Background
It's funny how things work, really. Josh Syx never really intended to become famous. He never intended to become a household name. But sometimes fate has other things in store. Josh, however, was not a normal individual. He was the son of the God of War himself, Ares. Ares, it seems, had been on shore leave. He was posing as a Navy SEAL named Benjamin Byers, and managed to seduce Josh's mother, who was married. Her husband wasn't in the military, and had no idea about this one night of alcohol fueled indiscression. And she had no intention of telling either of them. But again, fate wouldn't let things be.
Josh was a sophmore in high school when he was visited by Ares for the first time. By this time, Josh had already established himself as a bit of a troublemaker, constantly getting into fights with other students, and of course had no way to direct the feelings that he constantly had. Ares gave him some direction, and eventually Josh worked his way into the high school wrestling team, using his newfound abilities to his advantage. Of course, he had to stop fighting with other students in order to stay on the team. So he fought out of school.
Josh found his way to a school that taught pro wrestling. He'd watched it on TV for years, but he hadn't really considered this. However, as soon as he got into it, he found out how much he loved doing it. And the more he did it, the more he loved it. It wasn't long before he found work on the local circuit. Again, he used his abilities to his advantage, and because of this, it didn't take long before he got the attention of the United Wrestling Federation. The UWF was the world's largest sports entertainment company. Although he started small with them, at the age of 18, Josh was a hard worker, and worked through the company quickly. By the time he was 25, this year, he was the UWF Champion, and of course, had also managed to get a role in a few relatively cheesey action movies, which mostly played to his popularity as a wrestler.
However, in a very recent show, something rather unexpected happened. A giant of all things managed to make it's way into the arena, and into the ring itself. It threw Josh's opponent into the crowd, and then went after him. But 'Triple' Syx wasn't about to have any of that. Durring the course of the fight, Josh managed to slam the creature into the ring, and through the ring. And through the floor under the ring, and into the basement. So now, the fans of the UWF seem to belive that it's a storyline where Josh is a scion.
Personality
Josh is a pretty laid back person, when it comes right down to it. He likes to kick back, relax, and have a couple of beers. But when it gets right down to it, he's more than willing to put out every last bit of effort to get the job done. He doesn't take the whole Scion thing too seriously, but he definately uses it to his advantage, having been using the powers he posesses to get himself to the top of the Unified Wrestling Federation.
Josh will definately jump in to help mortals, regardless of what is going on. He figures that he's already shown on international TV that he's a Scion, even if some people don't believe it because they think it's part of his pro wrestling gimmick. Regardless, he's more than willing to help those who he knows are unable to help themselves. Despite Ares being his father, he's not really the over agressive type like his father is known to be.
Relationships
Yeah, who do you know? Who is important?
