Abel is a French mixed martial artist from the Street Fighter series who first appeared in Street Fighter IV. He is described as amnesiac, a "man with no past" looking to defeat surviving members of Shadaloo.
Biography[]
A young man who was created and destined to become a replacement body for M. Bison. He was discorded as a faulty product, but managed to survive. In order to find out the truth about his past, he pursues Shadaloo. After learning that Shadaloo is after a mysterious box that crash-landed in Antarctica, he partners with Guile to infiltrate the frozen continent.
Appearance[]
Abel is a very well built individual. He towers over many of the other characters, being almost on par with Zangief in terms of bulk. He wears a blue Judo gi top with white spandex shorts, and blue shin guards and thick grappling gloves. He has blue eyes and sports a Faux Hawk, and is covered in scars from head to toe; most likely from being experimented on or from being damaged in the wreckage he was found in.
Personality[]
Abel is a strange, yet a very skilled fighter in combat. He usually talks about the "battlefield." He fights to try and recover his memory, so most of the cut scenes you see him asking someone a question. If not, usually someone asks him a question, threatening him as well. Of course, having no memory, he gets agitated and simply gets ready for the fight. He is a man of little words simply trying to find himself. His quiet nature is often mistaken for aloofness and emotional detachment, but in truth, Abel is a kind and compassionate man, though his amnesia has caused him to develop a tough outer persona. By the time of Street Fighter IV, though he remains somewhat aloof, Abel has become more sociable and friendly to his allies, thanking Chun-Li, and giving El Fuerte chocolate. He also shows a soft spot for puppies and seems to be a fan of Fei-Long.

- —Abel
Abel has a very aggressive fighting style. He's mainly a grappler, and many of his moves either chain into a throw or set a foe up for one. Since he moves rather slowly, one would assume he would have a difficult time getting close enough to throw an opponent; however, most of his techniques get him either behind an enemy or right in their face. Abel is also capable of grounding enemies that like spending time jumping around, getting very close in the process. Abel is a strong character who needs to get close to finish a fight, and he's very good at doing it. Because he has great combo potential, and lacks a projectile Abel is generally played as a rushdown based character. He is also equipped with a good variety of crossups and overheads.
