King ll

King (キング Kingu) is a character in the Tekken series, and the successor of the first King, who was killed by Ogre. King II first appeared inTekken 3, and he has returned in all the other Tekken games after Tekken 3. The first Armor King taught King how to fight before The King of Iron Fist Tournament 3.

Like his predecessor, King II is someone who cares greatly for the orphanage (as he himself was a child there) and earns income for it by wrestling. Though he is considered as someone calm and disciplined, nearly every prologue given to him involves him attempting to avenge someone and is blinded by anger and fury. As a side job, he currently runs the mixed martial arts gym, Wild Kingdom, alongside Marduk. King shows great respect for other fighters especially his predecessor and his mentor. He has also been shown to be very forgiving as he had forgiven Marduk for killing the first Armor King and for taunting him using the black jaguar mask. Like Marduk, he does not know the second Armor King's true intentions and is rather confused considering the death of the first. Like his predecessor, King has his moves and chain throws. He overall has the most chain throws in the entire roster of Tekken and also has the longest and most damaging chain throw. He also has various real life professional wrestling moves, throws along with those present in the gaming world. He also has many strong and powerful throws aside from his long chain throws and is renowned in the series for said throws. King is overall a man who has many obligations in life and has a strong determination for personal tasks but also looks at the repercussions. King had nearly killed Marduk at the end of the fourth tournament but chose not to. He later became friends with Marduk after defeating him in the fifth tournament. He's also determined to keep the orphanage started by the first King alive.
