"FATHEEEEER!"

Dan Hibiki might just be the weakest character on the Street Fighter roster. A self-taught martial artist who owns and runs his own (failing) dojo in Japan, he was originally motivated by avenging his father's murder by the Shadaloo enforcer Sagat, leading him to seek out the legendary martial arts master Gouken - the same man who'd trained Ryu and Ken. Turned away for both his vengeful ambition and his blatant lack of ability, Dan instead used what little he'd learned and everything he could crib from other people's styles to develop his own martial art, Saikyo Style.

After finally getting his match with Sagat, Dan would go on to be recruited into the CWA wrestling association as a jobber due to his insane ability to take a beating. When the Commissioner, Belger, was removed from his post due to his criminal dealings, Dan was selected as his successor.

Despite his total lack of skill as a martial artist, Dan's doing pretty well for himself at the end of the day.
