Angel

Angel first appeared without any storyline explanation, save for the fact that Angel fights with Devil over Kazuya's soul. As Angel was originally a palette swap and direct clone of Devil, and as implied in Angel's Tekken 2 biography, it was thought that Angel was a representation of the good in Kazuya. Angel's biography states that when some people looked at Kazuya, some could see Angel and others could see Devil. Subsequently, however, Katsuhiro Harada, has stated that Angel is not a part of Kazuya's soul. It is unknown what happened to Angel or its connection to the Devil Gene, as no canonical games after Tekken 2 have featured the character.

A very elusive character in the series, Angel is a rather enigmatic figure. A heavenly exterior contrasts with a rather brutal and almost terrifying demeanor that Angel exhibits during fights. As a being of light, Angel seeks to help those who are corrupted by evil. Angel is shown to be graceful and elegant, but this is juxtaposed with a frightening side in which Angel will shriek and bellow like a wild animal. Across the series, Angel has acted to save others, utilizing powers of light to keep evil at bay and purify those who might be brainwashed by malignant forces. Overall, Angel is the clear opposite of Devil, although the serene demeanor is often replaced by ferocious and violent outbursts.

Angel has the appearance of a human woman, with large, white, feathered wings. Angel has blue eyes and blonde hair pulled to the back of the head in a bun. Angel has a tiara with a gemstone set in the center, from which lasers can be emitted. Angel wears white, with earlier costumes showing a sleeveless top tied with a band around the middle, three-quarters length pants and sandals crossed up the leg, reminiscent of an Ancient Greek or Roman style. Angel's design has other inspirations from Antiquity, with a toga as a main outfit in Tekken Tag Tournament 2. Angel also often wears an olive branch, which in Ancient Greek culture was associated with victory and also carries religious significance as a sign of peace. In TTT2, Angel also has some more military imagery, and wore armored gauntlets too. Angel's Player 1 outfit is a modified version of the primary outfit from previous games. Angel wears a flowing, white, silk, off-the-shoulder top pinned with a blue gem in a gold holder that is also fastened to a sprig of laurel. With this, Angel wears short, detached sleeves with decorative gold arm bands over glossy metal gauntlets with gold trim at the ends as well as over the wrists. At the tails and collar of Angel's top is decorative gold knotwork. Angel also wears a gold chain belt with large purple and blue gems and gold pendants at each side connected to a flowing square of fabric at the hips. The top portion of Angel's pants is made of a glossy lame type material, which changes when reaching the copper bands around Angel's knees to silk. The pants are flared at the bottoms with a split along the inner side, showing both Angel's bare feet and the gold anklet with a small blue gem around Angel's left ankle. There is a matching blue gem on the silver circlet around Angel's head.
