Terrance (Terry) Silver

After being captured in Vietnam during the war and seeing his fellow soldier Ponytail be killed by the Vietnamese, Terry was frightened and traumatized. This also had a negative effect on his personality. When Kreese rescues him, Terry promises that he owes him for the rest of his life, and the two would then go on to be close friends. He kept his word and in the 1980s, Kreese came to ask him for help and Terry obliged. He had become wealthy through unethical toxic waste dumps, and had the means to help Kreese. He concocted a vicious plan to harm and destroy Daniel LaRusso and Mr. Miyagi in every possible way. He pretended to befriend Daniel and won his trust, only to take amusement and glee in the pain Daniel felt as the training continued. He took even more sadistic pleasure when he revealed his true motives to Daniel and had Mike severely assault Daniel. He made it clear that Daniel losing the tournament alone wasn't enough, and that he needed to suffer as much as possible. At the All Valley Tournament, he made Daniel suffer by having Mike commit aggressive and illegal strikes, in order to prolong the fight, and Silver even evilly told him when the real pain would begin at one point. He has little morality and will do anything to win. He is cunning, manipulative, and excellent at manipulating everyone's view of himself. He is calculating in his actions, choosing to play a mental manipulation as opposed to a physical assault. He knows how to sweet talk his way into earning people's trust. His actions can be seen as far worse than the other villains Daniel has encountered, as they make their actions up front, while Terry hides his true nature until it is time for him to reveal himself. Terry's actions after military service and in his revenge scheme, prove he's a psychopath, and one of the most manipulative and corrupt villain's to cross Daniel's path. However, his desire to repay Kreese for all the time he saved him in Vietnam, is one positive thing about him at the time. Losing the All Valley Tournament and the subsequent disappearance of Kreese, leads to him hitting rock bottom. However, after going to therapy, he slowly rebuilds his life, and puts his past behind him. However, despite going to therapy, Silver never gave up the one thing that he craved for, which was power and money. Over 3 decades later, when he is approached by Kreese about them working together to win the 2019 All Valley Tournament, Silver initially rejects his offer because of his new life he has been living. However, due to his desire for power and money, as well as remembering his glory days with Kreese, he succumbs to Kreese's words, which leads to him returning to Cobra Kai to help Kreese. His time back at Cobra Kai causes Silver to become worse and more unhinged than he was in the '80s. Unfortunately, his loyalty and friendship to Kreese would begin to waver when Silver grows tired of Kreese constantly bringing up memories from Vietnam, as he then believes that Kreese is questioning his loyalty. To prove his loyalty, he lures Johnny Lawrence to an attack and brutally beats him up. However, when Kreese decides to show mercy to Johnny and orders Silver to stand down, Silver's way of thinking is shaken. He spirals into an emotional pitfall, questioning everything he's ever done and his loyalty to Kreese, and begins to believe he is a pawn of Kreese, who in his mind, didn't really intend for them to team up for the glory days. He takes his emotional rage out on Stingray, and when the man is badly beaten, he strikes a deal - if Raymond lies that John Kreese did the attacking, Silver will let him back into Cobra Kai. When Raymond agrees, Silver delivers a final blow that puts the man in a coma. His utter disregard for a human life to benefit himself and his end goal is who Silver is at his core. The rage and physical violence is a defense to guard the the broken, raw, PTSD-ridden man hidden within. To ensure Cobra Kai's victory at the All Valley, he bribes the referee to help Cobra Kai win, showing how he'll willingly win by cheating. His betrayal to Kreese is defined by Silver as "cutting out his weakness" and entering a new mindset. As the sole sensei of Cobra Kai, he works to ensure that Cobra Kai is the leading dojo in the world. He continues to be deceptive and play mental manipulation to accomplish his goals. He is one step ahead of nearly everyone, as he catches wind of anyone, particularly Daniel, trying to ruin his plans, which leads to him messing with Daniel's life. He manipulates Daniel into attacking him during the auction, which strains Daniel's marriage with Amanda. He burns down Barnes' furniture store when he learns Daniel was working with him to take Silver down, which is another example of how ruthless he is. Similar to Chozen when was defeated by Daniel over 3 decades earlier, he tells Chozen to finish him off after being seemingly defeated in their fight. However, he is still a dirty fighter, as when Chozen is momentarily distracted after seemingly winning their fight, Silver exploits that weakness to win the fight. When his cheating is eventually exposed, he tries to defend his actions, but it is too late. He still refuses to give up and even fights Daniel, only for him to lose and be arrested, ultimately ruining his plans yet again.
