Biography (extended background on your character):
Stephen Nicholas Markowski, born 8th December 1992, is a Polish-English professional wrestler. His father Florek Markowski is from Poland, but has lived in England for the better part of his life and owns a music club there. Stephen’s mother Abigail Markowski-Drake was born in Newcastle, England, just like her son, and works as a teacher of literature and history at a grammar school. Stephen took up training for professional wrestling in small gym in England when he was 18, and year and a half later, American wrestling star Adam Stryker took him under his wings. Stephen wrestled for local small promotion under his real name Stephen Markowski or as Nick Stephens, but when he signed for FRONTIER and eventually EXODUS, he picked Sylar Drake as his ring name. Drake was the original surname of his mother and Sylar is his favorite TV series character from Heroes.
In his first run, Sylar found moderate success, participating in FRONTIER’s first ever Commonwealth Rules match and becoming the EXODUS Pro San Diego Bay Champion. After losing the championship, Sylar injured his ankle severely in a match against Brett Sands and was sidelined for several months. Upon his return to EXODUS, he showed a completely different attitude, stating he is a Martyr of Pro-Wrestling, betrayed by those who once considered friends, turning heel in the process and performing both as Sylar Drake and as his bodypainted alterego Nicholas The Insider. He also returned to FRONTIER, becoming a crucial part of the stable The Filth, put together by Frank „D.C.“ Wiland who helped him bounce back from substance abuse and depression Sylar suffered during his time off. Sylar eventually ditched the Nicholas The Insider persona and became exclusive to FRONTIER, where he and fellow Filth member Sterling Everett became the World Tag Team Champions, eventually splitting from stable and dubbing their duo Fear and Loathing in the UK.
In early 2015, Sylar took an extended break from wrestling, focusing on his musical career and taking care of his ill father. In May 2016, Sylar surprisingly returned to active competition in UKWF, revealing himself to be under the mask of FEAR.
