Charles de Guise: Difference between revisions

A [[wikipedia:History of the Jews in France|French Jew]] and colonel (chief intelligence officer) in the French army that works with the Qing-Bang. Although he has mastered [[Hokuto Sonka Ken|Sonkaken]], he prefers using conventional fighting methods like guns and swords, irritating even the likes of [[Mang Kuang-Yun]] at one point. He has a sister, Sophie, who suffered trauma resulting in memory suppression due to her experiences in escaping from Nazi Germany as her husband (a non-Jewish German who was prohibited from marrying her by Nazi law) got sent to a [[wikipedia:Nazi concentration camps|concentration camp]]. When she regained her memory by Kenshiro's acupressure, she was assassinated by Zhang Tai Yan. De Guise was eventually wounded fatally by Liú Fēi-Yàn when the latter deemed him unfit to take care of Erika and challenged him to a duel. [[Kenshiro Kasumi|Kenshiro ]] used acupressure techniques on him to prolong his life just long enough to watch his friends staging a glimpse of his vision -- a Shanghai in prosperity (where Jews can take refuge). Believing that Kenshiro and friends will make it come true, he then died in peace.

*Charles de Guise bears several similarities to [[Rei ]] from Hokuto no Ken. Both bear villanous appearances when they first appear but are soon revealed to be on the good side as well as crucial allies to the main character. Both have younger sisters who suffer from disorders and both die after their lives are briefly extended.
