About Vega
Vega is one of the bosses in the Street Fighter series. Born into a privileged family in Spain, Vega studied bullfighting and later traveled to Japan for training in ninjutsu. Eventually, Vega made his way into the underground fighting circuit, where he quickly established himself as a contender to be respected.
When his stepfather murdered his mother, Vega killed the man in retaliation. This opened the floodgates on Vega's darker side and he drew the attention of M. Bison, who recruited him as an elite bodyguard in the Shadaloo organization. Vega has not been seen since the collapse of Shadaloo.
Vega is extremely narcissistic and values his physical beauty above all else. He is naturally graceful and agile, further increasing his arrogance. To protect his face from scarring, he wears a face mask in battle and removes it afterward for victory poses.Street Fighter Wiki: Vega Official Site: Street Fighter IV Vega
