Twelve is a video game character from the Street Fighter fighting game series. Twelve is a mutant, part of the G-Project, a biological warfare operation run by a mysterious organization under the control of Gill.
Twelve appears in Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike and otherwise has few cameo appearances or related merchandise, which is unusual for a Street Fighter character. He does appear in the card game Epic Battles, most notably his character card and cards representing his X.N.D.L. and X.C.O.P.Y Super Arts. In addition, Twelve and his attacks make an appearance as cards in the Universal Fighting System card game. He also appears in SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters Clash.

[edit] Story
With Necro being his prototype, Twelve is genetically engineered to regenerate, form other shapes (usually weapons) out of his body, copy a person's appearance and skill, and is meant to be incapable of being damaged. The "G-Project", the secret project that resulted in Twelve's birth, was executed by Dr. Kure, and overseen by Gill's brother, Urien. Twelve is ordered to retrieve Necro and Effie after the latter freed and helped Necro escape from Gill's organization. Twelve is also being mass produced by the organization to create an army of Twelve-like creatures. Twelve considers Urien to be his father because of his involvement with his creation.
[edit] Appearance
Twelve is a milky-white being with no form of skin or tissue. He has very thin eyes resting on his oddly-shaped head. He wears no form of clothing and is humanoid in body shape but, as his story says, can change his physical shape as the situation demands as well as mimic another person.
[edit] Gameplay
Twelve has a very unusual fighting style. He is the only character with an airdash, which can alter the arcs of his jumps, he can also "crawl" on the floor, evading many ranged attacks like the Hadouken without having to block or parry. Twelve can also render himself invisible for a short time using his personal action.

[edit] Communication
Aside from copying his opponents' quips and uttering "target" and "complete", Twelve is only capable of expressing himself in a binary code cypher (00001 = A, 00010 = B, etc). His victory speeches are:
- 01011.01111 = "KO"
- 01011.01001.01100.01100 = "Kill"
- 10000.00001.01001.01110 = "Pain"
- 00101.01101.00001.01111 = "EMAO"
- 00100.00101.00001.10100.01000 = "Death"
- 00101.11010.01010.01111.00010 = "EZ Job"
- 00110.01001.01110.01001.10011.01000 = "Finish"
- 10100.01000.00101.00101.01110.00100 = "The End"
[edit] Trivia
- In Street Fighter III: Third Strike, there is an error in the spelling of the VS screen before the match; Twelve appears as Tewelve.
- When Necro challenges Twelve, Twelve enters the match in a fashion similar to Juli and Juni in a Dramatic Battle during Street Fighter Alpha 3 (multiple copies of Twelve populate his side of the screen then leaving before the fight between Necro and the actual Twelve begins).
