Biography
Ogre (Japanese: オーガ, Hepburn: Ōga?) was a monstrous entity that was known as the Toshin to the Japanese and as the God of Fighting to the Aztecs.
According to Native American legend, Ogre was a war weapon created by creatures from outer space who left him on Earth in ancient times.
One of the missions of the Tekken Force was to covertly search the world for Ogre. Tekken Force searched an ancient temple located somewhere in Mexico. Soon after arriving there, Heihachi learns that his entire force has been obliterated by Ogre. Heihachi, having witnessed the power of Ogre, seeks to capture him in hopes of creating the ultimate life form. Ogre attacked many world-renowned martial arts masters around the world and absorbed their ki and abilities into his own being. Ogre eventually makes his way towards Yakushima, where Jun Kazama lives with her fifteen-year-old son, Jin. Ogre finds them and attacks. In the ensuing fight, Ogre outmatches Jin. The exact result of the battle is unknown, but Jin is knocked out cold and awakens, later on, to find his home destroyed and Ogre and Jun nowhere to be found. Assuming Ogre has taken Jun's life, Jin swears revenge on him. As bait to lure Ogre into the open, Heihachi announces the King of Iron Fist Tournament 3 five years later. Ogre shows up and is defeated by Paul Phoenix. However, unknown to Paul, Ogre morphs into his true form and the tournament continues. Ogre eventually confronts Jin and they clash in battle. Ultimately, Jin emerged as the victory of the fight with Ogre being defeated and killed.
Heihachi's scientists capture samples of its blood and tissue in order to splice its DNA with Heihachi's and make Heihachi immortal. The experiment fails however, since Heihachi lacks the necessary Devil Gene in his blood. Heihachi announces the King of Iron Fist Tournament 4 in order to lure Kazuya and Jin, who both carry the Devil Gene, into the open. After Jin Kazama leaves the Hon-Maru after the final battle in the King of Iron Fist Tournament 4, he hears rumors that his mother, Jun Kazama, is still alive at G Corporation. When Jin travels to their labs, he finds no trace of his mother but, instead, discovers that G Corporation has either resurrected Ogre or cloned it. In the ruins of an ancient temple beneath the labs, Jin battles Ogre once again. Ogre flees to a deeper part of the ruins with Jin in hot pursuit. In the deeper ruins, Jin encounters a giant contraption that uses a large white orb to attack. After Jin destroys this, it is revealed that he has unwittingly broken the seal containing Ogre. Jin battles True Ogre once again. Once Ogre is defeated, it reveals a new transformation. Despite its new advantages, Jin still triumphs and destroys Ogre possibly once and for all. It is still debated whether the events in Devil Within are canon or not but it is generally assumed not. Later, as Jin heads to Yakushima, Lili shows her research into the Kazama family tree. Jin reveals then that Ogre was responsible for the attack on Yakushima and presumably killed his mother, Jun, seven years ago.
