History[]
Pre-Game[]
T'ai Fu was born to Lau Fu, the White Tiger Master. Before the Tiger Clan was decimated, T'ai was hidden among the Panda Clan.
T'ai Fu: Wrath of the Tiger[]
T'ai Fu, a tiger raised by the Panda Clan, is the last of his own clan. As the de facto leader of the other clans, the Tiger Clan rallied everyone against the forces of the Dragon Clan, several years prior to the game. These fights wiped out the Tiger Clan, the Mantis Clan, and the Dragon Clan.
Years later, the Dragon Master, the last surviving Dragon Clan member, got word of a tiger that was still alive. Arriving at the Panda Clan's temples, he forced his way in and found T'ai. Attacking him, he left T'ai for dead and told his snake guards to finish up. Once T'ai regains consciousness, he is set out on a journey to find out about his past, become a Kung Fu master, and defeat the Dragon Master.
Along the way, T'ai comes across some ancient Tiger Clan ruins. There, he defeats one of the Snake Clan bosses and meets the Mantis Master. The Mantis, the last living member of the Mantis Clan, becomes T'ai Fu's teacher. T'ai is shown the way to the other clans and learns from them.
Near the end, T'ai locates his father's burial shrine and Lau Fu's spirit appears to him. Lau Fu teaches his son how to unleash the power of his clan in order to defeat the Dragon Master. Once the Dragon Master is defeated, T'ai is greeted by his father's spirit once more. Lau grants T'ai the gift of his chi and he departs. The Mantis Master appears and tells T'ai that he must lead the Clans toward the future. The two then leave the Dragon Master's palace.
