Cammy White is a video game character in the Street Fighter series. She first appeared in the fighting game, Super Street Fighter II which was released in 1993, and is known by fans as the second SF female (after Chun-Li).

According to her official biography, Cammy was born on January 6, 1974, in an undisclosed location. She stands 164 cm (just under 5' 4") and weighs 46 kg (101 lbs). Her fighting style is a technique taught to Shadoloo elite.

History

Cammy's early history is unknown; her first appearance in the Street Fighter chronology is Street Fighter Alpha 3, where she is a soulless Doll sent to assassinate Dhalsim. Dhalsim makes her self-aware, and she realizes that Shadoloo is controlling her. M. Bison sends Vega to keep an eye on her. When he confronts her, he tells her that she is an "experiment" and is no longer needed. Vega intentionally lost to her, and she wondered why Shadoloo wants to destroy her, when she has never done anything against them. She later has to deal with Juli and Juni, two other Shadoloo Dolls. When she confronts Bison, he tells her that she was meant to become his next body, when his current one is destroyed by his Psycho Power. Cammy manages to break the twelve Dolls free from Shadoloo's mind control, and they confront Bison together. He tells Cammy that she is a clone, and that if he dies, she will die as well. Cammy fights against his psychic probing and rescues the Dolls from Bison's control with the Psycho Drive. Cammy gets the Dolls out the Shadoloo base and then falls unconscious. Vega rescues her before the base is destroyed, and deposits her on the doorstep of the British paramilitary organization Delta Red.

Cammy awakens with amnesia, and Delta Red takes her in. When the second World Warrior tournament is announced, and that Bison is part of it, Cammy feels a strange connection to him, and enters the tournament to find out. She confronts Bison, who tells her that she is a copy of him, that she killed for him, that he planted her in Delta Red (but didn't count on her losing her memories), and that he has no further use for her. After Bison is defeated, her Delta Red teammates tell her that she doesn't need to live in the past.

Trivia

Cammy in her Shadoloo incarnation.

• Cammy has undergone a lot of changes over her video game career. The picture above depicts her as of Super Street Fighter II and its reiterations (this incarnation is known as "Delta Red Cammy"). In X-Men vs. Street Fighter, she reappeared in a blue leotard, and a win pose showed her saluting M. Bison (this incarnation is known as "Shadoloo Cammy"). Her only other canonical appearance is Street Fighter Alpha 3.

• Cammy also appeared in Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold (via a code), Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Capcom vs. SNK, Capcom vs. SNK 2 and Namco x Capcom. For those games, she appeared in her Shadoloo outfit much to the discontent of her fans. She starred in a Capcom/Psikyo game named after a signature move of hers, Cannon Spike in 2000. In Cannon Spike, she was brought in to stop an elite group of terrorists in the future.

• She appeared in the 1994 movie Street Fighter, portrayed by Kylie Minogue.

• In Cannon Spike, she is 21 years old and wearing an outfit similar to her SSF2 incarnation, except she has kneepads and rollerblades, as well as a pair of machine guns.

• Official screenshots of an early version of Super Street Fighter II for the SNES showed Cammy wearing tights under her outfit. Due to its revealing nature, these tights didn't make it into the final version of the game.

• For an unknown reason, Cammy fights in Greece in Street Fighter Alpha 3. In earlier games Cammy fought in England.
