Ring of Honor wrestler Athena debuted some striking new ring gear inspired by Karlach from Baldur’s Gate 3<\/a> during the most recent Supercard of Honor event.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

Fans of Baldur’s Gate 3, Larian Studios’ latest video game based on the Dungeons & Dragons tabletop role playing game, went wild for Athena’s epic entrance, with those in the crowd and watching at home commending her Karlach-inspired outfit, which came complete with the iconic character’s twisty horns and signature axe.<\/p>\n

Oh wow \ud83e\udd70\u2764\ufe0f\u200d\ud83d\udd25\ud83e\udd70\u2764\ufe0f\u200d\ud83d\udd25\ud83e\udd70<\/p>\n

Congratulations to real-life Karlach @athenapalmer_fg<\/a> on retaining her title!!! https:\/\/t.co\/G4UFGKBVg6<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/AdHUfstq7s<\/a><\/p>\n

Even Samantha B\u00e9art, who provided the voice and motion capture for the game’s beloved barbarian, reposted a video of Athena’s arrival and gave her a shoutout. “Oh wow,” B\u00e9art wrote on X\/Twitter<\/a> alongside some heart emojis and a gif of the fan-favorite character. “Congratulations to real-life Karlach, Athena, on retaining her title!”<\/p>\n

Those on Reddit were also impressed with Athena’s efforts. “Oh wow, this works on so many levels,” one person wrote<\/a> in a thread dedicated to the wrestler’s new gear. Another added<\/a>: “This is the mashup I needed this year,” concurring with the original poster, who wrote<\/a>: “It’s cool to see some Baldur’s Gate 3 representation in wrestling.”<\/p>\n

Karlach<\/a> is a tiefling<\/a> barbarian<\/a> in Baldur’s Gate 3 who seeks revenge on the man who sold her to an archdevil when she was young. She often channels her rage into ferocious attacks while also surviving vicious strikes from others, making her a particularly fierce fighter (and certainly one who would be formidable in a wrestling ring).<\/p>\n
