Lucy Parsons

Ava Clementine (born May 1st, 1943), known professionally as Lucy Parsons, is a Canadian hobbyist boxer and musician who is also a full-time student at the University of Victoria. Parsons' primary interest is in music, where she works with several others within her small subculture to arrange the new rock 'n' roll style even closer to the traditional blues jazz roots it is founded on, pioneering Punk Jazz. Heavily involved in the small emerging punk subculture brought on by the counterculture of mid-20th century universities, she wears clothing counter to what would traditionally be worn by women of the day. Parsons applied for entry into the Vega Brawl out of interest for the cash prize and to promote her band, relying on informal high school wrestling experience to float her resume. Parsons barely made the ballot, and was positioned to face off against Cassiopeia Bloom in the first round.

Creation
Parsons was created by Nahte Yamasztuka on April 30th, 2022 in an attempt to redesign a very early version of Zazzro's character Jeanette. This early design would give Parsons bright red died hair, a gray crop-top with a crudely drawn anarchy symbol, ripped jeans, black leather boots, lattice stockings on the arms, a magenta plaid bandanna, leaf and religious tattoos, spiked necklaces and bracelets, and carrying a 1980's style boombox over her shoulder. After changing so many elements of the character, Nahte decided to change what had remained of the original character's design in a pursuit of using the design for a Vega Brawl character. The location of Victoria, BC, Canada and the musical style of Punk Jazz were preselected as a template for a possible character, and the design perfectly filled that gap. However, Parsons would later need to go through many design changes to make her punk clothing at least in the ballpark of being historically accurate to the period of 1962, not to mention the removal of any other resemblances to the character's origin.
