Elisabeth is the
last known remaining Blanctorche, a French family who use the strange combat style called Shining
Fists and supposedly protect the innocent. Ash
Crimson was a childhood friend of hers, as they were raised in the same
mansion together. Elisabeth used to be his older sister figure, until a
mysterious fire burned down the mansion and many of her clan members were
killed. As the last Blanctorche, she lives near the remains of her family's home
with her butler, Jacques.
She invited Benimaru
Nikaido and Duo Lon to France to
reveal that she knows of the betrayal of Ron and the burning of the Hizoku
village. They inform her of Ash's theft of Chizuru's
mirror and she decides to join them. With the trio banded with the interest to
take down Ash, they form the Rival Team and she eventually scolds Ash for
seeming to forsake their mission. Though surprised by the youth's new powers,
she swears to stop him in her team's ending.
Before meeting with Duo
Lon and Shen Woo, she
revisits the burned down mansion where she and Ash spent their childhood with a
handful of photographs from the area in her hand. During her meeting with her
guests, she becomes aware of their intents to join the King of Fighters
tournament with her and Ash's location in Paris. Although she just missed him,
Elisabeth knows that he was there and fortifies her will to stop him. She
reunites with Ash in the final act of the tournament only moments after Ash
erases Saiki from existence. She yells her protest to his selfish decision,
stating that she wanted to bring Ash back home with her. When he disappears with
his apologies, Elisabeth mourns over the only memento he left behind: his
headband.
