History[]
Before being converted into a Mutant Creature, Yukie Koriyama was a fortune teller who used her voodoo abilities to murder anyone who slighted her. Emperor Banba soon took notice of her powerful psionic abilities and approached her as she was trying to kill Gosaku Marume, offering her a spot in the Neo-Human Empire. Yukie refused but Banba kidnapped her by force and brought her to a Phantom Army lab, where he had his Neo-Human scientists experiment on her to convert her into the Mutant Robot Snow Banbara.
Snow Banbara was then sent to kill Inazuman, ambushing Goro while he was in Raijingo and freezing it, sending it off a cliff and seemingly killing him. Goro survived however and Banba sent her to finish the job. Snow Banbara attempted to kill Goro while he was resting in bed to recover from his injuries, but Goro soon revealed that he had intentionally posed as being injured in order to lure Snow Banbara out. Snow Banbara would then escape, but Gosaku remembered her human form as the fortune teller he had encountered earlier, allowing Goro to track her down. Yukie transformed into Snow Banbara to fight Goro, who transformed into Sanagiman to face her. Snow Banbara managed to successfully freeze Sanagiman, only for Sanagiman to at that point reach full power and transform into Inazuman. Inazuman would then defeat Snow Banbara by using his lighting to melt her body.
