Origins: Tora has no memory of his past. Sagat has taken him under his wing. Sagat told Tora that he was injured in a fight they had together. Tora apparently challenged Sagat to fight he did not want. When Tora woke up Sagat took him on as a disciple. He said “If and when you gain your memory, I want to be a warrior capable of defeating me.” That was two years ago. He still can't recall who he was prior to his memory loss. Tora no longer wants to know who he was before. He's noticed the surprise in Sagat's face at how well he's progressed as fighter. If he can progress so far, in such a short frame of time, it must mean the man he was before was lacking. Tora no longer wants to be that man.

Reasons to be in SFV:*

Tora simply wants to test his progress under Sagat's tutelage. Although he fears he may learn his true identity. He joins Sagat in the World's Martial Arts tournament. His goal being to beat all of his opponents and face his master, Sagat, in the championship match. Only then will he get a true gauge of how far his come in the past two years. This desire to see how strong he truly has become, overrides his fear of finding out who he was.
