@Dee15gon ...dude..are you a time traveler?

Because that African American Shaolin Monk would be the perfect weapon against Leroy Smith.

Exactly. Great concept!

And yesterday before sleeping I was thinking about an Afro-American 5-elements/Wuxing fighter.

Metal : punches/kicks and guard breaks
Water : low parries/attacks avoiding highs
Fire : fast punches/kicks and combos
Wood : high parries/attacks avoiding lows
Earth : stunning punches/kicks and throws

Like the Wuxing system where each element is linked :
- there would be "generating" transitions, for instance when you press P+K after certain attacks in Metal stance, you can directly use some moves from the Water stance
- ther would be "overcoming" transitions, for instance when you press H after certain attacks in Metal stance, you can go to Wood stance but it is not directly linked to an attack

Wuxing really speaks to some people all around this world.

That's also really good idea. Sounds like Lei Wulong. They could hit two birds with one stone, making a black guy who resembles Wei Wulong, but also has some Leroy Smith qualities. Haha :p

I'd love something like this.

I would not mind colored fight effects depending on the stance used against the opponent (white for metal, dark blue for water, green for wood, red for fire, yellow for earth). Making him a "magician" is not necessary, but could be impressive with the new engine.

Would a black shaolin geek from Australia too exotic ?

It could be interesting. I rather have his nationality from the US but Australia would be fine.

Name: Daishin

Ethnicity: Chinese

Age: Unknown (Always wears a mask)

Height: 6'3"

Weight: 172 lbs

Rivals: Hayate, Ayane, Helena, Bass, Lisa, Christie, Brad Wong, Jann Lee

Fighting Style: Pak Mei Kung Fu

Occupation: Mystic

Hobbies: Cooking

Favorite Food: Ramen

Personality: Daishin is a stoic and pragmatic individual who challenges every situation that crosses his quick wits, and backs up his philosophy with his fists. He may be quite arrogant to some who are not use to his brazen and unapologetic approach. When he fights, he is relentless and without mercy, but honors anyone worthy. He dislikes people who are easily annoyed by his ways, and will make quick heist to put them in their place.

His fighting focuses around an intense defensive style, with no stances. He is only truly safe to attack after a successful counter hold, giving him a window of opportunity to pull off a good combo. His damage is the lowest out of all characters, and his speed is average. His combos are a multitude of high and low crushes with variations of jumping and ducking attacks. He is considered a mid range character, using his moves to bait out the opponent and to gain the upper hand by knocking the opponent into things to get his big damage combos. He can be very frustrating to face if played against aggressively at mid range.

I had a character I had commissioned from @axouel2009 since I think DOA needs a bitchy current gen rich girl xD

goth minaj(1)~2.jpg


Her name is Chardonnay and she lives in Europe, her real parents were forced to abandon her when she was little since their family disapproved of her European father having children with a Filipina women since his wealthy family looked down on them, so the mother gave her up to an older very wealthy couple who couldn't have children of their own and raised her like she was royalty while also sheltering her from the truth of how she came to be.


Age: 21 Years old
Weight: 115 lbs.
Height: 5"1
Bust Size: 99 cm
Nationality: European Filipina
Personal Alignment: Good
Occupation: Gymnast, Private School Student
Hobbies: Ballet, Ballroom Dancing, prayer, confessions, cooking and performing for her parents
Family: Xavier VI(Father), Vermillia(Mother), Unknown biological parents
Fighting Style: Self Taught style with incorporated gymnastics & regal elements of dance
Likes: Foreign foods, Danishes, Rose', Lolita fashion, shopping
Dislikes: Those who threaten her parents, MIST, mistakes

When she was 16, her parents' house was forced into by a band of European criminals who had been prevoously attempting to blackmail and threaten the family out of millions of dollars, and they were going torture and assassinate the now up in age couple who couldn't defend themselves. A white haired women had tried to keep Chardonnay tried up, but she was able to escape the woman and using her Gymnastics and knowledge of spacing, she was able to injure the criminals and subdue them long enough for the police to arrive. The white haired woman had escaped beforehand tho as Chardonnay's style was strongly lacking against the woman who effortlessly evaded her attacks, like a snake hunting it's prey.

This had awakened a darker, sadistic side of her that longed to fight and provide for her older parents who grew weaker as she grew stronger. Sensing that there was something going on with her as she became more protective over her foster parents, they attempted to hide her from the violent world by immersing her in Catholicism and religion and also into gymnastics and ballroom dancing, but they didn't realize that she was able to channel her power and fighting abilities into her gymnastics as she began to take part in local tourneys and street fights on a whim to sate her desire to fight, and her style drew alot of admirers and fans. However an organization watched her from afar and were interested in her abilities, particularly about how her attacks as elegant and dainty and graceful as they were, they were able to deal significant damage to those unlucky to feel the harsh sting of her dance and gymnastics.

One day when she was 21 she received a letter from an organization named MIST who was fascinated with her abilities and wanted to ask her to test her abilities in their studies, and even offered her a chance to enter the DOA tournament, but she declined as she knew of the company's shady reputation. But she began receiving threatening letters and emails from an unknown source... They began to threaten her parents unless she took part in the tournament, and even began threatening blackmail to her parents who began suffering stress and paranoia. Although Chardonnay wasn't initially phased, seeing her parents' stress began to make her develop an angry arrogant hatred towards the organization, and it took a toll on her otherwise positive disposition. Additional protection and security was hired for their mansion and estate and the threats soon dwindled, with the messages now becoming more desperate, as if trying to somehow entice her. But she waa unable to determine if the messages and MIST were related, or if it was possibly a foe who was entering the tournament trying to blackmail her.

Finally the emails and letters began suggesting a possible incentive: the key to finding out about whom her parents are as the unknown sender began dropping some clues and dead ends to her biological family. Seeing that there was no longer a choice in the matter, she sets out TO DOATEC as a new entry to find out whom this mysterious person sending the messages are and why they're targeting her foster family, and more importantly, why they're interested in her of all people.

Design: I wanted her to be a gothic European Lolita type character since I think DOA lacks mature Lolita type characters. She's 5"1 and has boobs about the same size as Honoka with a small slim curvy waist and thicc hips and thighs and nice curvy shapely legs kinda like Nicki Minaj, and she has pale type skin with dark green eyes and long dark green bottom length hair with shoulder length sidelocks and a short blunt European cut fringe bang.

She also wears a matching violet and dark green Lolita dress that's off the shoulder with a choker with Ruby jewel, and her dress is frilled and has a tier skirt with matching stockings and platform Lolita shoes to give her legs a bit more length. Her outfits are generally similar, she wears alot of elegant high value fashion but her main outfit for fighting is a thong leotard under a pair of asymmetrical gothic punk pants with a pair of platform Mary Jane ballerina shoes.

Personality: Coming from a wealthy background, Chardonnay is use to the finer more luxury aimed things in life but she's still has humility and is very caring and protective of her foster parents since she feels like she owes her life to making them proud and showing she's not just some socialite. She's also Catholic so she has a religious side and often prays but ever since her parents were threatened and she was forced to partake in the tournament, she hides her worry and concern for her parents' lives by using arrogance, disdain, and overall lack of respect for her opponents to fuel her style. She tends to look down on others and also has a slight sadism that she uses in various parts of her fighting as well, and she generally does not feel like her enemies are of much use or challenge to her since she's used to emerging the victor in her bouts. Behind her nasty solemn arrogant attitude however lies a gentle, sweet young girl who's only goal is to ensure that both her foster and biological parents are both safe and proud of what she's to become.

As far as how she carries herself, she behaves elegantly, similar to Helena but her walking style and stance are generally more feminine and regal. Because of her higher standard of living, the stages and properties don't really impress her since her mansion is far larger, and she has no issues with getting dirty although she dislikes sweating and she also tries her best to avoid breaking her nails. When she wins she often belittles her opponent and she also enjoys a nice expensive glass of her favorite Rose' from her butler and maid Bossa and Marienbard. She prefers expensive luxury dishes as well too.(Although she does have a secret liking of Coney Island chili and she also enjoys cheeseburgers on occasion and also likes to drink vanilla milkshakes).

She is used to being the victor and as such she doesn't take kindly to losing. She also hates mistakes and doesn't like people like Nico or Ayane who are just as rude or cold as she is, but that's mainly since her colder demeanor is more facade to hide her self doubts. She has respect for Eliot since he also doesn't know his parents and respects Kasumi since they both fight for those they care for, and she doesn't like Helena but she does harbor a bit of respect for carrying on her father's company, but she doesn't respect that she is still allowing her mother's killer to be alive.

She has no interest in any of the DOA males but she does consider Eliot handsome, and she considers Bass and Raidou Neanderthals. She finds Jann Lee annoying and also dislikes Nyo, thinking she's a classless oiran upon meeting her.

Gameplay: She fights using a combination of valley girl type moves and slaps with alot of flowery, elegant, beautiful dance moves and gymnastics that have good reach and power since her moveset has alot of attacks that move her forward to make more reach. She hits hard and is very mobile but she's average in general speed and her flips and other gymnastics tend to be slower but she can get alot of advantage on block and she benefits from good spacing and zoning since she can play mid to long range and has a good keep away game.

She would also have some special expert holds against punches and she would have a wavedash stance and good backturned mix ups. Her weakness tho is her being more weak and more poke oriented when she's up close but her pokes are decent and she has good crushes. She has above average throws with a reset and a launcher and her holds are about average. She also has various moves she can use while crouching or after being left in a crouching state from specific attacks. Her tracking is ok and she would be a relatively safe character to use and easy to pick up but her set ups and Oki I want to be her main highlights. If she had frame data her neutral would be 10i/12i/12i in punches and her kick neutral would be 11i/13i/14i.

I was bored and decided to share my third character concept that I commissioned from Axpuel too since I wanted a younger male in DOA who's not big like the other guys.

1595877178-angel (1)~2.jpg



His name is Angel Lionheart and he's a Greek American who comes from New York City and hails from Coney Island. When he was a kid, being an only child he was a loner and because of his more small stature(A trait that has even been with him even at 20 years old xD) he was frequently picked on and made fun of which caused him to often hide from his peers and he frequently cut class in middle school. He'd rather be alone to avoid conflict and often would escape his problems by "admiring" Helena's performances on TV since he has a huge crush on her.



Age: 20 years old



Weight: 129 lbs



Height: 5"0



Nationality: Greek American



Personal Alignment: Neutral Good



Occupation: Biker, street fighter, self proclaimed vigilante, college student(currently truant),



Hobbies: Motorcyles, auto repair, fighting, cutting classes, opera(only for Helena whom he often pleasures himself to), watching street fights,



Family: Isaac(Father), Sophianna(Mother)



Fighting Style: Self Taught



Likes: Fighting, knockouts, fast food, bacon cheeseburgers, leather, jeans, black, porn magazines, H-games, Diego, Helena, impressing others, victory, collecting comic books, working out, biking, beer, girls



Dislikes: losing, criminals, school, shaving(does it but he thinks it's annoying), being looked down on, his bike breaking down



One day as a high school freshman as he was walking home he was ganged up on and was jumped by older criminal who attempted to steal his belongings, but he put up more a fight than they had thought since his smaller size made him a handful to deal with. They grew tired of him and drew a knife to stab him but a young older Hispanic male with a faux haw hairstyle and numerous scars came to his aid and knocked out his assailant. The other thugs quickly ran away, possibly out of fear for the man which Angel didnt understand. The man helped him up and took him home and from that day forward, Angel admired his hero and wanted to follow in his footsteps as a street fighter and someone who could defend others when needed!



Wanting to follow a similar path since he later learned the man was Diego, a renowned street fighter who was both feared and admired for his cut throat fighting abilities, Angel began hitting the gym and working out to make himself stronger to compensate for his shorter height. He frequently watched Diego's brawls and even hung out with a couple of times and such he learned and adapted his own take on a street fighting style. He also got into the street life despite his parent wanting him to follow in their wishes of him being a business owner of his father's computer company as it's next CEO to be, but he frequently rebelled against his parents; while he loved them very much and wanted to please him, he wanted to do his own thing and as such he got into motorcyles and biking as well as taking part in after school brawls. While he did struggle at first and was the underdog, he went from being that to a well renowned brawler from freshman year to senior year and his loner quiet nature mutated into a loud mouth, cocky "kid" who liked to use fists and trash talk to make his peers respect them, and he also frequently would insert himself into the crime world as he used his fighting skills and own sense of justice to stop muggers and street crime as he frequently assisted police(despite their reluctance of wanting his "help"...). Despite his morally good views, his rebellious nature is still present as he frequently still cut classes and preferred biking and wild parties with his friends and fighting when he wasn't busy talking shit and being a jerk ass to anyone who crossed him or his friends, and he was frequently regarded as a headache to his teachers and proffesors.



Now 20 years old and being a private school student, he longed for a challenge as he felt his fights just weren't fun anymore and he had already earned enough street cred in his area, but he felt that as long as Diego was the reigning champ, he couldn't compare to him.... He decided that he would surprise his mentor by entering the DOA6 tournament so he could have a chance to fight and beat him in battle. He excitedly told his parents but that was the last straw; Tired of his rebellious nature and not wanting him to get into any more fights he was sent to an out of town Private all boys school where violence was prohibited days before the tournament was to start. Angel however called his gang of friends to bring him his bike and he escaped his school by hopping the fence. He knew his parents would be pissed if they found out but this was his big chance to show Diego that he wasn't that scared kid anymore he saved.... With anticipation racing, he bikes his way to DOATEC to enter the tournament(and to hopefully impress Helena so she would be his girlfriend xD)



Design: I wanted him to basically be a new generation type fighter who's a punk and has a more street type appearance. He's short at 5"0 but has a nice sturdy built muscular shape since he spends alot of time working out and fighting, and he has nice muscular thighs as well too. He is naturally blonde with brown eyes but he dyes his hair jet black and wears it short with a shaggy long part that covers his left eye and he has a healthy normal Caucasian skin tone and. He wears small tape like bandages on his face and arms as an accessory since he loves them.



His outfit is a actually an bottom less black suit that also has a large chest opening, he wears it since he dislikes wearing underwear with his pants. He wears an asymmetrical custom made leather jacket with one sleeve and a winged shoulder section with combat fingerless gloves and a black strap to secure it in place. He wears tight blue jeans with rips in the front and below his butt with a loose belt like strap and he wears black lace up leather platform combat boots.



His other outfits would follow similar street styles although he also has casual wear. In certain outfits he also would have an option akin to the underwear option for girls to toggle a light amount of body hair since he dislikes shaving, and some have it as a default in certain outfits although it's just light chest and stomach hair with arm hair.



Personality: For Angel, I was always interested in the "yankii" Japanese archetype, which is basically a delinquent youth in Japan who are rebellious and refuse to adhere to authority, and I thought for an American new York character, this could be translated into a western type character. He dyes his hair, cuts class, bikes, and also takes part in fights and gang activity(not illegal) but he is morally good and dislikes crime and takes up for those he cares about.



He's basically a jerk ass as well: he is loud, foul mouthed and curses frequently, uses alot of slang and talks alot of trash to his opponents and is very cocky about his abilites(not to Diego or anyone he respects like his friends and family). He's basically like a disrespectful kid who's all talk but he has the fighting ability of course to back up his mouth, or so he proclaims in most of his bouts. He dislikes pacifists who don't fight saying they should stand up for themselves, and he likes to mock and belittle his opponents he feels waste his time. He doesn't like losing at all and isnt above resorting to dirty tactics like kneeing, head butting, and even a crude attack that's called kancho to damage his opponents. He also isnt above spitting at his opponent.



He gets along well with fellow fighters like Jann Lee but doesn't like anyone who thinks they're better than them. He also doesnt like flamboyant types like Zack who he deems weird, but he loves wrestling and looks up to Bass. He has an interest in girls as well too but he has eyes for Helena whom he's always deemed "mad hot", and he's pleasured himself to her countless times, dreaming of one day winning her heart and its a side motive for entering the tournament. He doesnt like Kasumi or Ayane thinking Kasumi is boring and he doesnt like Ayane since he deems her a bitch, and he has a slight complex about them being taller than them. He hates Christie, calling her an old hag and he thinks Nico and Marie Rose are nothing but flat chested little girls but he does find them cute. He thinks Honoka is nothing more than a ditzy bimbo but he does like her tho somewhat since she has a huge rack and is thicc. When fighting guests, he doesn't care much about them and isnt easily impressed, and he thinks Kula is a weird weaboo cosplayer freak and he thinks Mai is just a weird slut although he is fascinated by her figure. He also thinks Tamaki is a bit "loose" but he's interested in introducing her to his friends back home.



Gameplay: If he were a fighter, I would want him to be the only 9i striker male in the game, he's mobile and very quick and fights using street fighting and dirty tactics like knees, head butts, and harsh elbows to deal damage. He's very capable at fighting up close and at mid range, and he's a heavy hitter and can hit quite hard, and he's able to pressure his foes by charging certain attacks and he also has certain moves he can use to lunge at his opponent, including even a tackle take down.



A unique mechanic he has is a revenge type attack where he can use certain attacks or taunt like moves to take 1-2 hits while performing the move to hit his opponent while still taking damage, if he absorbs the attack and takes damage the moves will deal increased damage, but a trade off is that it's vulnerable to safe strikes, and are about -7 to -8 when blocked. His taunt that allows the same thing can multiple hits and if 3 hits are done it'll trigger a damaging attack sequence where he punches his foe in the chest flooring them and he stomps on them multiple times dealing good damage. The trade off however is that it won't trigger and he'll merely get angry and if more than 3 hits are done the taunt attack will be negated and he'll take a counter hit.



His throws are good, he has a tackle that can be used for a grapple ground assault, and he has the punish throws to make him a threat. He also has a reset from standing and crouching foes and he also has a jumping throw too. His holds are average but he'd have a mid punch expert hold that has him elbow his opponent in the gut that crumples them unless they hold out of it. His general stun game is littered with lifts and trip stuns and his revenge type attacks can crumple foes and he'd also possess a fatal stun.



Finally he'd have two special stances: Rebel stance and his delinquent jump. His rebel stance is a forward moving crouch stance where he briefly does a yanki squat to avoid highs, and he can follow up with one of the options to move in. His jump stance has him jump high in the air to avoid lows and it helps him move in from a distance, and he'd be able to use slower but good ranged attacks to either safely move in, apply pressure, or use his low from it to trip up the opponent.



His weaknesses would be that he has to play a more honest stun game, and he can not deal gut stuns unless he's risked a revenge attack or used his mid expert hold since he risks damage in those situations. His stances are also somewhat average in speed so you have to use them smartly, and he's a relatively safe fighter with ok tracking but his size means he's gonna have to play more up close since his range is roughly average, and since he's a lightweight, juggles are especially useful against him.



Some unique things he can do is throw a rock from the ground to hit his foe but it's a high unless he charges it, and if he charges it it becomes a mid but it loses range. Advantage is only +4 from afar and +0 up close on hit and blocking the high leaves you -8 but charged it'll be -5. He can also spit at his opponent as a taunt but it deals no damage. Overall he's a fast hard hitting character who's offensive heavy but he can also defend well.... At the cost of his own health but if you risk it all, his damage potential would be horrific.

Was a wanderer with no purpose but as of the events leading to doa6, Donovan called him with a task...

Personality: emotionally numb and lacking, his forced testing from MIST exceeded in removing his emotional feeling to turmoil unlike Phase 4 but at the cost of putting his emotional life-force into two twin cores that carry separate shards of his emotions for him. Overall behaves very quiet and nonchalant although he deep down longs for more

Design:(TBA)

Gameplay: (TBA)

A new concept I had made with @Rocckart on Twitter! Big thanks to him since he helped me visually recreate my idea for DJ in his style which was overhauled.

20230716_130002.jpg

Name: DJ( Full name is Deangelo James Normaniis.)

Age: 21 years old

Weight: 170 lbs.( A lightweight in DOA)

Height: 6"0

Nationality: Mixed(African American, Latino Trinidadian and Caucasian)

Fighting style: Break dance, Capoeira, Samba, and Freestyle

Alignment: Good

Hobbies: Dancing, Clubbing, Social Media, roller skating

Likes: Strawberry vodka, music, zumba, seafood, cobb salads, Trinidad and Tobago festivals, live streams via his social media accounts, rotel dip

Dislikes: Cold weather, unruly crowds

Occupation: professional break dancer, social media personality, online college and performing arts student,


Story: DJ is a previously novice dancer originating from California. Having a huge presence on social media and also being a known freestyle dancer, he's known to frequent clubs and locales that offer a stage to share his love of dancing.


He however was a victim to a jumping one night after leaving a nightclub with the gang of thugs attempting to steal his tips and earnings. With his knowledge however of variation and evasion in his dance, he was able to easily escape the situation leaving his assailants in a disoriented heap. It was from that night onwards that he developed an interest in combat, and he spent the next year learning to channel his dancing into a style that could be as formidable as it was flashy and flamboyant!


Having taken part in quite a couple of tournaments alongside his friend Mason, he was also contacted with interest from Helena Douglas who took note of his skills and gave him a special invitation to the DOA6 tournament. Hoping to wow and win over all spectrums of the crowd, he eagerly goes to participate in the next biggest challenge of his life!


Appearance: DJ is of mixed descent so he's lighter skinned with piercing grey eyes. He's tall at 6 ft. and has a skinny lean but still muscled figure based off Shunsuke the cosplayer, favoring a more dancer type body with a more balanced muscle tone. He has long brown loc hair that he wears a headband with to keep his bangs swept back, and he has a nose and ear piercing. If he had additional hair options, he would wear it fully loose or tied in a bun, or a ponytail.


His default is a sleevless white crop top hoodie with a fishnet mesh cut out and he wears low slung pants that show off his red music jockstrap underneath, and he has his red flame phone worn in his pocket. He wears also a few silver accessories like armbands and bracelets. His dress style is flamboyant and favoring summer type clothes like shorts and outfits that show skin in a practical way. He favors a balanced style that may cover more the opposite of what he shows. So if he wears very short shirts, he'll balance it with longer sleeved stylish open jackets and sandals. He's also very fond of jewelry like bracers and necklaces and watches.


Personality: Being a popular passionate dancer and party goer, DJ is very friendly and outgoing and loves to be the life of the party, and is also quite flamboyant as he is very flirtatious and teasing to his audience whether they're male or female. He's very kinetic so he generally likes to stay active as much as possible and doesn't like missing a beat. He's interested especially in beautiful women but he's also very gentleman like, and he has a slight interest in men as well since he's bicurious but has never dated either gender yet. He loves to give both a wondrous show that'll leave them asking for more.


He's friends with Mason who he met on social media, but unlike Mason who's more the cutesy fitness model type, DJ is more the western tiktok dance type. He's also acquainted with Tamaki as they've drank at a few bars together and he's a big fan of Lisa. He also is familiar with Helena who gave him the opportunity to showcase his skill in the tournament.


Gameplay: DJ is a capo type fighter who has a focus more on manual evasion and easy to use stance transitions. While average in speed, his kicks cover good mid to long range and he has alot of mix ups that can keep his opponent tripped up, having plenty of deceptive sweeps and mid range kick pokes. His punches are the opposite, with him having swifter punch attacks and slashes that lack in range besides more Samba oriented ones but are good for when he's up close.


His style is centered around mid range but he's also got tools for up close when needed. He has a hand stand stance that he can briefly use to create confusion and he has plenty of slower but still average speed attacks he can use to jump over or evade lows and highs making him tricky to hit if used properly. He's also got good pressure with him having some guard breaks he can use to apply decent pressure for him to set up his foe but these tend to be highs or may be slower mids.


His downside however is that he lacks in defensive tools since several of his attacks can manually crush highs and lows, and he only has one expert hold that targets mid punches. His throws deal good damage however and he has throws that can successfully make use of the environment but these tend to be slower. He also has OHs but only 3, with them mainly focusing on placing himself in in a favorable position for set ups. Overall is what I consider a similar take to Lisa, but more strike oriented and faster but with better reach and less reliant on grapples and throws. He favors a more strike based game plan with his throws being more for punishes and his holds are about the same.


He has a few unique stances, one is a split based one that has slower but harder hitting sweep kicks, and a Jack O type stance that leaves him crouching but with access to stronger arm slashes. After specific attacks, he can use the back button to enter a sway stance to create distance and enter a unique stance with more keep out strikes, or he can enter a similar forward Samba one for for offensive rushdown measures.


Overall for a tier standing, I'd want him to be a flawed high tier character who would have slow or bad normals to compensate his mix ups and potential once he starts getting his Samba and freestyle stance mix ups going. He'd have an easier learning curve but still would require almost moderate execution to use effectively. As far as match ups, he'd be able to easily dominate characters who are mostly rushdown but he's basically a 2.0 expanded version of Lisa if she had far less reliance on grapples and OHs and leaned more into speed and close spacing and footsies. He's also a lightweight, particularly around the same weight as Nico and Eliot so he's vulnerable to longer damage juggles.
