Samchay Sitipitak

Samchay Sitipitak (蓄積 • シティペット, Chikuseki Shitipetto or สามชัยสิทธิพิทักษ์ in Thai) is a character in Mobile Fighter G Gundam Ryuki. He is a champion in Muay Thai kickboxing, being chosen by Neo Thailand's current King to represent his nation in the Neo Gundam Fight.

Personality
Though he is serious minded, Samchay's pride in his country cannot be denied, and neither can his desire to be able to have an honorable battle. He develops his training through hard work constantly, to ensure he is in top form, both physically and mentally. However, he has no mental awareness to prepare for some situations.

Skills & Capabilities
Samchay's mastery of Muay Thai is top notch, with his specialty being close quarters combat. He uses masterful punches, kicks, knee and elbow strikes to make the most of his fighting style's preferences, and he also is equally capable of good grappling. Due to the Lumpini Gundam's lack of long range weaponry, Samchay has to utilize special attacks he has developed from his years of training in Muay Thai to fight at long range. Many of his attacks are named for various predators, hence his nickname of "The Predator".

History
Born into poverty in Bangkok, Samchay had been taken into a Muay Thai school at the age of 6, training day in and day out to find a way to make a name for himself, and to escape the destitution he lived in. As he fought and trained, he grew to be acknowledged by his teacher, to where he was allowed to enter a Muay Thai tournament at 16, winning the tournament, and seeing how he found himself in battle.

As he kept fighting, Samchay quickly became known as a legend in the Muay Thai circuit, being able to even defeat bigger, stronger opponents before he became recognized by the King of Neo Thailand as its greatest Muay Thai fighter. For Samchay, the honor of this as well as the thrill he felt in battle made him want to seek even higher summits, so he continued his hard training to retain this state he was in.

When time came for Neo Thailand to select its Gundam Fighter for the Neo Gundam Fight, the current King had no problem with choosing the veteran Samchay to represent his country, since he was still a remarkable fighter, and that his skills would bring honor to Neo Thailand. Accepting this honor once more, Samchay is excited to enter the Neo Gundam Fight, to bring glory to his home, and to stand at the summit of all fighters from all sorts of styles.
