-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WOLFGANG KRAUSER -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Birthplace: Germany Birthdate: Unknown Height: 2.00 m (6'5") Weight: 145 kg (315 lbs) Blood type: A Hobbies: Collecting antiques Favorite food: Anything Favorite sport: Has no interest, but can play anything Most valuable: Chivalry Hates the most: Vanity, falsehood Fighting style: Combination of several martial arts Wolfgang Krauser is the latest heir to the Strolheim bloodline, which has produced a very long line of terrible dictators, which besides being a threat for Europe in past centuries, they have also been distinguished as admirable warriors. Krauser is now aimed to be the most powerful in his family, as his strength is more than a match for many fighters. Some say that Krauser even killed his own father to gain the title of heir to the Strolheim clan, but one fact remains true: Krauser lives to fight worthy opponents, and trash them and claim honor for the Strolheim way. Since very young, and surrounded by a middle-age climate, Krauser learned the tradtional gentleman values, but he is very different in the battlefield. Having been trained by his father, Krauser has learned to wield the inmense power that was inherited to him. But Krauser was not satisfied in just practicing. He wanted to prove what was going on in the rest of the world. When Krauser grew up, he began to do some random travels to different places in the world, in order to face the strongest fighters. Krauser had no fun in destroying them, and once he returned to his castle in Germany, he dedicated himself to listening to his personal orchestra. Such was Krauser's life, always bored with the lack of competition...until one day. Krauser was informed about a man named who had defeated Geese Howard, the main crime leader of Southtown. Krauser personally knew Geese, and he was surprised somebody could defeat him. His blood boiling with excitement, Krauser decides to once again travel the world to meet this man. Krauser met several people whom he considered to be the candidates for having defeated Geese, but none where as worthy. Some challenged Krauser too, but he just blew them away. The power and skills Krauser had were fearful. Being able to devastate an entire group of fighters in just a few seconds, Krauser did not last long in passing undetected by several fighters who wanted a shot at him. But one of them was the only man worthy to fight him: Terry Bogard, the man who had defeated Geese. The battle ensued in Krauser's castle, where Krauser and Terry displayed an inmense show of power and speed. The battle was very even, both fighters enjoying the most out of the fight. Krauser delivered his best blows, but Terry resisted, he too giving away terrible hits. However, soon Krauser was getting tired while Terry was still up and going. While Krauser had lost his time fooling around, Terry had gained much experience and skills from his past battles, and was able to defeat Krauser at the end. Nothing was heard from Krauser until 1996, where he joined Geese and his lackey, Mr. Big, and formed a very powerful team. Krauser wished to fight Terry again, but he was also very excited to fight all those other great fighters. Even though Geese was using him to take over the Orochi power, Krauser had a great time. He now realized how Terry got so good last time, and decides to fight for fun as well, as he too, extracts experience from the battle. Some may say Krauser is an evil and ruthless man, but this only happens in the battlefield, where Krauser displays an incredible brutality. In real life, Krauser is a honorable man, always using his rights as a gentleman. He always wears the Strolheim armor wherever he goes, disposing of it when he fights. He loves to fight and defeat worthy opponents, but sometimes his strength is so great few people can resist it. *Fun fact = Krauser seems to get his payback when he defeats Terry in RBS, and this also happened in the second Fatal Fury anime. It seems that Krauser is the only man who can brag defeating Terry!
