Fatal Fury

Born in South Town, Terry was raised to emulate his father's legendary fatal fighting techniques in the martial arts. He returns after 10 years of training to defeat his late father's arch enemy, Geese Howard.

Terry Bogard's younger brother. After his father's death, Andy left for Japan - where he learned the special 'Kop-po' fighting technique.

As a Japanese Mu-e-tai Champ, Joe Higashi carved himself a strong reputation both in Japan, and in the home of the style, Thailand. The key to his technique is the 'SLASH KICK' - which has tremendous power.

The sponsor of the King of the Fighters Tournament. Geese Howard controls all that is vice and corruption in South Town.

A professional boxer who disdains rules, Max would rather battle to the death than just punch out his opponent. He aims to win the King of the Fighters Tournament using his dangerous 'TORNADO UPPERCUT' and powerful defense tactic, the 'Step Away'.

Myer is an expert in 'Kapo-era' a technique that focuses attack power through multiple kicks. He has come to the tournament to show everybody just what his fighting style can do.

While gifted with quick moves and fighting ability, the Duck King could never outfight Terry. So he trained harder in a 'street-dancing' style that moves so fast that it is difficult to block.

Mysterious and seemingly harmless, he was Sensei (teacher) to Terry and Andy's father long ago. He is certain that Geese is responsible for his student's demise, and is fighting in the Tournament so as to get a chance to confront Geese.

Having lost the Mu-e-tai championship to Joe Higashi, Hwa Jai now dreams of being acclaimed as the greatest fighter of all. His 'DRAGON KICK' technique is such a crazed weapon that other fighters think he is no longer sane.

Once a legitimate professional wrestler, Raiden now prefers the violence of fighting without rules. As if his mighty bulk wasn't enough, he can also blow an overpowering 'POISON FOG' from his mouth.

An absolute master with the javelin, Kane is called 'the Walking Weapon' and serves as Geese Howard's right-hand man. He is even more ruthless and inhuman than his master, and is also the defending champion of the King of Fighter's Tournament.
