## History

One of the Hakkesshu, Vice joined forces with fellow Hakkesshu,
Mature so as to serve their master, Orochi. The two often took orders from the
superior Hakkesshu and one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Orochi, Goenitz,
though she didn't like him. Goenitz ordered her and Mature to keep tabs on
Rugal Bernstein; a man who desired to wield Orochi's power and had been granted
some by Goenitz. They posed as his secretaries to keep a close eye on him and
kill him if required. When Rugal kidnapped Saisyu Kusanagi at some point during
or before The King of Fighters 1995, Vice was ordered to brainwash him. She
succeeded, though not without difficulty due to his resistance to the process,
for which she developed a grudge against him.

After Rugal died at the end of the KOF '95 from being unable
to contain the Orochi power, Vice and Mature's duties were switched to keeping
an eye on Iori Yagami instead, due to his Yagami heritage of the Orochi power.
They were to bring him to the King of Fighters 1996 tournament. At the
tournaments conclusion, Goenitz arrived and their identities were revealed.
When Goenitz was defeated by the combined efforts of Kyo Kusanagi and Iori,
Vice and Mature were called upon by Goenitz to help. However, the two betrayed
him, deciding to use Iori to attempt to awaken Orochi, having liked his company
and hated Goenitz all this time. Their plan backfired however, as with
Goenitz's vengeful warning before passing away, Iori entered the Riot of the Blood and the two discovered he was unable to control the Orochi power. Before
the two could do anything, they are killed by him. Although dead, the two can
take the form of solid shadows in the living realm.

The two continued to haunt Iori in his dreams and eventually
revealed themselves to still exist in the mortal realm before the beginning of
The King of Fighters 13. Claiming to not hold a grudge against him, they
agree to entertain themselves as his teammates in the latest tournament. The
women want to prevent Orochi's power from being stolen by Ash or Those from the Past and convince Iori to join with the lure of confronting Ash.

After the climax of the KOF XIII tournament, Iori's magatama
returns to his possession and the weakened Orochi seal begins to strengthen
itself once more. She and Mature ask if he truly wants to accept the magatama
and the Orochi blood once more, offering him a final chance to completely
eradicate the cursed fate from his bloodline. When Iori refuses their offer,
the women fade away. They state they will meet him again in his dreams.
