Personality
Story
Street Fighter EX series
Background
Sharon was entrusted to a monastery when she was still an infant. As she grew up, Sharon began leading a double life, working as an A-Class agent for a secret intelligence organization, as well as a nun raising orphans at the monastery she was raised at. Having never known her true parents, Sharon spent everyday wondering who they were and whatever happened to them.
One day, Sharon's superiors gave her orders to assassinate a certain individual from a neighboring country. While investigating the crime syndicate her target belonged to, she learned that one of the group's key member has the same rose tattoo she has on her chest. Sharon decided to disregard her duty and infiltrated the syndicate to ascertain the identity of this individual and whether or not the person was related to her. While chasing the person with the rose tattoo, she approached the mastermind of the organization. However, she was unable to capture either. The person with the rose tattoo had the same abilities and fighting style Sharon had, managing to overpower her.
For insubordination against her organization, as well as defying her monastery's commandment on pursuing personal vendettas, Sharon was placed on house arrest for a month. After serving her sentence, Sharon went on to continue her search for the person with the rose tattoo.
Endings
Street Fighter EX2
Sharon defied her vow as a nun to avoid personal struggles, as well as her orders from the intelligence agency, just so she could pursue the person with the rose tattoo that she's been single-handlely searching for.
However, the ringleader has already escaped to another place. "The tatoo is proof of a traditional ability. If that person has the same fighting method then means..."
She is placed on house arrest, completing her sentence more than a month later.
"It won't be easy to break away the brainwashing. But I know I can do it. Until the day my mother returns."
Street Fighter EX2 Plus
The battle has ended for now. Sharon stood still, as a man of unmeasurable value lied at the far end of the stretched scene.
"There's no turning back now. I..."
Street Fighter EX3
Sharon commands, "I need more information. I need to know the truth!" Suddenly Sharon hears a voice behind her, "You look alike your mother..." As Sharon turns to face the strange voice, she feels an acute pain on the back of her head. As he faints she whispers "You are..."

Super Combos
Throughout the EX series as explained below, Sharon's Super Combos involves her to use firearms and she has the most Super Combos aside from her Meteor Combo with a total of four.
Her first Super Combo is Load where Sharon loads her handgun and a bullet symbol will show at the bottom of the screen. She is still able to attack normally and she is seen holding the pistol the entire time while utilizing both punches and kicks. Her second Super Combo is Hellfire where she fires a single shot of her handgun after using Load. In Fighting EX Layer, her Hellfire now has two variations as explained above. Her third Super Combo is the Shuttle Combination where Sharon thrusts her opponent in the air, and follows up with a series of blows before grabbing them mid-air and driving them to the ground face first. Her fourth Super Combo is the Sharon Special as Sharon performs a launching knee attack, and then juggles the opponent with a series of two kicks and ends with a Half Moon Kick. In Fighting EX Layer, it is now a series of three kicks while a quick pace. Her Meteor Combo is the Assault Rifle and like both Load and Hellfire Super Combos, Sharon will hit a single shot with her sniper rifle dealing massive damage on her opponent.
