## Appearance

Jin Kazama is a muscular young man of Japanese ethnicity. He has black hair that spikes at the back of his head, similar to that of his father, Kazuya Mishima. He also sports a fringe like his mother, Jun Kazama. Jin's face also strongly resembles his mother's. One of Jin's most prominent aspects is the black tattoo-like mark on his left shoulder, a mark that Devil branded onto him. Jin has worn a great deal of outfits during the course of the *Tekken* series. Most of his outfits feature a flame motif, and, with the exception of a single outfit in *Tekken 6*, gloves or gauntlets. In *Tekken 6*, Jin discards his gloves from *Tekken 5* that contain the Kazama family crest in lieu of ones that model his former Mishima style ones. This could be a subtle hint at his personality change. As the Makai Knight he wears his makai robe with the red flame motive while keeping his gauntlets after Devil Gene was removed from him completely as Jin have no problem using both Hand-to-Hand abilities and sword fighting skills.

## Abilities

Jin Kazama uses Kazama Self-Defence Martial Arts as well as Mishima Style Karate and Kyokushin Karate to his arsenal. Due to him the heir of both families, he punches as he engulfs his fists with the electricity while using his ki as weapon. As the makai knight he is a force to be reckoned with while using his sword skills he is a deadly swordsman on his own as Roze the Shining Shadow Knight and is capable of using the flame ornament while dealing with Horrors.

## Personality

Jin's actions and surroundings fit the mold of a quintessential "tragic hero", excluding the lack of a tragic flaw as of *Tekken 6*. As with many tragedies, all of the major traumatic events that occur within the hero's life are beyond his control: his grandfather and father are two of the most malicious and ruthless individuals who've ever lived on the face of the earth. Also, his mother was cruelly and abruptly taken from him, while he was 15.

Jin has a very complex personality. He has the kindness of his mother, Jun Kazama and his grandmother, Kazumi Mishima. Likewise, he has the fighting spirit and determination of his half-uncle, Lars and his great grandfather, as well as a hidden and silent personal to his legal nephew Lee Chaolan, Jinpachi Mishima. He also has the anger of his father, Kazuya Mishima and his grandfather, Heihachi Mishima.

In the events of *Tekken 6*, Jin uses his new position as the CEO of the Mishima Zaibatsu to throw the world into war in hopes of a cure, although his intentions are entirely benevolent, since he seeks to use this to awaken and then destroy a much greater threat, Azazel. Believing that defeating this monster could help get rid of his curse, Jin might have destroyed countless people's property, ruined many lives and won lots of enemies through his actions. This may mean that Jin (no matter how painful it is for him) is willing to go out of his morals if that is what it takes to save the world. This again shows that no matter how indifferent and arrogant Jin seems to be, he is still a good man.

After defeating his father he became regretful of his actions as he become once again nice kind hearted individual as he is now walking the path of redemption while being mentored by his revealed to be alive all along mother Jun and as Makai Knight he become serious in protecting the innocent from Horrors as he still have the seriousness in him as when it comes to dealing with Demonic Beasts Horrors and even the minions of Edwin Black.
