Chris/Story

=The King of Fighters series=

The King of Fighters '97


His true origin is shrouded in mystery. At one point, he formed a rock band named C.Y.S. (consisting of the first letter in the name of each band member) with Yashiro Nanakase and Shermie, with him as the vocalist. He, along with Yashiro and Shermie, entered the King of Fighters 1997 to form the New Face Team by individually defeating and stealing the invitations of the qualified American Sports Team (Heavy D!, Lucky Glauber, and Brian Battler), having chosen to enter after the preliminaries were over. Their initial goal for entering the tournament was due to Yashiro's grudge and desire to get revenge on Iori Yagami, the leader of a rival band that had surpassed them in popularity.

As the tournament progressed, the Orochi blood within Chris and his friends awakened and they continued to gather power to resurrect Orochi. They also kidnapped Yuki as a sacrifice for Orochi to regain his full potential and triggered the Riot of the Blood within Iori and Leona via their own presence. Near the end of the tournament, both Yashiro and Shermie commit suicide in order to transfer their remaining energy into Chris and because of this, Orochi is able to return to the world while using Chris' body as the host, but Orochi itself is re-sealed again by the Three Sacred Treasures: Kyo, Iori, and Chizuru.

The King of Fighters XIV
Due to Verse's actions during the events of The King of Fighters XIV, Chris, along with Yashiro and Shermie have been brought back to life, despite Chris himself being Orochi's vessel. Unlike with Shermie and Yashiro, who gains memories of their Orochi heritage in their normal forms, Chris either does not know or disregards it.
