________James C. Ant: Late one night, Jameson Churnwell was
ransacked from his home by gang members from a group calling
themselves the Night Scream, supposedly for interfering with one
of their business deals. They dragged him, at gun point, out of
his home and drove him to a secluded cliff, where they proceeded
to shoot him in the head and throw his body off the cliff, where
it proceeded to land in thick shrubbery about 85 feet below.
Unconscious and close to death, a strange and miraculous thing
occurred. A large colony of common type ants found him and, like
a miracle, nursed him back to health. And so began a correlation
between ant and man the desire for revenge against the street
gang and their followers who so quickly decided to try and kill
him off for no reasons that he knew of.
His reasons for entering into the Street Mortality
tournaments are believed to be due to some rumors that members of
that very gang are participant's in the sport. And if he is
successful in locating one of them, he'll "persuade" the other
guy into telling the location of the gang's hideout. Any other
reasons are only known to him and his ants.
________James attacks include the usual punches and kicks
associated with most fighters. But, his defensive structure, high
pain threshold, and healing rate are almost super-human in
nature. (It is believed that the ant colony riddled throughout
his inner body have something to do with that.) And when it comes
down to battle, his raging hatred for those who enjoy in the act
of killing shows through.
________Special attacks:
________________Carpet of pain: Hold the Strong Kick button while
pressing Up, Up, Up/Towards, Towards on the joystick creates a
thick, black circle of ants around James for several seconds. If
James can get his opponent to stand in any section of the ring,
his opponent will be mercilessly bitten by the insects for as
long as that person is within the ring.
________________The mandible frisbee: By pressing the powerhouse
punch while tapping the joystick towards your opponent three
times, James will throw a frisbee made of ants at his opponent.
If the frisbee makes contact with the opponent, then a fair
amount of damage will be scored caused by the ants assault. Hit
or miss, the ants will quickly scurry back to Jameson in a matter
of seconds.
________________Nocuous breath: By quickly moving the joystick
towards, then away from the opponent, James can belch a
nocuousiating odor, capable of stunning the opponent's
concentration for a second or two if the opponent is close to
Jameson.
________________Finishing Maneuver: When the opponent has been
beaten past the point of being able to continue the match, James
can grab onto his opponent's lower jaw and allow some of the ant
population to crawl down his opponent's throat and very quickly
devour the dying person from the inside out, leaving only a
chewed up skeleton afterwards.
________________Vengeance Finishing Maneuver: When one of the
fighters associated with the gang who tried to kill him that
fateful night has been beaten by him in a match, he will
automatically initiate this maneuver. While similar to his
regular finishing maneuver, it differs in the fact that the ants
go for only the opponent's vital organs and work very slowly
while Jameson interrogates the pain ridden gang member into
telling him various secrets about the gang (Including the
hangout's location).
