Vega's plotline and history for Street Fighter 4
Last updated on Jan. 18, 2009
The privileged Catalonian has an obsession with beauty and one hell of a dark streak.
Having studied both bullfighting and ninjutsu, Vega blended the two together, forming a quick, acrobatic combat style.
He began his wicked ways after witnessing the death of his mother at the hands of his stepfather.
Enraged, he murdered his stepfather. The incident left a huge imprint, changing Vega into a pitiless killer.
It is this characteristic, as well as his fighting abilities, that drew M. Bison to entice Vega to join Shadaloo.
Vega is the only fighter to keep a weapon with him at all times, using a claw to extend his reach and deliver slashing strikes.
His other accessory, a white mask, is used to protect his flawless face.

Anyone know the name of Vega's mother? Thanks

hold up - The SF2 Animated Movie is not canon, it's simply a cool piece of associated merchandise. It's never been said who defeated Vega in SF2, or even if he was defeated at all.
XenaWP - Vega's mother has never been cannonically listed. The only thing that's ever been noted about her is that she was exceptionally beautiful.
T - The mark on Vega's mask is simply a stylistic flourish, it's not a 'J'.

Meant to say 'Vega's mother's name has never been cannonically listed'.
Also, some versions of the backstory state that it was Vega's father and not his stepfather that murdered her. Like Ken's exact ethnic parentage, it varies a helluva lot and no specific exact cannon exists.
