Background/History: The true origins of the criminal mastermind known as M. Bison are shrouded in mystery. It is thought he started out as a Soviet agent operating in Southeast Asia. Eventually, he rose to a position of power in the nation of Thailand, staging a military coup and becoming dictator for a short period of time. His rule was short-lived however, and two years later he fled Thailand to the small island of Mriganka.
There Bison renewed his association with the criminal organization known as Shadoloo, and used its resources to back several of his plans. During this time, workers found a cave that exhibited a strong radioactive signature. Bison, hoping for a commercial exploitable resource, investigated personally. When he finally returned, he was alone. All the other workers had been killed. Bison was also charged with "Psycho-Power," a powerful psychic energy that allowed him to perform amazing supernatural feats.
Equipped with his new powers and abilities, Bison quickly took control of Shadoloo, and was able to influence certain world leaders into having Mriganka declared a separate and independent nation. There he built Shadoloo into a worldwide crime organization, and slowly has begun to put into motion plans to control the world.
Personality/Motivation: M. Bison has an insatiable lust for power, as well as the overwhelming desire to control everything. He wants to be able to control all forms of power, be it political, economic, or mystical. His desire is to rule the world, thus being able to dominate anyone and everyone, and remake the world into his own image.
In addition to his desire for control, Bison is obsessed with finding and gathering items of mystical power. This includes a wide variety of man-made artifacts as well as mystical sites and other objects.
Finally, Bison's desire for power and his megalomania have made him into a brutal sadist. He enjoys manipulating others and likes the idea of being able to control a person's every move. By crushing the spirits and wills of others, his mastery is confirmed.
Quotes: “Fear and respect... the supreme energy that is Psycho Power!”
“I'm happy you are alive. You are still capable of feeling pain.”
“If you wish to live, make your vow of servitude to me... Now!”
“What strikes horror into your heart, is simply humor to me.”
Powers/Tactics: Bison's physic prowess is astounding, as is his mental powers. He is very strong, fast, and powerful, with a genius-level IQ and an indomitable will. He is also the one master of his own self-created martial arts style of "Le Drit," which combines elements from Soviet special forces techniques, strong jumps, and select psychic powers to form a brutal combat art.
Along with his martial prowess, Bison possess incredible psychic powers. This "Psycho-Power" allows him to do the following: control minds; read minds; fly through the air surrounded by a damaging aura of psychic power; reduce a target's mental state to that of a mindless berserker; and drain a target's will power. He can also channel his Psycho-Power into a blue crackling aura, which helps to increase the damage his blows do in combat.
On top of all this, M. Bison is the ruler and dictator of Mriganka, as well as of Shadoloo. He has turned Mriganka into an virtual island fortress, and has scores of agents scattered across the world. Many of these agents have unique talents of their own, and the likes of Balrog, Sagat, and Vega only scratch the surface.
Appearance: Bison is tall and very broad, with a well-muscled build. His hair is black and kept cropped very short, while his eyes burn blue with restrained Psycho-Power. He has a somewhat handsome, if brutal face, with a large, thick chin. Bison dresses in a red uniform modeled after certain Soviet military uniforms. Armored shoulder plates, armored boots and a long cape complete the outfit.
Designer's Notes: M. Bison was originally named "Vega." He became Bison in a complex name swap to avoid any lawsuits when the game was exported to America.
More power variations of Bison are possible. Suggestions include: adding Energy Blasts, full Flight, Telekinesis, and Teleportation.
