Characters of the Street Fighter series

16780:: Family. One of those educated as a candidate for the organisation's presidency with Gil. Both parents of the candidates are intelligent, physically sound and talented. Urien's parents both hold doctorates, especially his mother, who is active in the field of sports mechanics and is herself an Olympic athlete. However, children who are selected as substantial candidates are separated from their parents when they reach the age of six and are taught imperialism by the organisation. Therefore, the people they feel closest to are the few other führer candidates with whom they have studied imperialism. Personality. As leaders of mankind, they have been trained in Imperialism from an early age, and their personalities are the very qualities of Emperors. However, the fact that he had to hand over his only führership to Gil is nothing but a humiliation for a man who was educated to be a führer. The day is not far off when he will realise the dark, writhing emotions that are growing deeper and deeper in his heart day by day, and will be troubled by his own conflicts. Fighting style The fighting techniques he has learnt are the culmination of the organisation's thousands of years of history and the secret traditions handed down only to the candidates for the presidency. It is considered impossible to master all of its fighting techniques, but Gil has progressed to the final level of mastery and has mastered one of its 66 secrets, the Resurrection. Among Urien's techniques, the Aegis Reflector is one of his profound techniques. 15706:: Family. Born into a farming family in rural Germany. His parents are both alive and well and he has two younger sisters, but since he left home at the age of 20 and moved to the USA, he has never returned to his homeland, although he has returned to Germany. After moving to the USA, she became a professional wrestler, but her manager was Poison, a former street warrior. He and Poison have split up on two or three occasions, but they are still best partners. Personality. With his huge body and monstrous strength, he has never been completely defeated in a fight. His confidence comes from this, and he is indifferent to recognising those around him. He has the vitality to go toe-to-toe with the bashers, even when he gets bashed as a result, and he seems to have a lot of allies because of his boldness. He is also quite tearful in detail. Fighting style. A giant of a man, standing 240 cm tall and weighing more than 200 kg, he wields his massive body with no difficulty thanks to his strong muscles. His wrestling techniques and throws have megaton-class destructive power, and his reach more than compensates for the slow start-up speed of his massive body. In particular, his powerful lariat with his log-like arms puts his opponents' sense of speed in disarray and puts them under so much pressure that they are forced to stand still. 16875:: I separated from my parents when I was a baby. He was raised by his grandfather, who runs a restaurant in Shanghai and has eight bosses from the underworld as his godmother. Together, they are now trusted as the young leaders of the town. Personality. The older brother (Yun) is a cheerful, active young general with excellent intuitive decision-making skills. The younger brother (Yang) is a calm and collected generalissimo who helps his elder brother with his insight and ability to see the bigger picture. Fighting style Both brothers were trained in various Chinese martial arts by their grandfather. They use a series of quick techniques to kill the momentum of their opponents, and use a strong, powerful, and deadly blow. The sharpness of their techniques is hard to compare, but the older brother, Yun (Hat), uses a momentary flash of inspiration to knock out his opponents with a series of gale-force moves. The younger brother, Yang, uses a series of techniques that are like the swell of a great wave, winding his opponents into his own pace and knocking them down. 6392:; though seemingly quite similar to Rose's Soul Power. Ingrid claims that she is the true bearer of what is called "Psycho Power", telling M. Bison that the Psycho Power is "her power" and that he has stolen it. Her power is so intense that if given the chance, she can actually break Ryu's madness if he ever succumbs to the Satsui no Hado. How M. Bison came into possession of the item is never explained, though it bears a resemblance to the crests on her head. When M. Bison is eventually defeated, she comments that a regular human being like him couldn't possibly control such power and takes the whole Psycho Drive with her as she leaves. Ingrid also possesses psychic abilities similar to Rose's. She addresses both Ryu and Rose by name, despite the two of them never revealing their names to her. Rose also cannot look into Ingrid's future, as she did with other Street Fighters. Ingrid's arcade ending reveals that she has the power of time travel, sending herself to the year 201X where she notices that Ryu "is up to something interesting". Ingrid's 9172:, another character he had developed. However they felt this design looked "more like a martial artist than a high-flying ninja". Another pass was done with a focus on a more traditional ninja, the next drawing giving her a full bodysuit and armor over her hands, ankles and crotch. Her appearance and outfit were refined further, giving her a look he described as cute "even though she looks shabby". Series artist and fellow character designer Kinu Nishimura took that statement to heart and emphasized that cute aspect of her art of Ibuki, as well as designing a school outfit for the character. Producer Tomoshi Sadamoto recalled that because they were located in Japan Ibuki was much easier to find reference materials than other characters. Her unique ponytail proved a bit of a problem for the animation team, as to do it properly she had "1.2 to 1.3x the character data" of other fighters, requiring several months to complete with Sadamoto himself helping at the end. 10924:

left him in a deep coma. He is shown watching as Ryu and Ken walk off, believing him, Gouken, to be dead. He is not concerned, however, what Ryu and Ken believe as he knows that their path is a righteous one and that he looks forward to reuniting with them once more someday.

In his animated ending, Gouken faces Ryu again, finding that his student is being overtaken by the murderous energy, defeats him and suppresses, after which he notices Akuma is in the area. He also appears again in Akuma's animated ending. In this scene, after Ryu has been defeated by Gouken, Akuma appears and challenges his brother to a fight to the death with the winner claiming Ryu. Gouken also reveals that he has reached a new level of mastery known as "the power of nothingness"

It is hinted in his original ending that Abel may have been abducted in his youth to serve as a "replacement body" for M.Bison, or created by Shadaloo as a prototype of Seth, a later replacement body. This is reinforced by dialogue from both Bison and Seth, who refer to him as "the one that got away". The appearance of his eyes change to resemble Seth's during the initiation of his Ultra Combo 1, Soulless. It is also hinted that Charlie was the person that helped him as Abel recognizes Guile's fighting style and Abel even comments to Chun-Li about the soldier that rescued him from Shadaloo. In Abel's rival encounter, Abel mentions that he recognizes Guile's Sonic Boom, leading to speculation that he may have spent time with Charlie. Abel's fighting style has elements from 8038:(a.k.a. Gypsies) that followed a white haired woman known only as Master. The woman had a glowing yellow lightning bolt on her forehead and a very similar hairstyle to Rose. When Rose was a child (roughly ten years of age), M. Bison, a former student of the Master, returned to the tribe and declared that he was going to kill Master, as her knowledge of Soul Power was a threat to him. Though Master fought bravely, Bison's Psycho Power (corrupted Soul Power) ultimately killed her and almost every other person present in the village.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, he left his village and wandered around the Moscow area, where he came into contact with Gil's organisation. Character.

Fighting style He is an aggressive fighter, idealising Ken's fighting style, but he does not have the sharpness of Ken's techniques.

Remy's rival match illustrates this, as his sudden appearance and challenge surprise Alex, who thinks him nothing but a troubled man.
