History

The true origins of the Orochi fighter known as Shermie are shrouded in mystery. She, along with Yashiro Nanakase and Chris, entered the KOF '97 tournament. They originally formed a music band called "CYS" (based on the first letter of the name of each member), where Shermie played the keyboards. Later on in the tournament, it is revealed that Shermie was one of the Orochi heavenly kings alongside Goenitz. Their plan for entering the tournament was to gather enough power to resummon the Orochi from his seal. After gathering enough energy, Shermie and the rest of the New Face Team poured it all into Chris, who used it to make a startling transformation into the original Orochi. However, the resurrection was inturupted by Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami. Kyo proceeded to engage the Orochi in battle, but was blown away by his phenomenal power. Iori Yagami, and later Chizuru Kagura reunited with him in the fight, and the tables began to turn. Realizing his defeat was near, the Orochi used the last of his power to transform Iori into Orochi Iori. Believing his transformation would turn him against his teammates, the Orochi chuckled in triumph... until Iori grabbed him instead. Then, holding the Orochi in place, Iori told Kyo to finish him off. Kyo did so, and Chizu sealed the Orochi up. The Orochi fighters and Shermie, however, were never seen again.

The ending of the New Face Team in KOF '97 has Yashiro killing off both Shermie and Chris before committing suicide. It is believed that this ending, along with the fact that Yashiro and Shermie are willing to give their lives for the resurrection of the Orochi in the cinemas, reinforces the fact that the New Face Team most likely perished in this tournament.

Trivia

Orochi Shermie

Shermie appears as Clark's Another Striker in KOF 2000.
Shermie and Angel have the largest bust sizes of any female character in the KOF series, at 92 cm. This is larger than Mai Shiranui's 85 cm, and seconded only by Vice's and Elisabeth's 90 cm.
In KOF 2002, she can use a Hidden Super Desperation Move (HSDM) where she juggles her opponent a la wrestling, and finally knocks them down with an electric knee.
The electric knee attack returns in Neo Geo Battle Coliseum.
She appears as a cameo character in King of Fighters Maximum Impact 2 (KoF 2006 in the US).

Shermie's awakened form is called Heavenly Queen of the Ecstatic Lightning, making her a counterpart for Benimaru Nikaido.
Like other characters in King of Fighters 2002, Orochi Shermie is given a Hidden Super Desperation Move (HSDM), where she will call down a lightning bolt to strike the arena. However, this attack can be harmful to her, since the bolt can also strike her.
