History
Dead or Alive 3
Christie is an assassin hired by Donovan to keep an eye on, and eventually kill, Helena Douglas. Christie's mission is to stop Helena from competing in DOA3 and later to prevent Helena from discovering more about the secret plans of Donovan and his anti-Douglas faction.
Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball
Christie was invited to Zack Island for the fourth Dead or Alive Tournament. However, the tournament was a hoax and Christie (together with the other DOA girls) were stuck on the tropical island for two weeks.
Dead or Alive 4
Christie seeks to prevent the Mugen Tenshin clan (this includes Kasumi, Hayate and Ayane) and their ally Ryu Hayabusa from destroying DOATEC. It is also revealed that she was the assassin who killed Helena's Mother.
Personality
Above all, Christie is cold and callous towards others. As a result of her profession (as well as her outlook on life), she regards other people to be utterly disposable and meaningless. She takes her job seriously, and is completely ruthless when engaged in a mission. Also, due to the mastery of her art, she is arrogant, taunting her opponents before and after battle, as well as being completly confident in the fact that her fighting style is superior to that of any opponent. As her ending CG in Dead or Alive 4 shows, Christie is a bit of a femme fatale and is not afraid to use her good looks to lure her victim in a false sense of security.
Gameplay
Image:Christie.jpeg Christie is a refined speed and strike character. Her "picks" are excellent at infringing stun status at an enemy, and her low to mid game is astounding. Her throws and counters, however, lack power and priority, and her tiger knee and air-juggling game leaves to be much desired. However, her almost non-exisistant recovery rate and pressure attacks (such as the Ren-Soja-Dako and combos such as P+K, u+K, P,P,d+P,P, P,P,P,P,P) make up for these.
