Shaheen

Story

Shaheen is a soldier in the employment of a private military company specializing in providing security service. During Shaheen's service in the army, he was regarded as one of the best fighters when it came to one-on-one combat.

Suddenly, the news of his friend's death reaches Shaheen. Despite his death being filed as an accident, Shaheen knew that something was wrong. His friend was involved in the oil business, and after his death, his company was swiftly purchased by G Corporation, with all family members and managers resigning shortly after.

Shaheen's investigation leads him to Kazuya Mishima. After their confrontation, Shaheen decides to take a lesser walked path of mercy, allowing Kazuya to redeem himself by working with Shaheen. However, Kazuya immediately rejects the proposition and jumps off the building, turning into his demonic form and flying away. After seeing Kazuya's true nature, Shaheen swears that next time he will not show mercy.

Personality

Shaheen is a calm and collected man with a strong sense of justice. Despite being an excellent fighter, he has no interest in bringing people harm and does not enjoy the battle, only resorting to violence when he has to. Shaheen is a very benevolent man who believes that even someone seemingly thoroughly evil can be redeemed.

Appearance

Shaheen is a man with brown eyes, dark brown hair, and a light beard. He wears black shoes with a sharp nose, olive pants, a white jacket with golden decorations, a grey and gold cape with red on the inside, golden eagle decoration on his shoulder, and a red and white checkered keffiyeh. 

Playstyle

Jack of all trades, Shaheen is a versatile and straightforward character with no prominent weaknesses. While his toolkit is not expansive, it has everything that one might look for in a Tekken character. Decent movement, good pokes, solid mixups, and all necessary fundamental moves. None of those points are outstanding on their own, but their collective strength makes Shaheen a viable and competitive character. His simple nature could be thought of as his only real downside as there are not many ways for Shaheen to capitalize on knowledge checks or obscure attacks.
