Wherever Elizébet goes, ancient nightmares long forgotten begin to be unleashed.

Story[]
Countless millenia ago, as the war between the twelve Divine Dragons against the evil deity Vigoor and its Archfiend descendants raged on, four Greater Fiend Rulers rose to power. They split the Underworld into four sections, each ruling over their own domain. Eventually, the tension between the Kings and Queen of Fiends evolved into fierce battle, that plunged the world into chaos. This infernal conflict drew the attention of the slumbering Archfiend Vazdah. Its horrible gaze alighted upon the great human philosopher Dagra Dai, transforming him in the High Infernal Priest who will command the four Greater Fiend Rulers. However, after a tens of thousands of generations long battle, the Dragon Lineage, ancestors of the Hayabusa Ninja Clan, sealed away the Archfiends and their spawn. Still, under unclear circumstances, Elizébet escaped her confinement in the hellish depths eventually.

Although never seen or mentioned during the Dark Dragon Blade Incident itself, it was later established that she made a pact with Ryu Hayabusa's uncle Murai.[1]

Concept Art
Long ago the Dragon Ninjas of old sealed her and her fellow Greater Fiends into a never ending sleep, until one day, she was awakened by Dagra Dai, the High Infernal Priest. Once awakened, she was tasked with the retrieval of the Jashinzou; the Demon Statue, guarded at all times by the Dragon Lineage. She approached the Black Spider Clan in hopes of gaining their services and makes Genshin, the Overlord of the Spider ninjas an offer he couldn't refuse: honour and glory for the destruction of the Hayabusa Ninja Clan, the modern descendants of the Dragon Lineage. After successfully stealing the Demon Statue from the Castle of the Dragon, Elizébet goes to South America, home of the Necromantale, and presents the newly empowered demon statue to Dagra Dai. She is then ordered to kill Ryu Hayabusa before he can interfere any further, and challenges him in her Fiendish form, but is defeated. She refuses to die and proclaims her return.

When Genshin lost to the Dragon Ninja at Mount Fuji's erupting summit, she resurrected him and turned him into a Fiend. She then mocked the Ninja Overlord when he lost to Ryu again, and challenged an angered Ryu in the Underworld. Despite her boosted powers in her fiend form, she was defeated by Ryu as he dual-wielded the Dragon Sword and the Blade of the Archfiend. As she let out an ear piercing scream, she solidified and crumbled to the ground.
