Azazel made his debut
in Tekken 6 as the primary antagonist. He was most likely named after the
famed demon in Judeo-Christian mythology. Little is known about Azazel's
history, other than that he is the embodiment of the ultimate evil guarded in a
tomb by Zafina, set to be released after the clash of
"two evil stars".
Azazel looks much like
the Egyptian god Set, with blue-gray skin, a large, spiked tail used for
attacking, and huge spikes of ice/crystal growing out of his forearms. He also
wears an Egyptian ceremonial headdress and loincloth.
Like many supernatural
entities before him, Azazel appears to have the advantage of superpowered
abilities over his opponents. These include a powerful stun attack (similar to Jinpachi
Mishima), and eye lasers. He also has the ability to summon boulders from
the ground and set them on his opponents. He can also summon scarabs made of ice
to attack opponents and parts of his body get destroyed after taking too much
damage.
In Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion, there exists a golden version of
Azazel. Currently, it is up to speculation on how players can get to it. Its
moves appear to remain the same, but Gold Azazel is reportedly stronger. The
reward for defeating him is 20,000 G.
