A female being,
Dural is the main antagonist of the Virtua Fighter series. Dural is
a technological development from the Judgement 6 Syndicate which kidnapped
Sarah
and killed Kage's father. She was previously a human woman named Tsukikage. She
was a Kunoichi and Kage-Maru's mother.
When the mysterious corporation J6 (Judgement 6) noticed her exemplary fighting
ability and resilient body, they captured her and used her as their prototype
for their terrifying Dural project. Arming her body with various cybernetic
enhancements and brainwashing, she became a cyborg, immune to feeling. Her fighting technique comes
from a master who mastered all of the known martial arts. The Syndicate
which created and controls Dural organizes the World Fighting Tournament,
though why they do is still a mystery.

I think the original concept of
Dural was simply to show off Sega's 3D graphical capabilities back in the day...
and y'know, Dural was actually kinda cool back in the 90's, partly due to how
cool she looked in the game. Dural was a pretty cool boss in VF2, but
primarily because you fought against her underwater.
...However, there's no "stage" category in the character rating to the
right. ;) As a design, Dural never really developed. Dural has no personality,
no facial expressions, and an average moveset. A classic character for sure, but
not one of the better fighting game bosses out there. Also worth mentioning,
many fighting game bosses eventually become default selectable characters... but
not Dural. Perhaps that's for a reason? She would look very out of place on the VF
character selection screen. I think deep down, the VF dev-team also knows
Dural doesn't really fit in with the VF cast... but they've kept
her in the game for nostalgia reasons.
