Malin is a shortform
for Magdalena which means "woman from Magdala." Malin (not her true name)
is an
enigmatic girl from an unknown organization that specializes in gathering
intelligence. Since Athena
and Hinako
refuse to team with someone they hardly met, she expertly steals the ribbons
from their hair and leaves a calling card around Hinako's ribbon. She
apparently orchestrates the Anti-Kyokugenryu Team in The King of Fighters
XI due to her animosity towards one of the style's practitioners, Yuri
Sakazaki, who called Malin's fighting style "cowardly". Thanks
to her expertise in espionage, she usually leads the effort to spy on the
Kyokugenryu Karate practitioners. In their team's ending in XI, Malin
has arranged for a fight against the Kyokugen practitioners, only to be
knocked out by an enraged King later on.
She, or at least
someone with her name, has been previously mentioned in the series as a member
of Athena's fan club. She was on good terms with the White Tiger. Supposedly,
members of her organization also assault Mai,
King, and Mary in 2003
for an unexplained reason. Malin covered the bill for their replacement hot
dogs since their last ones were ruined during the attack. Malin uses a range of weapons, most of them illegal.
