Iori Yagami

Iori Yagami is a character from the SNK Playmore's The King of Fighters video game series that first appeared in The King of Fighters '95 as the leader of the Rivals Team.

He is an iconic character of the series, and regularly appears on publicity material and merchandise. Iori is a central character to the series' plot, and the initial enemy and eventual rival of Kyo Kusanagi. He was created specifically to become Kyo's rival as his name and abilities were designed to relate him with the Yamata no Orochi legend. The designers ended up liking him so much that they take care how his character is developed along the series.

In M.U.G.E.N, Iori Yagami has been made by several M.U.G.E.N creators, of which the one commonly used is made by ihoo1836.

Orochi Iori
Main article: Orochi Iori

 

Orochi Iori is a canonical alternate form of Iori Yagami. Being a member of the Yagami bloodline that made a pact with Orochi himself thousands of years ago, he can fall into a state of insanity - The Riot of the Blood - that can be triggered by being anywhere near the Eight Heads of Orochi (Hakkeshu).

A midboss character, he is faster and more powerful than regular Iori, but suffers from defense issues.
