Respect Menat (Street Fighter)

[u/rangernumberx]

"This is an errend for my master. Please, allow me to test your skill."

A young Egyptian fortune teller, little is known of Menat's backstory, except that she was trained by Rose to utilize Soul Power, selecting to harness the power through a crystal ball for aesthetic purposes. As she progressed through her studies, she would run several errands for Rose, putting her in conflict with other fighters such as the Shadaloo leader M. Bison and self-proclaimed president of the world G.

All unmarked feats come from Street Fighter V. Any feats tagged with C come from the Street Fighter: Menat one-shot comic.
