Story
Vega was born to a privileged Spanish family in Catalonia. For reasons undisclosed, their status dwindled, causing Vega’s mother to remarry for financial security. As he matured, Vega studied bullfighting, a cultural tradition. Afterward, he went to Japan and learned Ninjutsu, a style he believed meshed well with his natural grace and agility. Combining Bullfighting with Ninjutsu, Vega went into an underground cage fighting circuit, and quickly became one of the best. When his ugly stepfather murdered his beautiful mother because he felt she did not respect him, Vega snapped and started killing ugly people for fun using three-pronged wrist-mounted claw beginning with his stepfather.
Due to Vega’s superb fighting ability and remorseless nature, the criminal leader known as M. Bisoninstated Vega as one of his three personal grand master bodyguards in the Shadaloo organization. Vega oversaw assassination operations for Shadaloo as well, and was associated with Cammy and the Shadaloo assassins known as The Dolls. Despite his savage and brutal fighting ability, Vega failed to protect Bison’s secret Psycho Drive project.
It is unknown what Vega has been doing since the fall of Shadaloo, although it’s assumed he still continues his murderous rampages or has been arrested and sent to prison for his crimes. He is also rumored to have returned to bullfighting. He returns in Street Fighter IV, being re-recruited by Shadaloo; an offer he quickly accepts. Since then, he returns to his job as Shadaloo assassin, assisting Bison in his attack on Seth’s SIN organization, stealing valuable data, and attempting to kill Chun-Li by setting off the fire alarm, which releases a toxic, fire-retardant spray.
