==Summary==
Virtua Fighter is a series of fighting games created by SEGA and designed by Yu Suzuki, introduced in October 1993. The original arcade game is often considered to be the grandfather of 3D fighting games such as Tekken and Dead or Alive, even having been credited for popularizing the usage of polygon-based 3D graphics and being a huge influence for the original PlayStation console's development, Tomb Raider and many others, all thanks to its groundbreaking animation at the time.
Unlike other fighting game franchises, Virtua Fighter makes use of a simplistic, grounded and semi-realistic system of combat without any special meters or supernatural elements, and multiple characters with various fighting styles/techniques that are all heavily based in real-world martial arts as they face each other inside an arena in a 3D environment.
Over the years, the franchise has received four main sequels, a few revisions and several spin-offs, even including various merchandise, soundtrack CDs, image song albums, a non-canon one-shot comic by Marvel Comics, a VF2 manga released by Shogakukan (with creative oversight from Sega AM2 to ensure the characters were portrayed consistently with their original vision) and a 35 episode-long anime television series which was produced by TV Tokyo, Yomiko Advertising and TMS Entertainment from October 2nd, 1995 to June 27th, 1996. Yu Suzuki's fellow creation, Shenmue also started as a Virtua Fighter RPG before it was retooled into a new game for the Dreamcast, with Ryo Hazuki taking Akira's role as the hero.
Virtua Fighter's characters has also made appearances in various games from SEGA and other companies, such as the SEGA All-Stars series and Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax, Bandai Namco's Project X Zone and it's sequel Project X Zone 2, Koei Tecmo's Dead or Alive 5 and Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. series (with Akira appearing as an Assist Trophy in Ultimate).
==Power of the Verse==
Coming from one of the most realistic fighting games, the verse's characters are around Wall level for being capable of surviving extreme pressures at the bottom of the ocean depths and breaking walls, railings, fences and stone lanterns with their attacks, besides Kage-Maru cutting through a tall, thick tree three times and throwing a shuriken hard enough to destroy an attack helicopter. They have Superhuman with Subsonic reaction speed for outspeeding cars, deflecting shurikens and outrunning flying throwing stars within a distance of an arena, while a lifting strength level is Class 1 for suplexing grizzly bears and lifting barbells with one hand.
Characters doesn't have much hax-wise, but they are all shown to be experts in Martial Arts and has access to a few other abilities like Acrobatics, Weapon Mastery, Stealth Mastery, Accelerated Development, Afterimage Creation, Self-Sustenance and Type 2 Underwater Breathing, while equipment allows for Flight (Kage-Maru's Ninja Kite and Sarah's Magic Broom), Energy Projection (Jacky's Sci-Fi Goggles and Sarah's Tension Blasters), Magic (Eileen's Magic Wand) and many others.
Being a brainwashed cyborg, Dural herself has Technique Mimicry for utilizing other fighters' movesets, can camouflage to blend in, float in the air, presumably change her skin appearance from metal to stone and recover herself from melting into a puddle.
