Law
The proud son of Marshall Law, Forest trains at his father's
dojo to achieve Law's success and greatness. As a protective
father, Marshall has forbidden his son from entering any
contests outside the dojo. Marshall's long-time friend and
competitor Paul Phoenix visits once every few months to spar
with Marshall. One day when Paul arrived, Marshall was away
supervising the building of a new dojo. Paul insisted that Forest
join him in some training exercises. Forest declined knowing
that his father would disapprove. But Paul wouldn't take no for
an answer.
Unaware of Marshall's restrictions on fighting, Paul suggested
to Forest that he join 'The King of Iron Fist Tournament 3'. Paul
sold Forest on the idea by telling him he's a better fighter than
his father. Forest knew his father would be angry, but he had to
prove that he was worthy of one day inheriting the dojo.
Marshall was enraged when he found out what happened. To
him, it was as if his son had been kidnapped.
