## **Character Info**

Terry and his brother Andy started out on the streets before being adopted by Jeff Bogard and taken to South Town. Things were going well until Terry witnessed his adoptive father being murdered by Geese Howard. Not a great start to one’s childhood. The two brothers made an oath to train in the martial arts so that one day they could confront Geese and get revenge for their father. That day would come a decade later when Geese Howard organized The King of Fighters tournament which Terry and Andy both entered. The tournament concluded with a revenge match between Terry and Geese with Geese getting thrown off the top of his own building, seemingly to his death.

## **General Information**

### **Entrance**

Terry will jump out onto the stage from the background and adjust his cap before assuming his battle stance.

### **Kirby Hat**

Kirby will wear Terry’s blonde hair and Fatal Fury cap atop his head and will have miniature versions of Terry’s gloves over his hands.

### **Taunts**

**Up Taunt:** Terry will gesture with his hand and say, “Hey, come on, come on!”

**Down Taunt:** Terry will turn to his side and point forwards saying, “Stand up.”

**Side Taunt:** Terry will take off his hat and spin it around on his finger before putting it back on.

### **Victory Poses**

1. Terry turns his back towards the camera before whipping off his hat and tossing it up into the air saying, “Okay!”
2. Terry grips onto the brim of his hat before slowly turning it to the and dramatically tossing it back behind him through the air all while saying, “Okay!”
3. Terry will dust his hat off on his legs before placing it back on his head, turning to the side just as he does so in order to hide his eyes with his hat.

## **Moveset**

### **Standard Special**

**Power Wave:** Terry will lean down and punch the ground as he shouts  either “Power Wave!” or “Rock you!”. This will create a small energy wave which travels across the ground for a set distance. By holding down the input briefly the energy waves’ size, speed, distance, damage, and knockback will all be increased. If this move is used in the air then the wave will only travel a very short distance in front of Terry,  but will become larger and deal more damage as it acts as a sort of mid-air shield for Terry and will even briefly halt his descent through the air.

### **Side Special**

**Burning Knuckle:** Terry will dash forward with his fist outstretched and covered in blue flames as he shouts either “Burn Knuckle!”, “Burn!”, or “Burning!”. By holding down the input briefly the distance, damage, and knockback of the attack can all be increased. Burning Knuckle also has a stronger variant of itself which increases the damage and knockback of the attack even further as well as giving his front some brief frames of Super Armor. This is pulled off by pressing ↓ ↘ → followed by the attack, special, or side taunt input.

### **Up Special**

**Rising Tackle:** Terry will leap up into the air, feet first, and hold out his arms as he rapidly rotates through the air with an upward corkscrew flying kick. As he is doing this Terry will shout either, “Rising Tackle!”, “Hee-yah!”, or “Bingo!” By holding down the input briefly this attack will deal more damage and rise higher into the air than before.

### **Down Special**

**Power Dunk:** Terry will leap diagonally forwards into the air and shout either, “Power Dunk!” or “Beat up!”. At the height of his jump Terry will throw a burning punch downwards as he dives diagonally back down to the ground. During the initial rise up Terry’s knee can catch fighters as he deals damage to them and carry them the rest of the way up with him before he transitions into the punch and knocks them away. By holding down the input briefly Terry will travel farther up into the air at the start of the attack. Power Dunk also has a stronger variant of itself which grants Terry Super Armor on the initial ascent as well as increases the damage and knockback of the attack. This is pulled off by pressing → ↓ ↘  followed by the attack, special, or side taunt input.

### **Final Smash**

**Triple Wolf:** Terry will yell out, “Overheat!” before punching down at the ground and creating a series of three Power Geysers once after the other. The first will appear just in front of Terry while the next two geysers appear in the next space after the first. If an opponent was hit by any of these three geysers of flame then after the third one hits they will be dragged into a cinematic. If multiple opponents were hit, then only the first one hit by the geysers will be pulled into the cinematic. Terry will start things off by performing a Power Dunk attack and slamming his fist into his opponent’s chest and sending them flying down to the ground. Terry will then follow up by turning around and charging up his energies for a Buster Wolf attack. When the attack is ready Terry will shout, “Buster Wolf!” and punch the opponent with enough force that they are sent flying out of the cinematic.

### **Extra Skill**

**Crack Shoot:** Terry will take a step back before propelling himself forwards with a multi-hitting spinning heel kick attack as he shouts out either, “Crack Shoot!” or “Kick back!”. When used in the air Terry can reverse course and perform this attack behind him by holding down the backwards input for a short time before the move is executed. Crack Shoot also has a stronger variant of itself which increases the damage and knockback of the attack and adds shield damage to the second hit. This is pulled off by pressing ↓ ↙ ← followed by the attack, special, or side taunt input.

## **Unique Traits**

When Terry is facing only a single opponent, he will always turn himself around so that he faces in their direction.

When Terry has taken a high enough amount of damage (100% in Time/Stock Battles or having 30% or less health in Stamina battles) a “GO” icon will appear next to his damage percent. This indicates that Terry is now capable of performing one of two Super Special Moves, Power Geyser or Buster Wolf.

**Power Geyser** - Power Geyser is activated by pressing ↓ ↙ ← ↙ → or ↓ ← ↓ → followed by either the attack, special, or side taunt inputs. Terry will announce that attack by shouting out either “Power… Geyser!” or “Go burn!” before he punches at the ground and causes a massive geyser of energy to burst up from below and hit high above Terry. The damage dealt depends on when in the attack a fighter was hit with more damage being dealt in the initial strike than at the end. Either way this attack will launch opponents diagonally into the air and it will deal a high amount of damage to shields.

**Buster Wolf** - Buster Wolf is activated by pressing ↓ ↘ → ↓ ↘ → or ↓ → ↓ → followed by either the attack, special, or side taunt inputs. Terry will quickly slide forward along the ground and through an energy-infused punch as he asks his victim, “Are you okay?” If Terry is able to connect with an opponent then the attack will be immediately followed by an explosion of energy which blasts out from his fists as he shouts, “Buster Wolf!”. This blast is also considered an aoe that can damage nearby opponents as well, however they will take a smaller amount of damage than Terry’s primary opponent.
