Date: 2024-01-01

Clown is the sub-boss in the first game. Like his name suggests, he is a clown from a traveling circus who fights with his quick agility as a circus performer. His special moves include a rolling attack and card throws. In Karnov's Revenge, he forms his own circus called "Clown's Circus" and participates in the second tournament to become stronger than Karnov, as well as to find an "attractive male fighter". In the Japanese version of the series, Clown is depicted as a homosexual who is attracted to younger men. While the English localization of the first two games removed all references of Clown's sexuality in the game, the manual for the Neo Geo home version still mentions his preferences for men. Clown is a member of a circus and is mentioned to be a disciple of Karnov. He has established an independent circus at the time of Karnov's Revenge. Also at this time it is revealed that Clown has his own castle, where he posesses many different animals. In one of the winquotes Clown mentions that he has a pet poodle. He is an ugly man both inside and out, Clown is a broken but narcissistic goon with a beauty superiority complex. He is hated by every other fighter for his creepy behavior including his attraction to young boys, and is implied to be homosexual.
