History
Bloody Roar
The young boy, Hans, under the name 'Fox', is an assassin for the Tylon Corporation. He was a child of the streets and developed a disturbing love for blood and killing. He dislikes his Zoanthrope side, seeing it as a very ugly form. One day, Fox was taking his wrath out on a group of people. A woman who he had just fatally injured calls out his real name; It was someone who Hans wished could have done better for him. It was his mother. She died right before his very eyes. Fox couldn't believe what he'd done. His actions drove him to insanity as he laughed into the night.

Gameplay
In the first Bloody Roar game, Fox happened to be one of the fastest characters in the entire game, with quick strikes, but lacked in strength, only chipping away at the opponent's life bar. Most of his move list and animations were later passed down to Jenny the Bat, who first appeared in Bloody Roar 2.

Trivia

- During an interview, Kenji Fukuya was asked about bringing back Hans to what he responded: "There seemed to be many supports for adding a Fox Zoanthrope, including a Hans comeback, but regarding the rebirth of this character, whether it can be done in the next game or not, I thought about a special thing on how to make all the characters reappear." [2]
- In the European release Fox is identified as a girl.
- Some of his moves and aspects of his playstyle have been given to Xion, Cronos, and Jenny in the next games.
