisher: 450 Splash
Heath Slater: A member of the Unholy Trio, Heath was one of Stars first friends. He's the energy of the Unholy Trio, and will easily go along with whatever trouble Star has planned, although he baulks at some of her more insidious plans. Loud and proud, Heath is a huge fan of rock music (one of the only things Wade likes about him). Don't underestimate him though, he's stronger than he looks and can beat anyone provided he doesn't get distracted.
Birthday: July 15
Theme Song: "More Than One Man" (by himself)/"End of Days" (with the Unholy Trio)
Signature Moves: Clothesline, Flapjack, Super Scoop Powerslam
Finisher: Smash Hit
Beth Phoenix: Stars first female friend and main rival for the Womens Championship. Beth sees Star as a younger sister, and will try to guide her as best she can. She hates Wade Barrett, who in her eyes doesn't deserve Star. She enjoys the company of the Unholy Trio and finds their antics hilarious, sometimes joining them on whatever adventures they go on.
Birthday: November 24
Theme Song: "Glamazon"
Signature Moves: Glam Slam Stretch, Military Press, Dragon Sleeper
Finisher: Glam Slam
Ezekiel Jackson: Zeke is a good friend of the Barrett Clan, and helps Wade Barrett keep the Unholy Trio in line. He is more amused than annoyed by their antics. Although he usually stops short of getting involved in their plans, he will often covertly help them out by removing obstacles or distracting Wade.
Birthday: April 22
Theme Song: "Domination"
Signature Moves: Lariat, Multiple Scoop Slams, Shoulder Block
Finisher: Book of Ezekiel
John Cena: An unwilling member of the Nexus, John is the main rival of Wade Barrett. His heart is constantly torn between Star, who he fell in love with while part of the Nexus, and Randy Orton, who he's always had a fierce love/hate relationship with.
Randy Orton: A member of Clan Viper, Randy is one of the most powerful members of his Clan. He has a strong respect for Star, and a strong dislike for Wade Barrett. He feels a strong connection with John Cena, and is somewhat amused by Johns strong feelings for both himself and Star.
CM Punk: The new leader of the Nexus. He is desperate for a pair of Misneach eyes of his own, especially Stars as they're the most powerful ones in existence. Harbours a deep jealousy of the Clans, especially Clan Barrett, whose power and influence are felt worldwide even without the use of their dormant bloodline trait.
David Otunga: CM Punks second-in-command, David has hated Wade Barrett since the moment he met him, and was the main force behind having him removed from the Nexus.
And finally...
Treelo Misneach: The younger sister of Star. Treelo was fourteen when she met her sister, and nearly fell into the trap of drugs and alcohol that plagues the Misneach Clan. After meeting her sister, she decided to clean up her act and is now passionate about becoming the Head of the Clan so she can restore the name Misneach to glory. Not quite as powerful as her sister, Treelo is more confident and more focused than her sister. Also loathes to be called little, and has a severe hazelnut addiction. Is best friends with Emma and Adam Rose.
Emma: Sometimes dubbed "Emmalina" by her friends, Emma is the best friend of Treelo and hopes one day to get to the WWE to train under Star. She's zany and fun, and also fiercely loyal to her clan and to Treelo.
Adam Rose: A South African Misneach whose family left the clan before he was born, Adam is a good friend of Treelo and Emma. He too wants to see the Misneach Clan returned to glory, and is also trying to get to the WWE to train under Star.
The Five Great Clans:
Clan Misneach: Based in the village of Radaxian just north of Brisbane, Australia. Plagued with a curse of drunkenness. Their bloodline trait is their Eye Powers. A Misneach will have five Eye Powers in their lifetime, staring with the relatively harmless X-Ray Eyes and either Copy Eyes or Mimic Eyes. The types of Eye Powers number in the hundreds, and new ones are always being discovered. The most powerful of these Eye Powers can leave a Misneach blinded for hours (such as Puppet Eyes, Healing Eyes, Time Eyes, Ghost Eyes), and there are a select few that can even cause permanent damage, such as Oracle Eyes or Life Eyes. The Head of the Clan is currently Moseby, and the Head of Clan is responsible for choosing the next person to lead the Clan once their time is up.
Clan Barrett: Based in Preston, England. The Barretts are exceedingly arrogant and self-centred, with financial and political power worldwide. Their bloodline trait, Imprinting, is rarely seen due to the fact that it can only be activated if a Barrett truly loves someone (which Barretts never do). In fact, it's believed that Wade Barrett is the first in many centuries to Imprint. If a Barrett Imprints on you, you're lucky – you cannot die until they die. They will also awaken the Silver Eyes if they feel that you're under any threat, meaning they become invincible and completely subservient to your will. The Head of the Clan is Wades older brother, and the leadership of the Clan is passed down to the oldest grandson.
Clan Viper: Based in many locations around the world including the US, Spain, China, Ireland and Africa. Vipers are born with a symbiotic demon inside them, which if they choose will feed off their sanity while giving them the ability to call on said demon when they need it. Vipers choose their Head of Clan via a lengthy set of Trials, which are physically, mentally, spiritually and sometimes sexually draining tasks with the best performer overall being picked to lead the Clan, while any others who pass are admitted to their Council. The current Head of the Clan is named Walter, while Randy Orton is a prominent member of their Council.
Clan Grey Goat: No one knows where this Clan is based, as they keep it a closely-guarded secret. Members of Clan Grey Goat need to grow out their hair (and in the case of males, their beards) in order to increase their power. This, along with their stature, has earned them the status as a bit of a joke within the Great Clans. Another thing that makes the other Clans giggle is the amount of dissension within the Clan – being the Head of the Clan is a dangerous task, as there are many Grey Goat factions who are always trying to take power of the Clan. The longest a Head of Clan has lasted is about six months before they are often assassinated and replaced.
Clan Phenom: Based in Death Valley, USA. The Phenoms are considered to be the most powerful of the Clans, however this is often challenged by the Vipers and Misneaches. They are responsible for controlling the many creatures of the night, such as vampires, ghouls, werewolves, wraiths, the undead, goblins, ogres and unicorns. The end of April is when they're at their most powerful (which is how the Undertaker has maintained his Wrestlemania streak), otherwise their biggest weakness is the Misneach Eye Powers. The current Head of the Clan is the Undertaker, and their path of succession is unknown.
