(LAST UPDATE: 10/15/2009)

GENERAL/STORY:
Azazel made his debut in Tekken 6 as the primary antagonist. He was most likely named after the famed demon in Judeo-Christian mythology. Little is known about Azazel's history, other than that he is the embodiment of the ultimate evil guarded in a tomb by Zafina, set to be released after the clash of "two evil stars".

Azazel looks much like the Egyptian god Set, with blue-gray skin, a large, spiked tail used for attacking, and huge spikes of ice/crystal growing out of his forearms. He also wears an Egyptian ceremonial headdress and loincloth.

Like many supernatural entities before him, Azazel appears to have the advantage of superpowered abilities over his opponents. These include a powerful stun attack (similar to Jinpachi Mishima), and eye lasers. He also has the ability to summon boulders from the ground and set them on his opponents. He can also summon scarabs made of ice to attack opponents and parts of his body get destroyed after taking too much damage.

In Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion, there exists a golden version of Azazel. Currently, it is up to speculation on how players can get to it. Its moves appear to remain the same, but Gold Azazel is reportedly stronger. The reward for defeating him is 20,000 G.

ORIGIN:
Tekken 6

OTHER APPEARANCES:

REVIEW:
The Tekken series hasn't really seen a "monster" since Tekken 3/Tag, so I guess they figured it was about time for another one. Azazel's a pretty cool looking monster, and also the biggest character in the series' history. I look forward to facing him. Heh heh heh.
