== Charactah Account ==
Once the adoptive brother of Hamato Yoshi, jealousy over Yoshi's marriage to Tang Shen, who they both loved, prompted him to discover his birthright in the Foot Clan, become evil, and attempt to kill Yoshi. A fire that broke out during the battle disfigured Saki and seemingly killed both Shen and her and Yoshi's daughter. Subsequently becoming the head of the Foot Clan, Saki moved to New York to hunt down and kill his old nemesis after seeing a news broadcast that implied that Yoshi is still alive.
The Shredder is known for fighting with reckless ferocity, showing little mercy to anyone who stands between him and his conquest. Even though he finds himself within a city swarming with various mutant creatures and aliens from different Dimensions, the Shredder generally views it all as nothing but a distraction from his ultimate goal; his vendetta against Hamato Yoshi. Even with the coming of the end of the world, the Shredder is only concerned with taking revenge on Yoshi, after which nothing else mattered to him. The world and everything on it can be destroyed for all he cared so long as he struck down his adopted brother. He once seemed to care about Hamato's biological daughter (Karai, who he still considers to be nothing but a trophy gained by one of his initial victories), but, after Karai realizes just how dishonorable the Shredder is, he figures that she barely serves a purpose anymore and has Tiger Claw lock her up in a Dungeon.
However, after Karai is accidentally mutated because of himself, the Shredder does become slightly sad, but doesn't take responsibly for his own actions. The Shredder is even wicked enough to tell Miwa lies about her mother's death in order to make her believe that Splinter was the one responsible for it.
