The character comes from India and is known as a wise Yoga Master. Through his extreme yoga training, Dhalsim can stretch his arms and legs incredibly long. This allows him to punch and kick his opponents from the other side of the screen. He can breathe fire out of his mouth. One of his mystical powers allows him to float in the air and instantly disappear and reappear. But, deep down, he is a pacifist; that means he loves peace, hates violence and only enters fighting tournaments to earn prize money for his poor village.
