El Jefe

El Jefe was a member of the Paradox Gang who was tasked to steal Rioichi Cooper's Cane in Feudal Japan.

Appearance
El Jefe is an orange Siberian tiger with black stripes and patches of white fur on his chest and inner arms.

He wears a gray jumpsuit with yellow stripes, a brown belt and red straps across his chest.

On his back are a pair of katanas.

He is often seen smoking a cigar, possibly a Cuban.

Personality
El Jefe has a very self-committed attitude and also thinks quite highly of himself, evident in his claims of being able to conquer an entire country with nothing more than three blind mice armed with mere plastic spoons.

He also appears to be somewhat of a narcissist, constructing a colossal statue of himself and comparing its handsome appearance with his own.

In Turning Japanese, Sly describes El Jefe as a ruthless and cunning military commander.

He also notes that his glory has caused El Jefe to develop a level of arrogance and cowardice when faced with an even battle.

This is evident during his battle with Sly, as despite boasts of his superiority over Sly, his constant retreats during the battle say otherwise.

El Jefe also enjoys insulting his enemies, constantly mocking Sly throughout their fight, but El Jefe has a short temper when his enemies mock him, roaring in anger.

El Jefe is shown to have a perverted side, as shown when he slaps Luna's butt when the mewman was disguised as Madame Geisha.

Skills & Abilities
El Jefe is a formidable enemy, easily as fast and agile as Sly himself.

El Jefe has shown to be capable of jumping incredible distances similar to Carmelita and showing advanced skill in parkour.

El Jefe is also physically strong enough to lift Sly and Rioichi in the air with one hand and punch Sly some distance away and cut through a metal crane with his katanas.

He seemed to be able to use the rail slide when running away from Sly in their fight.

However, he comes with some very unique powers, such as being able to manipulate lightning through his katanas during the storm in his boss fight.

He uses the lightning as extensions to his sword and as balls of electricity to block Sly's path.

His other attacks include using friction to create fire with his katanas in the forms of waves and projectiles.

In fact, a fireproof Samurai Armor, which is visible near Rioichi Cooper's section of the Cooper Vault, is required in order to defeat him.
