General History:
Pre-Street Fighter
Ryu was an orphaned child, with no knowledge of who his parents were or if they are still alive. When Ryu was a young child, he was adopted by a man named Gouken and began living with him as well as learning the mysterious and dangerous martial art known as Nin-Anasatsuken. Gouken would later get the bratty son of his best friend, Ken Masters, not only as a sparring partner for Ryu, but to also give Ryu some company since Gouken was the only person Ryu had seen in a long time due to the seclusion of Gouken's dojo. Ryu looked up to Gouken as a father figure during his early years and Ken as a best friend and surrogate brother, which is how their relationship remains to this day. When Ryu was about 23 years old, Gouken thought that Ryu was ready to travel the world in order to test his skills against the best fighters in the world. With this, Ryu left Gouken and Ken, and headed to fight in the first World Warrior tournament.
Street Fighter
In Street Fighter, Ryu is one of the participants of the World Warrior tournament. After defeating all challengers, his skills earn him the right to fight its host, Sagat. Despite nearly losing against the "Emperor of Muay Thai," Ryu secures a difficult victory, and is crowned champion.
Later games elaborate on the final battle between Ryu and Sagat. In this version of the battle, Sagat nearly beats Ryu into unconsciousness. So sure is he that he had won the fight that he offers the reeling Ryu a hand to his feet. Ryu, however, having such a strong desire to win, allows himself to be engulfed by the Satasui no Hadou and he strikes Sagatwith a nearly-fatal Metsu Shoryuken that it not only knocks Sagat unconscious but also marks his chest with a great scar. After regaining consciousness and discovering what had happened, Sagat swears vengeance on Ryu.
Street Fighter Alpha
In the Street Fighter Alpha series, Ryu leaves Sagat behind and returns to his home only to find that Gouken, his master and adoptive father, has been murdered. Learning that Akuma had fought and killed his adopted father, Ryu began to travel the world to find this man.
He encounters and fights Akuma on a secluded island known as Gokuentou, but Akuma was only testing him. He senses that Ryu has the same powers as he does, and tells Ryu about the Satasui no Hadou - a power that consumes the practitioners of their shared fighting style, driving them to win even when it means killing the opponent. Ryu refuses to unleash this power within, and Akuma uses his fist to smash the island, leaving Ryu stranded.
Sometime after escaping the island, Ryu battles Ken and loses. Ken realizes Ryu is not himself and has been deeply troubled since his last victory over Sagat. He gives him his red hairband as a reminder to stay focused, which Ryu was sincerely grateful for. Soon thereafter, a fan of his, named Sakura, comes up and expresses her desire to train under him. Ryu replies that he himself still has much to learn, but allows Sakura to take a picture of him. She swears to make him accept her eventually.
Ryu continues to be troubled by what Akuma had told him, compounded by his encounter with Rose, who has intricate ties to M. Bison. She tells him that he cannot defeat Bison unless he fights him at the cost of his soul. True to form, when Ryu confronts Bison, he is defeated despite putting up a valiant fight. Bison takes the semi-conscious Ryu and begins brainwashing him, using the revelation that the Satasui no Hadou - the dark power Ryu struggles to avoid using - is akin to Bison's own Psycho Power.
This scene is interrupted by the entrance of Sagat, Ken, and Sakura, each of them having followed Ryu for their own reasons. While Ken and Sakura distract Bison, Sagat challenges the brainwashed Ryu (different versions of this story coexist; in one version, Sagat is offered this battle as an enticement to stay with Shadoloo, Sagat quickly notices the effects Bison's brainwashing have had on Ryu, and, at Sagat's urging, Ryu comes to his senses and helps Ken and Sakura force Bison to retreat.
Street Fighter II and III
Ryu, as seen in the Super Street Fighter II intro.
During the World Warrior tournament, Ryu enters to test his skills, and easily defeats many of the new warriors, one of them being Dhalsim It is widely believed that he lost to Ken in this tournament as Ken stated he wouldn't marry Eliza until he won a decisive victory over Ryu. Ken marries Eliza after winning the fight.
Years later, Ryu enters the third Street Fighter tournament to further advance his fighting abilities. He defeats Hugo, but with a considerable amount of difficulty. The seemingly unstoppable Hugo puts on a grand fight and even withstands a direct Shin Shoryuken. Ryu loses to Oro, but the hermit was so impressed that he takes an interest in Ryu and begins to train the warrior. During the events of "Third Strike", Ryu and Ken have another sparring match and Ryu comes out as the victor. Ryu was then challenged by Alex who won the SF3 tournament. Ryu won and said that he would want to fight him again.

ABILITIES
Hero Ability - Shin-Ryu-Mukai: Ryu's ultimate fighting style. This basically manifests as a Level 3 Martial Arts (Use any body part as a weapon w/ +5 weapon damage & Accuracy) prof and a Level 2 Fist prof (Use gloves, claws, ect w/ +4 Accuracy).
--Satsui no Hadou (Surge of Intent to Murder): When Ryu is below 25% of his max health, he can choose to switch styles to this one. Doing so gives him a noticably dark alignment, dealing 1% of his max HP and MP in damage every Act he spends, but changing all of his specials into dark, pumped up versions of themselves. These altered moves are indicated by a star (*). If Ryu is killed by this damage, he will lose his humanity... So be careful with it.
*Level 3 Deadly Martial Arts Prof - SPwr Bonus added to normal, weaponless attacks as Dark damage. +3 Weapon Damage and Accuracy
*Level 2 Deadly Fist Prof - Crit chance doubled with normal attacks. Fist weapons have +3 Accuracy
Ryu's Special Punch: Jaw droppingly powerful combo attack with more hits than I care to count. Demands that Ryu be at full Act and have at least 80% of his HP and MP. A single attack roll is made at half Accuracy and Power, and if it hits, Ryu deals a number of attacks equal to twice his max Act +2, which have ONLY weapon damage behind them. This attack instantly Exhausts Ryu whether he hits or not, and Flow has no effect on it. If the target dodges the first hit, or has suitable No Flinch, they can use an Act to avoid the entire attack, or make dodge rolls against each instance of weapon damage, all of which will be at half Acc for Ryu.
*Shun Goku Satsu (Instant Hell Murder, "The Raging Demon): Same as above, only every attack has SPwr Bonus as DARK damage behind it, and after all hits are finished, Ryu can continue attacking with additional weapon-only punches until the target successfully Dodges.
Hadoken/SUPER Hadoken: +4 LIGHT damage, 6 MP. By charging the attack for three turns and increasing the MP cost by 6, the Spell Damage -only- can be made to repeat once a turn for as long as Ryu stands still, at a cost of 2 MP per turn. Anyone who wanders into the beam is susceptible to this.
*Dark Hadoken/Dark Super Hadoken: +8 DARK damage, 6 MP and can be charged into a Super version with the same effect as above, only it costs 2 MP and 1 HP per turn to maintain and is an AoE1 beam.
Tatsumaki Senpuu Kyaku - Must be Charged to use. For every Turn spent charging, to a maximum of 4, Ryu will continue to spin and kick. Anyone close to Ryu will be struck at full power of a standard kick once per turn until either they move or Ryu stops. This is otherwise the same as a normal kick.
*Dark Tatsumaki Senpuu Kyaku - Same as the normal, but SPwr Bonus of DARK damage is added to each kick, and it strikes twice per turn instead of just once.
