Aisha is a playable character in both the original Rumble Roses in 2004 and the sequel Rumble Roses XX in 2006. She fights under the moniker of "Dancin' Sister No 1". Her Japanese voice actress is Reiko Kiuchi. She was dubbed by Pari Banyan in the first game, with Julie Ann Taylor voicing her in the sequel. Her singing voice was provided by Aisha Goodison.[1][2][3]

Background

Aisha was born in Atlanta Georgia, though she moved to San Antonio Texas during her teens (between the age of 12-14, based on Dixie's established timeline) when her father got transferred there. She attended the same high school as Dixie Clemets (who was 2 years older than her) and the two soon became 'rivals'.

As time went on, Aisha's gifted singing voice and good looks helped launch a highly successful (and lucrative) career as a singer and performer. She would go on to win numerous Grammy Awards, helping her to become the top Diva and superstar of the music industry. Yet despite all her fame and fortune, Aisha could never forgot her old high school rivalry with Dixie...

So when she learned that her rival had entered the Rumble Roses Championship Tournament, Aisha promptly entered as well. Confident of her skills, Aisha intended nothing less than defeating Dixie in the wring- so that everyone would know that she was the best.[4]

Personality

Aisha is very energetic, as well as competative and ambitious by nature - as showcased by ongoing efforts to overtake Dixie Clemets. She enjoys being in the spotlight and uses the Rumble Roses Tournament as a chance to showcase her singing and dancing skills.

Many of her actions can be viewed as egotistical, as it can be argued that her true motive for fighting in the tournament was to simply prove (mainly to herself) that she was better than Dixie... Rather than as a means of furthering her career and becoming an even bigger star that she already is.

the two while Dixie doesn't appear to have any strong fealing on the matter one way or the other. Still in spite of this, Aisha carries herself with the poise and energy of a star and a diva. Her theme music (complete with her own lyrics and interspliced with video photage) plays during her introductions while she enters the ring with her backup dancers- performing an empressive choreographed dance number while dressed in flashy and provocative outfits.

Regardless of her vanity, Aisha is not incapable of acting unselfishly - even going so far as to save Dixie from Madam X's sneak-attack (during the final scene of Dixie's storyline) in the finals of the tournament. By the second game, she even goes so far as to form a tag-team with Dixie called "Rodeo Drive."

Appearance

Aisha 03

Aisha is very tall ( 5'11”) beautiful woman. She has a well-toned figure with a nicely curved profile. She has brown (or possibly olive) skin, along with light brown eyes and full-lips.

As a performer, she seems to favor having a more sensual (and less muscular) appearence. Her overall design may have been left somewhat ethnically ambiguous due to Japanese aesthetics. Her hair, which likely is dyed, comes downd a few inches past her shoulders. Her hair appears to be a light/medium brown with sandy/blond highlights... Or, according to 'industry' terms- Dark Auburn, with Light Ash Blonde and Honey Blonde highlights.[5]She also wears dark (purple?) eye-shadow and dark eyeline, with light-colored lipstick. Her eyebrows are a dark brown color.

Her regular (default) in-ring costume has an almost entirely white color scheme. The lower half of her outfit includes a pair of shiny white/pale-blue form-fitting ("hip-huggers") pants with a low waistline that exposes the straps of a white thong-like undergarment. She has on a white metal-studded belt looped into the top of her pants. She also wears a pair of white high-heeled designer sandals. The uppoer half of the outfit consists of only a sparkling white bikini-style top (which only really serves to show off her midriff and breasts). She wears a large jewell-studded necklace around her neck- complete jewelled strands that loop down, and a large narrow locket at the center that hangs down just above her cleavage. She also wears a pair of black kickboxing gloves and black elbow pads, along with multiple large and ornate gold braceletts on both wrists.

Super Star Aisha v2

When Aisha wins enough matches and gains enough popularity, her Super Star mode (along with her new outfit) becomes available. Much like her regular costume, the (default version of the) outfit is primarily white, with a blue trim- and sparkly.

It also has a vaguely 'Indian' theme to it- possibly to serve as a jab at Dixie Clemet's western-themed costumes. In keeping with her usual style, she arrives to the sound of bombastic music, and arrived in the wring in the same outfit that she had just performed in

In this mode, Aisha wears a white headband with a sing feather attatched to it. She also has on a skimpy shiny white bikini-style top and a very short shiny white skirt with a large blue leather belt. She also wears shiny white gloves that stop below the elbows and white high-healed boots that come up to just above the knee, along with sheer white stockings that come mid-way up her thighs.

Fighting Style

Aisha brings a lot of the same energy and style of her performing to the wring when she fights. It's worth noting that she does not practice any particular fighting discipline, so her style is more akin to a brawler or street-fighter. As a result, her specialty is powerful striking attacks and body throws. Her ability to meter out both high amounts of bodily damage and humiliation makes her especially well suited to PH-Matches and Streetfights.

Like the other larger fighters (or "Tanks"), Aisha can withstand a good deal of punishment- giving her the edge in a battle of physical attrition. However, her focus on attacking (combined with her size and slower reactions) makes her more vulnerable to reverse-attacks and reverse-submissions of faster and more agile fighters.

Trivia

  • Bizarrely, during the interview session in the first game, when asked who she would most like to meet... Aisha replies that she would like to meet "the late, great Aretha". This is odd, as she's most likely referring to Aretha Franklin, who is still alive to this day.
  • Aisha's singing voice is provided by Jamaican-born actress and singer Aisha Kamila Goodison- with whom she shares her namesake with.
  • In Rumble Roses XX, Aisha is the only character that moves while her stats are being viewed. Everyone else simply strikes a pose and remains still.
  • She is the only african american in the series (not counting player created characters).
  • She and Dixie are the only American in the series.
