==Summary==
Billy Kane is Geese Howard's right-hand-man and most trusted enforcer since a long time. Billy owes much to Geese and is very loyal to him. He earned his position thanks to his strength and expertise in bojutsu, to the point that he was Geese's champion during the second "The King of Fighters" tournament and the penultimate opponent Terry had to defeat.
After the faked death of Geese, Billy allied with Krauser for unclear motives, while apparently keeping afloat the legacy of his boss until his return.
Billy then assisted Geese in his hunt for the Jin scrolls, and remained at his side until his death at the end of the fourth tournament.
Billy maintained a relevant position within the Howard Connection, reason why the newly arisen crime lord White brainwashed him during the events of "Dominated Mind". White was then defeated by Alfred, thus freeing Billy from his control.
He is 179 cm tall, weights 77 kg, likes washing, egg dishes and punk music, while he dislikes order.Fatal Fury 15th Anniversary Website
