| ~ Imperator Furiosa, upon killing Immortan Joe |
Imperator Furiosa is the deuteragonist of Mad Max: Fury Road. She is a soldier under Immortan Joe who betrays him in order to free "The Five Wives", who are his female sex slaves and concubines. She meets Max Rockatansky during her journey, and despite initial hostility, the two become allies and team up to drive The Five Wives to a safe environment called The Green Place.
She is portrayed by Charlize Theron.
History
Born in a fertile land known as the Green Place. She was a daughter of Mary Jo Bassa and one of the Vuvalini of Many Mothers. Her initiating mother was Katie (or K.T.) Concannon and she was part of the Swaddle Dog clan. Furiosa was kidnapped for at least 7000 days presumably by Immortan Joe and his men while her mother died 3 days after the abduction. She also has one arm, it is unknown if she lost it before the events of Fury Road or she was born without it.
She later escaped Joe as an Imperator and secretly rescues his wives and drives the War Rig to return to the Green Place. However, once she meets the Vuvalini, she learns that the Green Place was a swamp. Later, Max decides to help her by returning back to the Citadel, and during the final battle, she is severely wounded by one of Immortan Joe's War Boys.
However, after Max defeats Rictus, Immortan Joe's son and right-hand man, Furiosa manages to reach Joe's car and kills Joe by violently ripping his mask apart while saying, "Remember me?". She later survives with a blood transfusion by Max and rules over the Citadel after Joe's death.
