Goenitz (ゲーニッツ) is a video game character who made his first appearance in The King of Fighters '96 as the last boss. He is one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Orochi, with the power to command wind.

Story (in the KOF Orochi Saga)[edit]

Goenitz is one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Orochi, with the power to command wind.

Despite being an evil villain, Goenitz has a very polite personality. His occupation as a pastor may have to do with his respectful attitude. He has mannerisms that do show this and are seen through his spoken quotes; namely, his introduction, 2nd win pose, and 3rd win pose, wherein he says in Japanese, "Pray to your God quickly!", "Repent while you still can." and "May God bless you!", respectively.

Even though influenced by Orochi, he sports a "messiah" attitude that aspires to "save" people, expected from people of religious occupations. His specialty, however, with the powers of Orochi, is to dispose of people; disbelievers in particular.
