Line 336:
* She's one of the more likely choices, alongside Patroklos and Pyrrha (their [[The Corruption|contaimination]] by Soul Edge could very well be a [[Chekhov's Gun]] in waiting) and Tira (y'know, [[Yandere|the]] [[Perky Female Minion|very]] [[Undying Loyalty|same]] [[Psycho Supporter|girl]] [[The Dragon|who]] ''[[Mad Love|wants]]'' [[Unholy Matrimony|to become one]] [[Cargo Ship|with Soul Edge]]). It could account for the ambiguity of her alleged "death" by the time of the game. (By the way, I'm just replying; I didn't come up with the theory itself.)
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxccVb7hXUw The latest trailer] seems to ''heavily'' support this theory.
** [http://www.fightersgeneration.com/np9/ezio-sc5.jpg The latest build of the character select screen] finally shows Nightmare, next to Tira at the end of the second row (as well as the reveal of Raphael next to Viola and [[Guest Fighter]] [[Assassin's Creed II|Ezio Auditore]] in the top row). Now, look closely at Nightmare. His (her?) eyes look ''very'' feminine. [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20120614021222/http://fightersgeneration.com/screens/sc5-nightmare.htm Recent screenshots,] however, show no feminine touches to Nightmare's armor that would suggest this, though.
** Not to mention that [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNMnZyQLOBA in the official reveal trailer for Ezio,] while the Azure Knight is shown in all of his (her?) glory, ''Nightmare doesn't utter a single word'', despite all of the other characters in the trailer having had their voices heard at least once (whether it be trailers or gameplay videos). Either this is the greatest [[Red Herring]] in series' history, or the dev team is ''very'' terrible at keeping a secret.
*** Most likely jossed in that Nightmare's voice has been heard more recently, and he ''definitely'' sounds like a guy.

== Patroklos is malfested and the ''antagonist'' of the story ==
So far [https://web.archive.org/web/20120124194311/http://www.dualshockers.com/2011/12/06/new-soulcalibur-v-screenshots-revealed/ what we've seen] of story mode has shown a bit claiming Pat "Destroyed any that ''looked'' like malfested" (alongside a pair of story bits of him with an evil expression claiming "to bad there's no way to prove it" and people running in terror), that he works with the guy we know to be Nightmare's alias. Pat '''is''' the main character of the story, only in the way Nightmare was in 2.
* {{spoiler|[[Jossed]], although he's kind of a dick, is misled by Graf Dumas/Nightmare into slaughtering innocent humans, and is nearly turned into a [[Knight Templar]] for Soul Calibur. He gets better by the end, though.}}
* Oddly enough, Yoshimitsu's taunt has him calling Patrokolos an "evildoer," while he does have a second taunt for those not considered "evil." More than likely hinting at some cut story elements, though.
