Introduction

Forrest Law is the son of Marshall Law, and first appeared in Tekken 3. They share the exact same fighting style.

Story

Tekken 5

Although Forrest does not participate in the fifth tournament, he plays a significant role. During this time, Forrest went for a joyride on Paul Phoenix's bike, despite his reservations against it, and ended up causing a major traffic accident. This is the reason why his father, Marshall, decides to enter the tournament in order to pay off the large sum of property damage and Forrest's hospital bills that arose from the situation.

Manual Version

Forrest is Marshall Law's proud son. Paul dragged him into the Tournament, but now he feels that this is an ideal opportunity to prove his strength to his father and to himself.

Offical Version

Living in his father's shadow... The proud son of Marshall Law, Forrest trains at his father's dojo to achieve Law's success and greatness. As a protective father, Marshall has forbidden his son from entering any contests outside the dojo. Marshall's long-time friend and competitor, Paul Phoenix, visits once every few months to spar with Marshall.

One day when Paul arrived, Marshall was away supervising the building of a new dojo. Paul insisted that Forrest join him in some training exercises. Forest declined knowing that his father would disapprove. But Paul wouldn't take no for an answer.

Unaware of Marshall's restrictions on fighting, Paul suggested to Forest that he join "The King of Iron Fist Tournament 3." Paul sold Forest on the idea by telling him he's a better fighter than his father. Forest knew his father would be angry, but he had to prove that he was worthy of one day inheriting the dojo. Marshall was enraged when he found out what happened. To him, it was as if his son had been kidnapped.
