History Characters / Tekken3

* AdaptationalBadass: A certified badass no doubt, King got a lot more play as a nigh unstoppable competitor during the events of ''Bloodline''. Attacks barely seem to faze him, and he's treated outright as TheDreaded by a majority of the competitors for his silent attitude and intimidating look. He even manages to defeat Paul, who canonically went undefeated during the events of ''Tekken 3'' which ''Bloodline'' is an adaptation of. King ends up being the opponent Jin faces at the tournament final, and forces a very close fight which Jin wins by the skin of his teeth, just going to show further how undeniably tough King is.

* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Kazuya Mishima is responsible behind his father's death, and the Mishima Zaibatsu (led by Jin Kazama) deceived him the whole time he worked under them, letting his master die. He's hellbent on getting some against both. Subverted in ''8'' as he is no longer seeking vengeance on Jin, but rather helping him in their shared quest to end Kazuya's reign of terror.

* DealWithTheDevil: With Christie's grandfather fading fast due to an uncured disease, Eddy desperately strikes a deal with Jin: Jin would provide the old man a cure, and Eddy would join Mishima for a while. What Eddy didn't realize was that Mishima was spreading chaos and destruction all over the world, something that would haunt Eddy for the years to come. As if that weren't bad enough, Jin didn't come up with a cure as promised, so the next time Eddy reunited with Christie was at her grandfather's funeral.

* PoorCommunicationKills: In ''Tag II'', it's shown that Christie would be happy to mend fences with him, but he's too ashamed to face her.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Kazuya Mishima is responsible behind his father's death, and the Mishima Zaibatsu (led by Jin Kazama) deceived him the whole time he worked under them, letting his master die. He's hellbent on getting some against both.

Ultimately, he ends up leading a one-man assault on G Corporation, carving a path through Kazuya's soldiers and even his newest employee Lucky Chloe until finally meeting the man himself at the top of the Millennium Tower. Eddy, however, is no match for Kazuya whose Devil Gene has grown beyond the man's own limits efter his defeat and murder of his father Heihachi. As Eddy is beaten to within an inch of his life and about to be finished off by Kazuya, he is saved by the timely intervention of Yoshimitsu, who reunites him with a figure from his past who he has not seen in over 10 years. The figure advises Eddy that the path forward is not revenge, but redemption, and Eddy sets out to retrain himself in the ways of Capoeira. His training completed, Eddy realizes he should be using his skills to save as many people as he can from Kazuya's twisted regime. Seeking to atone for his misdeeds as a Tekken Force member, Eddy enters the 8th King of Iron Fist Tournament with renewed perspective and resolve.

* {{Face}}: Maybe we should be calling him a tecnico? Contrast the Armor Kings, who lean more towards being {{Heel}}s.

* DemotedToExtra: He has a history of this, in spite of his immense popularity with the playerbase. In ''4'', he was effectively replaced by Christie and reduced to a PaletteSwap of her (ironic, seeing as she imitated his fighting style) in the [=PS2=] version and doesn't participate in the story at all. He gets a larger role in ''5'' and ''6'', but his story direction in ''7'' certainly takes a... controversial turn, as he gets [[ButtMonkey humiliated by Lucky Chloe]] and it took until ''Fated Retribution'' for him to be added to the roster at all. While the previous games set up his new grudge against Jin, ''7'' [[StatusQuoIsGod sees him go back to his old motivation of hunting down Kazuya to avenge his parents.]]

** PlayedForLaughs in ''7''. [[spoiler:He's forced to become Lucky Chloe's backup dancer in her character episode, and he's far from happy about it]].

* {{Forgiveness}}: [[spoiler:In his intro against Jin in ''8'', Eddy does not blame Jin for his master's untimely passing, with the latter apologizing for not keeping his promise. To which Eddy replies he [Jin] doesn't have to apologize, since both of them need to face their own pasts to move forward.]]

* ChineseGirl: Only by name; she's culturally Japanese, having moved to the country by the events of her debut game.

* CameraAbuse: One of his intro poses in ''7: Fated Retribution'' has him dragging a construction I-beam and hurling it at the screen.

* GatlingGood: In his ending for ''Tekken 6'', he dual wields a Gatling Gun alongside a rocket launcher. Previously, in his ''5'' ending, he tried to shoot Yoshimitsu with a gatling as well. He empties one out in a win pose in ''8''.

* HateSink: In a world rife with other wicked or amoral characters like Heihachi, Kazuya, Feng, and the Williams sisters, Bryan stands out for his absolute lack of principles or standards, and doesn't even have a FreudianExcuse to explain his atrocious ways. He is simply a complete scumbag with zero redeeming qualities.

* EvilLaugh: One of his winposes in ''3'', oddly enough, is a sinister laugh.
