About
Background
Fifteen years prior to the story, Scarlet met Funny Valentine at a house party in her hometown. The two danced together, which is when she discovered he could walk without making footsteps and play Mozart on a mandolin with his feet. Coupled with this, she fell in love with his sharp, but warm-hearted personality.
Steel Ball Run
Being attracted to women, she was seduced by Lucy Steel in their first encounter when Lucy provoked her. She invites Lucy into the house and attempts to have Lucy sit on her face, but eventually falls asleep after being drugged. When she awoke, she discovered Lucy's true intentions and pursued her, but was easily dispatched by Hot Pants. Once disposed, Lucy escaped successfully by disguising as her with the help of Hot Pants who also faked Lucy's death using Scarlet's corpse which she was killed by Tubular Bells.
