Chin Gentsai

Chin Gentsai (鎮元斎) is one of the original members of the Psycho Soldier Team, which first appeared in The King of Fighters '94. His character's age and fighting style were considered to be essential for the series when developers were selecting fighters for the roster.

Story
He is the elderly mentor to Athena Asamiya, Sie Kensou, and Bao (and also the legal guardian of the latter two), instructing them to better harness their psychic powers (or Psycho Powers as it is dubbed by SNK) in the mountains of China. Chin teaches them in preparations for "the worst case scenario of oncoming evil" and uses the tournaments as a way of training his disciples. Things take a turn for the worse with the introduction of the Dragon Spirit between Bao and Kensou, with Chin having suspicions on the cause of its emergence. He pulls the team out of competition in 2003 to observe the matter thoroughly, asking K' and Maxima to investigate the tournament in his place for activity. During the year of the team's absence, he extensively trains Kensou's budding psycho powers -which were regained mysteriously after 2001- to be normal again.

Personality
In spite of being an experienced elder with large knowledge in chinese martial arts, Chin acts as if he was 15 most of the time. He often plays around with his apprentices and get to drikn almost all the time, but he knows when to get serious: in battle.

Powers

Fighting Style
