Bruiser Khang

Bruiser Khang, also known as Mighty Kongman, is one of the main characters from the Tales of Destiny series.
== Charactah Account ==
The reigning champion of the Neuestadt Arena, he often acts like a jerk and a showoff. However, he's a good person deep down, and has a crush on Philia. He suffers the same fate as Leon; in the original game, he was an irritating and unsympathetic bonus character, but in the remake he was rewritten into a very entertaining (mandatory) addition to the party.
Due to his lack of character development, or rather dialogue, in the original version, Khang is seen as a rather simple character. He is hot tempered and has a strong sense of rivalry, especially against Stahn, who he sees as an opponent of equal strength, after defending Ilene and successfully defeating him within Neuestadt's local arena. He holds his title of Champion with extreme pride, and his catch-phrase is literally "I'm the champion!".
In the PlayStation 2 version of the game, however, he is expanded to have more of a backstory toward honesty, which extends to him holding his title of champion through honest means outside of fixed-matches. He also acts as both comic relief and as a foil who is willing to keep others in line if they act too brashly from their emotions, especially toward Stahn's younger nature. He also harbors an unrequited crush on Philia.

== Trivia ==
* While he is mostly referred as "Khang" within the localized original version of Tales of Destiny, his name in the menu screen is listed as "Bruiser".
* In the remake versions of the game, Khang appears as the final enemy during Rank 3 of the arena, representing the exhibition match of that rank. If the player participates as Khang, he or she is forced to fight an effeminate version of himself, complete with heart tattoos and a high-pitched voice. During Rank 4 of the arena matches, Khang appears briefly at the end before being caught by surprise by Lilith Aileron, who proceeds to attack him and knock him out with a single attack, before replacing him as that rank's exhibition match.
* Khang makes a cameo appearance in Tales of Eternia, appearing in the city of Tinnsia, where he challenges Reid Hershel to an eating contest.
* In Tales of Destiny 2, a portrait in Heidelberg's museum reveals that "Mighty Kongman" is merely Khang's self-imposed stage name, while his real name is private. In the same description, it states that Khang contributed to the reconstruction of Neuesdadt after the events of Tales of Destiny, becoming a spokesperson for the Delegate of Fitzgald. He is also revealed to have written an autobiography titled, Me and My Fist.
