[edit] Introduction
Ogre is the sub boss in Tekken 3. Ogre is the Aztec God of Fighting infused with mythical powers. Despite not being able to defy gravity during gameplay, Ogre can be seen doing this in animations shown both before Ogre fights an opponent and after Ogre defeats an opponent. Also, Ogre can absorb souls to increase his power (like he does to Heihachi Mishima or Jin Kazama if Heihachi is the one that defeats Ogre in Tekken 3), depending on how strong the soul is. Heihachi Mishima was after Ogre to use his blood on himself, hoping to enhance the action of the Devil Gene.
[edit] Fighting Style
Ogre's fighting style is mostly a combination of moves from other Tekken characters. Ogre uses moves from characters such as Anna Williams (most of her crouching techniques), Armor King (Burning Knuckle), Baek Doo San (Hunting Hawk), Bruce Irvin (Foot Bazooka), Jack and Jack-2 (the throw where Jack / Jack-2 lifts his opponent over his head, turns around slightly, and throws them to the ground), Jun Kazama (Windmill Kick), Kazuya Mishima (Heavy Body Blow / Demon Godfist), Kuma (the "Bear Hug" grab), Kunimitsu (two of her moves that require using her dagger (f,f,N+2 and b+2)), Lee Chaolan (Shin to Head Kick), many Mishima Style Fighting Karate moves (Flash Punch Combo, Demon Slayer, and others), and Wang Jinrei (his "Power Punch" attacks). Some of the moves that Ogre stole from other Tekken characters have had their commands changed. An example of this is Jun Kazama's "Windmill Kick". The command for this move for Jun is "B+3". The command for this move for Ogre is "U/B+3". However, Ogre does have a couple of unique moves (such as f,F+2).
[edit] Trivia
- In the Japanese version, Ogre is written as Toshin (闘神). "闘" means "fight" or "war", and "神" means "God". The Japanese call it "Ogre", too.
- Ogre is thought to have attacked and killed Jun Kazama and other Tekken characters because those characters disappeared from the Tekken games and Ogre has some of their moves.
- Ogre/True Ogre is rumored to appear as 1 of the 4 bonus characters in Tekken 6.
- Ogre becomes a playable character in Tekken 3 after beating the game eight times.
[edit] Story
The God of Fighting... The legend of Native Americans says Ogre is the war weapon which creatures from outer space left on earth in ancient time. It understands entire structures of all living and artificial beings, and absorbs them. It wanders the earth in search of strong souls.
This is Ogre's semi-human form. This human-like creature uses the moves of several Tekken fighters. As True Ogre, Ogre's true form, Ogre can still use the moves that he had in his previous form, as well as some extra moves like flying and breathing fire.
[edit] Ending Animation "Awakening"
Ogre has successfully transformed into his true form, True Ogre, and bursts through the temple. Tekken Force helicopters try to contain him only to be destroyed. True Ogre roars as the temple burns behind him.
Ogre was featured as a playable character in Tekken Tag Tournament, a non-canonical Tekken game. This is Ogre's last appearance as a playable character.
[edit] Ending Animation
Ogre picks up an unconscious Jin Kazama with one hand. He holds him up and looks at him for a few seconds. Then, Ogre notices something, turns around, and drops Jin. It is revealed to be Unknown, who is shown without the wolf-like creature. Unknown stares at Ogre, and Ogre stares at Unknown. This ending takes place in Ogre's stage.
Note: A fight is probably about to happen, but this ending animation ends before showing anything else happening.
