Dirty Details Done Dirt Cheap:
Vega is widely known as the "Spanish Ninja" for employing a unique fighting style that mixes Spanish bullfighting (which he studied while growing up) with Ninjutsu (which he studied during his time in Japan). He took this fighting style to the underground cage fighting circuit and quickly became one of the scene's best and most popular warriors. Vega is haunted by the memory of his stepfather murdering his mother; after slaying his stepfather in vengeance, Vega developed a split personality - that of both a Spanish nobleman and a cold-blooded killer. Known for his extreme vanity, Vega is immediately recognizable by his intimidating mask and deadly talon weapons.
