The
boss of Savage Reign, King Lion (Kage Shishioh) is responsible for holding the Battle of the
Beast God tournament, wielding a sword called "The Sword of Leo." He appeared as King's Striker in King
of Fighters 2000 and is
also the boss of Neo Geo
Battle Coliseum.
King Lion (blue) is the impersonator of King Leo (red) also known as Shin
Shishioh. King Lion participates in the tournament on the latter's orders and
uses the name King Lion as an element of intimidation. However, he really
wants to take the city for himself and plans to overthrow the original crime
lord. In his ending to the games, he takes over the futuristic city with an
iron fist.
King Leo is a legendary fighter who got bored of the fighting circuit and
silently disappeared from within the darkness of secrecy. Upon returning back
to the public, King Leo decided to host and sponsor the Battle of the Beast
God tournaments in the Savage Reign series to prove his strength to worthy
opponents. To distract the competition, he also raised an impostor of himself
named King Lion so that he can test out his challengers and see if they have
what it takes to battle against him from within their own given time and
accord. He was unstoppable until he was defeated by Hayate
and later Jyazu.
