OROCHI
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Bio sheet unknown)
The Orochi has been considered an evil entity, and a messanger of the gods
to purify the world of the human race. Many fight against it, and many fight for
it. However, one thing is for sure: the Orochi posseses incredible power,
capable of vanquishing the human race with it's incredible powers.
The Orochi first appeared in the human world 1800 years ago, where it made
it's power feel in the world, beginning to cause destruction and death. The
world was enveloped in darkness until two clans, the Kusanagi (the sword that
seals), and the Yagami (the shield that holds) faced the Orochi, ready to
sacrifice their life to erradicate the entity. Despite the incredible and
devastating power displayed by the Orochi, the Yagami managed to keep it under
hold with their power, while the Kusanagi eliminated it by sending several
crimson flame blasts. Once defeated the Orochi power, the Clan of the Yata
imposed a seal on the Orochi power, never allowing it to be run amok in the
world once again.
However, Orochi planned it's revenge, and tempted the Yagami clan, which
were the more problematic clan. The Yagami thought it would be a good idea if
they had abit of the Orochi power, in order to have the upper hand on the
Kusanagi, whom everybody considered to be the more powerful clan. Then, the
Orochi and the Yagami dealed an unholy pact, and the Yagami were conceded a
portion of Orochi power into their blood, turning their crimson flames into
purple flames of destruction. Then, the Kusanagi objected, and then both clans
engaged into a war. This happened 660 years ago, and the Orochi saw with glee
how both clans, which had ruined it's plans, were now killing themselves.
The Orochi was kept sealed up until the year of 1986. There, one of the
Four Heavenly Kings of Orochi, Goenitz, killed the heir of the Clan of the Yata,
and broke the seal which was imposed on the Orochi power. Still weak and unable
to display it's full power, the Orochi seeked a new host for it's power, and
found it in the figure of a little child, a young Heavenly King named Chris. Not
long after the seal was broken, however, a man named Rugal Bernstein, who had
the evil ambition of being the most powerful man in the world, seeked to claim
the Orochi power for himself. Goenitz stopped him, however, and since Rugal was
so willing to see how powerful the Orochi was, he granted him a tiny part of
Orochi power. This, in 1995, was the reason why Rugal was destroyed: simple
mortals such as him just can not aspire to control such power as the Orochi.
However, Orochi was still awaiting to wake up, and Goenitz would take care
of this, by gathering fighting energy to strengthen the Orochi power. This
energy was taken from the battles in the King of Fighters tournament in 1996,
but Goenitz did not live enough to gather enough energy. His task was taken on
by the other three Heavenly Kings of Orochi by next year: Yashiro Nanakase,
Shermie, and the Orochi host, Chris. They accomplished their task after fighting
the warriors of the King of Fighters tournament. Then, Orochi awaked inside of
Chris' body, and took his new form: that of a spirited young man which reflected
the passionate battles that took place in the fights of the King of Fighters
tournament. Once again, Orochi regained it's whole power, and the world was once
again in grave danger. However, Orochi did not count on the union between the
Kusanagi and Yagami clans once again, represented by Kyo and Iori, and once
again managed to stop the Orochi, even when Orochi activated the Riot of Blood
in Iori's blood. Orochi was once again banned from this world, but by now, the
dimensions will remain pacific, as for Orochi every hundred years will be like
ten years for human, until the next time...
*Fun fact = Everybody and the cat must be of Orochi blood! As of last year, we
found out many bloodline members of Orochi, even including Ryuji Yamazaki of the
Fatal Fury series! Now, who will be an Orochi next year? Not Athena??!
