Template:CharacterInfoboxElisabeth Blanctorche (エリザベート・ブラントルシュ, Erizabēto Burantorushu, is one of three original characters debuting in The King of Fighters XI. Her official nickname is The Controller of the white light (Template:FuriganaTemplate:FuriganaTemplate:FuriganaTemplate:Furigana, Shiroki Hikari no Michibikite).<ref>http://game.snk-corp.co.jp/official/kof-xiii/arcade/character/</ref>

Development

During the initial phases of The King of Fighters XI, the concept for Elisabeth was to present her as Ash's rival, but as planning for the character and her story proceeded, the idea of her more as a "guide" than a "rival" took shape. Her earlier design resembled a tougher modern-day equestrian including a short whip - they kept the whip as they liked the idea of short, quick movements. Developers also describe her fighting style as "orthodox with subtle tricks [to it]" despite her minimal moveset.<ref>Official character page from KOF anniversary website</ref>

Personality

She is a very serious and strict high class member of nobility. Once she has decided to do something, she'll do whatever it takes to get it done. Perhaps due to her upbringing, she doesn't find it urgent to always keep her promised meetings with her teammates of lower stature. Though she is the one who invites them to her dwelling, she arrives tardy and usually denounces them within a few moments of their conversation.

She fondly thinks of Ash as her younger brother, but she has since prepared herself to stop him at any costs. Elisabeth finds condolence with her pleasant, elderly butler, as he is the only one near her who knows the details of her past with Ash.
