Official Tag Partner: Julia

Voice Actor: Tsutomu Isobe / Patrick Seitz"

Once a revered legend in the fighting scene due to his technique and looks, Bob disappeared only to return morbidly obese. Believing that he had found the perfect balance of speed, technique and power, Bob enters the King of Iron Fist tournament 6 to prove his worth once more.

Bob is hired to accompany Julia to the Antarctic, in order to secure Pandora. He nonchalantly accepts.

"My perfect body!"
 * Acrofatic: He ends up fighting fellow fatty Rufus in the TGS 2011 trailer.
 * Bounty Hunter: According to his intro with Julia.
 * Eagle Land
 * Everythings Better With Bob
 * The Fighting Narcissist: A benign version compared to Vega, but his defeat quote shows how obsessive he is over his "perfect" body.

Origin: Japan

Fighting Style: Mishima-style Karate

Official Tag Partner: Kuma

Voice Actor: Unsho Ishizuka / Jamieson Price"

The former head of the Mishima Zaibatsu and host of the first, third, and fourth King of Iron Fist tournaments. Heihachi has mastered the use of his family's signature karate and proved himself to be an opponent who cannot be taken lightly. He is also known for possessing superhuman strength, shown in his fighting style and his survival of a cataclysmic explosion, aimed at him.

After hearing about the Mishima Zaibatsu's war with Shadoloo over Pandora, as well as the G Corporation's involvement, Heihachi seeks to obtain the box for himself, thus foiling his son and grandson's plans. He takes Kuma with him as insurance.

"(vs. Guile) "You have a hairstyle that is... how should I say this... Weird.""
 * Badass Grandpa
 * Hypocritical Humor:


 * Turns Red: Heihachi's Pandora mode literally does this instead of succumbing to the usual effects of Pandora.
 * You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: His Pandora mode. Instead of letting his teammates sacrifice themselves, he just shoves them off the battlefield and Turns Red.

Hwoarang


"Debut: Tekken 3

Origin: South Korea

Fighting Style: Taekwondo

Official Tag Partner: Steve

Voice Actor: Tomoaki Maeno / Chris Rickabaugh"

The self-proclaimed rival of Jin Kazama, who he fought to a standstill. Hwoarang has since then been a frequent participant of the King of Iron Fist tournaments to face Jin once more and defeat him, once and for all.

A sanctioned fight between Steve and himself is violently interrupted by the Mishima Zaibatsu and Shadoloo. Outraged, he teams up with Steve in order to strike back at the organizations that had the nerve to ruin their bout.

""Sorry, I like to spank girls. Not get spanked by them.""
 * Badass Biker
 * Big No: When defeated.
 * Extremity Extremist: As a Taekwondo practitioner, the majority of his moves involve kicking.
 * Pre Ass Kicking One Liner: "You're not gonna like this ONE BIT!" Take note, this is before he performs an aerial axe kick on you.

Jin Kazama
"Debut: Tekken 3

Origin: Japan

Fighting style: Traditional karate

Official tag partner: Xiaoyu

Voice Actor: Isshin Chiba / Brad Swaile"

The son of Kazuya Mishima and current CEO of the Mishima Zaibatsu, which he seized during the King of Iron Fist Tournament 5. Jin is a troubled young man, haunted by the death of his mother and the curse of the Devil Gene as a descendant of the Mishima bloodline. He participated in the King of Iron Fist Tournament 3 at the behest of his grandfather Heihachi, led to believe that he would be able to avenge his mother by killing the God of Fight, Ogre. However, Heihachi simply had used him as live bait, betraying and attempting to kill him at the end of the tournament. Jin survived by awakening the Devil Gene and has sworn that he would once and for all seal its evil by eliminating his family and himself. Prior to hosting the sixth King of Iron Fist Tournament, Jin waged a global war using the Zaibatsu's resources, hoping to revive an ancient monster through the chaos and strife of warfare, believing it to be the key to freeing himself and the world from the Devil Gene.

The reason why the Mishima Zaibatsu has been so adamant on obtaining Pandora is entirely personal. Jin believes it to be the key in ridding himself of the Devil Gene. He decides to go to Antarctica himself, allowing Xiaoyu to come along.

""I don't have time to listen to your bullshit.""
 * Anti Hero / Anti Villain: Jin's motivation for obtaining Pandora is to rid himself of the Devil Gene but he will use any means possible to acomplish his goals. His victory quotes are, with few exceptions, very callous.
 * Berserk Button: Do NOT harm Xiaoyu. Juri found this out the hard way in the fifth Cinematic Trailer.
 * Eye Beams: As the final blow of his Super Art.
 * Precision F Strike: When he defeats his cousin, Asuka, a known loudmouth.


 * Sub Boss: With Pandora Xiaoyu as Pandora Jin.
 * Super Powered Evil Side: Like Kazuya, Jin can transform into a bloodthirsty demon by unlocking the Devil Gene within him. Unlike Kazuya, he does not embrace this, and is actually trying his best to get rid of it.
 * That said, his Super Art technique does briefly feature his Devil persona, but it seems more like it momentarily takes over his body, rather than him voluntarily using it like Kazuya.

Julia Chang


"Debut: Tekken 3

Origin: Arizona, U.S.A

Fighting Style: Chinese Kempo

Official Tag Partner: Bob

Voice Actress: Seiko Yoshida / Annie Wood"

The daughter of former King of Iron Fist tournament participant Michelle Chang, Julia has picked up many things from her mother, including her love for nature and skill in fighting. Julia has participated in the tournaments in order to help her further this goal.

Concerned about the effects Pandora could have over nature, Julia wants to investigate the box herself. She hires Bob as a bodyguard to the South Pole.


 * Amazonian Beauty
 * Apologetic Attacker: She would appear to be one here.
 * Author Appeal: Capcom's penchant for handing out Heroic Builds to most characters (some of the ladies included) seems to have rubbed off on Julia, who is shown to have a more muscular physique than usual (as compared to her home series, where she's a bit more slender and athletic).
 * Bare Your Midriff
 * The Glasses Come Off/Glasses Pull: In her intro pose.
 * Magic Skirt
 * Martial Pacifist: Her taunt: "Why do you insist on fighting?"
 * Nature Hero

Fighting Style: Mishima-style Karate

Official Tag Partner: Nina

Voice Actor: Masanori Shinohara / Jordan Byrne"

The son of Heihachi Mishima, Kazuya won the first tournament and used the Mishima Zaibatsu further his hidden dark agendas. Kazuya hosted the second King of Iron Fist Tournament but was bested by Heihachi, leading to a near-death experience. He was saved by G Corporation and has since then frequented the tournament. He is currently the CEO of G Corporation, opposing Jin Kazama's global war but only so he may remove the obstacle preventing him from making himself the dominant global superpower. He has several demonic powers at his disposal, allowing him to fly, transform into a devil form and shoot lasers.

Kazuya, looking to amplify the devil Gene within him, seeks to take Pandora for himself. When Nina offers her assistance, Kazuya allows it.


 * Badass in A Nice Suit: In the first cinematic episode
 * Eye Beams: He uses them in both the second CG trailer and as part of a special move in the game itself. Interesting in that he doesn't need to switch to his Devil form to do this.
 * Power Gives You Wings: During his super, purple wings can be seen behind Kazuya as he fires his Eye Beams, evocative of Devil. He's also briefly shown sprouting wings in the SDCC 2010 trailer, and wings made of smoke materialize behind him momentarily in the Captivate 2011 trailer.
 * Shock and Awe: While the Mishima family's strongest attacks are usually surrounded by an aura of electricity, SFxT actually allows him to shock his opponents.
 * Wolverine Publicity: One of the first four playable fighters revealed for SFxT, and is among the most iconic Tekken characters.

King II


"Debut: Tekken 3

Origin: Mexico

Fighting Style: Lucha Libre/Professional Wrestling

Official Tag Partner: Marduk

Voice: None (uses generic jaguar noises)"

This jaguar-masked luchador fights to preserve the legacy of his predecessor, also named King. The first King was killed by the God of Fight, Ogre, prior to the third King of Iron Fist tournament. In order to prepare himself to avenge his death, he trained under Armor King. Before the fourth tournament, Armor King was killed in a bar brawl by Craig Marduk, setting King on the path of vengeance for his slain tutor. However, by the fifth tournament the duo have made amends and are now friends.

King hears of a being with a disturbing resemblance to Armor King in the Antarctic amidst all the fuss over Pandora. King is adamant on getting to the bottom of it, along with Marduk.

"(vs. Kazuya) The jaguar is the god of all living things! It will not lose to the devil!
 * Badass: He sharpshoots devils (Kazuya, Akuma) and gods (Ogre) and swings around people twice his size. (Hugo)
 * Badass Boast

Kuma II


"Debut: Tekken 3

Origin: Japan

Fighting Style: Advanced Bear Fighting

Official Tag Partner: Heihachi

Voice: None (uses generic bear noises)"

The son of Heihachi's old bodyguard, also named Kuma. Like his father, Kuma the Second has been trained in the art of Advanced Bear Fighting; a personalized fighting style that was designed by Heihachi for use by bears. Kuma's main purpose is to defend his master from any threats. Holds a deep rivalry with Paul Phoenix. He has a crush on Xiaoyu's pet panda, Panda.

True to his purpose, Kuma accompanies Heihachi to Antarctica in order to obtain Pandora.


 * Everythings Worse With Bears: Well, for his opponent anyway.
 * Fartillery: Kuma's Super Art involves him slashing you, breaking your fall with his butt and farting.
 * Intelligible Unintelligible: Inverted. His speech is translated to us in cutscenes. Not to the other characters.
 * Only Sane Bear: Compared to Heihachi. Too bad almost no one knows what he's saying, and the only one who does (Heihachi) doesn't listen.

Emilie "Lili" de Rochefort


"Debut: Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection

Origin: Monaco

Fighting Style: Street Fighting

Official Tag Partner: Asuka

Voice Actress: Asami Seto / Joy Jacobson"

The daughter of a wealthy businessman, Lili learned to love fighting after an incident where she was kidnapped. Traveling around the would to fight, Lili was later caught by her pacifist father and grounded for going against him. She now fights to prevent her father's business from going under.

In order to obtain Pandora for her father, Lili requests the help of her rival, Asuka.

""Do you even know who I am?"
 * Badass Boast: Before she executes her Cross Art.


 * Dance Battler: She incorporates Ballet into her moveset.
 * Glass Cannon: She has some excellent moves, great rushdown capabilities and does a lot of damage, but this means her health is akin to Seth.
 * Hair of Gold
 * Nice Job Breaking It Hero: In her ending, Lili seems to have a thing for doing this, like in her Tekken 5 ending.
 * Panty Shot: Oh so many.
 * Pre Ass Kicking One Liner: "Let's get beautiful!"
 * She's Got Legs
 * Skyward Scream: An absolutely nightmare-inducing one as she succumbs to the effects of Pandora, followed by a Primal Stance.
 * So Long Suckers: Gets a BIG one in the Asia Game Show cinematic where she leaves Asuka, Chun-Li and Cammy all in a heap whilst the Shadaloo Ship sails away with her on it. And Asuka is her partner.
 * Spot of Tea: At the start of a match, she proclaims that she'll end the fight before tea time.
 * Upperclass Twit: Like a few of the other characters, her personality is far more exaggerated in this game than in her native Tekken - she's more eccentric, ditzier, and in the inter-fight cut-scenes, some of her expressions and poses veer towards the classic anime Laughing Mad aristocratic noblewoman type.

Craig Marduk


"Debut: Tekken 4

Origin: Australia

Fighting Style: Vale Tudo

Official Tag Partner: King

Voice Actor: Yasuhiro Mamiya / T.J. Storm"

The murderer of King's mentor Armor King, Marduk is an unstoppable force whose love for battle powers him to continue his brutality. He would later befriend King and investigate behind the sudden reappearance of Armor King before the sixth tournament.

Hearing of the appearance of Armor King at the South Pole, Marduk seeks to find answers alongside King.

"Nice knowing ya!"
 * No Holds Barred Beatdown: His Melon Masher Super Art has him tackling then mercilessly pounding his opponent's face with his fists. Due to the graphical style of the game, this looks more vicious than it would if he was doing it in a Tekken game.
 * Not Even Bothering With the Accent: He's Aussie, but as in his native series, he's voiced with an American accent.
 * Pre Ass Kicking One Liner: "I'll crush ya to dust!" (at the start of the match)
 * Pre Mortem One Liner: Delivered during the last hit of his Super Art:


 * The Unexpected: He was most likely included as a "tag along" with King, who is popular enough for the both of them.

Marshall Law
"Debut: Tekken

Origin: United States

Fighting Style: "Martial Arts" (seemingly based on Jeet Kune Do)

Official Tag Partner: Paul

Voice Actor: Keisuke Fuji / David Vincent"

A chef and martial artist, Marshall Law is a frequent competitor in the King of Iron Fist Tournament scene. Having owned a dojo and a chain of Chinese restaurants, he was eventually ruined through a series of misfortunes, starting with the bankruptcy of his restaurant chain and compounded by a major freeway accident caused by his son Forrest prior to the King of Iron Fist Tournament 5. Since then, he has been fighting to find the money to pay back the debt caused by the incident. He is both friends and rivals with Paul Phoenix and has also become friends with boxer Steve Fox.

Voice Actress: Yuu Kobayashi / Mary Elizabeth McGlynn"

A mysterious Irish woman. Not much is known about her, other than her occupation as an assassin. Has a vicious and unending rivalry with her sister Anna. Following Tekken 2, she was placed in a cryogenic stasis for twenty years, waking up when Ogre emerged. She had no memory of her past until Tekken 5. She currently serves as bodyguard of Mishima Zaibatsu C.E.O. Jin Kazama.

For unknown reasons, Nina offers her services in helping obtain Pandora to her former target, Kazuya.


 * Author Appeal: Capcom's love for epic-sized thighs has transferred from Chun-Li over to her.
 * Career Killer
 * Combat Pragmatist:
 * She has no problems holding Ryu in place as Kazuya winds himself up for an uppercut.
 * She does it in the CG trailer against Ryu to allow Kazuya a shot with his laser eye. Good thing Ken threw off his aim.
 * Irony: Despite being non-canon to her native series, she is nonetheless paired with Kazuya. While this is for reasons of Wolverine Publicity, her role in Tekken 6 would require her to eliminate Kazuya at the behest of her current employer (Jin Kazama, head of the Zaibatsu and opposing force to G Corporation).
 * Conservation of Ninjutsu: Implied heavily in her ending,
 * Kiss of Death: In typical Femme Fatale fashion, she blows one to her foe at the beginning of her super.
 * Oireland: Her native place, although she doesn't have the accent.
 * Only in It For The Money: The reason why she's even with Kazuya in the first place.
 * She's Got Legs
 * Wolverine Publicity: One of the first four playable fighters revealed for SFxT, and is among the most iconic Tekken characters.

Ogre
"Debut: Tekken 3

Origin: Unknown, but discovered in South America

Fighting Style: Absorbs the fighting abilities of those it defeats

Voice: Unknown (speaks in alien tongues)"

Ogre is the legendary "God of Fight". No one really knows where it came from but rumors speak of its immense power in battle. Some say it is a weapon left behind by an alien race eons ago. Heihachi uncovered this being during a Tekken Force excavation project prior to the King of Iron Fist Tournament 3. Once unleashed into the world, numerous martial artists fell prey to it, as it seemed compelled to expand its fighting repertoire. Heihachi, knowing this, declared that he would host the King of Iron Fist Tournament 3, believing that such a collection of fighters would surely bring the God of Fight to him. Ogre conceals a second form that is much more monstrous than its normal form (which resembles an Incan god). Paul Phoenix bested Ogre's normal form, but it was revived and continued to absorb other fighters' abilities until it transformed into True Ogre (its second form). After this, Jin Kazama engaged True Ogre in battle and defeated the being for good.

Ogre believes Pandora to be a relic from his race, so it decides to obtain it.


 * Blood Knight: It feels compelled to find those with great skill in battle and defeat them.
 * Fan Nickname / Just for Pun: If YouTube comments are anything to go by, due to his SFxT-model's uncanny resemblance to the boss of S.I.N., albeit with a green tint and some additional flimflam, some have taken to call him Seth Green.
 * Final Boss: For Street Fighter characters.
 * Mayincatec: The basis of its design.
 * Your Fighting Style Is Mine/Mega Manning: Absorbs the combat skills of those it defeats in battle.
 * Worthy Opponent: Played Straight and Subverted. He considers Akuma to be the only decent opponent on Earth. Akuma on the other hand has nothing but contempt for the God of Fight.

Paul Phoenix
"Debut: Tekken

Origin: United States

Fighting Style: Martial arts based on Judo

Official Tag Partner: Law

Voice Actor: Kanehira Yamamoto / Mike McFarland"

A hot-headed fighter and avid biker, Paul has participated in every King of Iron Fist Tournament held to date. Always looking to prove he's the best fighter in the world, he has a rivalry with Kazuya Mishima due to their first meeting ending in a draw, and was the one of bested Ogre in a fair match, but unknown to him the god was pulling his punches by not going all out as True Ogre, which in turn was killed by Jin. He also has a rivalry with Kuma, having been bested by the bear on several occasions. He is friends with Marshall Law, despite some friction caused by his son's recklessness, and also trains with Steve Fox on the side.

Looking to score some big money, Paul sees much monetary potential in Pandora. To this end, he teams up with Law and heads for the South Pole.


 * Anime Hair
 * Boisterous Bruiser
 * Large Ham: "I am the top fighter... IN THE UNIVERSE!!!"
 * Megaton Punch: The good ol' Phoenix Smasher.
 * No Indoor Voice: "PAAAAUL!!! PHOEEEEENIIIIIIIIIIIIIX!!!!"

Fighting Style: Ninjitsu

Official Tag Partner: Yoshimitsu

Voice Actor: Kenichiro Matsuda / DC Douglas"

A member of a shadowy agency, Raven was ordered to infiltrate the fifth tournament to investigate the Mishima Zaibatsu and the death of Heihachi Mishima. Now, Raven fights in the sixth tournament to defeat both Jin Kazama and Kazuya Mishima to end the global war.

Having been ordered by his agency to obtain Pandora, he allows Yoshimitsu to join him on the mission, but only if the eccentric ninja follows his every order.


 * Darkskinned Blonde
 * Flash Step: Taken to an extreme with his Super Art.
 * Knife Nut
 * Teeth Clenched Teamwork: He dislikes Yoshimitsu because he thinks Yoshi isn't a true "ninja". He agreed to go with him in the condition that everything is done Raven's way.

Steve Fox


"Debut: Tekken 4

Origin: England

Fighting Style: Boxing

Official Tag Partner: Hwoarang

Voice Actor: Yoshimasa Hosoya / Gideon Emery"

A British boxing champion. Bears a large scar on his arm that has perplexed him since as long as he can remember. Discovered he was the product of a Mishima Zaibatsu project and rejected his past, vowing to crush the Zaibatsu in order to prevent more of "his kind" from being created. Is good friends with Marshall Law and Paul Phoenix.

During an official match with Hwoarang, the Mishima Zaibatsu and Shadoloo decimate the arena, effectively ending the match. Steve looks to strike back at the warring factions alongside Hwoarang as payback for ruining their fight.


 * Accidental Pervert: In his Rival Match, while trying to break up an argument between Poison and Hugo, Steve accidentally grabs her breast.
 * British Accents: Of the Cockney variety, which provides good contrast with the Street Fighter team's RP-accented fellow Brits, Cammy and Dudley.
 * Extremity Extremist: Subverted in he has one regular attack (a foot stomp) that uses his feet. One of his titles "I can kick too" lampshades this.
 * Good Old Fisticuffs: Staying true to his Tekken design, he uses his fists for all of his attacks bar one.
 * See You in Hell: Steve belts out a variation of this ("I'll see you... in Hell!") at the end of his super, a flurry of punches ending with an impromptu Spitfire.
 * Walking Shirtless Scene
 * Wrestler in All of Us: Has a grab where he clinches the foe, as you would expect from a boxer. He then throws them over him much like a Belly to Belly Suplex.

Ling Xiaoyu
"Debut: Tekken 3

Origin: China

Fighting Style: Various Chinese Martial Arts

Official Tag Partner: Jin

Voice Actress: Yumi Touma / Carrie Savage"

A young woman who is determined to save Jin Kazama from the darkness that clouds his mind and heart. The two met at the Mishima Polytechnic Academy and ever since, Xiaoyu has been trying to convince Jin to turn away from the road he has taken. She dislikes the Mishima family, as she hates their endless struggle and the grief it has caused Jin. She has a panda named 'Panda'.

Hearing about Jin's decision to retrieve Pandora, Xiaoyu is worried to death about what might happen to him. Refusing to allow the man she loves to go alone, she accompanies him to keep him safe, somehow.

""That's right! (Pandora) belongs to Jin! And Jin belongs to me!"
 * Anime Chinese Girl
 * Clingy Jealous Girl: She will often declare to other female fighters that Jin is hers.
 * Covert Pervert: See Getting Crap Past the Radar.
 * Everythings Better With Sparkles: During her enhanced moves and even her Super Art!
 * Genki Girl: As long as she's not moody about Jin's struggle, she's a pretty peppy girl normally.
 * Getting Crap Past the Radar: "Don't touch me with your grubby hands! Only Jin is allowed to do that to me!"
 * Girlish Pigtails
 * Green Eyed Monster: A particularly weird case comes with her alternate costume. According to the Excuse Plot blurb, Ling was extremely jealous of Chun-Li when she came to arrest Jin, and she chose to wear a derivative of her Alpha-era costume in order to prove She Is All Grown Up.
 * Love Makes You Evil: To a degree. She's a co-sub-boss because she wants Jin to have Pandora at all costs
 * She Fu: One of the more agile characters in the game.
 * Sub Boss: With Pandora Jin as Pandora Xiaoyu.
 * Took a Level In Badass: If Tekken Blood Vengeance didn't cement her status as one, the mere fact that she's now a Sub Boss should do the trick.
 * Took a Level In Jerkass: She willingly takes Pandora to please Jin.
 * Violently Protective Girlfriend: As a Sub Boss.

"Jin is MINE! I won't let you take him away from me again!""

Yoshimitsu


"Debut: Tekken

Origin: Japan

Fighting Style: Manji-style Ninjitsu

Official Tag Partner: Raven

Voice Actor: Tomokazu Seki / None"

The latest inheritor of the title (and sword) "Yoshimitsu", a title and weapon handed down through generations of the Manji Ninja clan. Is a strong associate of Dr. Bosconovitch and a vicious rival of Bryan Fury for his indiscretion and violence towards his clan and Bosconovitch.

Yoshimitsu seeks to appease his sword, which has been resonating with all the violence Pandora has caused. To do so, he joins Raven on his mission.


 * Confusion Fu: He employs a variety of very odd tactics; teleporting, rapid spinning backhands, and even harakiri.
 * Highly Visible Ninja: Much to Raven's frustration.
 * Honor Before Reason: He pulls a Leeroy Jenkins against Vega and Balrog becouse that's what warriors do apparently.
 * Legacy Character: Yoshimitsu is a title, not a name, that goes back as far as the first Yoshimitsu hundreds of years earlier in Soul Calibur. This leads to something of a Mythology Gag: Yoshi's involvement in the plot is kicked off because his demonic sword tells him of great evil, something that tended to cause the original Yoshimitsu to enter plots as well.
 * This also leads to a Missed Moment of Awesome, as in this game he does not share his ancestors' famous lines from Soul Calibur, such as "Shikisoku Zeku!"
 * Starfish Language: Rather than speaking English, Japanese or another Earth language, he speaks some type of alien language. English-speaking people commonly confuse it for Japanese though, and the lack of an English voice option makes it seem like a case of Non Dubbed Grunts.
 * Strange Syntax Speaker: The Yoda variety, of which it is.

Alisa Bosconovitch

Origin: Russia

Fighting Style: Designed by the Mishima Zaibatsu

Official Tag Partner: Lars

While she is well-meaning and non-violent, she obeys her programming first and foremost. She and Lars have grown close as a result of their shared experience. Alisa conceals a myriad of unique weapons in her body (such as chainsaws and rocket arms) as well as detachable body parts (she can use her head as a bomb, for instance).

Origin: USA

Fighting Style: Pure violence combined with some Kickboxing technique

Bryan Fury was once a corrupt police officer who worked alongside Lei Wulong in Hong Kong but died during a shootout. Rather than taken to be buried, Bryan's body was given to Dr. Abel, who resurrected him through cybernetic enhancements. He competed in the King of Iron Fist Tournament 3 to help Abel gather data on Dr. Boskonovitch's research into robotics. Later on, he reaches out to Dr. Boskonovitch himself, in order to modify his body so he may live on. Despite the aid, Bryan brutalized Boskonovitch and the Manji Ninja clan that he worked with, which is how the rivalry between Bryan and Yoshimitsu came into being.


 * Ax Crazy: Beats up pretty much anyone whenever he feels like it, whether or not they're on his side.
 * Blood Knight

 * Laughing Mad: Especially during his super.
 * Kick Them While They Are Down

 * Jack Attack
 * Super Prototype: Jack-X was designed to be a backup to the Jack-6 series.
 * Theme Naming: Keeping the tradition of naming the current Jack with the number of the current Tekken; this crossover has no number, but it has a X, and so it was born Jack-X.

 * Ass Kicks You
 * Drunken Boxing
 * Hypocritical Humor: "There's a Brit and a Kenyan? That's an odd combination."
