APPEARANCE & PERSONALITY
A Hot Blooded Man
introduction

"Just drop it already. Focus on fighting."
—Jann Lee in Dead or Alive 5.

Jann Lee (Chinese: 振李, Pinyin: Zhèn Lǐ, Katakana: ジャン・リー, Rōmaji: Jan Rī, On'yomi: Shin Ri) is a professional bouncer and Jeet Kune Do martial artist who made his debut in the first Dead or Alive. Throughout the series, Jann Lee's only goal is to become the greatest fighter of all time. To realize his goal, Jann Lee dedicates his life to endless training and repeatedly enters the Dead or Alive Tournament to prove his skills against others who join. After the first four tournaments ended in losses for him, he became the winner of the 5th Dead or Alive Tournament. While he possesses his own backstory and plot arcs within the series, Jann Lee tends to keep himself distanced from the rest of the fighters, though he has developed relationships, mostly rivalries (friendly and antagonistic), with other participants. Like other Jeet Kune Do characters before him, Jann Lee is very similar to the late martial artist and movie star, Bruce Lee.

APPEARANCE

Jann Lee is a young man of Chinese origin, roughly 22 years old. He has a tanned complexion, which differs in shade in later games, sometimes appearing darker and other times lighter. His appearance acknowledges his Asian nationality, particularly in his eyes and hair. Jann Lee keeps his dark brown hair in an upward-swept spiky style with a close-cropped back and sharply-tapered sideburns. His eyes are light hazel in color and almond shaped and he possesses peculiar-looking eyebrows, with the inner ends curving downward and the outer tip angling upward and the entire brow narrowing from the inner end to the outer. One other noticeable feature in all of his appearances is his muscular build, which is apparent as he usually appears shirtless. Because of his rigorous training in body-building and martial arts, Jann Lee is startlingly buff, with highly-defined biceps, arms, and legs, a broad chest and shoulders, carved abdominal six-pack, and a muscular back.

Like most of the men in Dead or Alive, Jann Lee prefers to wear clothing that tailor to his natural styles. While most of the male combatants wear shirts in default outfits, Jann Lee prefers to show his upper body, frequently appearing bare chested during his fights, both in the ring and out. He typically favors wearing only kenpo pants or trousers-and-chaps with a tied belt of fabric, however he does prefer different martial arts outfits ranging from Bruce Lee's signature yellow jumpsuit to Kung-fu suits with dragon emblem, also usually associated with Bruce Lee. Outside the ring, Jann Lee alternates between formal and casual wear. Being a bouncer of a high-class club, he wears Western and Eastern formal suits, but during training, he tends to veer casual with tank tops, jeans, or slacks.

In Dead or Alive 5, his overall design was changed only slightly. While still retaining his signature hair, muscular build, and outfit themes, he appears to have a lighter, more yellow-toned skin, making him look closer to his Chinese roots. He also has a more natural muscular build, and more natural, realistic facial features. He has a new traditional martial arts outfit for his first costume, trading his previous stirrup-styled footwear and kung fu slippers for leather bracers and boots. Additionally, in the later versions of the game, Jann Lee appears to be more sexualized, as for the first time, he was given two risqué costumes: a MMA-style wrestling outfit with only black briefs and fingerless gloves, and a beach outfit with only a pair of black-and-yellow, tight-fitting, boxer-brief-style swim trunks, which are his most revealing costumes in the series.

PERSONALITY

Jann Lee is a rather straightforward character with hidden complexities. His life revolves around fighting, which links to different aspects of his personality. Being a self-taught master of Jeet Kune Do, Jann Lee is a very confident fighter, as he knows his skills and training inside and out. In fact, sometimes he becomes so confident in his skills that he can come off as arrogant and rude, which is rather contrary to the laid-back personality of Bruce Lee, whom he is based off. Before fights, he sometimes declares another win for himself, or that his fist has never once let him down. This confidence, however, ensures that he never backs down from a challenge. Despite not acting outwardly aggressive unless prompted (which is actually easy to do and sometimes unintentional), Jann Lee loves to fight. Seeking to prove his strength against strong opponents, he never stops looking for a challenge, which is again contrary to Bruce Lee, who preferred to teach others rather than test his own skills. After winning a fight, he'll comment on how weak his opponent was; things like "You'll have to hit me harder than that!", or "Come on, make my blood boil!", repeating his desire to fight a stronger opponent.

His near-obsession with strength and personal training stem from his childhood, where he was orphaned at an extremely early age and never knew the face of his parents. Only knowing they were dead, he was forced to live on the streets and scrape for food by fighting, begging, or stealing. Jann Lee picked up Jeet Kune Do from old Bruce Lee movie films as a means of protecting himself and as an escape from his harsh reality. Without anyone to rely on for his youth, he was always distanced from society due to his poverty and this distance remains in his adult life, which is what prompts his arrogance and curt behavior since that’s what he grew up with from other people. Making up for his childhood, he strives to prove to everyone he is the best there is, though often only finds the path to this recognition to be through fighting. His pride is a validation of his own existence and while he’s not extremely flamboyant or showy, his taking on a job as a high profile bouncer and his chosen martial arts style point towards his determination to never again be pushed around or struggle to survive.

Jann Lee believes in power and strength, most likely because he had none as a child and thus equates it to what makes him comfortable and proud. Apart from fighting others, he pushes himself with the same dogma he holds others to. He likes to train constantly and, when he's not sparring, he's working out. Jann Lee puts himself through rigorous training to hone his techniques and build upon his internal belief: one must feel the power within oneself. For him, physical conditioning is almost an obsession and it shows on his body and in his actions. This extends even beyond his fighting abilities, as he can choose to come across as very imposing, able to end fights simply by glaring or displaying what his opponent is up against. However, he’s never shown to use his strength or his abilities to bully others or continue a fight once it’s over, as that would not be a challenge for him.

Despite his pride and his childhood, however, Jann Lee isn’t heartless or unfeeling. He has also shown care and respect to others at times and has been seen to develop positive relationships with other fighters over the course of the series, including Hayabusa and most notably Leifang. For Jann Lee, respect comes when two people display their own confidence and strength. Hayabusa is a master ninja and Jann Lee and he have often met up during tournaments to test each other’s skills, ranging from martial arts to competing at nunchaku. This mutual respect created a friendly rivalry between the two. Jann Lee respects others’ martial arts and strength and has extended this to other fighters as well, including Hayate (Hayabusa’s best friend), Hitomi, and Kokoro. Beyond respecting others, he has shown to be caring and willing to act for others’ safety, especially if he perceives them as weaker than himself and thus in need of his assistance. His relationship with Leifang is the prime example of this as he saw her about to take on a gang of thugs by herself and voluntarily stepped in to defeat them before she could get hurt. While this annoyed Leifang’s pride, he doesn’t seem too concerned about her attempts to defeat him and calmly acknowledges her growth when he and she do battle during tournaments. There is a running gag that Jann Lee’s attempts to protect people backfire, as seen with Leifang and another time where he saves Hitomi from an attacking dinosaur, and she becomes irate at his treatment of the dinosaur, prompting a fight.

ETYMOLOGY

Jann Lee's name is a Japanese reading of the Chinese name 振李 "Zhèn Lǐ" (Cantonese: Jan Lei).

COSTUMES

Being a dedicated martial artist and a high-class bouncer, most of Jann Lee's outfits are martial art uniforms and formal coat-and-tie suits. A recurring theme for Jann Lee's outfits is the dragon symbol, a reference to Bruce Lee, as well as Jann Lee's nickname.

In every installment, Jann Lee has a shirtless costume, usually only wearing Kung Fu pants or chaps, and a formal business attire. Recurring costumes include the usual Dragon slacks and the famous yellow tracksuit (since Dead or Alive 4), both of which are references to Bruce Lee.

The following is a catalogue of alternative costumes available for Jann Lee in Dead or Alive 5.





ABILITIES, QUOTES, TRIVIA
A Passionate Fighter
ABILITIES

Jann Lee is a practitioner and perfectionist of Jeet Kune Do.

Jeet Kune Do (截拳道, Way of the Intercepting Fist) is a hybrid martial arts system and life philosophy founded by world renowned martial artist and actor Bruce Lee in 1967. In 2004, the Bruce Lee Foundation decided to use the name Jun Fan Jeet Kune Do (振藩截拳道) to refer to the martial arts system that Lee founded. "Jun Fan" was Lee's Chinese given name.

The system works on the use of different 'tools' for different situations, broken down into ranges - Kicking, Punching, Trapping, and Grappling - with techniques flowing smoothly between them. It is referred to as a "style without style." Unlike traditional martial arts, Jeet Kune Do is not fixed or patterned and is a philosophy with guiding thoughts.

The core concepts of Jeet Kune Do are derived from Wing Chun. This includes such ideas as centerline control, punching with a vertical fist, trapping, and forward pressure. Through his personal research and readings, Lee also incorporated ideas from Boxing and Fencing. Later during the development of Jeet Kune Do, he would expand it to include the art for personal development, not just to become a better fighter.

One of the theories of Jeet Kune Do is that a fighter should do whatever is necessary to defend himself, regardless of where the techniques come from. One of Lee's goals in Jeet Kune Do was to break down what he claimed were limiting factors in traditional martial arts training and seek a fighting thesis which he believed could only be found within the reality of a fight. Jeet Kune Do is currently seen as the genesis of the modern state of hybrid martial arts.

In Dead or Alive, Jann Lee is one of the fastest striking characters with quick, intricate chain combos as well as sudden, hard-hitting "super blows". Because of this, he can be considered a "strike" character in that he relies on quick combos to wear down the enemy and keep them on the defensive. This is in keeping with the concept of Jeet Kune Do, which focuses on intercepting the enemy by countering directly and being faster than them. As well, several of his counters concentrate on opening the enemy up for a counter-attack (Trace Gunner).

Jann Lee's preferred distance is long-range, as his attacks have very good reach (Sekkan Chop) and his most powerful attacks have a pause duration (e.g. Dragon Kick, Dragon Spike) that allows the opponent to easily punish him in his recovery time frame if they are able to avoid being hit. Some of these attacks (e.g. Dragon Elbow, Dragon Knuckle) even leave him with his back to the opponent, ironically opposite to Bruce Lee's teaching that one should never take their eyes off their opponent. However, his true weakness is his lack of a strong mix-up game, meaning most of his attacks can be countered in high to middle, and he lacks sufficient low attacks in his repertoire, even though Jeet Kune Do often uses low attacks as the first line of defence. He also lacks a good juggling ability. Nevertheless, his relative ease of use and combination of fast strikes with powerful blows makes him a very preferred character for all-level players.

TRIVIA

His name is a reference to Bruce Lee's real name: "Lee Jun Fan."

Jann Lee shares the same birthday (November 27th) as Bruce Lee.

As shown in his Dead or Alive 4 ending, Jann Lee can play the trumpet.

Jann Lee is one of only two non-ninja characters who has won a Dead or Alive tournament, the other being Helena Douglas.

Ironically, Jann Lee has begun obsessing over beating Rig in Dead or Alive 5, just as Leifang was obsessed over beating him.

Jann Lee is mentioned throughout the Dead or Alive Xtreme sub-series through Leifang as the player interacts with a gold trumpet, pizza, french fries, etc.

Strangely enough in Dead or Alive 5, he has the most toned and fit physique in the game, even surpassing Hayabusa, Hayate, and Ein, who are all well known for their muscularity, and because they are well trained ninjas. It may be because of his obsession for physical conditioning his body, and because his body build is slightly modeled after Bruce Lee.

Jann Lee's Dead or Alive 3 ending seems to contain references to two Bruce Lee films: First, the scene where one of the club customers stubs his cigar out on the table is similar to a scene from Way of the Dragon. Second, when one fighter attacks Jann Lee with a nunchaku only to have him take it from him and demonstrate far greater skill with the weapon, this is similar to a scene in Enter the Dragon.
HISTORY & RELATIONSHIPS
A Scorching Soul
HISTORY

Early Life
Jann Lee has never seen the faces of his parents; they died when he was very young and left him an orphan, alone to fend for himself. He lived in poverty, having to wander the streets for food, and faced many hardships. In order to protect himself, Jann Lee learned Jeet Kune Do by watching various martial arts films; especially from Bruce Lee. At first he fought to replace the feelings of loss from when his parents died, but eventually Jann Lee fought purely for the sake of fighting. Eventually, he got skilled enough to get a job as a bouncer at a high-class club. Several years before the first tournament, he saved a young girl who was challenged by a gang of street fighters. Though prepared to take them on single-handedly, Leifang was suddenly rescued by Jann Lee. This incident left her determined to find and defeat him.

The First Tournament
Jann Lee entered the first Dead or Alive Tournament for the sake of the fight. Now the self-taught master of Jeet Kune Do, he seeks the thrill of battle whenever he can. During the tournament, he meets the girl that he saved - Leifang - who is ready to defeat him to prove that she is a great fighter like him. However, Jann Lee wins and Leifang goes on to train harder.

The Second Tournament
Jann Lee fights from his soul. He appears at battles where only the strongest of men fight. He strives for each attack to be the most powerful strike he has ever made in his life. For this reason, Jann Lee once again enters the Dead or alive tournaments. Fighting his way along the tournament, Jann Lee crosses arms with Hayabusa, who warns him about the real nature of the tournament and claims that he will not be able to survive long. Afterwards, he meets Leifang again. Having perfected her Kung-fu, she vows to prove to the man who saved her that she can handle things on her own. Despite Jann Lee defeating Leifang again, it was Hayabusa who made it to the final round, and who would later kill the Tengu Bankotsubo, and win the tournament. Returning home, he tests his strength against a giant tree, which he easily destroys with a single punch. It would suggest that Jann Lee came in 2nd place of the Tournament.

The Third Tournament
Jann Lee, the fighter without a cause, still walks a lonely path. Though the reputation of Jann Lee - the Dragon, as he is called - is universal, his search for a stronger enemy never ends. His presence is still prominent in the third Dead or Alive tournament, and his battle cry can still be heard. Along the way, he meets Hitomi for the first time. Sharing a keen passion for martial arts, the two shared martial arts philosophies and demonstrated their own martial arts skills. Continuing, he encounters Leon, who praised him for making it far in the tournament, all the while claiming that he is the strongest. Aboard the Freedom Survivor, Leifang, having trained hard, asks for another rematch with Jann Lee. However, he ignores her challenge and starts to walk away. Nearby, Hitomi and Hayate are about to have a friendly spar when Leifang is thrown by Jann Lee across the room, landing on a nearby table. Hitomi intrudes and gets mad at him for being too hard, but Leifang insists that she stay out of their business. Ignoring both girls, Jann Lee notices Hayate and asks for a fight. After the tournament, Jann Lee returns home to his job as a bouncer. While working, Jann Lee stops a group of arrogant customers from defacing a table inside the club. Challenging them outside, Jann Lee easily defeats the group all by himself, causing the leader of the group to flee in fear.

The Fourth Tournament
The heat that burns the soul and the scorching that says you are truly alive; these all come from the power of the fist. What Jann Lee is really searching for is the elation, the heat, which comes from trading blows with one who is truly powerful. This is the only reason that Jann Lee attempts to emerge victorious in the next Dead or Alive tournament. Fighting his way along the fourth tournament, Jann Lee "rescues" a distracted Hitomi from a dinosaur. Even though Hitomi was almost eaten by the creature, she found Jann Lee's approach to be quite "cruel". Hayabusa and Jann Lee also encounter each other again, and they both have a friendly Nunchaku exhibition before sparring. At the beginning of the destruction of DOATEC, Leifang meets Jann Lee in the Great Hall, and once again Leifang challenges and finally defeats Jann Lee. After their fight, Leifang encounters Alpha-152, who proved to be too powerful. Jann Lee mysteriously appears and once again rescues her. After the tournament, Jann Lee returns to his normal, everyday life in China. While playing the trumpet, Jann Lee remembers his childhood. He had a memory where he was walking in front of two or three thugs in a restaurant during a rainstorm, asking them for something to eat. The man in the sunglasses makes a "come here" gesture towards Lee, "offering" him a pastry. As he reaches out to take it, the man turns his hand over, letting the pastry fall to the ground, wasting it. The man then proceeds to slap & punch poor young Lee just before stepping on the pastry in front of him, later showing him in tears sobbing. Then the scene shows Jann Lee watching an unknown "Bruce Lee" film while clenching his fist in inspiration. Then the scene ends with an Adult Jann Lee in the present day, kicking a hole in his punching bag.

The Fifth Tournament
Jann Lee is initially introduced training with nunchaku in the Temple of the Dragon, where he is approached by Kokoro, who is passing through. He notices Kokoro walk in on his exercise turned demonstration, beckoning her to display her skills with the weapon as he tosses them toward her. Kokoro chooses not to catch them, causing them to go through a vase and break it, causing Kokoro to ask why he did it. Following this, they proceed to battle. While training in a forest in South America, Jann Lee is approached by Zack, who gives him an invitation to Dead or Alive 5. Jann Lee accepts the invite but he challenges Zack to fight. During this time, Hitomi and Leifang observe from the forest, though he seems not to notice them. Later in New York, Jann Lee is seen leaving a gym as he is shadowed by Leifang. He is followed into the train by Leifang, during which he prevents a middle aged man from accidentally groping her as the train comes to an abrupt stop. Following this, Jann Lee challenges Leifang to a fight, noting that she would gladly accept a match with him, misunderstanding her true intentions. They proceed to fight. However, the train crashes and tips to the side, resulting in Jann Lee and Leifang collapsing onto one of the walls, with her on top of him. Jann Lee is later seen in a bar, shoving Brad into a table, telling him to leave, insulting him as he does. Rig attempts to break up the fight, which can be seen as successful, as Jann Lee then focuses on Rig rather than Brad. He challenges Rig to a fight, noting that he looks like a real fighter. Following this, they battle, which Jann Lee loses. During the tournament, Jann Lee's opponent during the quarterfinals is Leifang, who is still embarrassed by the train car incident. Jann Lee tells her to focus on the fight, following which they battle, resulting in Jann Lee's victory marking his fourth win against her. Following this, Jann Lee battles Bass Armstrong, which is another victory for him. He then fights Hitomi in the finals, a match in which he is victorious, granting him the title of champion of the fifth Dead or Alive tournament. However, before he can be crowned by Zack, he goes to a bar for a few moment for a drink, noting that he only has one more person to defeat. The screen goes over images of Rig, suggesting that he is holding a grudge toward him for the defeat earlier in the story, he then goes back to the arena where he's going to be crowned as the "winner."

RELATIONSHIPS

Leifang
Leifang was once saved by Jann Lee from a gang of thugs years before the first tournament. Not wanting anyone to assume that she can't handle things on her own, Leifang entered the tournaments to defeat Jann Lee. However, it is unclear whether Leifang harbors anything more beyond her one-sided rivalry, as sometimes, it is implied that the two might have a secret longing for each other. In Dead or Alive 2, Leifang perfected her Kung-fu in order to defeat him and become "a part of his world" only to lose to him in which he replies to her, "This is not the place for you." indicating the hard life of fighting he has done and she does not have to fight. He defeats her once more in Dead or Alive 3. Regardless of how much Jann Lee beats her in the combat arena, Leifang still persistently tries to keep up with him. In the events of Dead or Alive 4, when they meet for battle and the Tritowers begin to detonate, he tells her "What do you say, Should we die together?" She tells him, "I'm not going to die." He replies to her willpower by clenching his fist and saying, "No, you're not." In this statement, it does indicate that he cares for her as he has a strong desire to protect her. This desire for her safety is also evidenced when he catches her when Alpha-152 proves to be too powerful. He shows anger towards the clone after it throws Leifang. In the events of Dead or Alive 5, Leifang persistently follows Jann Lee, while secretly training with Hitomi to keep her skills sharp enough to beat him. At one point, she almost encounters him, which results in her pursuing him onto a train. A potentially embarrassing and somewhat familiar occurrence following a sudden acute movement of the train is averted quickly thanks to Jann Lee: An older man almost relies on Leifang's breasts to regain balance, but Jann steps in at the last minute (showing his commitment to protecting her). After another sharp movement of the train, Leifang falls on top of Jann lee, resulting in an awkward romantic moment.

Ryu Hayabusa
Jann Lee first encountered Hayabusa in the second Dead or Alive tournament, when Hayabusa warned him as he was a civilian about the dangers of the DOA tournament. Since then, they seemed to have formed something of a friendly rivalry, they do respect each other as masters of their chosen arts. It could be the fact that Jann Lee wants to face strong opponents like Hayabusa. In Dead or Alive 4, Jann Lee demonstrated his mastery in double nunchakus. He threw them to Hayabusa in which he showed complimentary mastery. The two engage a friendly spar with him in the fourth tournament.

Ein/Hayate
During the events of Dead or Alive 2, Ein is his rival and ace. Winning in tag battles, they will celebrate the victory together. During the events of the third tournament, as Hayate and Hitomi are about to have a friendly battle, Hitomi tries to rush to aid Leifang from Jann Lee's attack which sends her flying into the table but Lei Fang tells Hitomi to stay out of her affairs. Jann Lee ignores the girls seeing Hayate and asks him to fight with him as he sees that he is a worthy challenge and it is unknown what happened to the girls then.

Hitomi
Jann Lee first met Hitomi in the third Dead or Alive tournament, which they shared a keenness in martial arts resulting in a friendly rivalry. They met again when he rescued her from being eaten by a dinosaur in the fourth tournament. Another rival of Jann Lee for which he has returned respect. Upon meeting, the two agreed that real power comes from within, showing how easily they get along. However, when he saved Hitomi from being eaten by a T-rex, she didn't fully agree with how he went about doing it. They both met at the finals of the 5th Dead or Alive tournament, in which Jann Lee won.

Rig
Jann Lee holds a grudge towards Rig. Jann Lee was kicking Brad Wong out of the Bar while insulting him at the same time. Rig broke it up and Jann Lee challenged him since he looked like a "real fighter." They got into a fight, which Rig won, embarrassing Jann Lee. After Lee won the 5th Dead or Alive Tournament, he disappeared before being crowned and went to the bar, thinking that he wouldn't be a true champion until he took Rig down.

Leon
During Dead or Alive 3, they challenge each other’s strength. Jann Lee considers him a worthy challenge. As a tag alliance, they share one team-up instigated by Jann Lee and finished by Leon.

Zack
It is implied Zack was amongst his first rivals during the original Dead or Alive tournament in which he defeated. Jann Lee seems to show a lack of concern for Zack and thinks he does not take his training seriously. During the events of the second tournament, Jann Lee wins a victory over him saying, "You haven't progress at all!" During the events of Dead or Alive 5, while training in a forest in South America, Jann Lee is approached by Zack, who gives him an invitation to Dead or Alive 5. Jann Lee accepts the invite, but he challenges Zack to fight. As implied, Zack loses to Jann Lee once more.

Kinks: Kink-list is here. Note: This is the mun’s k-list; Jann Lee’s kinks are interpreted via his character.

[IC]
Hugging this character: Jann Lee is not a physically social person so attempts at hugging him will get a stone-faced glare. If that doesn’t get him out of it, expect to be stiff-armed pushed away. He will strike back if your character continues to bother him. Note: if your character has really close CR with him, hugs can work.
Kissing this character: Same as above, Jann Lee doesn’t like people getting in his space. Trying to kiss him or stealing one is asking for a punch to the jaw or worse. At best, he’ll just glare at you or lean back in surprise. Note: again, if your character has close CR with him or it’s something hot and sexual, kissing can happen.
Fighting with this character: Anytime, anywhere, so long as he judges you a worthy opponent (sometimes even if he doesn’t).
