Biography
Christie Monteiro (Japanese: クリスティ・モンテイロ, Hepburn: Kurisuti Monteiro)
Her grandfather was doing a long stint in prison. During a prison riot, he defended himself impressively by using the art of capoeira. He attracted the interest of a young Eddy Gordo, in prison under false charges. Eddy studied under Christie's grandfather for eight years in prison, becoming a master of capoeira.
Eddy sought Christie out after he returned from the third King of Iron Fist Tournament, and taught Christie for two years. Christie quickly picked up the art and became adept at it. Eddy disappeared shortly afterwards however, intent on pursuing revenge against his parents' murderers. Christie entered the fourth Iron Fist Tournament hoping to find him.
Christie's grandfather was eventually released from prison, but his time there had left him emaciated and weak. Christie rushed him to hospital, where she was told he had a terminal illness and would die within six months. The advanced technology of the Mishima Zaibatsu however gave her and Eddy a window of hope. They both entered the fifth Iron Fist Tournament to try and gain access to the scientific advances that might save him.
