Rose is a video game character from the Street Fighter series, first appearing in Street Fighter Alpha. She is an Italian fortune teller who wields a mysterious form of energy known as Soul Power. Rose is a serene, respectful, intelligent, and independent woman who muses quite a lot on destiny and fate. Wise and sophisticated, she is not prone to anger easily, and has a very calm demeanor, even in battle. She states that power is nothing without skill and that she must continue on her path, even if it means to give up her life for the greater good. Rose seems to fancy herself a teacher of sorts, many of her win quotes and mid-round quotes, like "Today's lesson is over", seem to imply this.
