-> A Chinese martial artist, also known simply as, uh... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin "Martial]] [[CaptainObvious Artist".]]

* SheFu: Her fighting style is slightly more complex than the other generics, blending elements of various female characters' fighting styles, most prominently those of Xioayu, Leo and Julia.

->''Tekken'' Mobile features several generic enemy combatants representing various fighting styles. All of them can be unlocked.

* TheGenericGuy: None of them have storylines or personalities to speak of and most of them mimic animations from established Tekken characters.

-> A female brawler in leather, also known simply as "Biker".

* MartialArtsUniform: Just a plain old white karate gi.

* PerpetualFrowner: She has a rather mean expression on at all times and shows no other emotion.

* GoodOldFashionedFisticuffs: Similar to Miguel, his fighting style is basic street brawling, though with some added finesse thanks to his combat training.
* {{Revenge}}: Seeks Revenant's head on a plate to avenge his fallen comrades.

->'''Origin''': Russia

-> '''Appears in:''' ''2'', ''3'', ''5'', ''6''

-> '''Voiced by:''' Rumiko Varnes (T5), Creator/ErinFitzgerald (T6), Jessica Schwartz (Anime/TekkenTheMotionPicture, ENG)

->A girl orphaned in a conflict zone, she is spotted by Jack-2, who defies his programming and takes care of her. She later grows up to become a scientist for G Corporation.

Tropes associated with Jane:
%%* AGirlAndHerX: The X being a series of intelligent robots. %% Add more context to describe their relationship and what effect it has on them. %%
%%* HotScientist
* InterspeciesFriendship: With the Jacks, who retain their memories of Jane due to the Jack-2 chip installed on their programming.
* ParentalAbandonment: Her parents died in an unspecified conflict.
* SheIsAllGrownUp: Oh yes. Without the backstory, no one may ever know that the comely scientist who infiltrates Mishima Zaibatsu with Gun-Jack in his ''3'' epilogue is the same girl lounging with Jack-2 in his ''2'' ending.

!!Dr. Abel
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tekken_4_dr_abel.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:]]

->'''Origin''': Unknown

-> '''Appears in:''' ''3'', ''4''

->A MadScientist working for Mishima Zaibatsu as a rival of Dr. Bosconovitch. He is the creator of Bryan Fury.

Tropes associated with Dr. Abel:
* BadBoss: Abandons Bryan once he finds out that the latter fails to kill Bosconovitch and is slowly dying.
* {{Foil}}: To Dr. Bosconovitch. Bosconovitch is caring to his creations and robots in general, while Abel creates Bryan merely as a pawn for [[TakeOverTheWorld world domination]].
* GreenEyedMonster: Is frustrated that Dr. Bosconovitch gets more recognition than he does to the point that his first order to Bryan is to assassinate him.
* KillSat: Dr. Abel designed one such weapon and had it operational. He uses it to destroy Jack-2 in his ending, and after Jane repairs Jack-2 and upgrades him into Gun Jack, Abel again uses it in an attempt to destroy Gun Jack in his ending as well, in the process revealing himself. However, his attempt on Gun Jack fails due to the robot being equipped with energy DeflectorShields.
** His KillSat weapon becomes a ChekhovsGun in ''7'', when Heihachi (who remarks the weapon was Abel's legacy) uses it to blast Kazuya and Akuma while they're fighting atop the G-Corp HQ building. They both survive, however, and Kazuya [[ImprobableAimingSkills uses his Devil power's beam to shoot the satellite down]].
* MadScientist: Par excellence.
* TakeOverTheWorld: Creates Bryan as a part of a planned zombie army that he would use to rule the world. Unfortunately, Bryan is crazier than he thought.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Hasn't been seen since Bryan punches him in his ''4'' ending. However, he is mentioned by Heihachi in ''7'', so he may still be around.

->'''Origin''': Brazil

-> '''Appears in:''' ''3'', ''5''

->A master of capoeira, this man gives Eddy a purpose while the latter is incarcerated in prison by teaching him capoeira. He is also Christie's grandfather, and he instructs Eddy to teach Christie capoeira as soon as he is released.

* DotingGrandparent: Is one to Christie, as shown in her and Eddy's ''5'' ending.
* KilledOffForReal: Dies in Eddy and Christie's ''6'' endings.
* TheOldConvict: Incarcerated since before Eddy came and actually released two years after the latter.
* OldMaster: Of capoeira.
* SoapOperaDisease: His unspecified illness conveniently gives Eddy and Christie enough time to participate in two whole tournaments. Not that it stops him from dying.

-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/MaryElizabethMcGlynn

->A scientist and executive of G Corporation and Leo's mother. She is murdered by an assassin sometime before the events of ''6'', and Leo suspects that her superiors, including Kazuya Mishima himself, are somehow responsible.

Tropes associated with Emma:
* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler: Once worked with Mishima Zaibatsu before she resigned, possibly due to objecting to the Hybrid Gene experiments that put children's lives in danger.]]
* DeathByOriginStory: Her death sparks Leo's quest to find out everything about G Corporation [[spoiler: and Mishima Zaibatsu]].
* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: Leo remembers her fondly as a hardworking and caring single mother and regularly pays respects at her grave.
* GoodParents: To Leo. [[spoiler: Steve as well, if only briefly.]]

->'''Origin''': Japan

-> '''Appears in:''' ''6''

-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/HozumiGouda

->Lars' friend in the Tekken Force and one of the few to support his rebellion.

Tropes associated with Tougou:
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Lars. There has to be a reason why he goes into trouble to defect from a world-dominating conglomerate to ally with a mere rebellious general.
* KilledOffForReal: In Scenario Campaign.
* LastNameBasis: Thanks to being in the military, and as a result his given name is never revealed.
* MissionControl: Briefs Lars in several chapters of Scenario Campaign.
* NumberTwo: He is Lars' second in command within [[LaResistance the splinter Tekken Force group that rebelled]] against the main faction still under Jin's command.
* SacrificialLion: Dies just before the climax of the Scenario Campaign as a further motivation for Lars to go on and take down Kazuya and Jin.
* SatelliteCharacter: Has little characterization beyond being Lars' loyal lieutenant and friend.

[[quoteright:262:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tekken_bv_shin.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:262:]]

->'''Origin''': Japan

-> '''Appears in:''' ''Anime/TekkenBloodVengeance''

-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/MamoruMiyano (JP), Creator/DavidVincent (ENG)

->An enigmatic ex-Mishima Polytechnic student hunted by Jin Kazama and Kazuya Mishima for unknown purposes. Their assistants, Nina and Anna, respectively, send Alisa and Xiaoyu to infiltrate Kyoto International School, where Shin now attends.

Tropes associated with Shin:
* TheAgeless: [[spoiler: Thanks to the M gene.]]
* BlessedWithSuck: [[spoiler: The experiment with the M gene has made him immortal, essentially denying him the ability to die naturally, and makes him pursued by people curious about the experiment's machinations in the first place. Then it's revealed that the experiment's a distraction all along.]]
* BungledSuicide: Xiaoyu first meets Shin after he jumps from a building. She later learns that he has tried to kill himself multiple times, without success. [[spoiler: They're prevented by his immortality.]]
* {{Hunk}}: He's quite cut for an ordinary college student.
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: Heihachi swiftly disposes of Shin once his purpose as a lure is fulfilled.]]
* MrFanservice: A major reason Xiaoyu agrees for the espionage mission is because her target is a hottie.
* PowerTattoo: Sports a black tattoo on his arms [[spoiler: and chest, similar to the one possessed by Devil Jin. It glows green when Shin powers up the gene.]]
* RedHerring: [[spoiler: The M gene experiment is a lure Heihachi set up so Kazuya and Jin would personally face him, thus giving him chance to take their Devil Genes once again.]]
* RememberTheNewGuy: Shin was a classmate of Jin back during his high school days. However it's justified since Jin's school life beyond Xiaoyu is never explored, not to mention that he and Shin may not be close.
* ShowerScene: Other than for {{Fanservice}}, it's used to show Xiaoyu his tattoo, [[spoiler: a side effect of the M gene experiment]].
* SoleSurvivor: [[spoiler: Xiaoyu finds out that Shin is not the only one to become experimented with the M gene. He's just the only surviving one.]]
* TallDarkAndHandsome
* ToplessnessFromTheBack: During the aforementioned shower scene. Full-blown nakedness, actually; all the way to his rear end is shown.
* WhoWantsToLiveForever: Firmly holds this viewpoint. His first scene is a failed suicide, after all.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: [[spoiler: Once Kazuya and Jin are assembled, Shin is no longer of importance to Heihachi, who proceeds to break his back.]]

->'''Origin''': Unknown

-> '''Voiced by:''' Brian Stivale

->A journalist from an unknown country conducting an investigation into the Mishimas after the deaths of his family during the war caused by Jin in ''6''. He is the narrator of the Mishima Saga Story Mode in ''7''.

Tropes associated with the Journalist:
* BestServedCold: Keeps quiet about his anger at Jin for causing the war that killed his family. It is only when the latter is vulnerable that he attempts to take revenge, but is fortunately stopped by Lars.

* GoodParents: He cares for his son very much, and his death obviously angers him.

* NonActionGuy: Is one in the Story Mode of ''7'', being the only non-combatant in Lars' company.
