is a character in the ''Tekken'' fighting game series. The character is a homage to martial artist Bruce Lee and shares many characteristics with the famous martial artist, even uttering similar high-pitched shouts and whoops when he performs certain strikes and attacks. He has a son named Forest Law, who is based on Brandon Lee, and his name is an obvious pun of martial law, which is military rule over a nation. He also appears in the game ''Urban Reign'', along with his friend Paul Phoenix. ==In video games== Marshall Law is a Chinese American that fights using various martial arts. Sometimes known as "The Fighting Chef", he is a close friend of Paul Phoenix during ''Tekken 1'' and ''Tekken 2'', and he is the father of Forest Law. He entered the first King of Iron Fist Tournament in order to gain enough money so he could start his own dojo. Marshall does get enough money for his dojo as a runner-up and took Wang Jinrei to a draw. He is indeed married as "Mrs. Law" is seen in Yoshimitsu's ending. In ''Tekken 2,'' Marshall enters the tournament to exact his revenge on the taekwondo master Baek Doo San, who attacked the former's pupils and destroyed his dojo. In ''Tekken 3'', Marshall declined to participate in this tournament. Afterwards, Paul and Marshall fall out somewhat after Paul convinces the latter's son, Forest, to enter The King of Iron Fist Tournament 3. Before ''Tekken 4,'' Marshall finds success as the master of a martial arts dojo, and as the owner of a restaurant chain called "Marshall China", back in the USA. However, a rival restaurant chain drives him bankrupt, and he falls into a depressed, alcoholic state. However, when ''The King of Iron Fist Tournament 4'' is announced, he beats himself back into shape to compete in the tournament, determined to pick up his business again. At the end of ''Tekken 4'', after Marshall fails to win the tournament, he is completely broke, and he now works as a dishwasher at a restaurant in Japan. Just before the events of ''Tekken 5'', he receives a phone call from his wife in America. She informs him that Forest was badly hurt in an accident while riding on Paul Phoenix's motorcycle. Marshall enters the 5th Iron Fist tournament in order to pay his son's medical bills. During the middle of the King of Iron Fist Tournament 5, it was discovered that Marshall Law was working illegally in Japan, and as a result he was immediately deported to his home country in the United States. With the deadline to pay for the damages of his son’s accident fast approaching, hopes of getting the money needed were slim. Just then, his best friend Paul Phoenix approached him with the idea of forming a team—securing a high-ranking prize alone would certainly be difficult, but if he was part of a team, the probability of winning would be much higher. Marshall accepted Paul’s invite, but thinking a three-man team was better than two, the renowned boxer Steve Fox caught his attention. Marshall is one of the few characters at the time who did not appear in the non-canon ''Tekken'' game, ''Tekken Tag Tournament'', but Forest appeared in the game. However, in the sequel, ''Tekken Tag Tournament 2'', Marshall makes an appearance and Forest appears in the console version, making it the first time to have both Laws playable in the same game. Marshall appears in ''Street Fighter X Tekken'', with his partner, Paul and outside of the ''Tekken'' series, they appeared in the Namco beat 'em up video game ''Urban Reign'' as playable characters. Marshall appears in the free-to-play game, ''Tekken Revolution'', as a default character. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Marshall Law (Tekken)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
