nihongo|Thunder Hawk|サンダー・ホーク|Sandā Hōku, commonly known as T. Hawk, is a video game character from the fighting game series "Street Fighter". He is a tall Native American warrior from Mexico. M. Bison and Shadaloo took over his homeland, forcing him into exile. He uses grappling techniques.

Appearances

T. Hawk debuted in "Super Street Fighter II" (vgy|1993) as one of the four new characters added to the original twelve character roster from the previous "Street Fighter II" games. According to his backstory, he is a member of a Thunderfoot clan whose homeland was taken over by M. Bison's organization Shadaloo thirty years prior to the events of the World Warrior tournament. His father, Arroyo Hawk, was also murdered by Bison. According to Noritaka Funamizu and Akira Nishitani, T. Hawk was originally named "Geronimo" during the development of "Super Street Fighter II", but the name was changed before release after it was suggested by an American staff member that the name Geronimo might be seen as racially offensive.

The character reappears in the home versions of "Street Fighter Alpha 3" (vgy|1998). In his storyline in "Alpha 3", Hawk leaves his home village following the disappearances of some of the locals. He encounters Juli, one of Bison's bodyguards, as his last opponent before fighting Bison. Juli is revealed to be a girl from his tribe named Julia, who was captured and brainwashed into becoming one of Bison's assassins.
