**From the Manual**

Here is some background information for those players who want to know more on the Ranma story,


Ranma Saotome, is a 16-year-old boy. martial artist with a pony-tail, Trained by his father, Genma Saotome, from an early age, Ranma has developed martial-art skis far beyond the average person's ability. Understandably. he’s proud of his accompitshments. but sometimes a little too proud for his own good.

Ranma can be disrespectful and insensitive to both his father :
and friends. These flaws along with his pride keep him in constant trouble.

Like father, like son. Genma is a lot like Ranma, a prideful and somewhat selfish martial artist. but old enough to be looking forward to a comfortable retirement.

Recently, Genma took Ranma on a trip to a remote part of China. There they found the fabled “Training Ground of the ” Accursed Springs”, a natural obstacle course with strategically placed bamboo rods to leap and balance upon. Each spring has a different curse. causing anyone who falls in to take the form of the animal or person haunting the spring, whenever he (or she) gets wet with cold water. A warm bath reverses the transformation only until the next splash of cold water. .

Without realizing that the springs were cursed, Genma and Ranma began their training exercises. After knocking his father into one of the springs, Ranma was shocked when a large, angry panda sprang from the water and promptly knocked him into another spring. Imagine Ranma's chagrin when he emerged as a red-haired girl! Still with a ponytail and incredible
martial arts skill, but a girl nonetheless.

Their guide explained to Ranma and Genma what had happened to them. Although Ranma desperately wants to get the curse removed, Genma really enjoys being a giant panda, which consists primarily of loafing around and eating bamboo shoots.

Genma and Ranma eventually returned to Japan to visit the Tendo Martial Arts Schoo! where Genma had previously arranged 4 future marriage between his son and Akane, one of the owner's three daughters.

Needless to soy, both Ranma and Akane resist the arrangement. But they get on with their lives — attending high school, hanging out with their friends: and avoiding their enemies.

The Tendo girls know Ranma’s secret.

Akane. sixteen, is a tomboy who excels at martial arts, beating up any boy who asks her for a date. But she secretly likes Ranma.

Ryoga, Ranma’s primary rival, has a terrible sense of direction. He followed Ranma to the Accursed Springs and fell into one haunted by a little black pig. Akane adopted the pig, unaware that it is Ryoga transformed, She calls the pig PChan.

Shampoo grew up in a Chinese village famed for Its skilled female martial artists; Ranma-chan (Ranma as a gir) and Genmeo spoiled her village’s annuo! martial arts tournament by eating the feast beforehand. Adding injury to insult, Ranma went on to defeat Shampoo in the tournament. Shampoo later traveled to Japan to get revenge on Ranmea-chan, but
met Ranma. instead. falling for him.

Of course. Akane and Shampoo became instant enemies, fighting over Ranma. Shampoo, too, learned Ranma’'s secret, traveled to the:
Accursed Springs, and fell into one haunted by a cat.
Ranma’'s high school principal is an unscrupulous, schemer who spends too much time in Hawaii. He's promised to excuse Ranma from final exams, if he can defeat 8 other students in martiat arts. He's made promises to the other students, foo. But he isn't known for keeping his promises...
