Biography
Mesut De Priest was born in the country of Al-Hakkar, but grew up in a very sheltered home in Hiro City. His father, Ghazanfar De Priest, was a commander during the wars in Al-Hakkar, and had married Mesut's mother, an American named Nellie Wikowski.

During his childhood, Mesut was trained in fencing, fighting, acrobatics by Jalal De Priest, his older half-brother. Jalal held many scars from the wars in Al-Hakkar (which he was old enough to remember) and felt that he and his younger brother needed to be prepared for war. Because of this, he began studying guns and firepower and secretly collected a large personal arsenal. Mesut, unwilling to share his brother's obsession, turned his attention to swordplay and was quickly an expert.

After his father and mother divorced and his father moved back to Al-Hakkar, Mesut decided to stay with his mother in Hiro City while his brother moved to Al-Hakkar. Seeing his mother slowly slide into depression, Mesut began using his skills to steal and cheat money in order to help them live.

Only a year after his father left, Mesut's mother committed suicide, leaving him alone. Her last wish was for him to do good in the world. Following her wishes, he became Victory Blue and dedicated his life to fighting evil.

Powers/Abilities
Victory Blue has no "superhuman" abilities, but his knowledge and use of bladed weapons is second to none. His is uniquely willing to put himself in danger, implying that he doesn't feel pain (this is unconfirmed).

Ops. Notes
Victory Blue is a true hero, and has done a lot of good in Hiro City with Poison Youth. His relationship with the war criminal known as Shaitan is a concern, however. It is unknown whether he maintains contact, but he needs to be closely monitored.
