Biography
When it comes to wild ones, one would look no further than Hlemgiwe, a young, muscular female Raptor from Africa. Known as ""the Rowdy Raptor"" within her home town, she tends to be a larger than life, jovial person with a bit of a temper who isn't afraid to get physical if the situation is needed. This comes in handy when her little brother needed her.
But that was a basic backstory. The beginning of the story behind this young woman starts off a bit tragic, unfortunately. Hlemgiwe, or Hlem for short, was the only daughter of her family, the Akellos. But tragedy would strike when she was only 5, as both her parents would succumb to an illness. Keeping the promise they made to them to keep her safe should they pass, the Raptor would be taken in by their friends, the Mmeremikwus, a family of Monkeys living in the city of Jinja. It was then that Hlem would meet her new little brother, Olajide, or Ollie for short, a green monkey who she'd instantly make as her favorite person in the world.
As the two grew up together, Ollie began to have a dream of becoming a professional wrestler. With nothing better to do, Hlem began to train with him in hopes of becoming one herself. And as both were able to maintain excellent grades in school and their family saving enough money up, both were able to be sent to the United States for a further education, helping them become more successful, to have a backup plan should wrestling not work out. As the two of them went to Pack Territory University, however... Something seemed to change for Hlem.
Whenever she wasn't doing schoolwork or in the developmental training program, she wanted to find something else to do. And that happened to be watching the Pack Territory sports team. She found herself admiring the athleticism of the players and began to wonder if she could do that, too. During one day when the gym was free, she managed to find herself a basketball and try to emulate some of the shots they did. And surprisingly, she was not only able to replicate it, but get serious air when jumping! Unbeknownst to her, some of the players of the team had seen her and highly advised that she try out to be part of the team. However, she had doubts due to wanting to stay with Ollie.
That is until Ollie himself confronted her and said, ""I'm not a baby anymore, Hlem! Go do what you wanna do, okay?""
As such, the 6'10, 257 lbs Raptor decided to work more on her basketball skills. Having incredible verticality, powerful dunks, and and overall explosive energy, she looks to become a powerful member of whatever team takes her! And... personal mission of hers, she seems to be interested in another FBA player who also happens to have a sibling who's in professional wrestling. Hlemgiwe Mmeremikwu seems to wanna face and learn more about current Williamsburg Minutemen player, Shuggy Hoscut...!
