Olcadan
http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s68/MJOLNIR_VII/Olcadan.jpg
Once, in an age now found only in myth, there was a man known by the name of
Olcadan who was skilled in every kind of fighting art.
With one single exception that had ended in a draw, he could boast that he
had been completely undefeated in innumerable duels he had fought. He then
turned his eyes to the Gods. He fought and defeated a great owl that was a
messenger of the God of war. The angry God cursed Olcadan, turning his head
into that of an owl. Upon seeing this curse, the people tried to obtain the
Gods' forgiveness by capturing Olcadan. Sorcerers known as the "sages of the
oak" were sent after him. They took advantage of the vow he had made in order
to become strong and captured him.
The God of war appeared in the form of a headless great owl, and sent Olcadan
down into an ancient ruin that sprawled deep beneath the earth.
Unable to find an exit, he gave up and resigned himself to his fate, falling
into a deep slumber.
The power of the Evil Seed, however, broke the seal of the labyrinth and
Olcadan managed to escape. Stepping out from the labyrinth for the first time
in an eternity, he learned that the world outside had changed greatly since his
era. He was not particularly troubled by this, however. Those waves of power
that had interrupted his sleep were undoubtedly the greatest power of this era.
He learned to survive in the new world by teaching people the fighting
techniques that himself had developed, and, over the course of several years.
Gradually learned about this era. Then, in order to restore his combat senses
that had dulled over the course of his long sleep, he once again cut off
contact with the world by holing up inside the labyrinth. He will challenge the
most powerful opponent of the era. That opponent is a pair of swords that had
been young and weak in his era, but these weapons, crafted by the hands of man,
now rivaled the Gods...

Oro
http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s68/MJOLNIR_VII/Oro.gif
His distinguishing features are his near-total baldness, extreme age, and
glowing red eyes. He also wears a simple, worn, cloth garment (his left
arm is bound inside the clothing). He is a mysterious hermit, so very little
else is known about him other than his age (he is 140 years old).
Oro is referred to as a Sennin by Akuma during a bout between the two at
the third World Warrior tournament. He also defeats Ryu in the same tournament,
after which he declares that Ryu will be ready to fight him in another fifteen
years, hoping that he will be forced to use both his arms by then. Oro possesses
tremendous physical and spiritual prowess for a man of his (or any) age,
and is capable of the execution of many strange (though vastly effective)
fighting techniques. Oro sees Ryu as a potential successor to his form of
martial arts, after he has mastered his current style. Oro's boredom has reached the limit.
Oro has accepted many students, but most of them are unworthy and
can't endure the practice sessions. Then one day, a rumor from the outside world
reached his ears. He hears about the mysterious organization and Akuma. He
decides to leave his cave for the outside world and uncover the rumors himself.
Oro has beensensing some powerful ki for some time. He finally tracks it down
and finds Akuma! Out of curiousity to see how powerful each other is, they fight.
Third Strike dialogue indicates that the fight was more
just to see each others' strength than anything serious, so there probably
was no death matching.
Battle takes place in the Grand Labyrinth.
