Street Fighter

Rufus' basic appearance is that of a tall, morbidly obese man with blond hair in a braided ponytail and a mustache and beard. He wears yellow and black jumpsuit and black short-necked combat boots.
Rufus is depicted as a large, heavily obese blond male. His head is mostly bald, with a long braided ponytail jutting from the top, and a mustache extending down the sides of his mouth to his chin. His clothing consists of a yellow and black sleeveless jumpsuit with padded shoulders, with the closing straps left open due to his girth and exposing the center of his torso and lower abdominal hair. Black shoes cover his feet, while black fingerless gloves cover his hands and most of his forearms. His secondary outfit is similar, changing the jumpsuit to a dark blue and green version with sleeves and a raised collar, additionally removing the gloves and changing his hairstyle to a double ponytail. Other alternate designs were considered but rejected, amongst which included an Elvis impersonator appearance and martial artist attire. Rufus stands 1.96 m (6 ft 5 in) tall, and weighs 185 kilograms (408 lb).
For Super Street Fighter IV , a third outfit intended to resemble the Chinese Jiang Shi was included, consisting of a long Chinese robe, black hat with his ponytail extruding from the top, yellow and black striped pants, and a yellow strip of paper meant to represent a sealing charm extending from the front of the hat and over his face.
The developers considered to have the charm able to be knocked off by an opponent's attacks, and as a result alter his attack patterns and power; however, they felt this overcomplicated the character, and instead abandoned the idea. Assistant producer Natsuki Shiozawa cited the outfit as one of her five favorites in the game, feeling that design suited his body well.
In his Shadaloo C.R.I. profile art, the colors of his outfit are switched (black and yellow), he has orange goggles on his head and yellow gloves.

Rufus is a loudmouthed, vituperative, and temperamental master of Kung-Fu, hailing from the U.S. Believing himself to be the strongest in America, he develops a personal hatred for Ken Masters, who carries that title officially. He notably tends to call Ken by his full name. He is often seen riding his motorcycle with his girlfriend, Candy , an attractive (but not very bright) brunette woman with a notably tacky fashion sense who seems to adore him and agree with his beliefs. Rufus is very combative, destructive, forceful, hasty, impatient, cantankerous, and quarrelsome, constantly jumping to conclusions to reach a goal, which often results in him sacrificing accuracy for speed. Rufus can be seen as Guile 's opposite in representing Americans: albeit both display very muscular builds, Guile is generally more intelligent, delighted, certain, positive, patriotic, satisfying, trustworthy, enthusiastic, chivalrous, and athletic, while Rufus is loud, obnoxious, and argumentative.
Rufus is prone to loudmouthed rambling, often spouting off at the mouth continuously until someone cuts him off. Said rambling is usually about trivial things he notices about the characters, doting over Candy, giving random anecdotes, or mistaking several members of the cast for Ken Masters. In fact, his win quotes are so long they're normally impossible to read completely before the game transitions to the next screen. He's also prone to saying whatever random thoughts come to his mind, regardless of how rude they are (i.e. asking Dhalsim if he is an alien because of his Yoga power, and then giving his personal view of aliens before Dhalsim cuts him off). Most of the other fighters object to his constant talking whenever they defeat him, with some people getting annoyed of how much he speaks (i.e. Fei Long says: " No need for words. In fact, shut up already, will ya? ").
Perhaps Rufus' most notable trait is his habit of mistaking certain characters for Ken (including Guile and Ryu ); this also extends to females (like Cammy ), and it also carries on in Street Fighter X Tekken .
Despite his goofy appearance and personality, he is a highly skilled and influential master of Kung-Fu, which even surprises several of the other characters. In fact, he actually gives some good advice to Fei Long in his win quote about being more calm and stoic in his movements while using Kung Fu instead of shouting with flashy moves (not that he practices it that much himself). He also seems to know quite a bit about sumo wrestling rules, and not just stereotypical rules, as he is the only one of three people (the others being Gouken and Dan ) that actively points out that sumo is done in the ring, and what E. Honda is doing is against the sumo code itself.
Rufus also attributes his skills and fighting prowess to 'Mojo' and 'Charisma', two things he believes are required of a good fighter and that he claims to have ample of. His intelligence is questionable because of his odd conclusions that he is quick to jump to; additionally, Rufus has a terrible sense of direction, but always somehow reaches his destinations regardless as seen with him reaching both the South and North Pole (" I can be both on the top and the bottom of the world! "). In spite of this, he does have good instincts and insights, making him akin to a boastful but well-meaning fellow: many of his compliments in his win quotes are based on qualities he believes he has that he sees others have too, such as Zangief (the closest thing to a friend he has, based on their partnership and banter in Street Fighter X Tekken ).


Street Fighter

Ryu's most recognizable attire consists of a white karate gi with the sleeves torn off, medium length hair, a long red headband, a black martial arts belt and bare feet (a choice he makes of his own, believing it to be more comfortable). In many of his appearances, Ryu carries around a large, white duffel bag containing items important to his travels, such as clothing, plane tickets, passports, and local currency.
In the first Street Fighter , Ryu wore a white headband and red shoes, one of the only times he wears shoes. Over the course of time, he has grown more muscular; his karate gi has grown more tattered, he stops wearing shoes, his gloves have changed from brown to red and his headband has changed from white to red. Most notably, his hair color has darkened over time; his original Street Fighter appearance gave him red hair, brown in Street Fighter Alpha , dark brown in Street Fighter II , and black in Street Fighter III , Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter V . In the Street Fighter III series, Ryu’s black hair has a blue tint. The red headband Ryu wears was originally worn by Ken . From Street Fighter IV onwards, the red gloves worn by Ryu have started to bear stylized writing, in the manner of a fictional brand name but also resembling the Fūrinkazan characters on his belt. It became his nostalgia costume in Street Fighter 6 . In TEPPEN , his gi shows noticeable wear and tear in places (with the left half of the jacket missing entirely), he has a few bandages wrapped around his arms, and his gloves have some extra padding.
In some official Street Fighter II artwork, Ryu's belt has four kanji emblazoned upon the right end: wind ( 風 , Kaze ? ) , forest ( 林 , Hayashi ? ) , fire ( 火 , Hi ? ) and mountain ( 山 , Yama ? ) ; these four kanji make up the Fūrinkazan . The same four kanji can be seen on a sign on the left-hand side of Ryu's stage in Street Fighter II , and are also visible on his belt in Street Fighter IV . The four words are based on chapter seven of Sun Tzu 's Art of War , which dictates how one should conduct battle: "as fast as the wind, as quiet as the forest, as daring as fire, and immovable as the mountain."
In Street Fighter II V , Ryu wears some casual outfits throughout the episodes; his primary appearance is a white short-sleeve shirt, blue denim jeans and red and white sneakers. He also has a black watch on his left wrist. Ryu is not wearing his red headband and his hair seems to be more spiky in this series. When he wears his white karate gi, he only wears a brown prayer bead bracelet on his left wrist. He is also more tanned than in the games.
His second alternate costume in Street Fighter V consists of only his white karate pants with a black belt to his waist and tatters in the edge of his pants, gray shoulder bands on each side and hand wraps on his hands. He also has a black facial beard.
This outfit later became his main outfit in Street Fighter 6 , his handwraps are replaced with brown gloves, his black belt now has white outlines and gained white wraps all over his stomach, and his beard is somewhat less denser. He now wears brown sandals as opposed being barefoot like in previous games. In the second trailer and as a playable character in the game, he gains a large single torn reddish brown tarp-like cloth on the left side which reaches through his right waist and the cloth itself was adorned with a large gold ring to keep themselves attached. The tarp-like cloth that he wears is actually a kasaya to make a near resemblance to the same gi worn by his master Gouken.
During E. Honda's character story, Ryu's black hair was pushed down by the warm water when he was meditating at his bathhouse. By the time he was battling Honda on his bathhouse before he gives him some proper manners after bathing, Ryu wears a white fundoshi without the rear apron and wears a white headband with the sign of red "V" mark at the center instead of his red headband. This also marks the first time to see more of Ryu's bare skin in his revealed appearance as his revealed outfit is the same revealing undergarments currently worn by Cyberbots: Full Metal Madness character, Jin Saotome beneath his main outfit in Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes and Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes where he burns his clothes to show this outfit during execution of one of his special moves or his own taunt while drying himself with a white towel.
In World Tour of Street Fighter 6 , Ryu wears a casual outfit like his anime counterpart in Street Fighter II V where Chun-Li shops him some clothes at the mall due to his problems at the airports from other countries he had traveled in. He wears the white fitted T-shirt, jeans and sneakers from his anime counterpart while wearing a navy blue and pale gold letterman jacket with pink cherry blossom designs at the edge of his jacket. He still wears the red headband on his forehead. This outfit later became his third alternate costume in the game with some minor changes, his jeans appear torn in both knees and the color is dirty white with a black belt around his waist along with a silver rectangular-shaped buckle and his sneakers are replaced with black zori sandals. He wears a white bandanna on his head since his red headband has tied on his left upper arm and was accessorized with white martial arts gloves.
When he participates at the festival, this is where he grows his full beard while wearing his festival outfit. In his fight against Retsu, Ryu wears his white gi and headband from his Alpha appearance but his hair remains black.

Ryu is a wise, humble, self-deprecating, and respectful individual; which is often juxtaposed against the lighthearted, fiery persona of his childhood friend, Ken. He wanders the world with the desire for complete mastery of his martial art, and takes both his travels and training seriously. [15] For Ryu, the training and the mastery that comes from the fight are all that he requires for satisfaction, declining the more material trappings of his various accomplishments as a warrior, simply moving on to his next challenge once he is victorious without delay, unless he is offered food or if he wants to converse with his friendly rivals.
Because of this "wandering warrior" persona and also being trained far away from modern-day culture, Ryu often appears distant to others. Despite this, he is a kind, authentic, good-hearted, and demonstrative warrior who readily helps those less fortunate than himself, is protective and gentle towards children, and on rare occasions, shows a sense of humor (albeit a bad one). He also respects his opponents with skills equal to his own and formidable opponents who he is able to beat and is on friendly terms with, he compliments or encourages them to continue training and get stronger, sometimes offering help first hand.
In his non-canon appearances such as the manga adaptation of Street Fighter II , the anime series Street Fighter II V , the UDON Entertainment comics, and as revealed to Marshall Law Street Fighter X Tekken , due to his profession and very active and demanding lifestyle, Ryu will partake in eating large amounts of food if the opportunity presented itself. Ryu is also not a very picky eater, though he generally turns to Japanese staples out of basis.
Ryu is also described as being straightforward, honest and pure, while some consider it a good trait, others view it as a trait that makes him worse than the bad guys. [40] [41] [42] This purity does not exactly make him a "hero" in a sense, as he shows no interest in saving the world and only focuses on becoming a true martial artist, [43] though he will participate in the former if the need arises. There’s also an official setting of Ryu working as a bouncer for gangs and drug dealers, showing that he doesn’t particularly care who he works for so long as it doesn’t intervene with his goal. [44] This is also shown in crossovers where Ryu compliments and takes orders from boss characters who are considered evil in their own series. [45] [46]
There is, however, a dark side to Ryu: His drive to improve himself, no matter the difficulty, risks developing into a drive to win and to be the best at any cost. This darker drive is fed by (and in turn feeds) the Satsui no Hado within his soul, an influence which Ryu must constantly fight to suppress from killing (at least until the time of Street Fighter III ). In times when his inner darkness threatens to overcome his humanity, Ryu relies on his friends and rivals - primarily Ken, Gouken , Sagat , and Sakura - to keep him grounded and help him overcome out of it.
By the time of Street Fighter III and Street Fighter 6 , despite being socially maladapted [47] , Ryu is somewhat more friendly yet still very quiet and reserved, much like his master Gouken. Ryu's favorite type of women are ones who look good in the spring of Japan. [48] Outside of martial arts, Ryu also takes interest in learning other cultures and histories in whatever country he's in during his training. [49]


Street Fighter

Sagat is characterized by his intimidating appearance and towering muscular build. He wears Muay Thai trunks with colors varying from purple with yellow trim, to blue with red trim, to blue with yellow. He also wears the hand and feet wraps common to many Muay Thai practitioners.

A younger Sagat.

At 7' 5" (226 cm), Sagat is the fourth-tallest character in the whole Street Fighter franchise, behind T. Hawk , Hugo and Abigail . There is evidence to suggest that Sagat's height was the result of him suffering from Gigantism W disorder.
In his youth, Sagat used to have long hair, which is shown to be reddish-brown in one of his alternate costumes in Street Fighter IV . Either he lost his hair over the years or intentionally shaved them off at some point. Additionally, he wore a Mongkhon W .
Ever since Sagat's right eye was gouged out in his fight with Go Hibiki before the events of Street Fighter , it is covered by a black eyepatch. Another notable injury was inflicted by Ryu during their fated fight in Street Fighter ; a massive diagonal scar across his chest. Oddly enough, the Street Fighter II V anime series depicts him with neither of these injuries.

Street Fighter Alpha 2 [ ]

Sagat's ending in Street Fighter Alpha 2 shows him in a white muscle shirt, grey jeans and grey fingerless gloves. In the same scene, Balrog wears the same clothes (while keeping his boxing gloves on), implying that it may have been an official Shadaloo uniform.

Street Fighter V [ ]

In Street Fighter V , Sagat mostly remains unchanged, he now wears a dark blue tattered capris with an orange and yellow belt and is covered with a short green tattered cloak with matching wraps on his arms and feet. He has smaller scars around his chest and covering his limbs.
His first alternate costume is his original violet and green outfit. The eyepatch is replaced with matching pink cloth bandages.
His second alternate costume is the same as his current outfit but it is ochre with gold trim and his tie was Capri blue and he wears a gold necklace with a sapphire gem on the front adorned with a loose white necklace with rose designs.

Graphical Issues [ ]

In the Street Fighter II series, Sagat's in-game sprites did not display his highly muscular build despite having been portrayed that way in his Super Street Fighter II Turbo ending and other Capcom artworks. Starting with the Street Fighter Alpha series, the games began to match his graphics to those of the comics.
Due to an inherent technical limitation with 2D sprite W -based games, the position of the eyepatch and scar appear to change sides whenever he turns around.

Sagat encompasses a stereotypical "proud fighter" personality since he is very powerful and strong-willed, as well as hard-working; he is dedicated to the martial arts life in both body and spirit. According to various bios, his natural size drove him to become a powerful fighter. Sagat's uncommon physical appearance makes him menacing and downright unfriendly at first glance, which is true to a certain extent.
After he was beaten by Ryu, he drew power from the hateful memories. But with his purpose later being defined by the "heart of battle", his more honorable traits came to the forefront. In his Street Fighter IV prologue an old priest who lives in the same village as Sagat noticed this change. [20] He has a lot of regret and bitterness towards his former sins, especially the killing of Go Hibiki , despite the latter taking out his eye. Sagat spared his son Dan when he came for revenge, seeing how easily hatred can corrupt the soul.
Another sign of goodness can be seen in Street Fighter × Tekken , where he helps Dhalsim find and rescue missing village children. Even when offered the mighty power of Pandora , Sagat refuses, stating that "a king like him doesn't need the power of the Gods" and makes the children's safety his top priority.
Sagat appreciates opponents that are worthy and strong-minded while greatly despising people who take unfair and dishonest advantages in combat. His win quotes show him to be a proud and belittling man; this has long since given way to a more honest, advisory side, that still contains his characteristic straight-to-the-point bluntness.


Street Fighter

Prior to Street Fighter V , Sakura used to fight in her school's uniform - a short-skirted sailor uniform ( seifuku ) with the collar popped and red bloomers (short shorts) underneath. In the Alpha series, crossovers, EX series and her guest appearance in Rival Schools: United by Fate , her  red bloomers were depicted as panties in-game. She also wears red Converse -esque shoes, a midriff-baring red top under her uniform, red sparring gloves, a yellow neckerchief, and a white headband that was given to her by Ryu before the events of Street Fighter Alpha 2 . She has short brown hair and brown eyes. Her fuku is blue with single white linings in each sides and white socks. In Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter X Tekken , her socks are shorter and the color is navy blue. Her red bloomers are also revealed to have white linings in each sides. Her school uniform becomes her "Nostalgia" costume in Street Fighter V .
In her ending in Super Street Fighter IV , her hair is slightly longer, she wears a red high-neck sporty jacket with a single line at the center, a white short sleeved undershirt, black shorts, white socks and white sneakers with matching designs. She also maintains her white headband.
In Street Fighter V , Sakura wears a different outfit (her college uniform) that consists of a navy blue vest with a pink trim, a white long sleeve button shirt underneath, a pleated skirt with frills at the edge, black mid-length socks and black short (possibly Docs) boots. Her bolero tie is long and the color are pink and white and is tied at her midriff baring top. Like Ryu's, her headband is red along with matching gloves with a stylized written on the white lines. She also has a head microphone at her left ear.
Her first alternate costume is a blue arcade uniform; a blue short sleeved collared shirt with a yellow trim and collar, a matching ID on her neck, dark blue and black checkered skirt, yellow tights, black socks with red linings and blue sneakers with yellow toe caps. She wears a matching blue cap in place of her headband. She also has a Blanka -Chan doll on her waist. Her second costume is an outfit similar to Ryu's which is a white karate gi with the sleeves ripped into sleeveless, a black karate belt which is tucked into her gi and matching karate pants. Underneath her gi is the red midriff baring top from her school uniform and she wears red footguards.
In Street Fighter 6 World Tour, when Ryu recalled his time with Dan and Retsu during a Japanese festival in his character memory scene, Sakura retain her midriff-baring red top from Street Fighter Alpha - Street Fighter IV sub-series, and keep her red headband from Street Fighter V , in additions of wearing a light blue jacket and presumably either jeans pants or shorts.

In many aspects, Sakura is very tomboyish, outgoing, and respectful in personality, as she is most of the time happy, energetic, cheerful, positive, hard-working and focused in combat. Despite initial depictions and illustrations of appearing to be brash and confrontational, she actually has a noble spirit and a very determined attitude, either in studies or in martial arts training. She sees Ryu as an idol and teacher, rather than an opponent, since she always watches him fight and mirrors herself on his philosophies in battle.
Although her techniques may seem somewhat "rustic" in comparison to Ryu and Ken , she manages to balance her school work with her training in hopes of being accepted as Ryu's student and prove herself by fighting worthy adversaries. In a clean match, Sakura is a very patient and disciplined warrior. She is the embodiment of innocence and is acknowledged by many fighters to have great potential that may one-day match Ryu and Ken in strength when she gets older and skilled.


Street Fighter

Sarai is a purple-haired young girl who is usually seen wearing visor-style sunglasses atop her forehead. Her hair is usually seen done up in a short ponytail, and she is either seen wearing a school uniform of the same style as Ibuki's, or a ninja outfit that also resembles Ibuki's own.
It is possible the village elders allow her to go to a public school alongside Ibuki, as she is seen coming out of the same public learning institution as Ibuki, alongside the same uniform in Ibuki's Street Fighter IV story.

Sarai's personality is not gone into in-depth in the Street Fighter games, though her Shadaloo Combat Research Institute profile states that she dislikes cleaning up and doing homework. She is extremely skilled at tree climbing, taijutsu, and ninjutsu, and enjoys puzzle games.
In the UDON comics, Sarai first appeared to be rather weary, but understanding of Ibuki's lifestyle and status as a ninja. Upon the arrival of Makoto, Sarai showed signs of uncertainty about the girl, and felt that Ibuki was likely to be in danger if she accepted Makoto's challenge to a duel. Sarai was angry that Ibuki never sent her any signs of being alright after their meeting after school, and took this as a sign of being pushed away. Not being a martial artist, she felt that Ibuki was out of her league and needed to be with her kind, thus leaving her for months.
Later on, she explained her jealousy and felt that she was just too normal of be worthy of being friends. She was happy to hear Ibuki explain otherwise, and was especially happy that Ibuki put in a recommendation for her to become a Ninja as well. The two rekindled their friendship ever since.


Street Fighter

In both of her appearances, Sayaka is shown to be around the same age as Gouken and Akuma , but is a bit shorter than either of them. Unlike the two of them, though, her father did not seek to train her in Ansatsuken , and thus she is not that strong, in both appearance and ability. In Alpha: Generations , she had long, brown hair, but in Assassin's Fist , she had tied-back black hair.

Sayaka is shown to be a timid yet sympathetic figure. She cares for her father, Goutetsu, and his students, Gouken and Gouki, very much, and frequently aids them in her endeavors. She encourages Gouken and Gouki to pursue other hobbies, like calligraphy, English and Photography on the side during their training. However, she seems to show a particular liking towards Gouki, who is somewhat oblivious to her due to his personal pursuit for attaining power via the Satsui no Hado . Though it is hinted in the director's commentary that the two have a secret relationship and Sayaka did not discourage Gouki from using Satsui no Hado.

Schot has a punk appearance, having a mohawk hairstyle and wearing sunglasses and a tattered shirt.

He is a jovial person, but cherishes his well kept mohawk. He is easily angered when people make fun of his hair.


Street Fighter

In the Street Fighter III games, Sean wears a yellow gi similar to those worn by Ryu and Ken with the sleeves removed at the shoulders and red, cobra style karate gloves. He wears a black belt and fights barefoot. He is a dark-skinned Brazilian and has black dreadlocks with the sides shaved off and usually brings a basketball with him everywhere.
In Street Fighter V , he wears a modern outfit consisting of a yellow hoodie jacket with the sign of "S" at the center, black outlines in each sides of his sleeves, yellow jogging pants, his signature red sparring gloves and red sneakers with two white linings. He also has a bandage on his nose. In A Shadow Falls , Sean's dreadlocks are grown into shoulder length. He wears a yellow sleeveless hoodie with a black short sleeve fitted shirt, blue baggy jean shorts with a brown belt to his waist and white sneakers.

Sean is eager to prove himself as a strong fighter and hates being referred to as weak. He often makes a point of bringing up Dan as a shining example of weakness and thus someone he hates being compared to.
He is also a huge fan of Ken Masters and wishes to learn from him in hopes of becoming a better person. Additionally, Sean reads a magazine named "Masters Online Karate" at the time of Street Fighter V . Sean is also somewhat afraid of his older sister Laura.


Street Fighter

Developed to replace Rolento , Serge is a bushy eye-browed tough ex-Marine Sergeant who wears an orange beret, khaki-green military fatigues, along with black-leather driver-gloves and paratrooper boots. In addition he also has a palette swap that changes his outfit to a pink color scheme.


Street Fighter

Seth is an artificial-intelligence designed to inhabit synthetic humanoid bodies that possess a Tanden Engine . As noted by Capcom-Unity , Seth is genderless [5] (the second playable character with this known distinction after Twelve ).
In the abdomen, enclosed inside a pattern consisting of the Eight Trigrams of Taoist cosmology known as the Taijitu , is an exposed area, which contains a rotating sphere known as the Tanden Engine, which appears to be the source of his power. his eye and skin color changes to yellow and black respectively, when the Tanden Engine is activated.
In Street Fighter V , Seth has an entirely different appearance; having a body based off of a muscular female physique, with a face heavily resembling that of Juri . This is an interesting coincidence as Juri is the one responsible for his reemergence. This body is known as " Doll Unit Zero ". The skin is predominantly a metallic polished silver with smaller black areas separated by glowing orange lines, has very long black hair with a unique hairstyle, tied in a high ponytail along with a single large undorned ox horn, to have it bear resemblance to an aureole or divine halo or tenne , and amber eyes. Although Seth now has a feminine appearance, his voice remains unchanged.
Doll Unit Zero does not seem to exhibit the ability to stretch its limbs as the previously used body was capable of, but displays a previously unseen ability to rapidly increase and decrease its muscle mass according to the move being used.

Seth is just as intelligent as M. Bison himself, with ruthlessness and cunning to match. Unlike M. Bison, Seth is generally very calm and concise, though he displays a fair bit of arrogance, often through his annoying-by-design tendency to laugh and gloat when using his more powerful moves. Seth also demonstrates a deep knowledge of the philosophy of human nature and the pursuits of purpose and self-awareness. This unusual trait, coupled with his endless thirst for power, implies that Seth intends to become his own entity entirely and not be bound to M. Bison as his replacement shell. Notably, while Seth appears to be the only "sentient" enhanced being, his Arcade Mode win quote against another Seth implies that at least one other clone may have developed self-awareness.
However, his desire for power and philosophical pursuits are a one-sided and neutral affair; he displays very little (if any) morality or respect for life, and values people only for his usefulness. Due in part to his ego, Seth will keep his S.I.N. subordinates in the dark in case he plans to betray them - insubordination is something he refuses to tolerate.
Seth is of the belief that any power is good power, as indicated during his fight with Ryu in Street Fighter IV: The Ties That Bind . [7] In addition, despite his philosophical leanings, Seth displays rather pragmatic, overly skeptical and cynical displays of disbelief in more intrinsic and spiritual views on life; his Arcade Mode win quote against Dhalsim states that if the latter's techniques were truly mystic, he could not possibly imitate them.
During his fight with Ryu in The Ties That Bind , Seth opens up about his beliefs while goading him:

" Power only has meaning if it's put into action... it defines you. Power like that is what rules the world. Everyone seeks power, seeks to grow in strength! But this goal is out of reach of ordinary men. The poor seek riches, the ugly beauty. We compare ourselves to others and seek to cover our own inadequacies to find peace of mind. The mere existence of those who are better than us becomes intolerable! We FIGHT in retaliation! If beauty is not enough, we use money! If money does not work, we resort to violence! This energy is what powers our world! IT IS ESSENTIAL! All I seek... is to help this natural process along, this destructive force begotten from conflict! This power that everyone lusts for, I will spread it over the world with but a TOUCH! It is like a well that can never run dry, a precious mineral... flowing from an exhaustible mind! This power will be mine. " — Seth

In Street Fighter V , due to serious systematic errors that occurs with the integration of his brain and the body of Doll Unit Zero, Seth's personality is drastically affected, showing signs of severe psychosis. He become obsessed with hunting down M. Bison to the point that he becomes delusional, resulting in mistaking both Falke and Ed (due to their exposure to and use of Psycho Power ) as Bison during his confrontation.


Street Fighter

Low-rank Shadaloo soldiers use a uniform with shoulder armor similar to M. Bison 's and a hat. Every four years its color is changed, being changed from mustard yellow to a lively blue during Street Fighter V . While on duty, low-rank soldiers are required to put on a helmet for protection, which possesses a Psycho Power receiver that can temporarily make their body tougher. While out of service, soldiers must wear a stylish red beret. [1] Birdie left Shadaloo because he refuses to wear hats, arguing with F.A.N.G about it and being chased by blue soldiers while wearing the old yellow uniform.
Medium rank soldiers wear a green shirt and red beret. High-rank soldiers wear a grey uniform, a red hood, and a skull-like mask. [2]
The uniform varies in other media, being a blue uniform in Street Fighter × Tekken , a standard military uniform in Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie , and a terrorist-like appearance in Street Fighter II V . All have the Shadaloo mark. In the live action movie they are named Bison Troopers and wear white or red gi while training and combat armor in missions. Other members (like Zangief and Dee Jay ) are seen with a red uniform.

As a palette swap of Charlie, Shadow looks exactly like his original counterpart, but his entire body has nearly been blacked out, and a white eye is shining behind his glasses.


Street Fighter

Shadow Lady wears the same clothes as her original counterpart, but her clothes are now dark blue with neon golden details. Her alternate color is pink with neon green details, but if you manage to view her ending with the alternate color, the green details somehow change into gold ones.
Also, you can see flashes of her face lit up when she uses the Plasma Barrier move.


Street Fighter

Like Skullomania , Shadowgeist wears a white and black full body suit with sun designs on the center and the buckle of his belt. He wears a matching v-belt and orange boots. He also wears light orange gloves, a long red cape and a full faced skeletal mask to conceal his face with a single gold blade on the front.
In his Shadaloo C.R.I. profile art, Shadowgeist's appearance remains largely the same, only both his gloves and boots are yellow.
In Fighting EX Layer , the sun designs on his suit and belt are turquoise and glows in white and neon green. His belt is larger and is no longer v-shaped. Both his gloves and boots are bulkier and segmented, and the color is black and white to match the suit.

Shadowgeist is generally seen with a grim demeanor with little mercy. Despite his brutal tactics, he has a strong sense of justice, and despises those who harm others unjustly. He bears a strong hatred towards the government of his home country due to their role in the murder of his wife and disappearance of his daughter.

Sharon has red (orange in her Shadaloo Combat Research Institute artwork, said to have the color of a rose in her profile [1] ) hair that is short length (shoulder length in the back) in a full fringe, and brown eyes. She wears earrings on her ear and a rose tattoo on her neck.
Her primary appearance, is a short sleeved black (brown in her Shadaloo C.R.I. profile) leather mini collared jacket with a black bra underneath, matching pants with two triangular designs at the right side with three belt buckles to keep the right sleeve of her pants attached and black heels. She also wears long gray gloves and wields firearms such as a handgun or a assault  rifle.
Her alternate appearance is still her primary outfit; her mini collared jacket, bra and heels are red and her pants are dark red.
In Street Fighter EX3 , she retains her original outfit only her black bra is recolored to blue.
In Fighting EX Layer , her red shoulder length hair at the back is now cut short to make her completely short hair and her long fringes are now parted at the right side to make it resemble a full fringe and has a single fringe on the left. She now wears a different outfit but retains her black leather mini jacket from her Street Fighter EX2 outfit. She has white folded sleeves and the collar of her jacket. Her black bra and her matching pants are replaced with a long red, sleeveless dress that resembles a qipao. The dress also features a plunging neckline as well as a dark red collar. The edge of her dress skirt has a single gold rose design, a large dark brown belt with a matching side belt with a gun holster on her right where she keeps her main handgun and a gold buckle with the sign "SIA" at the front. She has a brown mesh pantyhose and different pair of black heeled boots (her right boot is after the right knee and her left one is thigh-high). She wears dark red gloves and has two black belts on her right thigh below the knee and has a single belt on her left one. She is accessorized a necklace with an oblong-shaped turquoise pendant on her neck and an oblong-shaped yellow earrings on both of her ears.

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-handily searching for. However, the ringleader has already escaped to another place. "The tattoo 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..."

Shibasaki is seen as a slicked black hair and fair complexion. Wearing a black suit and pink tie.

While concerned for Karin's welfare, especially in regards to her interest in street fighting, he is nonetheless in awe of her abilities as a martial artist and as the heir of the Kanzuki Zaibatsu.


Street Fighter

Shin has full blond hair and sports an orange shirt, a blue down vest, green pants and black and orange shoes with zippers.

Shin is a good-natured, easy going young man who still maintains his wide eyed innocence. He also has a side to him which shows his more selfish and shallow side. This tends to bring out narcissistic tendencies when it comes to Shin's appearance, as he wants to be stylish and cool and has great confidence in himself. He even chose taekwondo over karate because of its "cool, brilliant appearance". [1]


Street Fighter

In his debut in Street Fighter Alpha 2 , he was simply a palette swap of his normal self, having red hair and a violet gi instead of black. Later incarnations have him wearing a dark purple gi and eventually white hair, as well as a slightly darker shade of skin.
In Street Fighter III: 2nd Impact , Shin Akuma retains his original incarnation's regular dark skin, but his gi turns a dark gray and he gains yellow eyes and light gray hair. This design later reappeared in Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix .
In Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition , Shin Akuma uses his 'Nostalgia' costume as a basis rather than the default one, once again he has his white hair, but the purple aura he usually uses has been changed to red, his gloves have also become red his skin is also a redder tone, and his Gi now has dark greenish tint, this is a reference to an alternate costume for regular Akuma in the Street Fighter Alpha series .
In Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers , he has orange hair and a dark cyan gi while retaining his original incarnation's regular dark skin but with a purple glow. This is a reference to one of his early alternate costumes in Street Fighter Alpha 2 and 3 .
In Tekken 7 , Shin Akuma's appearance remains the same as his original form with the exception of his Satsui no Hado aura that surrounds him becoming evident.

Shin Akuma's personality remains more or less the same as his normal self. Essentially, he is simply Akuma using the fullest extent of his power. However, he becomes more competitive in battle and less merciful when he is fighting a strong warrior. As Akuma usually holds back to give lesser fighters a chance against him, he will only fight as Shin Akuma when he has found an equal to duel with.


Street Fighter

Shin-Bison is very much similar to regular M. Bison in terms of appearance, except with a different palette for his skin and outfit: his uniform is white with turquoise shoulder pads and anklets, and he has a zombie-like light purple skin tone. He is also physically larger than the normal Bison.
Shin-Bison can only be fought once the player has accumulated a high enough score, which can only be accomplished by means of acquiring numerous perfect victories and by winning matches using a Meteor Combo , Meteor Tag Combo, or a Critical Parade as often as possible. He is also unplayable, unless third party cheat devices are used, as he is quite unbalanced in terms of gameplay and even has an unlimited amount of energy in his meter.


Street Fighter

Shoma has short black hair with spike fringes in the center of his head. He wears a white baseball cap and has a bandage in the center of his nose.
His primary outfit is a white short sleeve baseball shirt under a long sleeve black shirt, baseball pants, black socks and baseball shoes.
In the endings of both Rival Schools: United by Fate and Project Justice , Shoma wears the Gorin summer school uniform; a white short sleeved loose collared shirt with a Gorin emblem on the left side, blue jeans and white sneakers. While carrying his large baseball bat, he has a red and black backpack hanging on his bat.
In the School Life Mode of Nekketsu Seisyun Nikki 2 , Shoma wears either his Gorin summer school uniform or his primary outfit. He also has a casual outfit consist of a light green short sleeved shirt with a red trim and both his blue jeans and sneakers from his school uniform.

Shoma is a quick-tempered and impulsive person who hates losing. Because of this, he often loses track of what has to be done. His membership into Gorin High's baseball team was due to the fact that he causes wild fights during games. He's also highly conscious of his height, which happens to be the subject of ridicule by Natsu , who also happens to be a childhood friend of his, aside from Nagare . This concern of his is almost always the reason of why they argue, and Shoma never seems to win against her in such verbal wars for such an issue, but through all of that, Shoma has a strong sense of justice.
Shoma is also shown to be quite very vengeful after his older brother and fellow baseball player Shuichi was seriously injured and hospitalized by an unknown assailant until his individual ending, where Shoma himself is seen to be a worrywart about Shuichi's condition, which displays his kind and caring side. He is also gullible and naive as well when he had briefly teamed up with Momo Karuizawa during the events of Project Justice until she had revealed her true affiliation with Kurow and Yurika Kirishima from the Darkside Student Congress.
In the School Life Mode of Nekketsu Seisyun Nikki 2 , Shoma is always seen hanging around with both his family and friends, such as playing baseball with Shuichi, competing in a beach volleyball match with Natsu during the Beach Overnight, and taking a swim with Nagare.

Shun is a short child with pale skin and brown hair. His eyes have a distant look to them. When he taps into Satsui no Hado, his appearance becomes sinister, and his body is covered in a dark aura.

Shun appears to be a quiet and distant child from appearance, but deep down he's energetic and excited when it comes to fighting. His inner strength and energy comes from the experiments performed on him by Sadler .

In Street Fighter EX , Skullomania's costume is simply a black body stocking with a skeleton motif printed on it. The Kamen Rider/"Skull Rider" image was enhanced in Street Fighter EX2 , where Skullomania's costume gained a red scarf, gloves, and boots, as well as a belt almost identical to the Typhoon belt worn by Hayato Ichimonji , Kamen Rider #2. Both the belt and the forehead of Skullo's mask bear a stylized letter "S".
In his Shadaloo C.R.I. profile art, his gloves and boots are white, he no longer wears a belt and a gun holster on his right thigh and the "S" on his mask is orange instead of red.
In Fighting EX Layer , Skullomania remains largely the same in both of his appearances in Street Fighter EX and in his Shadaloo C.R.I. profile. His gloves are now black with a skeleton motif and his boots became shorter. The boots are black and white to match his black body stocking with a skeleton motif. He no longer has the "S" on his mask but retains his red scarf from Street Fighter EX2 .

As his regular self, his meek, simplistic outlook makes him nondescript. Once he dons his Skullomania persona, he becomes a heroic figure, despite the macabre motif, with a powerful sense of justice. One thing that survives both persona phasing is his somewhat campy sense of humor and showboating.


Street Fighter

Slash is a muscular black man, sporting an afro as well as a red open jacket and pants. He wears gray fingerless gloves, as well as brown boots.
In his Street Fighter V artwork, Slash now has long, curly hair (due to him growing his hair out), as well as a yellow jacket and brown pants. His boots are now black with silver toes, and he wears a chain necklace. Slash's gloves are black and cover his fingers, and he is shown wielding a steel pipe.

Slash has a very quiet and reserved personality, and always takes care to act professionaly. Due to this, he is widely respected in the Mad Gear Gang. However, he hates to lose, and lets his emotions show in a big way when playing games or any sort. Slash enjoys watching soccer games, but does not play the sport himself. [1]


Street Fighter

In combat, Sodom wears tabi and zori, samurai gauntlets, blue jeans, body armor, and a samurai kabuto with a mask, which obscures his facial features entirely; however, it is known that he has blue eyes.
On the front of his outfit, Sodom has attempted to scrawl the Japanese kanji shi (死), meaning "death". However, he has not written the kanji properly, and thus its meaning is lost.
He is never seen fighting without a pair of jitte or katana blades, making him one of the few characters to appear in the Street Fighter series to use weaponry. In the Japanese version of Final Fight , the katana are named Masamune and Muramasa.
In Street Fighter V , Sodom's body armor has long sleeves, he wears a black traditional mask with very long white shaggy hair in a similar look to Garuda 's helmet and mask. He uses a pair of large sai instead of the jitte, and his samurai gauntlets are black. He wears traditional aqua blue pants with linings and his zori has curly designs in each sides. Notably, he finally writes shi properly on his chest.

Sodom is an American person who is obsessed with Japanese culture and philosophies and thus considers himself a native from that country. Sodom is well-versed in many elements of Japan's culture; however, a source of humor is that his usage of the Japanese language is questionable, as shown with the kanji on his costume and several of his win quotes.
In the Japanese version of the Street Fighter Alpha games, much of Sodom's dialogue is rendered entirely in katakana , a Japanese script used largely for transcribing words from English or other foreign languages into Japanese (and vice-versa for Japanese that isn't meant to be translated into other languages, like "Pachinko"), which gives his dialogue a more stilted and awkward feeling to read. Sodom intersperses various English words throughout his sentences, thus coming across as unskilled in speaking the Japanese language. Many of Sodom's victory quotes are written in seemingly nonsensical English sentences, which are actually various English words put together to resemble Japanese sentences, again giving off the impression that Sodom's pronunciation and grasp on the language are questionable. One of Sodom's victory quotes in the Japanese version is "DIE JOB DEATH CAR?", which is intended to be an approximation of the Japanese phrase " daijōbu desu ka? " ( 大丈夫ですか , " daijōbu desu ka? " ? ) , which means "Are you alright?".
Aside of his Japanophile tendencies, Sodom is initially characterized as a simple-minded, foul-mouthed, and somewhat narcissistic brute. He believes in the "might makes right" mindset in justifying his aggressive behavior and taking great pride in his strength, though he also held grudges against those who have defeated him before. This is especially true with Guy due to him reinforcing Sodom's belief that he is no match to native Japanese fighters, leading into a one-sided rivalry in which Sodom seeks to overcome his limits.
In the earlier Street Fighter Alpha series, Sodom often belittles any opponent he deems weak, though he is known to held genuine respects towards anyone he think is strong (including his bitter rival Guy). His evaluation are biased however in favor of native Japanese fighters (such as E. Honda and Ryu) due to his Japanophile preferences. Despite his foul-mouthed tendencies, however, in Alpha 3 , Sodom clarifies that his harsh comments towards his opponents were "nothing personal" and that he doesn't really "hate" them. Suggesting that Sodom viewed street fighting simply as a sport and he would (mostly) value his opponents based on their fighting skills.
While Sodom is no stranger with the criminal underworld, he seems to held some moral values. During the time that Sodom dedicated his life for the resurrection of the Mad Gear gang, he believes in the so-called "Mad Gear ideals". He values voluntary loyalty and kinship, and would recruit new members through trial by combat while respects those who chose not to join the gang. Sodom also viewed M. Bison and Shadaloo to be an even greater evil, even temporarily severs his relationship with his comrade Rolento upon learning that he planned to took Shadaloo's base for himself, and later reconciled once Rolento reveals that he intended to destroy the Psycho Drive , as they deemed that its brainwashing power went to be against their ideals.
Although Sodom would only make sporadic cameos after the Alpha series, it is implied that Sodom has since leaves his shady past behind and reformed himself as an honest citizen. In Street Fighter IV , Sodom is stated to be opening a yakitori restaurant. While in Street Fighter 6 , he is also implied to enter the trucking business and befriended E. Honda, whom he attempted to recruit a few years back.


Street Fighter

Stray is a lean but tall and powerful man with wild purple hair and black shades. He wears a green trench coat over a white shirt, purple camo pants, purple gloves, combat boots, spiked metal knuckles, and metal shin guards. Overall, his visage fit the stereotypical description of an unsavory and threatening stalker or criminal.
In his Shadaloo C.R.I. profile art, his sleeves for his trenchcoat are torn off, he wears a white headband, and his left arm is said to be an advanced robotic metal prosthetic.


Street Fighter

His appearance is identical that of the normal Bison, except that he wears a black outfit with gray gloves and knee pads.


Street Fighter

T. Hawk is an immensely tall and bulky man with long, powerful arms and legs, massive hands and feet, shoulder-length slick brown hair and imposing facial features such as pronounced cheekbones, a flat nose and a wide square chin. He paints his cheeks and lower jaw in a white Native-style battle paint. His clothing consists of denim vest and pants, iron bracers entirely covering both forearms, thin steel armbands around his biceps, a cowboy-esque brown leathery belt with a huge buckle and metal decorative tokens, moccasin shoes or boots and a blue and white triangular-patterned headband ostentating a pair of white eagle feathers (one of them is red at its end tip) etched diagonally upwards from it. His head accessory is a memento from his father. [8]

T. Hawk is commonly brave, tough, selfless, noble-spirited, centered and fearless, but equally grumpy, cold, brutish, unemotional and apparently unsympathetic. His lack of emotion display mostly comes from the suffering and devastation inflicted by M. Bison towards his people and sacred homelands - such hatred grew even more powerful in Street Fighter Alpha 3 , when T. Hawk discovers that his childhood friend and lover Julia was turned into Juli , one of the Shadaloo's top-ranking female assassins known as The Dolls , under Bison's brainwash. Despite his externally hard demeanor, T. Hawk is actually a warm-hearted, compassionate man - as evidenced in several of his artworks, where he shows unquenchable affection for native animals - who sights revenge solely on the purpose of rescuing his long-lost people and restoring his ruined homelands back to its former glory.


Street Fighter

Terry is a tall and muscular man with long blond hair and blue eyes. His most recognizable outfit consists of a red sleeveless jacket with a white star on the back of it, a white undershirt that is torn at the shoulder, blue jeans and red sneakers modeled after Converse's Chuck Taylor All-Stars. His hat is a baseball cap that is red and white with the words Fatal Fury etched in red on the front, and he wears his hair in a ponytail. He also has black fingerless gloves, and a black belt with a silver buckle. His iconic outfit is his Fatal Fury 2 outfit, which he wears in most appearances.
His first alternate costume in Street Fighter 6 is his default costume from the Wolves sub-series, depicted in Garou: Mark of the Wolves and Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves . In it, he does not wear his cap, his hair is down and cut shorter to the length of his shoulders, and his jacket is now a brown leather bomber jacket with a star on a blue circle marked on the back and the words "Running Wild" under it. The jacket also has another star logo enclosed in a blue ring with the word "Airborne", patched on the left sleeve or both, and a white labeled patch on the left side at front with the "Airborne" text on it.

Terry is a spirited and friendly young man known widely across South Town for both his fighting prowess and his easygoing personality, rarely showing any ire towards his opponents barring truly malicious individuals such as Geese Howard. In spite of Geese's cruelty and the death of Jeff Bogard, Terry still reaches out to save him from falling to his death, an act that Geese rejects. While he worries for Rock's path following Kain's guidance, Terry trusts him to make his own decisions, and ultimately respects Rock's choice.


Street Fighter

The Wraith is a hulking and demonic wrestling contender who is described as one of the undead. This is a visual irony, as his attire leaves him more often described as resembling a priest rather than a wrestler. His hood, his tattered cape and his loose fitting baggy pants would all provide quick and convenient handholds for his opponents. In truth, this might actually be a deliberate handicap on Wraith's part in order to help aid his search for a worthy and difficult opponent to do battle against (even siding against Victor Ortega ’s CWA wrestling alliance and becoming a loyal member of the rival BWA could also be seen as another sign of this concept as well).
Another irony to his appearance is the green skin, long serpentine tongue, scaly face, and employ of snakes that accent his appearance. As mentioned above already, he is described as one of the undead, but he also appears to possibly be a massive snake-esque man as well. His alternative palette color is grey, making him more like a risen corpse.


Street Fighter

Damnd is an agile Caribbean man with a dark complexion, blond dreadlocks each ending in a number of beads, is almost as huge as the Andore Family , and is always seen manically grinning or laughing. He wears a white waistcoat (gold due to color limitations), white and blue shutter sunglasses, faux fur-lined turned-down boots, and various jewelry.
In Street Fighter 6 , his appearance had some minor changes, looking a bit more aged than in his last appearance, wearing a full beard. He has a tiger print tank top with a leather black vest in the style of a motorcycle club (having a Mad Gear Gang MC Metro City patch at the back and another patch acting as the President of the MC on the chest), new blue framed sunglasses, and yellow fingerless gloves.


Street Fighter

Tiffany has long and curly blonde hair which is tied in a ponytail with a long distinctive curly fringe in the center of her head. In the original game, she wears red boxing gloves, a blue high-neck cheerleading suit with a big white star on the chest with two brown belts that attached on both of her shoulders, red and white stockings with golden stars on her folded stocking and blue boots.
As Tiffany2, she wears her Pacific school uniform; a blue formal suit jacket with a Pacific logo at the left side, a white long sleeve button shirt with a red tie at the collar, white skirt, brown stockings and black flats. In both Roy's and Boman 's individual endings from within Rival Schools: United by Fate , as well as the Pacific High ending in Project Justice , she wears this outfit as her long neck tie is replaced with a salmon pink tie.
In the School Life Mode of Nekketsu Seisyun Nikki 2 , Tiffany is usually seen in her casual clothes; a green long sleeve loose button shirt, white pants and white sandals. She also wears her cheerleading primary outfit and various outfits during her school term. She also has two swimsuits during both Swimming Day and the Beach Overnight. Her first swimsuit is a medium blue two-piece bikini and her other swimsuit is a revealing white and red stripped two-piece bikini as her bikini top uncovers half of her bosom.
In Project Justice , her cheerleading outfit has a redesign, she wears a long sleeve white and blue high neck leotards with a star design that shows her cleavage with a white and black line skirt on each side of her waist. She wears red and white thigh-high boots with a golden star in the center of her folded sleeve on her boots. She maintains wearing her boxing gloves with a white star design in both of her fists as her long sleeves has white lines with a Pacific logo in each side and two yellow stars on both of her shoulders.

Tiffany is described as a cheerful and bubble-headed "American funky girl" who is very much into fashion and love life. She's always in a haze and playing around, without any thought of what lies ahead of her in the future. On weekends, she never misses the chance to go to the dance club. She misses her parents back in the United States, who in turn never forget to call her on the phone or send her presents every now and then. She and Roy attended the same school before they went overseas and she is in love with him.
In the School Life Mode of Nekketsu Seisyun Nikki 2 , Tiffany shows more of her playful and whimsical side during the school events and she was also shown to have a little crush towards the male edit characters besides Roy while showing her bashfulness. Like Batsu , Tiffany is also shown to be quite very clumsy during the Swimming Day, where she was completely embarrassed after her own bikini top was accidentally removed via going down a water slide and splashing into the water itself.


Street Fighter

While it can theoretically take on virtually any form, Twelve's default appearance is a milky-white semisolid male humanoid. Its body is generally smooth and featureless. Its head is equally smooth and sloped like a helmet with a pair of thin, red eyes, covered by black veils, set above an expressionless, narrow mouth. Though it can alter its shape, the transformation is not perfect: it will maintain its coloring even on details such as clothing.

Twelve bears no active personality, usually copying its opponents' quips and uttering "target" and "complete". Beyond this, Twelve is only capable of expressing itself in a binary code cypher (00001 = A, 00010 = B, etc.). Its winquotes imply a simplistic, aggressive and even thuggish personality, akin to that of an arrogant foot soldier.
In its rival battle against Necro however, Twelve is shown speaking in a normal manner. Twelve isn't without quirks in its personality, however. In one of its winposes it looks around to make sure it isn't being seen, jumps into the air, transforms its hands into wings and flies away while shouting 'woohoo!'.


Street Fighter

J and Two P are a pair of punks dressed in baggy pants and jackets. Two P sported a pink mohawk, wore shades, dressed with an orange jacket with a green dragon backprint and blue (dark green in his sprites, gray on his Street Fighter V profile) shirt and trousers. In his Shadaloo C.R.I. profile he also has blue fingerless gloves.
In Streetwise he wears a green hooded jacket (with a " w00t " symbol, instead of the green dragon on the back), red shades, gray shirt, blue pants and orange and white sneakers. He now sports a brown beard and the hood on his jacket covers up most of his head. Unlike his appearance in Final Fight and his Street Fighter V profile, he is portrayed as African American.

Despite his intimidation, Two P has a very humorous personality, often telling jokes during his conversations with others. His catchphrase is "Yeah, me too, man!" ( あぁ、そいつぁ俺も同じだ！ , A~a, soitsu ~a ore mo onajida! ? , lit. "Ah, that's the same for me too!" ) . [1]


Street Fighter

Urien has a similar appearance to Gill , having exactly the same physical build (i.e. that of a Greek Olympic athlete) with dark bronze skin tones and short, metallic white hair. On his forehead, he has a small jewel crowning it (similar to a Bindi), and his shocking animation reveals it to be embedded directly into his skull. He also wears a simple loincloth.
In his pre-match introduction in the Street Fighter III series, he appears as a pale-skinned man with short blonde hair and wears a light brown (white in his 3rd Strike ending) business attire; he then sheds the suit, his skin darkens to a bronze complexion, and his hair turns from blonde to metallic white.
Many of his alternate colors are similar to those of Dhalsim , in that they change his skin color as opposed to his costume's color. This ability to change skin and hair color could be the result of his control over metal. In his time over sprite, he reverts back to his normal state and his skin becomes pale.
In Street Fighter V , Urien wears his business attire as his primary outfit with minor changes; the suit is gray with white pinstriped designs, he wears a partially unbuttoned purple button shirt and no tie. His skin, hair and the blue gem on his forehead still remains in his transformed state. If the player holds specific buttons as a match is about to begin, Urien will incinerate his clothes and fight in his loincloth as in Street Fighter III . When this is done, any alternate costume additions to his head or face such as longer hair or sunglasses will be retained. In Gill's character story, the color of the business attire is white and dark pink.
His first alternate costume has him wearing sunglasses and his business attire, but it is purple, without the button shirt, white shoes, and a long white scarf draped over his neck. His second alternate costume is his classic attire in Street Fighter III .
His crossover costume in Street Fighter V closely resembles Capcom character Albert Wesker from Resident Evil 5 , his leather trenchcoat is shown to be jet black, and his zippered turtleneck, pants and boots are charcoal gray. His metallic white hair is slicked back and he wears his signature sunglasses.

Urien's personality can be best described as tyrannical and authoritative, much in contrast with the benevolent and compassionate nature of his brother Gill (though in reality Gill's far from a good person and is quite fanatical).
Urien also renounces any noble traits and elements associated with leadership, regarding them as worthless, and instead seeks fear and subjugation through his reign, much like a despotic, oppressive, totalitarian, and domineering tyrant. Accordingly, he screams phrases such as "crush", "destroy" and "kill" during most of his special attacks, which - along with their names - highlight his violent and destructive nature, and also points to a lack of self-control stemming from emotional instability. He is also shown to very arrogant though this may be at least somewhat justified as he is shown to be a very strong fighter overall.
It can be also seen Urien is extremely distrustful and suspicious of anyone else but himself, with a constant vigilance against insubordination and betrayal to allies and enemies alike, perhaps as a subconscious result of his domineering and tyrannical behavior and an instinctual fear of someone out to get him in retaliation as a result. As such, he antagonizes his comrades and associates like he would his adversaries, calling Helen a 'rat' and chastising her for plotting behind his back. Urien displays a level of shortsightedness when he tries to kill Nash on a whim after defeating him, despite Urien's very own technology being used in Nash's resurrection. Urien's patience runs thin when dealing with those he deems 'Commoners', as shown when he throws an Aegis Reflector at Rashid for so much as touching him. In Gill's character story, Urien displays both his anger and jealousy towards Gill.
Urien's nickname in the Street Fighter III series is even " The Treacherous Disciple ", alluding to his status as the Judas to Gill's Jesus. Urien frequently displays sadistic tendencies, and takes a lot of pride in becoming the "True Emperor". Urien also dismisses the cryogenically preserved brains of his predecessors as "ugly and stupid" and "a mass of junk with no ability to take positive action".
However, not all of Urien's humanity seems lost to his obsession to power. In Gill's character story in Street Fighter V Champion Edition, Urien may hate his brother for achieving power he could only dream of, but he hates most of all the prophecy and the functions of the Secret Society, which has, in his eyes, led to losing his brother as he knew it, leading him to later on formulate a plot to destroy the very organization he's in, once and for all.

Concept [ ]

Urien's design draws on his relationship to Gill: if Gill can be compared to Jesus Christ, Urien can be considered Judas Iscariot, whom his title even references.
It is of interest to see that while both Gill and Urien have megalomaniacal god complexes, both draw aspects from different types of gods. Gill's imagery centers on Judeo-Christian ideas surrounding him as the Messiah, a bringer of light and as a holy prophet that will lead humanity to a golden age, which is reflected in his personality and actions (the charisma of Jesus and the shepherd Moses), and his Super Arts (summoning angel wings and resurrecting). His personality is also more benevolent in comparison to his brother, since he genuinely wants to guide humanity by any means necessary, like the Old Testament God, or can be seen as Lucifer, God's first creation and fallen angel who became known as the Devil when he crashed to earth and was banished for his pride, and is said to gather "those of the Earth" to rise against God in Revelations.
In contrast, Urien takes more from the Greek/Roman gods, who were infamous for their arrogance and pointless cruelty by constantly demeaning and ruining the lives of men should mankind ever outdo or defy them. His pagan ways and ruthlessness are reflected by the names of his moves, Greco-Roman inspired hairstyle, and materialistic goals and exploits; such was as the Roman Empire into its last days, as much of Roman ethics at the time degraded into immorality and moral degeneracy before its collapse. His personality may also draw from and emphasize the darker aspects of Greek heroes and kings like Jason and Agamemnon, whose incredible exploits and achievements were done simply to gain power and respect for the sake of having it. Concerning the world of martial arts and the ways of battle, Ancient Greek thought once held the idea that life itself was a fight and struggle of its own, while it was also said that the Olympians engaged in combat for recreation due to their immortality. Furthermore, it is speculated that the name Urien is a misromanization of Julian , a Roman emperor known for his strict rejection of Christianity in favor of Hellenism, matching Gill and Urien's motifs.
Like Gill, Urien shares a few inspirations with him, being based on Yuda from Fist of the North Star and the Pillar Men from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure . Mirroring Gill, he also draws similarity to a character found in the Super Nintendo RPG Tales of Phantasia , being that of the key character Reisen , the Magitechnology scientist and advisor to the Kingdom of Midgards who drove Dhaos into antagonism, explaining Urien's association with weaponry and scientific pursuits.
However, Urien's own design bears resemblance to the replicant antagonist Roy Batty of Blade Runner fame, the Marvel character Adam Warlock , the crazed technocratic ruler Trevor Goodchild of the animated series Æon Flux , and even the famous WWE Wrestler/Hall of Famer Ric Flair ; furthermore, his enjoyment of suits (and robes, with Flair's case), the culturally memetically famous quotes of Crush, Kill, Destroy! , and megalomaniacal desire of ruling with an iron fist may refer to the concept of " The Man ", the derogatory societal term of "The System", and how those that follow it in this context are also derogatorily referred to as "robots". The antagonist character of Zeus from the ADK - SNK series World Heroes also bears similarities to Urien; along with sharing inspiration from Fist of the North Star and lifting traits of shedding their formal suits into more suitable attires for combat, Zeus was also the heir to a secret society family not unlike Street Fighter 's own Secret Society itself, which had manipulated world history from the shadows for global conquest.
His Roman based attacks and imagery also invokes the familiarity to the infamous Roman Emperor Caligula ; not only given names potentially rife for ridicule, but also to their emotional instability, as Caligula grew to be known as an insane, fiendish, scandalous, vituperative, indulgent and abusive tyrant to his peers and the populace, claiming himself as the incarnation of Jupiter to having at one point forcibly thrown a section of a crowd into a pit of carnivorous animals for his amusement. On a minor note, Roman statues were often colored than the common thought of them being plainly white, as the Romans saw the plain marble as the statues being tastelessly lifeless, while Roman political culture often perceives insanity as one aspect of poor government.
Urien can also be seen as the Akuma to Gill's Shin Akuma/Oni, serving the same purpose the regular Akuma does as a watered-down playable boss character. The biggest difference is that Urien is his own character.


Street Fighter

Vega is a tall, strikingly handsome young man with long hair that is braided into a ponytail. His hair has switched between brown, black, and blond through various Street Fighter media. In the Street Fighter II series, Vega's hair is colored brown in the sprites, but colored blond in the endings that feature him. The comics give him blond hair, as do Street Fighter Alpha 3 and Street Fighter V . In Street Fighter IV , Vega has brown hair in both the cutscenes and the gameplay. He wears murrey and yellow ceremonial trousers, a red sash, loafers, and white leggings of a matador, suggesting his involvement with bullfighting. This decorative garb offers matadors ease of movement, and is therefore ideal for Vega's acrobatic maneuvers. Vega also has a purple snake tattoo on his chest which circles his left arm, and on his right arm and both his wrists he wears gold-colored armlets. The tattoo shows him to be a villain to a Japanese audience, where body tattoos are usually worn by Yakuza members. In Capcom vs. SNK 2 , as a win pose, Vega will hold his arm out, with the tattoo coming to life and hissing at the opponent. In most Street Fighter media, he also maintains long and sharp nails on his hands.
Early sketches suggest that Vega was going to resemble a medieval knight wearing a full suit of armor. This idea was scrapped, as Street Fighter was about fighters from all over the world, not from different time periods. There are a few remnants of this concept in Vega's final design, specifically a mask and a sharp metal claw. A similar type of weapon was used by Geki in the original Street Fighter , which has led to speculation that Vega received some training from Geki. [ citation needed ]
Vega's concept of being a Spanish ninja was not originally in the planning. In the later phases of development, a handful of concepts such as a ninja character, a Thai character and a Spanish character were left incomplete, to which artist Mizuho "Katuragi" Kageyama was assigned to create. Initially, Vega was meant to be a Thai ninja, but was suddenly told to make a Spanish ninja in a similar style to the Nameless Asura , an antagonist in the Fist of the North Star series known for his immense agility, distinct mask, bladed weapons and braided ponytail.
Vega has a white mask that is lacking in facial features or expressions. There is a purple symbol on his mask, the same color as his tattoos. It is difficult to tell how durable his mask is. On one hand, Vega is able to crush it to dust with one hand if he loses due to a time over in Street Fighter Alpha 3 . On the other hand, it takes several hits before the mask falls off and, even then, he can easily pick up and reapply the mask, with no apparent lasting damage.
Much like Sagat 's eyepatch in earlier games, Vega's claw will always appear on whatever arm matches the direction he is facing (if he is looking to left side of the screen, it will appear on his left arm, and if he's looking right, it will be on his right) due to sprite mirroring. In the Street Fighter EX series, it will always be on his right arm. In Street Fighter IV , however, he changes his claw every time he switches sides, without mirroring; this can be seen in his tattoo, his accessories, and in the mark on his mask. Curiously enough, during the versus screen, his portrait won't be mirroring all the accessories either, with the unique exception of his claws.
In Street Fighter V , Vega retains his claws and red waist sash but is now wearing a partially opened white shirt. His traditional matador pants are now a light blue denim. The purple snake tattoo that encircles his torso can still be partially seen. His main outfit was maintained in his minor appearance in Street Fighter 6 during World Tour and no longer wielding his claws since he became the owner of his own castle.
His alternate costume is an altered version of his outfit. The sleeves of his frill shirt are short and his signature mask is replaced with a golden opera mask. His blond hair is tied in a slick back in a ponytail with a long single fringe in the center of his head.
His Halloween DLC costume has him wear a long red coat, a black formal suit with a white tie and black boots. He also wears white gloves and a magician hat on his head. While wearing this outfit, Vega can fight with or without his long coat.

Vega's character archetype is very familiar in Japanese manga and anime: the Narcissist ( ナルシスト , Narushisuto ? ) , often depicted as a long-haired, effeminate self-lover. Certain archetypal characters are comparable to Vega, elaborated on his pop culture page.
Vega is vain, overconfident, and highly convinced of his own abilities, almost to the point of megalomania. He is also incredibly sadistic and takes great pleasure in seeing the ugly murdered, and preferably mutilated. He often has a stone-cold demeanor, and does not even show a wide range of emotions. His narcissism and disdain for anything lacking elegance causes him to clash with fellow Shadaloo member Balrog due to the latter's boorish nature.
Vega's vanity is demonstrated in how he uses his mask. He wears the mask not to conceal his identity, but to protect his face from scarring or bruising during battle, so that he can more easily view himself as perfect-looking. Vega often removes it after fights during his win poses, and his face is at least partially, if not fully, exposed in some of his character-select mugshots as well as some of his individual endings. Additionally, many characters are able to recognize Vega even if they never see him without his mask. In some games, he can remove the mask during battle.
Vega's unbridled and solipsistic ego is shown even in his taste in interior décor, as his mansion is adorned with portraits, all of himself. Vega is also good at adopting elegant and gentlemanly mannerisms, likely because of his noble background. He has also been described as intelligent and sophisticated. [11] Additionally, he is also attracted by the beauty and strength of young female fighters, such as Chun-Li and Cammy ; in the case of the former he frequently compliments on her appearances. At the same time, he seems to derive pleasure from causing pain and despair to Chun-Li, and even enjoys taunting her. With men, on the other hand, Vega tends to completely look down upon them and is seen constantly scolding their fighting abilities and "ugliness" in his win quotes, considering his looks and skills to be superior.
He also harbors a tragic side. The family trauma he experienced molded his fragile mind to perceive physical unattractiveness not only as repulsive, but also as a threat. With his attractive mother murdered at the hands of his unattractive stepfather, ugliness came to represent evil and cowardice, while beauty represented heroism and strength. This also implies that Vega's hatred of anything "ugly" may actually be a manifestation of post-traumatic stress disorder. It has also been said that Vega's love of beauty is at least partially rooted in the way he was raised by his mother.
In Super Street Fighter IV , Vega shows a small amount of respect for Guy in his Arcade Mode win quote, saying he expected better of him. While this is surprising considering his personality, it makes sense since both are masters of ninjutsu , and they are arguably the two most agile Street Fighter characters. Additionally, some, if not all, of Vega's win quotes against other ninja fighters suggest that he judges them based on their skills and abilities with the art of ninjutsu (as well as their appearance).

In his debut in SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos , Violent Ken dons his usual red karate gi but has slightly lighter hair, darker skin, and purple eyes. The official artwork shows him with an afro, but it isn't seen in the actual game.
In his Street Fighter V profile artwork, he has the same hairstyle as his version in the game, but all his hair is unclipped and unstyled, letting his long hair out, and his hair is a lighter blond. He also has the torn-up gi and undershirt that was worn by his normal self in Street Fighter V .
In Ultra Street Fighter II , he has grey eyes and a slight purple tint on him.

Violent Ken is highly obsessed with violence and power, as all his winning quotes seem to focus on this obsession. Due to the corruptive effects of Soul Power's darker aspects such as Psycho Power, his personality is somewhat similar to certain other characters such as Decapre , shouting and yelling quite frequently when fighting against his opponents, this trait can be seen in Violent Ken's pre-battle dialogue in SVC Chaos and the UDON Comics.

Having started off as a simple head swap of his brother, Yang's appearance is similar to that of his brother in many aspects. His changshan is red with a black and yellow trim. Like his brother, Yang also wears yellow fingerless gloves that cover his forearms, dark pants, and sneakers. Unlike Yun, however, he does not wear a cap. Instead, Yang sports a rather distinctive hairstyle, with incredibly long and jagged bangs which protrude quite some distance from his forehead. Yang is seen riding on his rollerblades when not fighting.

Yang is the less cocky of the two Lee brothers, with a cool, quiet, and self-carrying personality. However, he can also be condescending and a bit mouthy, and exhibits an eagerness to prove himself, though mainly to prove himself stronger than his brother as opposed to all fighters. His remix of their theme in Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition is more calm and pleasant sounding in its beat, reflecting this.
Like Yun, he is a film enthusiast, and when he encounters Fei Long in Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition , in his win quote he asks if he is "the real Fei Long" and then plan to tell Yun about meeting him. He also comments on Decapre looking like she came from "some crummy B movie".

Yun is the more energetic and extroverted of the Lee Brothers, compared to Yang; he is more playful, upbeat, and easygoing, and while confident, he is not as cocky or sharp-mouthed as his younger brother, though he isn't above cracking jokes at the expense of anyone he defeats. He is also said to be impulsive, but out of the two, Yun is said to be a born leader. Like Yang, he is also a movie enthusiast; when Yun encounters Fei Long in Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition , Yun asks in his win quote whether he is "the real Fei Long" and then plans to tell Yang about meeting him.

In the Japanese board game from within the Japanese version of Project Justice , Zaki is seen without her black mask during "Swimming Day" and "Beach Overnight".
In her appearance in Akira's arcade ending in Street Fighter V and the manga version of Street Fighter: Back To School Special , both of her school jacket and her high-neck qipao dress are black just like Akira's second alternate costume and has minor changes. Her short jacket now resembles a mini jacket and her high-neck qipao dress appear to be silky and it is similar to Xiayu 's. Her stockings are now dark brown and her hair clip adorned from her high ponytail is replaced by a chain.

However, Zaki gradually starts to become less abrasive after spending time with Akira and Yurika, and respects the latter even after her involvement with the brainwashing incident due to Yurika acting on her own accord and betraying Kurow for the sake of those she cared about, something Zaki herself is a fan of.


Street Fighter

Zangief is a massive fighter, weighing 399 lbs and standing slightly over 7 feet tall, placing him as one of the tallest characters in the entire Street Fighter roster. Since his debut in Street Fighter II: The World Warrior in 1991, Zangief has been portrayed with a beard and a mohawk, along with a uniquely-shaped formation of chest hair on his torso and on his shins. His massive frame is almost entirely covered in scars from his bouts with brown bears in the barren and remote area of Siberia.
Zangief's wardrobe consists of simple red wrestling trunks with a gold belt, along with red and gold wristbands and his red wrestling boots with gold trim. In one of Zangief's concept artworks, he wore a tank top and had a sailor anchor tattoo on his left arm. He would retain the tank top in all his Street Fighter II portraits (except Turbo Revival and HD Remix ), in order to indicate what color the player chose for him.
Starting with Street Fighter Alpha 2 , Zangief was adorned with a red cloak that he would remove before starting his matches. The cloak became an accepted fixture of his image and he was shown with it in the 1994 Street Fighter II animated movie. Although modern 3D interpretations of Zangief have so far not shown him with his cloak, he is still depicted as wearing it before matches in his ending movie on Super Street Fighter IV .
He has multiple alternate costumes in Street Fighter V . The first one is a red wrestling suit with a single long sleeve; another is a red tank top with a golden lightning emblem at the center along with the sign of "METAL", yellow tights in a rainbow camouflage motif with black kneepads and yellow boots with a red lightning motif. He also wears black studded armbands and a yellow bandana on his head with a matching rainbow camouflage motif.
In Street Fighter 6 , Zangief became heavier in build and wears wrestling tights as opposed to wearing trunks. He wears red and white tights with a black trim along with a gold belt adorned with white crossed lace straps, and retaining both his gold wristbands and his red wrestling boots with a gold trim from his original outfit. He is now wearing red elbow bands on each elbow.
His third alternate costume was his corporate outfit, a black formal vest with a red long sleeve button-up shirt with two brown straps in each sides, black formal slacks and dark brown loafers.

Born and raised in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), Zangief is an incredibly patriotic character who has been motivated in some way to fight for his Russian motherland in every single game he has ever been in. While his personality has varied from one media source to another, Zangief is mostly been portrayed as a very fearless and tactical fighter who is prone to quick temperaments and is always very competitive. In addition to being overwhelmingly patriotic, he is immensely proud of his massive physique and is obsessed with muscle building. In battles, he constantly belittles his opponent's smaller muscular build and blaming their losses on their lack of muscular power. His win quotes often consists of critiques towards his specific opponents about their lack of power or him telling his opponents to build more muscle.
Despite his short temper and boastous altitude, Zangief has shown himself to be rather gentle-natured with a good sense of humor, once entering a tournament partly to win the admiration of a group of school children. According to the instruction manual of Street Fighter II: Special Championship Edition for the Sega Genesis/Mega-Drive, Zangief is described as being "good natured, with a great sense of humor and totally fearless".
While not fighting, Zangief enjoys hopak (Cossack dancing) and eating borscht . Some of the things which he does not like includes young women (because he views them as a distraction, though his interaction with Marisa has caught him off-guard as he never has "carefully consider[ed]" a romantic relationship before), bears that do not know how to wrestle properly and (according to the manual for Super Street Fighter II Turbo for the 3DO) projectiles such as Hadokens , Yoga Fires and Tiger Shots . He is also shown to be interested in fine arts and literature, as he would often visit a library to read various classical works as well as listening to classical music in his free time.
When wearing a mask, he goes under his heel persona of "The Gief", maintaining much of his pride but also demonstrating a much more aggressive and taunting tone. He often insists that certain fighters lean into the heel gimmick more, and makes references to his colleagues from Saturday Night Slam Masters .

Zeku has long white/gray (brown in his younger form) hair with full fringes covering his eyes. In the Alpha series, his hair is depicted as brown and he wears an outfit identical to Guy 's, only green. This outfit appears in Street Fighter V as his third alternate costume. In the UDON comics, Zeku is portrayed with a moustache.
In Street Fighter V , Zeku wears a traditional yellow and green dragon designed vest with a matching yellow trim and green cloud design, and a drawing in the back resembling the War God from Forgotten Worlds . Underneath his vest is a dark blue long sleeved ninja garb which is tied in a yellow obi as the left sleeve are ripped into short sleeve, matching dark blue traditional pants and open-toed boots. He has an orange turtleneck beneath his garb. In his younger alternate self, he wears a dark blue ninja suit with half sleeves and wears a red ninja scarf to cover his mouth. He also has a red sash which is tied into a obi as the sash in each side are hanging loose.
In his first alternate costume, Zeku wears a modern type of outfit consisting of a yellow orange long sleeve button shirt with the black cloud design while his sleeves folded into cuffs, and a blue and light blue striped neck tie on the collar, indigo pants and brown shoes. He also has dark blue arm wraps which are tucked into the sleeves of his button shirt, and has a silver watch on his left wrist. His younger form wears the same outfit with a formal suit jacket within it.
His second alternate costume is a blue ninja suit worn by with a large bowl hat. His younger form wears the same but with a kanji at the left side.

While Zeku can be seen as just a simple serious and stern teacher, he does have a youthful, cheerful, upbeat, and a well-mannered attitude, as well as a strong sense of justice and modernity. His past experiences with sparring his former master, Genryusai , was influenced through his former disciple turned successor, Guy. He has a odd mannerism in which he likes to talk with himself, normally in his young form. Zeku often likes to help other people like Karin , Ibuki and Cody by offering his assistance or joining to his ninja group in which everyone declines his offer due to his shady occupation and his transformation between his old and young form.
