Khan

Khan (カーン) is a minor character featured in Part III: Stardust Crusaders. He is a barber and one of the few who is possessed by Anubis.

Appearance/Personality
For a barber Khan possesses a rather imposing stature. He has very broad shoulders and a muscular build. He has brown skin, black hair and bold lips, all typical features of real world Egyptians. He is only seen wearing his barber uniform, which consists of a simple light blue tunic and a small hat that covers the crown of his head.

Not much is known about his personality, aside from being very curious and possibly having an appreciation for blades. When Polnareff tells him to put the Anubis Sword someplace safe for the duration of his visit, he unsheathes it out of curiousity because he believes it to be very beautiful and well crafted.

Stardust Crusaders
Khan is a barber who receives a visit from Jean Pierre Polnareff to shave, but is asked to put Anubis nearby before starting his work. Thinking it to be a normal sword, Khan draws it and is possessed by the stand, attacking Polnareff soon after. Because Anubis already had experience fighting Polnareff (in the earlier battle with Chaka), he was able to counter almost all of his attacks. Polnareff was saved by Jotaro Kujo, who easily overcame the possessed barber and broke the Anubis Sword in half. Khan himself was rendered unconcious.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future
Khan is the final Anubis character (the others being Chaka and Anubis Polnareff) in Heritage for the Future. He is secret character, and can only be unlocked by completing Challenge Mode with Anubis Polnareff.

Khan is introduced in the Story Mode exactly as he is in the manga; when Polnareff visits a barber on his way to the police station, Khan becomes possessed by accidently drawing the sword from its sheath.

He is not fought in the storyline of any of the main characters, but he retains his own short storyline. In his own story, Khan is able to kill all of the protagonists, and decides to stay faithful to Dio afterwards because he fears the power of The World. This differs greatly from Chaka's ending, where the Anubis Sword compells the farmer to betray Dio.

Strategy
One of Khan's biggest differences from Chaka is his inability to sheath Anubis, which reduces his moveset considerably. His attacks involve holding the joystick in the opposite direction (facing away from your opponent) and then pressing forward and an attack key. This will make him dash forward at high speed and attack his opponent, the type of attack depending on what button was pressed.

Like Chaka and Polnareff, he possesses the ability to deflect and learn his opponent's moves by countering with the Anubis Sword.

Khan's super moves allow him to perform a powerful uppercutting slash at close range that severely damages the opponent and sends them flying, and a berzerk barrage of sword slashes that ends in an uppercut.

In summary, Khan is more or less a weaker version of Chaka, so he greatly relies upon chaining combos together in order to do damage. Unfortunately he lacks the simple but elegant basic combos Chaka possesses, and his dashing special attack is awkward to execute at close range. This means players will have to become creative on how to connect his super moves and overcome more powerful opponents.

Trivia

 * Khan is one of the few special characters that does not turn into his child form when hit with Alessi's stand in Heritage for the Future, turning instead to the cow that was stabbed by Anubis.
