Biography

Early life

Señor 105 was born circa the 1910s. (PROSE: Iris Wildthyme y Señor Cientocinco contra Los Monstruos del Fiesta ^[+]Loading...["Iris Wildthyme y Señor Cientocinco contra Los Monstruos del Fiesta (short story)"])

In his youth, he was taken in by the three most skilled wrestlers of Mexico: Tierra, Viento and Fuego. They trained him to be one of their own, but he decided that their ways were too mystical for him and chose to become independent with a scientific motif. Naming himself after the number of elements in the periodic table, he became "Señor 93". The first wrestling mask he created for himself was Number 93, Neptunium.

In the late 1940s, Señor 97 visited New York City and had an adventure which involved the construction of the United Nations headquarters. Diana Gulbronson remained in debt to the Señor for saving her life. (PROSE: Elementary, My Dear Sheila ^[+]Loading...["Elementary, My Dear Sheila (short story)"])

The 1960s

While he often left Mexico to have adventures across the globe (sometimes even traversing the Very Fabric of Time and Space using his home-made Zodiac Machine), Señor 105 always returned to his house in mid-20th century Mexico City.

By summer 1968, Señor 105 had met several Mexican presidents, visited the Eiffel Tower, went on a boat ride with Albert Einstein, and encountered UFOs, witches, werewolves, purple midgets, and "El Hombre Invisible".

On the day of the opening ceremony of the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City, Señor 105 met Iris Wildthyme and Panda while trying to stop an army of spirits possessing piñatas from disrupting the Olympics. While 105 wrestled Axixmiqui, the leader of the spirits, Iris manipulated the mathematical ratios involved in the dimensional doorway the spirits were creating. When the doorway was activated, the spirits were all sucked up into a mini-singularity. Afterwards, Señor 105 helped Iris repair her Celestial Omnibus and gave her a 1968 Olympics bracelet and the mask he made for titanium as parting gifts; using knowledge gaining from observing the workings of the omnibus, 105 was able to complete the Zodiac Machine.
