Rachel (Dead or Alive)

Rachel is a fiend hunter from the Holy Vigoor Empire. Cursed by her demonic fiend heritage, Rachel's life goal is to hunt down and destroy all demons in existence. She met Ryu Hayabusa while on a crusade to slay her own twin sister, whose fiend blood had corrupted her human side. With Hayabusa's aid, she was able to accomplish her heartbreaking goal and the two have been close friends ever since.

Name: Rachel Species: Human (Mixed with fiend genes) Gender: Female Height: 172 cm Weight: 59 kg Age: Unknown Measurements: B96 W60 H92 Martial arts: Counter Fiend Combat Place of birth: Holy Vigoor Empire Nationality: Vigoorian Birthdate: June 14 Personal alignment: Good Current occupations: Fiend hunter Hobbies: Swimming Favourite food: Cocktails Birthstone: Pearl Birthflower: Rose Zodiac sign: Gemini Birthfruit: Cherry Friends: Ryu Hayabusa, Ayane, Momiji Rachel is a tall statuesque woman with fair skin, golden blonde hair, light blue eyes and a curvaceous and buxom figure. She primarily wears her hair pulled in a loose updo style ponytail, with some hair wrapped around the remaining hair that falls loosely, her hair is center parted and she has sidelocks that frame her face. She has notably full lips that she adorns with darkish red lipstick.

She wears a black leotard that exposes her cleavage and navel area, matching gloves, leather boots with poleyns and studded leg bands, a pair of belts with a sword secured to one, a red-and-black rerebrace, a pair of dangle earrings, and a metal headband. Rachel is a battle hardened warrior who is determined to hunt down and kill all demons. Though she feels the need to put on a tough face when dealing with people, she is a kind, generous and loyal soul whose only wish is to help people. Her cursed lineage has caused her to become a fiend hunter, but she truly fights to protect others. On a similar note, she also attempts to avoid killing any humans short of fiends, as implied by her motives to join the fifth and sixth Dead or Alive tournaments where she participates more to test her hand to hand abilities.

In combat, Rachel is very aggressive and confident in her abilities, telling her opponent she'll make sure they'll regret fighting her. During combat she talks down to her opponent, calling them pathetic, weak, or even yelling for them to die during certain throws. Her confidence is also reflected in her posture and movements, as she will often place one hand on her hip, indicating a relaxed and unfazed attitude. She can be quite patronizing towards her human foes, who she views as weaker than her part-fiend self. In her taunts she shrugs as she asks if they're tired already or remarks that they're "just a human after all..." She will also express disdain for her opponent's strength during certain hi-counter holds.

After a fight she seems somewhat more respectful as she comments "Not too bad", although it's unclear whether she's referring to her opponent's abilities or her own performance. She may also say they're pretty good "for a human" although she clearly doesn't expect too much from humans, with the exception perhaps of the highly trained "super ninja" Ryu Hayabusa (who, like Rachel, is not exactly entirely human). As of Dead or Alive 6, she also sometimes will thank her opponent for a satisfying fight if they are a ninja or if they happen to be a special guest character from a different series, like Mai and Kula, who hail from The King of Fighters. She on occasion also asks if they're stronger than a Fiend. Rachel uses the Counter Fiend Combat style, where she uses heavy blows at her opponents. These heavy blows were trained to kill fiends.

Rachel's blood curse endows her with superhuman strength and an innate ability to sense the presence of fiends.

When she's hunting fiends, she uses hammers as her weapons. She is also skilled in the Magical Arts, making use of two spells: the Blades of Oroborous, and Magic of the Raging Aphrodite. </Martial arts style>
