Anesthesia is a playable character in both the original Rumble Roses in 2004 and sequel Rumble Roses XX in 2006. She fights under the moniker of "The Dark Nightingale". Her Japanese voice actress is Ai Orikasa. She was dubbed by Donna Burke in the first game, with Wendee Lee voicing her in the sequel.[1][2]
Background
In the first game, Anesthesia is introduced as the personal assistant to the champion Madam X. In truth, she's the mastermind who created Madam X. She also is the one who 'transformed' Fujiko Hinomoto into Evil Rose, as well as the actual cause of of the various Heel-Turns in in the story mode. She is effectively the main villain of the first game.
She claims to be building weapons and that Madam X is the “Ultimate Weapon”. Though she adds that she's not interested in the machinations of the Rumble Rose Organization, only in furthering her own research. In the second game, she's portrayed largely as just another wrestler, with the changes in the other fighters being (presumably) unrelated to her. She even forms a Tag Team with Benikage, called The Balance of Terror... Despite fact that the ninja still seems to hate her!
Personality
Anesthesia is sinister and cruel, displaying a callous disregard for others. During the original tournament, she seems to view the other fighters that she encounters not as people, but as future specimens for her research. Despite this obvious lack of concern for others, she is clearly aware of her own attractiveness and knows how use her sensuality to manipulate the audience. This is made obvious by her performance during her introduction to the wring.
