Freeman (フリーマン) is a demented serial killer that seeks to fight and kill strong opponents. His face is always covered, whether with his mask seen before the match, or his long orange hair.
Wandering the streets of Second Southtown, Freeman is a serial killer who has become famous for his ferocity and apparent lack of motivation. He is responsible for the death of Kevin Rian's unnamed partner, earning him some kind of hate from him and also Marky, the orphaned son of Kevins' partner and the child who is always in the background when Rian fights. He also fought and defeated an aged Kim Kaphwan, which caused Kim's sons to search for Freeman. After entering the King of Fighters: Maximum Mayhem tournament arranged by Kain R. Heinlein, he was spotted on top of a cathedral by the police and shot by a sniper, apparently for his numerous murders of police officers. Even though he fell into the water wounded, his body was never found (thus implying that he escaped). His whereabouts and status are both unknown.
For Freeman's pre-fight intro, he appears wearing an outfit similar to that of Halloween antagonist Michael Myers, complete with a distinctive white mask. He will do a formal bow, and the outfit and mask will come off, sliced to ribbons, falling to the ground.
