-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MR. BIG -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Birthplace: Unknown Birthdate: July 4, 1963 (36 years old) Height: 1.87 m (6') Weight: 81 kg (176 lbs) Blood type: B Hobbies: None Favorite food: Unknown Favorite sport: Unknown Most valuable: Southtown Hates the most: Pests Fighting style: Stick fighting Mr. Big has always been involved in the crime life since he was little, and due to his deep involvement in the high ranks of the mob, he is very skilled at managing the mob links. He has also learned to fight with two batons, one in each hand, and has become feared both in the crime circles and fighting circuits. Mr. Big now resides in Southtown, a city which fits his tastes: filled with crime and disorder, and where a mob leader like him could live the good life. However, he had to pay tribute to the greatest crime leader of them all, and practically the leader of Southtown: Geese Howard. So, Mr. Big decided to join the ranks of Geese's organization, and his experience took him very high, even being Geese's right hand man. Once, Geese was going to be out of the city for awhile, so he comissioned Mr. Big to take care of things in "his town", and that nothing should stand in their way. However, he was fearful that the Kyokugenryo Karate master, Takuma Sakazaki, could interfere in his plans, so Geese kidnapped Takuma's daughter, Yuri, and blackmailed him into working for Geese's organization. Then, Geese left, and Mr. Big was to keep an eye on things. He never considered that both Yuri's brother, Ryo, and his friend, Robert Garcia would go out to rescue her, but Mr. Big was so confident that he decided to take them on himself. This was received painfully by Mr. Big, who was defeated and Yuri had been rescued. Upon Geese's return, Mr. Big had to face him and tell him about the Sakazaki situation. He saved it though, since Geese was pretty busy himself with the Bogard brothers, who came to exact revenge from Geese from the death of their father. But Mr. Big never did forgive the Sakazaki clan, so he planned his revenge. His time came when Geese invited him to enter the King of Fighters tournament of 1996. Mr. Big wished for his chance to take his revenge on the Sakazaki family, but he soon realized that Geese was just using him to control the Orochi power. Enfuriated, Mr. Big tried to kill Geese at the end of the tournament by shooting at him. The shot was blocked by Billy Kane, Geese's personal bodyguard. Then, Mr. Big retires, and vows Geese he will return for payback some day! Mr. Big is pretty cocky and is so confident in his abilities that he sometimes gets carried away. He is also a pimp, always getting the women, and they all consider him such a stud! Mr. Big is also very respected in the inner crime circles, and is known to be one of the most powerful. He marks for death all those who defy him or challenge him. He is also pretty sarcastic when he's feeling good. *Fun fact = So, what does Mr. Big do to be such a pimp? It must be the shades...chicks dig the shades ^-^. Appearances: The King of Fighters '96 Other games: Art of Fighting, Art of Fighting 2
