This is supported by the fact that Ogre's fighting style is completely formed by other character's fighting styles, many of which were those who did not appear among the cast of playable characters in Tekken 3, such as Wang Jinrei, Baek Doo San, Bruce Irvin, Lee Chaolan, and Kunimitsu. Because many characters from previous Tekken titles were not featured in Tekken 3, it is believed that their disappearance is due to being a victim of Ogre. Heihachi, having witnessed the power of Ogre sought to capture it in hopes of creating the ultimate life form.Īccording to official canon, Ogre attacked many world-renowned martial arts masters around the world. Soon after arriving there, Heihachi learned that his entire force had been obliterated by Ogre. One of the missions of the Tekken Force was to search an ancient temple located somewhere in Mexico. It states that many years after Heihachi had reclaimed control of the Mishima Zaibatsu, he formed the Tekken Force, his own military group.
Ogre is first mentioned in Heihachi Mishima's character profile. "It wanders the Earth in search of strong souls." It is never explained what Ogre's true purpose and intentions are, and it never explains how Ogre came into contact with the Aztec, who were said to worship him as a "Fighting God". "The legend of Native Americans says the Ogre was the war weapon which creatures from outer space left on Earth in ancient time.". In its first form, Ogre is capable of speech (As seen in its winning animations), but speaks in an unknown language. Very little information is given on the character's personality or story, but what it does describe says that Ogre "understands entire structures of all living and artificial beings, and absorbs them". It is still unknown whether the events in "Devil Within" are part of Tekken canon or not.Īlthough Ogre appears to be a wild beast, it is actually a sentient being. It features many more horns aligning its limbs and elongated head, and also has four large spikes protruding from the sides of its mouth. In this form it is a golden and aqua color, and more closely resembles a large dragon or dinosaur. Ogre's third form (From Tekken 5's Devil Within mode), is less of a drastic change from its first to second, but is much larger overall, appearing to be several stories high. Also, in this form, the area surrounding him will become pitch black (In Tekken 3), or extremely dark (In the arcade version of Tekken Tag Tournament). All of the jewelry Ogre wore in its previous form disappear, save for one leg armlet. In this incarnation it barely resembles a human, with a large frame, dark brown fur, a monstrous face, a tail, wings, horns, and a snake in place of a right arm. Ogre's second form (True Ogre), stands not much taller than its first, but is hunched over to an extent. It also has a small round shield attached to its left arm (The character Devil Jin, can wear this item in the customization feature in Tekken 5). It wears various types of Aztec jewelry and a large golden helmet/headdress with long purple hair. Ogre's first form resembles a tall, muscular humanoid with dark green skin. When defeated, he transforms into the game's final boss, "True Ogre," by absorbing the ki of either Heihachi Mishima or Jin Kazama. He is the main antagonist and the final boss of Tekken 3. Ogre, who also goes by the name Toshin in Japanese and known as The God of Fighting by the ancient Aztecs, is a fictional character in the " Tekken" fighting game series.
