Since his debut, Hiryuu (飛竜 "Hiryuu" usually interpreted to mean "Flying Dragon") has appeared in various video games produced by Capcom. In most versions of the Strider story, Hiryuu is an elite-class member of a group of futuristic, high-tech [[ninja]] known as the "Striders", who specialize in various kinds of wetworks such as espionage, sabotage, and assassinations. Hiryuu is the youngest Strider ever to earn an "A" class rank, what makes him a formidable warrior in any type of battle. His signature weapon is the "Cypher", a [[plasma sword]] with a [[tonfa]]-like handle able to cut through anything. h4.
