Creation and Design
In contrast to other Tekken 6 debuting characters that were based on fans' suggestion, both Lars and Alisa were created with a different approach. Lars was developed to be a character that veteran Tekken gamers would find new. Additionally, his motions and moves were made so that players could develop various strategies at the time of using him. The storyline from Tekken 6 was also made to focus on Lars' mysterious identity and intentions of an encounter against Jin Kazama. Katsuhiro Harada stated that Lars' techniques were made so that they could easily overpower his opponents as well as to counterattack them when the player is facing a difficulty using him. As with several Tekken 6 characters, Lars was given an alternate outifit designed by a manga artist. His outfit was designed by Masashi Kishimoto, author of Naruto.

Famous quotes containing the words creation and/or design:
“Without culture, and the relative freedom it implies, society, even when perfect, is but a jungle. This is why any authentic creation is a gift to the future.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“With wonderful art he grinds into paint for his picture all his moods and experiences, so that all his forces may be brought to the encounter. Apparently writing without a particular design or responsibility, setting down his soliloquies from time to time, taking advantage of all his humors, when at length the hour comes to declare himself, he puts down in plain English, without quotation marks, what he, Thomas Carlyle, is ready to defend in the face of the world.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
