Soul Series/Characters/Soul Calibur III: Difference between revisions

Weapon(s) - Scythe

 

 

Zasalamel was originally a member of an ancient tribe: a sect of Algol's cult that guarded Soul Calibur. He was eventually exiled, however, when he went against the cult's strict orders to never use the spirit sword in times of war. Some time afterward, he discovered the secret of immortality, and through the use of arcane magic gained the ability to reincarnate himself. It seemed awesome at the time, but a few centuries of constant resurrection and death took its toll and he fell into depression, losing the joy of living as every death he suffered became more painful over the years. Believing his immortality to be a curse, Zasalamel decided to use the energies of Soul Edge and Soul Calibur so that he could finally die forever.

Weapon(s) - Ring blade

 

 

A young girl who uses a ring blade and looks like she wandered off from the [[Cirque Du Soleil]]. Tira is a former assassin who once worked for an organization called the Bird of Passage. When the Evil Seed shone down on the leaders, the group disbanded. Tira had become addicted to killing during her time in the group, however, and couldn't live a normal life. When she heard about Nightmare, she empathized with him because he was a similar being to herself, and she became his servant. [[Kick the Dog|She then went after Sophitia's children]].

** [[Justified Trope|Justified]] as [[Word of God]] states that the story mode was supposed to be [[What Could Have Been|four times larger and deal with all the characters]], but they didn't have the time or man-power to make it happen.

* [[Large Ham]]: Most notably in her gleeful mood, but her gloomy mood has its moments.

* [[Mad Love]], [[Psycho Supporter]], [[Undying Loyalty]]: [[Cargo Ship|Towards Nightmare/Soul Edge.]] But ''not'' the second Nightmare, who she views as an in-universe [[Replacement Scrappy]].

* [[Manipulative Bastard|Manipulative Bitch]]

Weapon(s) - Shikomi-zue concealed in an oilpaper parasol

 

 

A [[But Not Too Foreign|European-Japanese]] woman who wields an [[Badass|Iai sword hidden in an umbrella]]. She seeks [[Revenge]] against Mitsurugi for killing her master, [[Mentor Ship|the only man she ever loved]]. In ''IV'' she gets self-doubts about her mastery of the sword, and retrains in order to reach [[Rurouni Kenshin|Himura-esque]] speed.

Weapon(s) - Rapier

 

 

Raphael's adopted daughter. She was orphaned at a young age, and had become distant from the world. She saves Raphael from the authorities, and starts to open up her heart again to the world.

Weapon(s) - All weapons

 

 

A warrior from an ancient time when the soul swords were in their infancy, who mocked the gods and got in exchange an owl-headed curse. Trapped in a time-still labyrinth for many years, the Evil Seed finally released it in the 16th Century. After getting used to the new era, he sets out to fight the power that released him.

Weapon(s) - Scythe

 

 

Zasalamel's [[One-Winged Angel|ultimate form]] after being affected by the energies of the [[Cosmic Horror|abyss]] he used for his plans. In ''Soulcalibur III'', supposedly he'd morph into this as an after-effect of the ritual he performed to merge with the energies of both swords. ''Soulcalibur IV'' [[Retcon|retconned]] this, and instead Zasalamel cut short the ritual after feeling his body starting to be transformed.

Weapon(s) - (Miser) Katana and shuriken, (Greed) Dual kunai

 

 

An old man that looks like a bum and a Japanese-looking girl. Two random assassins and rivals of Yoshimitsu. They get trashed by Mitsurugi in ''IV''.

Weapon(s) - Grieve edge (Valeria), Extendable staff (Hualin), Tambourines (Lynette)

 

 

Otherwise referred to as ''The Shop Girls'' by the fans. One lost her father to Soul Edge, the second got hired after noting her talents and the third seeks her life's calling... though they are more remembered by their role as the ones attending the in-game store... and their [[Jiggle Physics|ludicrous amount of jiggling]] (especially Valeria... oh boy).
