Thanks. I forgot to add in a rough idea for what her character stage and theme would be like, but I’ll edit those in in a little bit.

Now, to create the next character I had in mind…

[Darc_Requiem]

My first new concept in a while. He’s a Dutch Kickboxer. He’s actually a fan of Sagat’s predecessor and the one unique quirk I gave him is this. His anti air special attack does more damage against aerial opponents than grounded ones. The opposite of how it usually is in Street Fighter.

Reasons to be in SFV:

Zeger enter the tournament solely to face off against Sagat. Sagat is considered the greatest kickboxer in the world. He defeated Zeger’s idol, Nuakan, to earn the title of Emperor of Muay Thai. If Zeger can defeat Sagat, he’ll be considered the greatest kickboxer in the world. With a victory of Sagat, Zeger seeks to not only honor his parents but earn the respect of his idol Nuakan. With Nuakan’s respect, Zeger hopes to be granted the honor of learning his signature attack. The invincible knee strike known as the Hanuman Kick.

Side Note:

• Zeger’s elbow based specials are named for rapid fire artilerry stickes.
• Zeger’s kick attacks are named after medieval Dutch melee weapons.
• Zeger is the antithesis of Sagat. While they both possess great range, Zeger’s style focuses on melee attacks. He’s more mobile than Sagat, but lacks his power.

Origins: Nanae grew up in Hakone, Japan. A tourist town about an hour outside of Tokyo known for it’s hot springs and traditional Japanese inns. Which is fitting because she is the only daughter of innkeepers. Nanae was reserved and quiet. The “ideal” daughter. The kids in the town teased Nanae. Her family was well off and she was “perfect”. They called her Yamato Nadeshiko. A usually endearing term denoting the “ideal woman”. However, they did not mean it as a compliment. The inference was that Nanae was perfect and thought she was better than them.

When she was a little girl, a famous wrestler stayed at her family inn. She’d never seen a wrestler before. As the wrestler and her training partners practiced in backyard of the inn, Nanae peered curiously out her window. She was completely enamored with what she saw. The wrestler noticed the curiously little girl looking at them from her window. Nervous, the meek Nanae quickly hid under her bed. A few moments later, she heard a knock at her door. Nanae remained still, trying to stay as quiet as possible. She could hear the door open and foot steps coming toward her. She closed her eyes. Suddenly she heard a “whooshing” sound. As Nadeshiko opened her eyes, a large woman was standing above her, holding up her mattress and box spring with one hand. It was Yoko Harmageddon. She smiled down at the frightened Nanae, offering Nanae her hand. Nanae took her hand.

From that point on, every year Yoko would vacation at the Sato family inn. Nanae would anxiously wait her return. Each time she visited the inn Yoko would show her a new move. Nanae would catch would ever matches she could and try her best to emulate what she saw. When she was old enough, Nanae decided that she would leave with Yoko. Knowing her parents wouldn’t approve. She wrote a long letter to them. Nanae left the letter on her bed and departed with Yoko for the IJWPW.

Fighting Style: Kinkou Ansatsuken (Balanced Ansatsuken)

Tone: Gouka is a calm and focused woman. Her fury was tempered by her defeat at her uncle’s hands. She forges a new path to surpass him.

Origins:

Gouka is the daughter of Gouken. She mastered her own style of defensive Ansatsuken. During her battle with he uncle (Akuma), she seemingly had him beaten. To her dismay he was merely holding back to test her. Gouka’s Mu No Hado based style was no match for Akuma’s true power. Her desire to slay her uncle and restore family’s honor over took her. Overwhelmed by the Satsui No Hado, she once again pressed Akuma into combat. Her raw Satsui No Hado style caught her uncle of balance. For a brief moment victory seemed to be at hand, however Akuma regained his balance. His precision with Satsui No Had overmatched his nieces aggressive passionate style. As he prepared to end the battle with the Shun Goku Satsu, Gouken intervened.

With a father and uncle locked in combat, the wounded Gouka retreated into the woods. She stumbled into a cave and fell unconscious. When she awoke, she thought back upon her failure. If she could combine the best elements of Mu No Hado and Satsui No Hado, she was sure that she could achieve victory. “It is not the tool but the wielder”, She thought to herself. That in mind, Gouka resolved to forge her own style. A balance between the two disciplines. That was years ago. No one has seen Gouka since…

Likes: Maki, Collecting Swords, Tacos, Chili Beans

Dislikes : Sushi, Thugs

Fighting Style: Shorinji Kempo and Rindo-Kan Karate

Tone: Carlos is serious and to the point. It is rare sight to see him smile or tell a joke.

Origins: Carlos is the son of Niten Miyamoto and Marisol Bracho. His father moved to Venezuela to run the South American operations of Metro City Motors. His mother was the daughter of the head of the Empreza Petrolera Venezolana (Venezuelan Petroleum Company).

Carlos was a bit of an outcast growing up. The combination of his affluent parents and mixed parentage made him stick out. This caused Carlos to get in a several fights. Even without formal martial arts training, Carlos held his own. His toughness, despite his background, garnered the respect of his adversaries. Soon he was the leader of his own “gang”.

Niten and Marisol sought to curb Carlos’ increasingly rowdy behavior. Niten thought that martial arts would be good way to instill discipline in their son. He knew Masaru, a Rindo-Kan Karate master, was in South America. Masaru heard tails of a hidden master living on the continent. Niten offered to use his resources to find this master if Masaru trained his son. Masaru agreed to these terms.

Under Masaru’s tutelage, Carlos’ behavior improved. His raw talent for martial arts made him an excellent student. Niten upheld his part of the bargain. He used his wealth to find this “hidden master”. He found multiple masters over a two year span. None were the master Masaru sought. Just when they both were about to give up the search. Niten’s investigator found a tip that this master was in Brazil. Masaru left to find and challenge this master. Masaru was defeated by the Oro the master of Senjutsu. Crestfallen, Masaru returned to Japan.

Marisol feared that Carlos would return to his rowdy ways. Niten shared her concerns. He decided to send Carlos to a boarding school in Japan. It would keep him away from wild friends and he could continue his training under Masaru. Masaru was still reeling from his defeat and did not wish to teach anyone. He recommended Retsu to Niten in his stead. Retsu was a master of Shorinji Kempo. That art shared several similarities with Rindo-Kan Karate.

Marisol traveled to Japan with her son. If he wasn’t in school. He was training with Retsu. She would keep Carlos in line while his father continued his work in Venezuela. Carlos would remain in Japan until he was 16. At which point, he moved to Metro City with his family. Metro City Motor’s North American operations were faltering. Due to his success in South America, Niten was tasked with returning the North American division to profitability.

Carlos would remain in Metro City until adulthood. He’d make eventually make friends with Maki and Mayor Mike Haggar. He’d help them rescue Maki’s father and sister before returning to South America. Like his first master, Masaru, Carlos sought to test himself other martial arts masters. Maybe he’d find he would find this “Sennin” and truly test how far he’s come.

Female Illuminati Boss Concept

Name: Semele

Summary

Nickname: The Imperatrix of Order
Sex: Female
Ethnicity: Cypriot
Height: 6ft 5in (1.96m)
Weight: 192lbs (87kg)
B/W/H: 40-28-39(102cm-71cm-99cm)

Hometown: Nicosia, Cyprus

Appearance: Semele is statuesque middle aged woman in peak physical condition. She radiates a divine aura and her physique perfectly sculpted like marble statue. Semele has long flowing, sandy blonde hair that is elaborately styled into a Bohemian Chignon Bun. Her eyes Olympic blue and her legs are an astounding 43 inches (1.1m) long. Semele has a flawless porcelain complexion. There is an oval shaped royal blue jewel in the middle of her forehead just above her brow line. Her attire consists of custom pure white Doric Chiton (Ancient Greek Robe) that comes down to the middle of her thighs. Semele’s upper arms are bare. She has golden colored bracers on her fore arms. Semele wears golden calf length buskins on her feet.

Likes: Order
Dislikes: Chaos, Failure

Fighting Style: Pankration of Order

Tone: Semele’s warm outward demeanor quickly turns cold when her objectives are not reached.

Origins: Semele is the product of generations of selective breeding. This was the traditional way that the Illuminati created exceptional candidates for leadership. The process was arduous. Detailed records of family lines and character traits were kept. As time progressed surrogates were used to increase the number of “perfect” candidates. This was how Semele came into being. Semele and her fifteen brothers and sisters were born on the same day. They were trained and educated together. Upon their sixteenth birthdays, a tournament was held. The siblings would fight to the death with the lone survivor being put forth as a Illuminati leadership candidate. Semele was the victor. Her reward for slaying those closest to her? A slot in another tournament of sixteen.

Semele trials and tribulations forged her into exceptional leader. They also gave her an interesting dichotomy of personality. She could be friendly, encouraging, and understanding. Boosting the moral of her followers and in an instant become cold, clinical, and merciless when presented with abject failure.

She ruled over the Illuminati for 18 years. During the first year of her reign the prophesied child was born. The child of red and blue, wielder of both fire and ice. He was to lead their organization to true glory. Semele took Gill, the child of prophesy, and his hot headed brother Urien under her wing. She trained and educated them both. Upon Gill’s eighteenth birthday she ordered him to fight his brother for the right to lead the Illuminati. Gill was victorious. Unlike Semele, Gill did not put down his rival as was their custom. He spared Urien. Semele disagreed with his decision. She thought it would sow unrest in the organization. She was right. Urien has continually plotted against his brother. After a decade of this chaos, Semele has decided she’s had enough. She would bring Urien to heel and lead this organization the way it was meant to be.

Likes: Ninja Training, Challenging Missions, Rafute (Okinawan Pork Rib Dish)

Dislikes: Dereliction of Duty, Lollygagging

Fighting Style: Muhi Ninjutsu (Peerless Ninjutsu)

Tone: Setsu is a serious young man whose chief focus is on his ninjitsu training

Origins: Setsu is originally from Naha city in Okinawa. When he was twelves years old, his parents were killed. Itsuo, a rogue member of the Glade of Ninja’s, was attempting to evade capture and caused their car to crash into a tree. Itsuo was also killed in the accident. Hyousuke, the ninja pursuing the rogue, took Setsu in. If the rogue hadn’t escaped him, Setsu’s parents would still be alive.

Setsu bore no grudge toward Hyousuke. He appreciated that a stranger would take him in and treat like family. To honor Hyousuke, Setsu became a very diligent student of Ninjitsu. He was already twelve and had a lot of ground to cover to catch up with the other boys his age. Setsu lived, ate, and breathed to ninjutsu. Hyousuke would have to force him to take breaks. He’d often discover that Setsu was training on his breaks. Setsu quickly ascended to the top of his class. “Muhi Shinobi” is what those that envied him call him. They meant it as an insult, but Setsu wore the moniker with pride.

Hyousuke, determined to broaden Setsu’s horizons, sent him off to Sarusuberi University. He had hoped that exposure to people his own age from outside the clan, would help him learn to relax and gain some hobbies. Upon reaching Sarusuberi University, the first thing Setsu did was form his own ninjutsu club. Hyousuke could only shake his head and chuckle.

Ending:

Unable to defeat Zeku, Setsu returns to Sarusuberi University to ponder the offer to join Zeku’s “Striders”. When he returns, he has found that the membership of his ninja club has skyrocketed. Almost all of the new members are girls, Setsu assumes they all joined up to learn self defense. An honorable endeavor, but he is completely oblivious to their true motives. One member in particular always remains close by him, she 's already a skilled ninja in her own right. Setsu is delighted to find an advanced training partner. Ibuki is mortified that club with the “hot guy” turned out to be a ninjutsu club. “Not Again!!” she yells as a confused Setsu looks on.

Stage:

Setsu fights in front of Shuri Castle

Notes:

I literally got bored and decided to turn the random Ninja from Ibuki’s Third Strike ending into a character. Lord help me.

Dislikes: Girly Things, Being Coddled

Fighting Style: Tai Ji Quan

Tone: Xia Shu is confident and tomboyish. Despite her fiery ki, she has a cool demeanor

Origins: Zhou Xia Shu is the youngest child of Zhou Jian. Jian was the partner of Dorai (Chun Li’s father). On their first day as partners, Dorai saved his life. He named his son, Xia Shu’s older brother, after Dorai as a sign of respect. Despite sharing his name Tong Mao (Dorai pronounced in Traditional Chinese), didn’t have a desire for law enforcement. That passion was passed onto his sister.

As a young girl, Xia Shu was near obsessed with becoming a police detective like her father. Jian was very hesistant to let his daughter follow in his footsteps. Dorai’s disappearance haunted him. He feared what would happen to Xia Shu if she crossed a powerful organization like Shadaloo. Jian tried to use martial arts as a distraction. Xia Shu was very good. Better than her father by the time she was 12, although he’d never admit it. While martial arts training actually helped her build a tight bond with her brother, it did not distract her from her dream. Hoping she’d find another interest, Jian sent Xia Shu to a college in Japan, Sarusuberi University was in a low crime area and away from the city. It seemed perfect to Jian.

Xia Shu is in her fourth year at Sarusuberi University. Her passion for justice still remained. Jian’s attempt to divert her down another path was unsuccessful. She formed her own “Detective Club”. While it was not a the most popular club, her unofficial “police force” became more adept at solving crimes than local law enforcement. One of her most talented members, Setsu, had his own martial arts club. Training with him allowed her improve her skills instead of just keeping them sharp. Although she’s notice an unusual uptick in his clubs membership…

Reasons to be in SFV:

Security balked at letting her in without a formal invite. Xia Shu made quick work of some pink gi wearing loud mouth, and used his invitation to enter the tournament.

Notes:

• Xia Shu means Summer Beauty
• Xia Shu speaks Mandarin, Cantonese, Fuzhounese, Japanese, and English
• She and her brother had a contentious relationship until their mother died, they’ve been close ever since.
• After her mother, Bao, passed away. Her father became over protective.
• Her brother, Tong Mao, runs a Tai Chi Quan school in Changhua City.
• When she was in high school, she was nearly mugged while wearing a dress and high heels. The robber almost escaped due to her cumbersome attire and she swore off wearing such things again.

Likes: Netball, Helping Others, Generosity, Nature

Dislikes: Resorting to Violence, Notoriety

Fighting Style: Secret Society CQC/Shadoloo Assassination Techniques

Tone: Vaite is a benevolent woman and reluctant fighter.

Origins: Vaite’s true origins are unknown. She washed up on the shores of Cape York near Bamaga, Australia a decade ago. Vaite was found by two foreign nationals. A middle aged couple living under false Australian identities. The couples appearance, the man, Andreas, was a blonde hair blue eyed Caucasian and the woman, Yasmin, was of African descent with dark brown skin, allowed Vaite to pass as their natural born daughter. The couple couldn’t have children of their own, in a cruel twist of fate both of them were infertile, and adoption could potentially expose their true identities. Vaite was a godsend.

Andreas and Yasmin knew there was something odd about Vaite. Vaite couldn’t remember anything. She wasn’t even sure if “Vaite” was her name. Her only memory is vague recollection on an elderly Melanesian couple pointing at her and yelling “Vaite!” She knew several languages. Despite being, from what they could tell, ten years old she was the same size as Yasmin. She was skilled in a martial art neither of them had seen in their extensive travels and capable of beating both of them in single combat. Although Andreas insisted that he was “letting” her win. Vaite smart. She picked up German and Somali from her parents without direct instruction.

Yasmin and Andreas began to wonder if she was one of their former employers projects. They both had seen such projects before and it was explain her exceptionalism. However, Vaite aged normally, she didn’t rapidly grow into adulthood. Her power, while strong, was not the dark energy that was often wielded by their prior organizations assassins. If she had been sent to kill them, they’d already be did. In fact, Vaite avoided using her strength if possible. Only baring it to aid in the defense of others.

Over the next decade, Vaite grew into a vibrant young woman. She graduated college at only 14 years of age. Her achievements began to garner wider attention. She could see that her growing prominence caused her parents concern. They had never told her of their former line of work but she’d figured that out shortly after being taken in by them. Vaite would forego any athletic or intellectual pursuits that draw too much attention. She thought that would keep them safe. However a hit squad of a half dozen elite operatives struck her family in the middle of the night. She easily took them down. Her parents though operatives were there for them. The data they recovered from the assailants proved other wise. All of their intel was on Vaite. They had come for her.

Reasons to be in SFV:

The clues hidden within the data discovered by Vaite and her parents pointed to secret organization. A secret society that had ordered her capture and the death of her parents. This information lead to the world martial arts tournament. Vaite would enter the tournament to flush out this organization. Find out why they wanted her, and take them down so she could get back to a normal life with her family.

Side Note:

• Vaite speaks Bislama, English, French, German, Kriol, and Somali

• Her adoptive parents are unsure of her true origin.

• Her adoptive father, Andreas, is 5ft 10in (1.78m), 161lbs (73kg) and from Germany. He has blonde hair and sapphire blue eyes.

• Her adoptive mother, Yasmin is 5ft 5in (1.65m), 122lbs (55kg), and originally from Somalia. She has smooth dark brown skin and thick black coarse/curly hair. She wears her hair in micro braids.

• The initially though she was Aboriginal Australian due to her use of the Krio language.

• However her name “Vaite” and use of the Bislama language means she could be from Vanuatu.

• Her stature, roughly 9 inches (23 cm) taller than a typical woman of Melanesian descent puts her origins further into question.

True Origin:

• Vaite is actually a genetically enhanced woman of German and Somali descent.

• Andreas and Yasmin were Shadaloo agents. Vaite learned the Shadaloo Assassination Arts from the two of them.

• There is a small circular blue gem with a golden diamond shaped core at it’s center implanted in Vaite’s sternum.

Andreas and Yasmin are Vaite’s actual parents. They previously worked for Shadaloo. After frequent collaborations, the pair fell in love. Marrying in secret, Andreas and Yasmin planned to leave Shadaloo and start a family. They were heartbroken to discover that neither of them were able to have children.

During their time at Shadaloo, Andreas and Yasmin were highly successful. This garnered them favor with several members of the organization. On one off the books mission, they retrieved an escaped test subject. They essentially saved the lives of the science team that had allowed the subject to escape. The grateful scientists asked if there was anyway they could repay Andreas and Yasmin. That is when the pair mentioned their desire to have a child.

One scientist in the group, Tanna, said they could give the pair what they desired. She only needed a sample of DNA from both of them. Unfortunately that scientist was an Illuminati double agent. Tanna saw a chance to craft an elite asset for organization and further her position. After she obtained the DNA samples, Tanna didn’t just combine them. She sought to perfect them. Tanna removed any flaws, improved the physical capabilities, and enhanced the intellectual ones as well.

Successfully crafted an infant of exceptional ability, Tana put her plan into effect. She sabotaged the labs, killing the rest of her team. Tana then called Andreas and Yasmin telling them that they all had been discovered. The couple arrived to see the facility to in flames. Thinking Shadaloo was onto to them, they fled the lab. Leaving behind evidence to indicate that they too were killed in the explosion.

Tanna took the child to Vanuatu to enact her plan. Vanuatu is an island archipelago country in the south Pacific Ocean. Vaite’s appearance resembled the native inhabitants of the island. It’s out of the way location limited the chance her treachery would be discovered. Tanna had the child trained and educated for decade. Satisfied with her progress, she booked passage to Australia via boat. From there, she’d fly to the closest Illuminati facility presenting her prize to Lord Urien to gain favor. On the way to Australia, a large typhoon swept through the area sinking the boat. Vaite would wash up on shore a short time later.

Appearance: Makoto is petite, fit young woman, with a well defined muscle tone. She has short black hair in wild bob style. Her eyes are brown.

She wears brown straw sandals on her feet.

Likes: Family, Fighting, Carpentry. Spreading The Rindokan Karate Style

Dislikes: Pickled Ginger, Being Mistaken For A Boy, Dresses

Fighting Style: Rindokan Karate

Tone: Makoto is fierce, focused, and determined young woman.

Origins: Makoto is the youngest daughter of deceased Rindokan Karate Master, Masaru. As her young girl, her father’s rural dojo had many students. Whenever attendance would dip, he lead his most senior student in charge and take a musha shugyo’(warrior’s pilgrimage) around the world. By defeating various masters around the world, he’d draw acclaim to the family school. Attendance would rise and popularity of Rindokan Karate would grow.

On his final musha shugyo, Masaru would suffer a crushing defeat against the great Sennin Oro. After returning home, the disheartened Masaru grew ill and eventually passed away. His senior students tried to keep the dojo going in his absence, but none of them possessed Masaru’s skill. Overtime the dojo’s attendance numbers waned. Eventually, even the most devote of Masaru’s disciples moved on. Makato’s grandfather Hisato and her brother Isao, tried to keep the school going. However her grandfather lacked the vigor of his youth and her brother lacked their fathers talent. Isao went into the business world to make ends meet.

As Makoto’s skill grew, the number of her training partners diminished. This was partially due to the school diminished notoriety and also to the few remaining advanced students growing tired of losing to Masaru’s “little boy”. Unable to defeat her in sparring or fights, the other students would often call the tomboyish Makato “little boy”. This angered her greatly, leading her to accidentally discover the Tanden Renki technique. Mocked for the last time, Makato grew red and proceeded to beat her fellow students senseless. While this made her feel better, it ultimately chased off the last remaining members of the school. It was then that Makoto decided to go on a musha shugyo of her own. Like her father before her, she’d best skilled masters and create a demand to train her family’s dojo.

Reasons to be in SFV:

Makoto has managed to keep the family dojo afloat thanks to her impressive showing at the last world martial arts tournament. The “little boy from Tosa” 's ability to take down fighters of far greater size drew knew students to the family dojo. This time Makoto aims to win the tournament to garner further acclaim and also break the face of anyone that mistake her for a boy.

Side Notes:

• Makoto’s new battle attire is a result of her tiring of being mistaken for a boy. During her most recent musha shugyo, Makoto was accosted by a police officer as she went into the women’s bathroom. She slugged the officer who didn’t press charges out of embarrassment

• Makoto in the Tosa Dialect. Giving her the Japanese equivalent of a “country bumpkin” accent.

• Isao, Makoto’s brother, used his share of their father’s inheritance to buy a local fishing business. This angered Makoto initially who wanted him to help pay repairs to the dojo.

• Isao uses part of his businesses meager profits to keep the dojo open.

• Hisato is the main instructor of the dojo. Although he’s not the fighter was in his youth. He still talent and a skillful teacher.

• After her last appearance on the world stage. Makoto used the prize money she gained to remodel the dojo. The minor fame she gained has garnered enough students for the dojo to break even without Isao’s aid.

• Makoto’s moves have very long names. I was unable to find full names for her Target Combos, V-Skill, V-Reversal, and new special attack Shikiri. So I did my best to replicate the length of her other attack names for consistency.

The collar and center of the vest has a gold trim. Retsu’s karategi top and vest are held together with a red karate belt that his tied at his left side. His hands and feet are bare.

Likes: Jelly, Gardens, Cleaning

Dislikes: Ghost Stories

Fighting Style: Shorinji Kempo

Tone: Retsu stern appearance hides his humorous demeanor. The brashness of his youth has been replaced with a dry sense of humor.

Origins: Retsu was a wild and brash youth. Unable to handle him in, his father sent him to study martial arts at the nearby Shorinji Kemp temple. The monks of the temple were able to reign Retsu in for a time. He excelled at the martial arts. Their discipline granted him a focus that he had lacked previously.

Retsu slowly surpassed his peers as he grew into adulthood. His contemporaries were no longer a match for him. Despite his youth, Retsu began to train with the masters of the temple. They were only people at the temple that could push him to his limits.

By the time he was middle aged, Retsu had surpassed everyone at the temple. He started training against multiple opponent’s at once to keep from becoming bored. That only satiated his drive for a short time. The brashness of his youth slowly returned. He began to dig into the temple archives. There he found multiple forbidden Shorinji Kempo techniques. Learning these skills was against the temple rules. Retsu began to practice these techniques in secret. Slowly mastering them all.

One day when Retsu was training against a couple of his fellow masters he lost focus. He accidentally used a few of the forbidden techniques to incapacitate them. The temples grandmaster was furious. After convening the temples masters, Retsu was excommunicated from the temple. He embarked on a musha shugyo (Warriors Pilgrimage). During his time roaming Asia, Retsu met and befriended several other masters. Ansatsuken Master Gouken and Rindokan Karate Master Masaru became the closest of those friends.

Listless he entered Sagat’s World Martial Arts challenge. As a member of the temple he was not allowed to enter such competitions. While his friendly sparring sessions with Gouken and Masaru were fun, a full contact tournament would allow him to truly show off his skills. Much to his surprised, he was defeated by one of Gouken’s star pupils, Ryu.

This caused Retsu to rethink his path. His hubris cost him a fight against relative novice several years his junior. It was only after that defeat did the lessons of the Shorinji Kemp Temple truly began to resonate with him. Finally taking those lessons to heart, Retsu disappeared into the mountains of Japan to rebuild his style from scratch.

[Counterstrike]

Well well took some time off there and looks like everybody else did too lol. I can’t blame you guys,the state of SFV was pretty sad.

The Season 4 roster finally released so it got me thinking again after seeing Lucia in action.

[Darc_Requiem]

Honestly, I’ve been trying to write a book. So just about all my character concept time has been wrapped up in that. I did a couple of SF3 concepts that I hadn’t really posted yet. I may get around to them at some point.

Well that’s impressive. Good luck on the book that’s a major undertaking.
