Trained and perfected since he was a child, Jago was never concerned with material achievements or power, only to develop spiritually and reach perfection in that regard. Abandoned at a young age in a Himalayan monastery where he was trained by the Tiger Monks, he searches for purpose in his enhancements, until finally it seems to arrive: guided by the spirit of the tiger, Jago makes his way towards the Killer Instinct tournament with the objective of destroying the evil that lurks there, according to his spiritual guide. On this journey, he meets other fighters, with different goals, and he will realize that he will need their help if he wants to stop the plans of the megacorporation known as Ultratech.
