*The only other person who knew Victoria was a Joker was her aunty Talisa. Talisa would spend a lot a time with Tori and her mother, during the Marcus' early infant years. 
*Talisa would then devise a plan to send Tori to none other than Annie Reiss for protection, the two had been close due to the Reiss families political affiliations as the Kramer family.
*Talisa would act as if she was taking the two children on a trip to a gala in Acedia and fake their deaths, living away from her abusive husband and the wrath of Victor Steele. 
*The plot failed however, Raymond sent his men to hunt down Talisa after they mercilessly killed Alissa. 
*Before she was found, Talisa met with Benjamin Reiss Snr; who took the child to the Von Schwarz family and ally of the Reiss family who had been taking in Joker children as wards while other arrangements were made. 
===Ward of Black===
*Victoria was around the age of 6 when she was taken in by the Von Schwarz family. While they were not particularly abusive, they established clear distance from Victoria and the other ward, Keanu Torro.
*Victoria and Keanu essentially grew up as siblings, they would often play fight and train together under the strict Von Schwarz regime. 
*They never considered why they were training under a brought in Joker instructor in their young age.
*Victoria and Keanu were also close to the Von Schwarz heir, Sylvia. A young girl a few years younger than them.
*Slyvia would often sneak around the manor to talk to and play with both Tori and Keanu, though Tori would begin to grow into her own person.
*Slyvia and Keanu enjoyed the role of playing prince and princess, while Tori would spend her spare time outside of training sharpening her mind. She became obsessed with zoology and in particular the study of venom.
*This relationship continued for several years until one day the dynamic of the Joker wards within the Von Schwarz household took a turn for the worst.
*With Annie, Ben and Avery Reiss dead, the long game of the Von Schwarz family paid off and they were free to keep the Joker children hostage and essentially force them to be body guards and assassins. 
*Eventually the heads of the family discovered a relationship between Keanu and Sylvia resulting in the two Joker wards being sent to Kirchhoff.

She has demonstrated the ability to replenish stamina and even the aid in the replenishment of other Joker abilities.
====Corrosion Style====
Corrosion Style is a unique nature transformation kekkei tōta, a combination of earth, wind, and water. When in use, it grants Victoria's chakra a potent fast-acting corrosive property that violently deteriorates and wears at everything it comes into contact with. Because of the destructive property of the ability, it makes Victoria an Apex threat in both close quarter and ranged combat. 
*Corrosion Style: Mustard Trench: Victoria gathers chakra and air in her mouth and expels a large volume of Corrosion Style gas that burns flesh and lays waste to objects. It has demonstrated the ability to melt tough materials such as metal and concrete. When inhaled it can burn away at a person's insides and limit their repository capacity. 
**Corrosion Style: Mustard Shuriken / Great Mustard Demonwind Shuriken: Victoria can blow on her Shurikens causing them to rapidly spin in a violent flurry of corrosion chakra. Due to the corrosive nature, they eat away at the things they are thrown while continuing to rapidly spin.
**Corrosion Style: Mustard Fall: Tori can launch piercing bursts of concentrated chakra from her mouth that not only have piercing damage but splash damage as well. Upon contact they drill into any surface they touch as well as "burst", spreading the corrosive nature around the vicinity of the area of contact.

She then engages in open palm hand to hand contact, using the edges of hand as acid knives capable of slicing and burning everything she opts to cut.

**One Finger Acid Needle: Currently the most powerful variant of the Wither Fist, with closed palms and one finger up on each hand Victoria's cutting prowess increases ten-fold. 
***One Finger Acid Drill: By rotating her wrist as she thrusts forward a finger, Tori can deliver a devastating blow that lodges her corrosive finger deep into the body of her adversaries with its immense piercing power. 
====Summoning Technique====
Victoria was gifted the epithet Medusa from her ability to summon snakes from the seal on her scalp that is covered by hair. She displays an affinity for reptiles and is able to summon them quickly and efficiency without the use of hand signs, only intentional thought. The snakes from her hair come in a variety of different colors and sizes, she doesn't seem to have any sort of particular relationship with the snakes she summons from her hair. They have demonstrated the ability to administer the same medical jutsu that she uses, but also utilize senjutsu to administer the affects of Tori's poisons into either herself or other users. 
Victoria can use the traditional summoning techniques to summon a variety of more powerful poisonous creatures: 
*Toxel: Victoria has a partnership with a Toxel named Axel. Axel is a small, quadrupedal, purple, lizard-like Baby Pokémon. It is a dual-type, being that of electric and poison. Alex has a poison sac which it uses to store its poison and secretes the same poison through its skin. By manipulating the chemical makeup of this poison, it can produce electricity. Axel relays the electric poison through its skin. While the voltage produced by this electrified poison is weak, it can cause a tingling paralysis if touched. Axel has a bashful nature.
*Salandit: Victoria can also summon a Salandit named Sam a dual-type Poison/Fire Pokémon. From the marking at the base of its tail, it can emit both a toxic gas and flames. The gas is created by burning body fluids and has a sweet odor that causes dizziness. However, The female can also release pheromones that attract males of all species, including humans. Additionally, these pheromones may cause opponents to be controlled by this Pokémon's will.

===Senjutsu===
Victoria is capable of using natural energy; she (unlike many others who also use natural energy) is capable of retrieving it without the requirement of standing still. She does this by proxy of the snakes that she summons through her hair, they can wrap around Victoria and share their nature energy with her. Victoria applies the nature energy she gathers in combat by mixing it with her own chakra. This process is made apparent by the scale like texture that becomes visible on her neck. By releasing the combination of nature energy and her own chakra immediately, she is able to stop herself from transforming into a snake.
 
====Poison Style====
One way Tori expels the combination of natural energy and her chakra is through her Poison Style. Poison Style is a type of Senjutsu that gives Tori's chakra the properties that her poison inventory possesses, through this she can enact jutsu that not only physically damages her opponents but also infects them as well.
*Sage Art: Poison Style, Tears of Medusa: 
*Sage Art: Poison Style, Trojan Horse:
*Sage Art: Poison Style, Stitch Picker:
*Sage Art: Poison Style, Slow Chemical:
===Dōjutsu===
====Sharingan====
 With the Sharingan, Victoria can see the flow of chakra, accurately reproduce any movement she sees (her own physical skill permitting), track fast-moving objects, and predict opponents's movements. Tori can also use 'the dojutsu's Genjutsu for broad purposes such as distraction, interrogation, knocking targets out, or placing them under her control. She has shown to be able to use her Sharingan to relay information to others or enter their subconscious.
====Mangekyō Sharingan====
 Unbeknownst to her former masters, Tori awakened her Mangekyo Sharingan when it dawned on her that Benjamin Reiss Snr had died and she was likely to be a Von Schwarz captor for the rest of her life; this was around the age of 15. Though her time spent with Benjamin was short-lived she fondly remembered him as a kind soul and often daydreamed of a fantasy where he would come and save her from the hell of the Von Schwarz entrapment. Hearing of Ben Reiss' death was a great pain for Victoria and only plunged her deeper into her Curse of Hatred. Since awakening it however she has displayed symptoms of a mental block that prevents her from using it; this mental block comes from her teenage fear of the Von Schwarz discovering she had awakened the potent dojutsu and what they might do with her.

===Poison Inventory===
*Tears of Medusa: Tears of medusa, is a potent poison used by Victoria that she has been shown to administer through her senjutsu, snake summons and general weaponry. It takes the form of clear odorless liquid making it hard to detect before infection. The poison does not onset immediately, it is a very gradual process that can take up to a half hour to peak. It's main duty is to disturb precognition. The chemicals within the Tears of Medusa bind to receptors throughout the brain, many of which are focused in the amygdala. The amygdala is involved in emotional processing, governing responses such as fear, stress, and paranoia. When TOM acts upon the amygdala, it modifies the neural communication for the worse. TOM makes those it infects insanely paranoid; in regular humans it causes paralysis; some have even been known to die from high blood pressure. For those above regular humans however, it tricks the brain into reacting to it's own fears, precognitive sense is made useless by due the vivid hallucinations caused by the recipients own brain. They begin to react to what they think its going to happen or what they think they're seeing and not reality. The paranoia induced by the Tears of Medusa can cause the signals the brain sends to body to spiral out of control, causing muscle spasms and heavy jitters. 
*Trojan Horse: The Trojan Horse is a powerful poison. A chemical concoction of numerous substances and Mountain Ash, a rare substance used by the Dawnguard to counteract the abilities of supernaturals; the supernatural equivalent of Venom. The Trojan Horse, works in stages. First it will nullify a person's response to wounds, effectively shutting down an individuals natural regenerative healing factor; it will then spread throughout the body essentially causing it to turn on itself. The infected's antibodies will attack healthy tissue at a rapid rate effectively causing the bodies key functions to begin to shut down.
