Sage (formerly known as John Murphy)
Words of Wisdom To The Foolish...
Seconds after the Lord of Blood flings down his microphone a voice can be heard speaking out to him. Surprising the voice is not echoed throughout anything other than a microphone. The voice is strong, confident, and more importantly proud. This voice comes from the mouth of the man who had man handled two creatures at a house show in Boston recently. His appearance is different from before in regards to the fact he is clad in what appears to be blue and red attire that seems to be a custom made uniform or suit of sorts. The suit is made up of the same colors he was wearing with his t-shirt, hat, and jean shorts. However, in the center of his chest there was an "S" symbol that was reminiscient of the Man of Steel himself. However, the message he intended to send was the exact opposite of that.
From out of the crimson shadows and lights emerged the lone figure of John Murphy. With a microphone in hand he walked from out of the entrance way atop top the ramp and stood on the stage looking ahead of him into the ring without flinching or even blinking. It was evident this vampire fed more on the fear of others than he did on actual blood. On this night, if his meal was solely based on fear from him he would be slumbering hungry.
Raising the microphone to his mouth he uttered a simple word, "Human? What is it to be human? The dictionary tells us the meaning of humans, also known taxonomically as Homo sapiens. The Latin meaning of the word "wise man" or "knowing man") So I find fitting that I bare the name of what I am and those whom I represent and fight for. That is why I will no longer be known as John Murphy you will address me as Sage."
A slight smile crossed his face momentarily, "In the event you do not understand the reasoning behind my declaration being I am not speaking your language and using filth and obsenities, the defintion of Sage is a wise man, a man of gravity and wisdom. A man proceeding from wisdom; well judged; shrewd; and well adapted to the purpose. I have not come here to suggestion your existence is an abomination I will say that I feel your abilities give you some kind of belief that you are above the natural progression of this world. In particuarly, the nature progression and evolution of this business. Nothing last forever and everything that has a beginning has an end. Without any humans there could be no creatures wrestling. While you are unspeakably powerful your ignorance is your biggest weakness and will ultimately be your downfall.
I do not need to be the Lord of anything. If you were to say I do have a power that power would be knowledge of myself and the world around me. That, along with the depth of my convictions, are my greatest strengths. Whether my last days on earth are ahead of me I can not say, but what I can say is that before I breathe my last breath, I will defeat you and usher in a new era where creatures and humans alike may compete on a level playing field with mutual respect for each other. The dark days will end and if I have to eliminate you and every other dark creature too blinded by their own selfish pride consider the process of elimination as offically begun...
With that the newly proclaimed S glances down at the symbolic S on his chest with a proud smile taking an opportunity to take in the reaction of the crowd which seems to be mixed at best...
