** The official English language ''Tekken 6'' site lists her as being Indian. By the way, whereas most of her move names in the American and European version are of Sumerian or Babylonian origin, those in the Japanese version are borrowed from at least half a dozen different mythos, including Greek, Celtic and Norse.

A Spanish fighter with no style. Considered to be a {{Jerkass}} amongst his peers, but has a soft spot on his sister. When his sister announced that she's getting married, Miguel attempted to MurderTheHypotenuse, but backs down [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy for the sake of her happiness]]... until the wedding day, whereas the Mishima Zaibatsu bombarded the wedding, killing his sister and sending Miguel into a RoaringRampageOfRevenge. He then enters the tournament to beat down Jin, who ordered such a thing.

* BadassNormal: Despite having absolutely no combat training, he manages to defeat the entire Tekken Force by himself in his ending (which is almost certainly canonical.)

to:

** Sorry, he doesn't say that. Instead, in Scenario Campaign, when he reaches Jin, he lays out the deaths of his sister and his [[LaResistance comrades-in-arms]], and pretty much dares him to offer a justification. Jin's non-answer ''definitely'' doesn't impress Miguel.
* BadassNormal: Despite having absolutely no combat training, he manages to defeat the an entire Tekken Force squadron by himself in his ending (which is almost certainly canonical.)). Please note that while they have body armor, he doesn't. [[CurbStompBattle He still treats them like rag dolls.]]



* LaResistance

to:

* LaResistanceLaResistance: And if you look carefully at his dialogue in the latter part of Scenario Campaign--specifically, his statements to Eddy, Nina, and Jin about avenging his fallen comrades--it certainly looks like there may have been an off-screen alliance of the Resistance and Lars's own renegade Tekkenshu unit (once Lars and Alisa finished stomping some sense into them that they needed better numbers to have a chance against Jin and Kazuya, anyway).

Presumably, it was necessary for one of her order to stay in there to properly maintain the newest seal on Azazel. Perhaps an oblique form of SealedEvilInADuel?]]

* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: In his ''2'' ending, Baek sees a picture of his father and fondly remembers the time they spent together. This shocks him out of his semi-UnstoppableRage and [[LawfulGood causes a "for-the-best" change in his characterization]].

Heihachi's [[MoralityPet pet grizzly bear]]. He has trained with Heihachi throughout most of his life, and has a strange fondness for watching television. Is a constant pain in Paul Phoenix's ass, much to Paul Phoenix's dismay. After ''Tekken 2'', the original Kuma passes away, allowing for his son (also named Kuma) to take his place from ''3'' onward. He loses to Paul in the events of ''Tekken 3'', which leads the second Kuma to go back into the woods to train on his own. Later he would learn of the King of Iron Fist Tournament 4 by looking in some person's house and seeing it on the TV.

* ShoutOut: She can be customized to look like [[StreetFighter Karin]] and her rivalry with Asuka even mirrors the one with Sakura.
