======================

OVERVIEW:

Cana also fights aggressively with the purpose of overwhelming her opponent early on in the match to take them out. With an air projectile at her disposal she can do this much better than Reno, however her reflexes at recovery are not as quick as his though she makes up for it with stronger attacks and her secret technique “Nine-Tailed Seal.”

Her basic fighting style is Angel’s from KOF2002 whom she has also taken the looks of. Her weakness is that she doesn’t pace herself properly in a fight so a long drawn out duel maybe lead to a defeat, her “Nine-Tailed Seal” should be avoided and waited out as using it will drain her temporarily making her an easy target.

Yet beware, she is a very deceptive fighter as well.

Casual/Fighting 2: She wears a pair of loose baggy blue jeans held with a leather black belt that’s on low enough that you’ll catch a glimpse of a black two-piece bikini bottom. She has a black sports bra on underneath an open blue denim jacket and a pair of black leather, fingerless biker gloves. She wears a pair of white, low top sneakers.

Fighting: Standard regalia for Bison’s Dolls (See Juni/Juli.)
 

-STANCE-

She uses Angel’s stance from KOF 2001: both hands open and raised in front of her with two knees slightly bent.

-PERSONALITY-

Cana has a very mysterious aura about her, although when performing and talking to others she is quite casual and energetic. She usually seems like a blast to be around (especially in parties), but don't try getting her drunk as she can't because her metabolism burns it all away quite quickly! Like Reno she tends to taunt her opponents, but is not quite as vociferous. Her airy image has fooled many opponents before, but beware, inside she is very focused… like a predator.

Dancing: B

-STORYLINE-

There are three levels to this story.

First Level:

The mysterious and seductive bass and vocalist of “Sacred Edge” surprised many when she joined the world martial arts tournament with lead guitarist Reno Tseng as few knew she was capable of fighting. Is this perhaps a publicity stunt to bring their band out from the Independent scene onto the mainstream world?

Second Level:

M. Bison’s latest doll unit is also there to help the evil overlord in filtering out the weak from the strong so that his goals may be accomplished much sooner. She was also assigned to Reno Tseng to keep a watch on him because Shadowlaw does not completely trust him, she accepts the position due to the fact that she knows this places her in a better position to protect Reno from Shadowlaw or himself. She has a mysterious attraction to Reno that she can only describe as… instinct.

Third Level:

In the same supernatural environment after the thunder demon took over the clone’s body, a nine-tailed fox demon followed taking over the body of the doll unit. The two demons were what you could call comrades in the world of demons with common interests such as a fascination with life in the human world, when they saw the opportunity in the form of two empty bodies, they took it. Her memories survived the migration better than her comrade’s due to the genetic stability of her body which had been created so that perhaps M. Bison may one day migrate his own soul onto it, though it is not complete she has a better feel for the third level of their background than Reno (hence the fox theme in her moves.)

Due to this phenomenon Bison’s scientists have been unable to recreate the exact process of that fateful day.
