Mistral

"And there he is now Jack the ripper... Your reputation proceeds you. A natural born killer, even as a child..."

- Mistral taunting Raiden

Mistral is a female cyborg member of Desperado Enforcement LLC. She is one of the Winds of Destruction alongside Sundowner and Monsoon, and is named after the dry northern winds that blow from the Alps to the Mediterranean. Mistral uses weapons called “Etrangers” in many ways such as whips and rods.

During the events of 2018, Mistral was assigned command of the Desperado forces that were aiding a military coup against the parliamentary government of Abkhazia. She later encountered Raiden at the Desperado's base of operations, a refinery plant located near the coastline. At first, she has her Dwarf Gekko fight Raiden, although they eventually fight on the rooftops. Eventually, their fight comes down to the main level of the plant. Raiden manages to disarm her of the Etranger, backing her into a corner where she is then doused in liquid nitrogen, freezing her and resulting in Raiden finishing her off.

Mistral has the ability to take the arms of Dwarf Gekko and attach them to her body, also using them as weapons.

Behind the scenes
Mistral's multiple arms give her a slight resemblance to Screaming Mantis.

Her many arms give her a similar appearance to many Hindu-Buddhist deities, such as Durga, Kali, and Asura.
