Ultimate[/i])[/color][/sub][/center] Terry is a Caucasian man with toned physique and long blonde hair that he often keeps in a ponytail. He usually sports a casual getup consisting of a red sleeveless jacket with a large star emblem decking its back, a white shirt with torn sleeves, black biker gloves, blue vintage jeans, red-and-white sneakers, and a baseball cap of the matching color scheme. A logo written ‘Fatal Fury’ decks the white front of the cap, making it the most striking feature of his iconic outfit. [img][/img][center] _____________________________________________________ [b][h3][color=1E90FF]PERSONALITY[/color][/h3][/b][/center] Despite his rocky past, Terry is a charismatic, happy-go-lucky every man who’s easy to get along with just about anybody. Terry is playful and would often quip on his opponents during their matches. He never bears an ill-will towards anybody other than the murderer of his surrogate father, [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Geese_Howard]Geese Howard[/url], and the outright malicious hitman, [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Ryuji_Yamazaki]Ryuji Yamazaki[/url]. A kindhearted man and a role model to many, Terry appears to be forgiving at times. Despite what Geese did to his father, he still takes his son, [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Rock_Howard]Rock Howard[/url], under his wing after the notorious kingpin chose to [i]abandon[/i] his family, attempting to bury the hatchet between them. Terry is also known to be a selfless individual. He’s willing to put his life on the line when necessary. [url=https://youtu.be/nMxARsyc2VU?si=HhY2e3GQwtAVi-3W]The conclusion of the King of Fighters 2000 saw Terry staying behind the collapsing NESTS base to give room for his teammates to escape.[/url] Fortunately, it was revealed that he subsequently survived the collapse. [img][/img][center] _____________________________________________________ [b][h3][color=1E90FF]BIOGRAPHY[/color][/h3][/b][/center] Following the brutal demise of his surrogate father at the hands of the notorious Geese Howard, Terry and his brother [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Andy_Bogard]Andy[/url] went on a decade-long training to exact their vengeance. Having learned chi-gathering techniques from the Hakkyokuseiken school, Terry traveled the States to extend his training, competing in numerous street fights and developing new techniques throughout the journey. Alongside Andy and Muay Thai champion [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Joe_Higashi]Joe Higashi[/url], he returned to South Town to enter the annual [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/The_King_of_Fighters_(tournament)]King of Fighters[/url] tournament hosted by Geese. The trio would go on to defeat many of South Town’s martial arts greats, including Geese’s champions. However, only Terry managed to reach the finals to face Geese atop of his [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Geese_Tower]Geese Tower[/url]. It was a brutal scuffle, but eventually, Terry managed to gain the upper hand, as he sent Geese out of the tower with a devastating assault. The Hungry Wolf emerged victorious, successfully avenging the death of Jeff Bogard and becoming the newly crowned King of Fighters. Sooner than later, Terry’s victory caught the attention of [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Wolfgang_Krauser]Wolfgang Krauser[/url], and just a year later, the earl of the wealthy Stroheim family held his own King of Fighters tournament. As Krauser took the tournament to the global stage, he invited Terry to participate alongside other martial artists across the globe. As it was the prior tournament, Terry managed to make the cut to the finals, facing the sponsor himself. The battle was intense, yet Terry managed to beat Krauser clean, as the entire world witnessed the champion defend his title. While on a vacation in Italy, Terry and his comrades, Andy and Joe, received the invitation letters to the King of Fighters ’94 tournament sponsored by [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Rugal_Bernstein]Rugal Bernstein[/url]. The rules were changed with the tournament now adopting the team-based approach, requiring every participant to form a team of three. Sensing the possible involvements of Geese and Krauser, the trio decided to enter the tournament as [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Team_Fatal_Fury]Team Fatal Fury[/url]. Although they didn’t win the tournament, the team continued to become the mainstay of every team-based King of Fighters to date. The members might’ve changed a couple of times, but Terry will always be present as the team leader. [img][/img][center] _____________________________________________________ [b][h3][color=1E90FF]ABILITIES, SKILLS, AND WEAKNESSES[/color][/h3][/b][/center] [hider=ABILITIES] [img][/img] [list] [*] [b]Special Moves[/b] – Terry is capable of drawing ki-energy to create powerful attacks listed below: [indent][list] [*] [url=https://imgur.com/a/fbQawxi][b]Burning Knuckle[/b][/url] – Terry spreads his arms out, then dashes forward with a lunging fist covered in blue flame. [*] [url=https://www.fightersgeneration.com/news2024/char3/fatalfury-anime-terry-vs-geese.gif][b]Power Wave[/b][/url] – Terry flails the ground to create a shockwave crawling in his opponent’s direction. The stronger variant of this move is called [url=https://imgur.com/a/n2EAwON]“Round Wave,”[/url] where Terry erupts a heavier shockwave with shorter range. [*] [url=https://imgur.com/a/cRfDSdo][b]Rising Tackle[/b][/url] – Terry sends his opponent flying with an upside-down drilling kick, arms spread and one leg tucked behind the other. [*] [url=https://imgur.com/8UzFyVg][b]Crack Shoot[/b][/url] – Terry performs an acrobatic leap and swings his leg overhead, slamming his calf across his opponent’s shoulder. [*] [url=https://imgur.com/a/wyy0ZnN][b]Power Dunk[/b][/url] – Terry delivers a knee to the gut before sending his opponent leaping with him, slamming them back across the ground with a fiery flail as if he’s performing a slam dunk. [*] [url=https://imgur.com/a/YmA7Is1][b]Power Charge[/b][/url] – Terry lunges in his opponent’s path, tackling them with a devastating shoulder charge. [/list][/indent] [img][/img] [*] [b]Desperation Moves[/b] – Stronger variations of special moves, Terry can create explosive attacks listed below once obtaining a gauge stock: [indent][list] [*] [url=https://imgur.com/a/Yk5bOYC][b]Power Geyser[/b][/url] – Terry flails the ground to summon a volcanic surge of energy capable of sending his opponent flying away. The stronger variant is called [url=https://imgur.com/a/p0qX2uh]“Triple Geyser,”[/url] where he flails the ground thrice with alternating fists to create a geyser with each flail. Unlike other Desperation Moves, executing Triple Geyser costs about two gauge stocks. [*] [url=https://www.fightersgeneration.com/news2022/char2/terry-bogard-buster-wolf-smash.gif][b]Buster Wolf[/b][/url] – After asking “are you okay?” to his opponent, Terry strikes a pose [s]as if he’s a JoJo character[/s], then lunges in their direction similar to that of “Burning Knuckle.” Once connected, he’ll extend a fist to fire an explosive spark of energy against his opponent, launching them far far away. [*] [url=https://imgur.com/a/4zDyrze][b]Senpuuken[/b][/url] – The secret technique of the Hakkyokuseiken school that [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Tung_Fu_Rue]Tung Fu Rue[/url] passed onto Terry and his surrogate father. As the blue aura surrounds him, Terry spins in circles, forming a wind vortex surrounding him that’ll later be used against his opponent to knock them away. [/list][/indent] [img][/img] [*] [b]Climax Move[/b] – Stronger variation of Desperation Moves described below that requires all three gauge stocks for activation and is far more exaggerated in its execution: [indent][list] [*] [url=https://media1.tenor.com/m/26Sh_xz4zU4AAAAd/terry-bogard-king-of-fighters-xv.gif][b]Stardust Ignition[/b][/url] – For starters, Terry taunts his opponent with a pointing finger as a swirling light surrounds him, then performs a shoulder tackle similar to that of “Power Charge.” Once connected, he’ll graze his fiery knuckles from across his opponent’s gut all the way to the torso, exerting an enormous swirl of energy to carry them away. [/list][/indent] [img][/img] [*] [b]Advance Mode[/b] – While activating Advance Mode, Terry will strike a pose, as a golden energy flashes around him. This will increase the amount of damage his attacks might inflict, as well as helping him endure lesser impact from his opponent’s attacks. However, this mode would only last for so long, and by the time the flashing energy fades, his abilities revert back to normal. [img][/img] [*] [b]Extra Mode[/b] – While activating Extra Mode, Terry will take a stance, as he centers the surrounding energy around him to charge his super meter. A blue, ever-illuminating aura will circle him, the more he charges himself with energy. Once the super meter is filled and a gauge stock is obtained, Terry can use the energy to execute one of his desperation moves against his opponent. [/list] [img][/img] [/hider] [hider=SKILLS] [img][/img] [list] [*] [b]Martial Arts Mastery[/b] – Terry is a skilled hand-to-hand combatant. He’s mastered various martial arts disciplines, including boxing, karate, kungfu, kickboxing, street-brawling, and Hakkyokuseiken. This impressive feat allows him to easily adapt to other practitioners of different fighting styles. [*] [b]Enhanced Sense[/b] – Terry’s sharp instincts allow him to sense anybody nearby without having to look at them. [*] [b]Enhanced Durability[/b] – Terry is capable of receiving stiff punishing attacks and shrugging them off like they are nothing. This is proven to be helpful against brutes like Krauser and [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Grant]Grant[/url]. On top of that, he’s also shown to be surviving a collapsing structure on two different occasions: during [url=https://youtu.be/FHhzmrWSVuI?si=vaybugle9-YTlXr7]The King of Fighters ’99[/url] and 2000. [*] [b]Enhanced Reflexes[/b] – Terry’s sharp reflexes allow him to anticipate any attack swiftly and precisely. To some extent, this also allows him to [url=https://youtu.be/t_TRnCYuF6A?si=r8Nm7Jgo9kh-W53H&t=7m11s]dodge a firing bullet in time.[/url] [*] [b]Survival Instinct[/b] – Growing up in the mean streets of South Town helps Terry develop a strong survival instinct that prevents him from whatever the possible dangers lurking within the city. He also possesses an extensive knowledge of what goes on in South Town, occasionally assisting his [i]partner[/i] [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/Blue_Mary]Blue Mary[/url] in her investigations. [*] [b]Leadership[/b] – Terry possesses extensive experiences leading his very own Team Fatal Fury in the King of Fighters tournaments. [/list] [img][/img] [/hider] [hider=WEAKNESSES] [img][/img] [list] [*] [b]Knockout[/b] – Like other fighters, Terry is prone to getting knocked out when he’s running out of health. When entering this state, he’ll remain unconscious for a while before having his health fully recovered. If the fight lasts more than a round, he’ll be recovered automatically upon entering the next round. [*] [b]Parry[/b] – Focusing on the offenses can often come with risks. Terry’s offensive approach to a fight often allows his opponent to parry his attacks on the spot—moreso, when he throws a punch, a kick, or executes a physical special move. When parried, his attacks will deal with little to no damage depending on the severity of them. [*] [b]Stun[/b] – Like other fighters, Terry is prone to getting stunned. This could happen when his opponent showers him with excessive rounds of attacks which he fails to counter. When entering this state, Terry will take a moment to regather his strength, dazed and unable to retaliate. Depending on the severity, it’ll usually take a moment until Terry is fully recovered. [*] [b]Tardy[/b] – Don’t expect Terry to come at time because, most likely, he won’t. It’s no secret that he’s one of the tardiest people in all of South Town. [url=https://snk.fandom.com/wiki/The_King_of_Fighters_XIII/Team_Stories#Fatal_Fury_Team]The best instance is when he reunited with his teammates for the King of Fighters XIII tournament.[/url] He came half an hour late to their rendezvous, much to Joe’s annoyance.
