Eolith

**Eolith** was a Korean based fighting game company founded on April 30, 1996 that is best known for having the intellectual property for *The King of Fighters* series after SNK's bankruptcy. The games they produced were *The King of Fighters 2001* and *The King of Fighters 2002*. Their main goal while creating these games was to create a "real fighting environment" which tapped into the full potential of the games' roster. Another goal from the staff was to encourage perfectionism while challenging both newcomers and veterans of the series.

The company became associated with M-Dream in 2003, and they went on to create various mobile games. On June 3, 2005, it was purchased by another company called Netbrain, transforming it into a network equipment and solutions company, later integrated and thoroughly restructured into the pharmaceutical company Neurotech. However, M-Dream broke up in that process and became a company launching mobile games in China until 2007. In May 2008 a new company appeared under the name Neolith, and apparently appears to possess at least some properties of Eolith.

Even so, several fans debate the possible copyright issues over the original characters made for these titles (namely with Angel, May Lee, and K9999). Currently, no official statements have been made by SNK-Playmore though Nameless' creation has sparked some renewed interest on the matter, however, due to Angel's appearance in *The King of Fighters XIV*, it appears that SNK has the rights to use the characters.

The Agents Team debuted for the first and only time in XI, when Blue Mary took her place with Vanessa and Ramon to investigate who was involved with the tournament about the distant ones, when Magaki (the host of the tournament) disappeared. Once their host had been killed by Shion (another member of the distant land) the agents travel in a helicopter before the conference with Heidern.

### The King of Fighters XIII

In this tournament, the 4 members appear in the game scenes, where they investigate the stadium site in search of any suspicious activity from Those from the distant land, with no results until Heidern orders them to find a secret room under the stadium (whose information was provided by Adelheid) where they found the secret room where it housed a sphere that, in addition to radiating a lot of energy, was the source of the space-time fluctuations that the Ikari Warriors were detecting. Before they could do anything, the sphere began to radiate more energy and the fluctuations began to show more frequently and rapidly. It is not known what happens afterwards until the game is won, where scenes of various characters appear following their own paths, and among them, the team is found apparently retreating after having finished the mission.

### The King of Fighters XV

The team makes a comeback this time with Luong joining as the third team member to be revealed.

## Trivia

* It is the third team to only appear in one tournament.
* This team is possibly an ally / subgroup of the Ikari Warriors Team, as they are under the command of Heidern.
Kyo-2

In *The King of Fighters '99*, two clones of Kyo Kusanagi appeared as selectable characters: **Kyo-1** and **Kyo-2**. The original Kyo was redesigned for the game, but some designers wanted his return to *KOF '99* with his iconic school uniform. When they were nearing the end of their production schedule, staff members were indecisive upon which uniform the Kyo clone should wear (*KOF '94* or *KOF '95*) when he project head said to just make two clones instead. To save time, the project head then drew designs for Kyo-1 and Kyo-2 on the spot.
EX Blue Mary

**EX Blue Mary** is a different shade to Blue Mary, who's a secret character available in *Reaal Bout Fatal Fury Special*. Her default look was later carried over for Mary's normal attire in *Real Bout Garou Densetsu Special Dominated Mind*.

An EX Mary appears in *The King of Fighters '98: Ultimate Match*, being just a different version of Mary with her *Real Bout Fatal Fury 2* moveset.

EX Saga

**EX Saga** is a non-canonical Spin-off Saga released for Game Boy Advance.

His first game *The King of Fighters EX: Neo Blood* was released on January 1, 2002 and both games in theory take place between *The King of Fighters '97* and *The King of Fighters '99*, in the period where Kyo Kusanagi remained missing fleeing from NESTS.

This Saga is known for using game scenarios from the NESTS Saga but with a more Orochi Saga storyline. Although the character Moe Habana is considered the heroine of this saga, Kyo Kusanagi is apparently still the main character, leading the Hero Team of both games.

## Story

After Orochi's defeat, Moe Habana finds the injured Kyo Kusanagi, and helps him recover. After that the two get together to participate in the next tournament, where the host was again Geese Howard who was interested in the power of Orochi that Iori Yagami possessed.

Later a mysterious man named Gustav Munchausen tries to revive the spirit of Leopold Goenitz in the body of a boy named Sinobu Amou.

Ikari Warriors

**Ikari Warriors**, known only as **Ikari** in Japan, is a series of Run and Gun games created by SNK in 1986. The series focuses on the duo Paul and Vince members of Ikari Warriors, a group of soldiers mercenaries, and their various missions.

The official slogan for the series is "Surviving all dangers even electrocuting your friend!".

Ikari Warriors is one of the games to be part of the crossover in the The King of Fighters series alongside Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting and Psycho Soldier.
Jhun Hoon

*In this Korean name, the family name is* Jhun.

**Jhun Hoon** is a recurring member of the Korean team after his debut in *The King of Fighters '99*. He is the friendly rival of Kim Kaphwan.

He is modeled after Kim Hoon from *Fight Fever*, and shares some moves from the game's last boss, Karate Kenji.

He is voiced by Kazuya Ichijo.
Eiji Kisaragi

**Eiji Kisaragi** is a character in both the *Art of Fighting* and *The King of Fighters* series. He is speculated to be the descendant of Zantetsu from *The Last Blade* series of fighting games. Former SNK illustrator, Shiroi Eiji, takes her namesake from the white alternate color palette swap of Eiji in *Art of Fighting 2*.

In both *The King of Fighters XI* and the manga of *The King of Fighters: Kyo*, Eiji is portrayed as only semi-serious, and is often the butt of other characters' jokes.

Heidern is the commander of the Ikari Warriors, and issues orders to his adopted daughter Leona and his best soldiers: Clark Still, Whip, and Ralf Jones. He is also known as the **General of the Soldiers of Fortune**.
Evil Ash

**Evil Ash**, officially known as **Ash Crazed by the Spiral of Blood** (血の螺旋に狂うアッシュ *Chi no Rasen ni Kuruu Asshu*), is the final boss in *The King of Fighters XIII*. He was initially referred to by fans as **Dark Ash** and is the fusion of Ash Crimson and Saiki. His appearance is essentially Ash wearing black clothing and with white hair. He is unplayable in both arcade and home versions, but the secret character Saiki can be considered a balanced, playable form of Evil Ash in the home versions. He is voiced by Sōnosuke Nagashiro.

## Story

After Saiki fought the winners, Ash attacks him from behind and absorbs his energy. This backfires as Saiki's influence takes over during the process and as a result the two fuse into a single entity.

Evil Ash battles the tournament winners but Ash manages to take control of his body sometime after. Ignoring the pleas from his ancestor to allow him passage and warnings of the consequences, Ash decides to erase his own history and calmly waits for the portal to close. The portal closes, which creates a time paradox: as Saiki is now trapped in the present, it is impossible for Ash to have ever been born. Thus, Ash ceases to exist, taking Saiki with him.

## Powers

* **Pyrokinesis** - After killing and absorbing Saiki's powers, Evil Ash no longer possess his original green flames as he used to, but now possess black flames instead.
	+ **Create Fire** - Evil Ash can create dark fire from thin air.
	+ **Fiery Attacks** - Evil Ash can infuse his punches/kicks with dark flames for increased damage.
	+ **Fiery Projectiles** - Evil Ash can shoot out fiery projectiles and waves to attack distant foes.
	+ **Fiery Movement** - Evil Ash can move while leaving behind dark flame energy (which damages foes as he passes).
	+ **Fiery Body** - Evil Ash can ignite his own body on dark fire, without burning himself.
	+ **Fiery Zone** - Evil Ash can fill the area around him with damaging dark fire.
* **Seal Techniques** - Evil Ash can make enemies not use their powers for a duration.
* **Seal Powers** - Evil Ash can cut off energy sources from his enemies (thus preventing them to gather more power) for a duration.

## Fighting Style

As a result of the fusion, Evil Ash uses Ash's general techniques, but infuses them with darkness. He is also capable of performing a double *Ventose* and has a more extreme version of Ash's *Germinal*, done quicker and without having to perform the *Sans-Culottes* first. Furthermore, he has a Desperation Move in which he fills the screen with a series of dark explosions; this possibly mimics Elisabeth's NeoMAX, in which she performs a similar technique with light-based explosions.

Adelheid Bernstein

**Adelheid Bernstein**, **Adel** for short, is a boss character from *The King of Fighters 2003* and *The King of Fighters XI*. He, along with his younger sister, Rose, are the only known children of Rugal Bernstein. Creators have stated that he is the "other protagonist" of the Ash saga.

Gato

**Name: Gato**

**Height: Large**

**Age: 26**

**Birth of Place: Japan**

**Blood Type: B**

**Gato** is a character from *Garou: Mark of the Wolves*. He is visually based on Resu Kaioh from the *Baki the Grappler* manga series. Since Retsu is voiced by Kunihiko Yasui, who is known to SNK fans as the voice for Iori Yagami, the developers decided to hire a different voice actor who could mimic the same menacing tone for Gato. SNK then decided that Gato would be voiced by Koji Ishii, similarly to Ryuji Yamazaki.
Benimaru Nikaido

**Name: Benimaru Nikaido**

**Height: Large**

**Age: 21**

**Birth of Place: Japan**

**Blood Type: O**

**Benimaru Nikaido** is a *The King of Fighters* character and one of Kyo Kusanagi's friends. His straight hair stays up during fights due to a rather exaggerated case of electrostatics. His official nickname is **The Shooting Star**.

## Development

Benimaru's appearance was loosely based on Jean Pierre Polnareff from the manga series *JoJo's Bizarre Adventure*, right down to his outfit in The King of Fighters '94 and The King of Fighters '95. Even after Benimaru's name was decided, the game developers continued to refer to him as Polnareff. Additionally, his taunt in The King of Fighters XI mirrors Polnareff's stature from the manga. His vocal performance was initially deemed by his original designer to have nothing to do with the character's original image.

The idea for his electric powers -as well as the other elemental powers for the rest of the Japan team- was derived from the anime *Getter Robe*. In the show, there were three featured heroes who served as the inspiration for the KOF trio: the protagonist had a "fiery" persona, his friend was "edgy and daring", and the third hero was the "down-to-earth giant". It is also a homage to a Japanese phrase of giving birth to fire (roughly translated: lightning strikes the earth which sparks the flame).

Due to the particular pitch in his voice, some fans have voiced question to Benimaru's sexuality to developers, to which they respond, "It's not what you think. (Not that there's anything wrong with that)." A developer also responds that he's a man's man who loves women. In Gamest's 1997 Heroes Collection, Benimaru was voted as the staff's thirteenth favorite character. He tied the spot with Samurai Shodown character, Shizumaru Hisame. In the character popularity poll on Neo Geo Freak's website, he was voted as the sixth favorite character with a total of 1,269 votes.
Geese Howard

**Geese Howard** is the chief antagonist of the *Fatal Fury* series and a secondary villain in the *Art of Fighting* series. His role varies in the *The King of Fighters* storyline, but he is always either in the position of a villain or an anti-hero.

Geese also appears in many CD dramas and stars in his own character image album. He also sings in a number of image songs. In addition to appearing in manga adaptations of the *Fatal Fury*, *Art of Fighting* and *The King of Fighters* games published in Japan, Geese Howard was also the subject of a single-volume manga published in 1996 titled *The Geese Howard Story* by Etsuya Amajishi, adapting the character's fictional history from the *Art of Fighting* and *Fatal Fury* games. It was followed by a single-volume sequel in 1997 titled *Geese in the Dark*, by the same author.

In the Neo Geo Freak's 1997 Volume 8 character poll, he was voted as the nineteenth favorite character with a total of 507 votes. 232 votes from the male fans and 275 votes from the females fans. In the character popularity poll on Neo Geo Freak's website, he was voted as the thirteenth favorite character with a total of 903 votes.
G.A.W. Team

The **G.A.W. Team** (GALAXY ANTON WRESTLING by its initials) is a team made up of Antonov, Ramon and King of Dinosaurs who make their debut in *The King of Fighters XV*. The team brings together the three members who practice wrestling.

## Trivia

* It is considered the new USA Sports Team, only they are based on wrestling.
* Together with the NESTS Team, a character previously appeared as a sub-boss is integrated.
