Does anyone know of any fighting game characters (and specifically fighters--not anime or RPGs) that have some sort of major physical or mental handicap?

Mukuro from Gekka no Kenshi is dead, that's pretty dehabilitating...

Yagyu Jubei, Sagat, Rugal, Hiedern, Ramon, and probably others are missing an eye. Chang is also severly over rate. And I'm not sure, but I think Hugo might be retarded.

Well, Oro of SF3 purposefully bound his arm to give opponents a fighting chance. Dunno if that counts as a handicap though :P Guess it does... ^^

That's true, he's in a wheelchair in the original Final Fight, he's a cyborg in Mighty Final Fight, and he's a zombie in Final Fight Revenge... ha ha ha, he can blow himself up, too.

Is being overweight counted? ^_^ If it is there's tons of huge people!
Shuma-Gorath has only one eye as well, hehe. Now when I think of him, he reminds me of Mike from Monsters Inc. :)
As for undead... see cast of darkstalkers and LB2's Mukuro?

Because if we are talking about something mental or physical Terry, Guile, Gesse and various other characters could be both metally and physically handicapped because of their REALLY bad Engrish.
Any undead character can be considered handicapped.
Baiken, Sagat, Jubei, Oro etc could consider missing a body part a handicap
Other things are found to be a handicap such as Vega's Captain Jack outfit or Dan's Pink gi...bad fashion to some is considered a handicap.

Is it true nobody understand what Geese says in CvS? I thought I just had a bad hear (and Cammy....mi-ssion-com-ple-ted-sir)
Do girls that talk with their phone or danse in the middle of a fight count as mental illnesss? because I know 2 girls that.... And Nakoruru too is kind of retarded. She thinks Mamahaha and Shilku likes her, but they only wait she gets killed to eat her body. IT'S A FUCKING BIRD NAKORURU!! poor girl... Oh, and in Jojo N'doll is blind, but he doesn't count as a fighter, just a bonus stage I gess.

It's not a permanant handicap, but in "Angel Eyes" (An all-girl fighter by Tecmo, prior to the DOA series), there was an EX version of a bike rider character named "Highway Star".
Now usually, EX versions of characters are strong (Evil Ryu, Riot of the Blood Iori, etc). But Highway Star was much weaker in her EX version.
Her EX version was named.... "Major Injury on the Runway Highway Star".

Ukyo from Samurai Showdown has Tiberculosis (spelling?)Thats why he's always coughing up blood during the battle. In Sam Sho 2 Ukyo was fighting to find a cure for himself. He fights backwards too, but thats because he doesnt want to scar his pretty boy face.

It was released for Arcade & PSX. AE was a mediocre fighter except for the eccentric all-gal cast. I got suckered in thinking it would be somewhat similar (in quality) as Asuka 120% or Advanced V.G. games, but no... It sucked.
I think Choi Bounge (KOF) should be considered handicapped, also. Considering he definitely is challenged in height department.

He's blind, deaf, and mute. How does he manage to fight? That's a good question. His story doesn't explain it.

Kaede was losing his personality on LB 1 ;does that count?
Shingen was becoming a demon.
Basara is a phantom who is fading away with time.
Brian Fury is a ciorg that is malfuntioning and dying.
Jin Kazama is eing posessed y the Devil
Geese Howard was using the power of the secret scrolls; even though he knew they where cursed with destruction... maybe he didn't cared... HE IS THE MAN.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned, but Zato in Guilty Gear is also blind.
Really there are a lot of handicapped fighters when you start thinking about it. Of course, when you think about beating on a character in a wheelchair (Belgar, mentioned earlier, comes to mind) it's really a question of ethics... unless of course he's wielding an automatic crossbow and motoring around the room at 50kph.
