Biography[]
Tekken 7[]
In his youth, Fahkumram was hailed as a prospective champion until one fateful day when he was struck by lightning. Miraculously, he survived and eventually went on to become one of his country's youngest Muay Thai champions at the age of 18. He became hailed as a hero, eventually married, and had a daughter. However, his peaceful family life would not last, as he was approached by a group of mysterious men and threatened to throw his next fight. Unfazed by their threats, Fahkumram defied them and knocked his opponent out in one blow. The match-fixers then attempted to assassinate him, but he proved too strong, killing many of them in self-defense. Unfortunately for Fahkumram, it turned out that the ones threatening him were corrupt government officials, and he ended up arrested and imprisoned, with his family taken hostage as well. Held in a black site, Fahkumram became a slave to the military, who forced him into life-or-death matches in secret underground fights. He spent the next 4 years descending into cynicism and violent rage, until one day the military approached him with a mission, now threatened by the ongoing war between the Mishima Zaibatsu and G Corporation. Fahkumram was to enter the 7th King of Iron Fist Tournament and claim victory, with the incentive that he and his family may finally be free. With nothing but desperation left, Fahkumram accepts his task.
Personality[]
Fahkumram is a brutal Muay Thai fighter who is largely stoic and does not seem to enjoy talking much. In spite of his intimidating appearance, he appears to possess a humble demeanor, with one of his intros asking his opponent what they are fighting for. Fahkumram possesses a sense of honor and justice, initially refusing to engage in match-fixing. He is motivated to fight for his captors by the threat to his family's life, indicating his love for them and his willingness to do anything for them.
Abilities[]
Fahkumram fights using Muay Thai, a combat sport renowned for its additional usage of knees and elbows for striking alongside punches and kicks. Unlike other styles, Muay Thai also holds an emphasis on clinching in order to control the fight and expose the opponent to knee or elbow strikes. It also, in regards to kicks, focuses almost solely on striking opponents using the shins and not the feet.
Unlike fellow practitioner Bruce Irvin, Fakhumram's style of Muay Thai is strictly traditional and more akin to the older Muay Boran which has several different forms and patterns compared to its modern counterpart. As such, his style of fighting could be classified as 'pure' Muay Thai, unlike Bruce's more Westernized version.
