Iori Yagami is a descendant of the Yasakani clan, a cursed lineage that, 1800 years ago, sold the Orochi gods alongside the Kusanagi and Yata clans. For a pact of blood with Orochi, the Yasakani gained forbidden powers and were called Yagami, but they also suffered a curse that forced them to fight until their death and gave them a berserker power called «Blood Disorder». The rivalry between the Kusanagi and Yagami clans intensified after the murder of the Yasakani leader's wife, for which the Kusanagi were blamed. As a result, Iori grew up with a deep hatred for the Kusanagi clan and became obsessed with defeating Kyo Kusanagi, the heir of that clan. Origin and curse Pact of Blood: About 1800 years ago, the Kusanagi, Yata and Yasakani clans came together to seal Orochi. However, Orochi's followers managed to weaken the seal and uncover discord between the clans, which led to a conflict. Vengeance and power: To revenge the Kusanagi, the Yasakani clan has a pact of blood with Orochi, obtaining forbidden powers at the expense of a curse: their calls turn purple, the hereders die young and the mothers die before giving birth. Clan Yagami: After the pact, the Yasakani changed their name to Yagami, and the rivalry between them and the Kusanagi was consolidated. Rivalry with Kyo Kusanagi Obsession: Iori's obsession with Kyo is that of a rival who must overcome him to free himself from the curse that torments him. Blood Disorder: In the game The King of Fighters '97, Iori falls into the «Blood Disorder», a state of uncontrolled fury that forces him to attack everyone who is close to him. Help to rival: Despite his enemy, Iori has sometimes collaborated with Kyo to defeat common enemies, as in the Orochi saga. Loss of power: Iori lost his powers in The King of Fighters XI due to Ash Crimson, which caused an identity crisis. Appearance and personality

Iori Yagami's main enemy and rival is Kyo Kusanagi.

Historical origin: The Kusanagi and Yasakani clans were sealed to Orochi many years ago. The current enemy between Kyo and Iori comes from the revenge of the Yasakani clan, which created a pact with Orochi to obtain prohibited powers and avenge an attack provoked by an emissary of Orochi who now passes for a member of the Kusanagi clan. Constant Enemy: Despite their rivalry, they are sometimes forced to fight together against common enemies, such as Orochi himself and other antagonists. Other influences: In addition to Kyo, Iori can also have other enemies depending on the delivery of the saga, but the main rivalry is with Kyo Kusanagi.
