Bogard, Jeff

ジェフ・ボガード / 杰夫·博加德

Jeff Bogard is a background character in the Fatal Fury series. He is the adoptive father of Terry Bogard and Andy Bogard. His age is unknown, but he was older than Geese Howard before his death.
Jeff Bogard was a student at the secret Hakkyokuseiken school. There, he met fellow students Geese Howard and Cheng Sinzan, and they soon became good friends. Training under master Tung Fu Rue, the three became known at the time as the "Three Brothers of Godly Battle". As time passed, the day arrived when Tung had to choose one of his two best students (Jeff and Geese) to inherit the school's secret techniques. Tung saw that Geese had evil ambitions and Jeff had a good heart, so he chose Jeff. Geese was furious and left, swearing revenge on both of them.
In 1981, Jeff returned to the USA with his master, Tung. There, he adopted two sons, Terry and Andy. One day, Jeff, Tung, and the kids were walking down the street when a car stopped them. Geese's men attacked Jeff with knives, badly injuring him. Geese then jumped out of the car and attacked the injured Jeff, killing him in front of his two children.
Bereaved and grieving, this tragedy motivated the Bogard brothers to travel around the world to learn martial arts, so that one day they might get their revenge against the man who killed their father, Geese Howard. Before taking part in any tournament, the brothers pay their respects at his gravestone.
