I just want to say that this game has ended up being absurdly cool. At any rate, I think that you’ll understand what I mean when you see his. to the point of being too particular, even. From a producer’s point of view we have held this game to absurdly high standards in developing the specials, the Critical Edge, etc. And of course there’s his weapon the Soul Edge I hope that all of you out there are getting excited to see how he’ll play and what his moves will be like this time around. He’s an incredibly important character for the series. Soulcalibur features “light” and “dark” elements and unsurprisingly Nightmare is a character who symbolizes the “dark” element.

This introduction was purpose by Skeiider Inferno emerged and dragged Kilik and Xianghua into Astral Chaos, but was defeated using Soul Calibur freeing Siegfried from the cursed sword’s control. Nightmare attempted to force Kilik to succumb to his Malfestation, but Kilik managed to defeat Nightmare and shatter his armor. While Maxi faced Astaroth, Nightmare was confronted by Kilik – who had been Malfested by the Evil Seed but resisted Soul Edge’s control and Xianghua, who was unknowingly the wielder of Soul Calibur – Soul Edge’s opposite. In 1586, Ostrheinsburg was attacked by the Aval Organization, but this played into Nightmare’s hands as he killed them all and claimed their souls.Īs Nightmare’s power reached its zenith, Ostrheinsburg was attacked by a trio of warriors – Kilik, Xianghua, and Maxi. Accruing an army of Malfested – beings mutated by Soul Edge’s evil energy – and other monsters, by 1585 Nightmare had assembled a team of lieutenants called the “Covenant Shield” – Ivy Valentine, Astaroth, and the Lizardman Chief – and bestowed titles upon them. Nightmare eventually claimed the city of Ostrheinsburg as his dominion and began attacking surrounding kingdoms such as Wolfkrone. As Nightmare’s reputation increased, a feudal lord attempted to hire him as a mercenary to help overthrow the tyrannical ruler, but Nightmare killed him. Enslaved to Soul Edge’s will, which impersonated his deceased father in order to manipulate him, Siegfried embarked on a campaign of slaughter that earned him the moniker Nightmare, the latest incarnation of a legendary monstrous warrior reputed to appear throughout history.Īt some point in 1583, Nightmare fought Grøh and Malfested him. In 1583, Siegfried Schtauffen grasped the hilt of the cursed sword Soul Edge and was transformed into a monstrous knight clad in blue armor, unleashing a blast of evil energy that came to be called the Evil Seed.

This early version was very different from the current Nightmare, having crimson-red armor and a more flesh-like design with no mutated Nightmare Arm. Siegfried! was an alternate version of normal Siegfried taken from his no-input ending, in which he is consumed by Soul Edge. In the home version, an extra character named Siegfried! was added as an unlockable character. Though his incarnation in V wants to take over the world rather than destroy it.Įven though Nightmare originally debuted in Soulcalibur, there was a “prototype” of his character in Soul Edge. He looks down on humans, considering them “pathetic” and “foolish”, having no mercy for others, even to those who serve him, as shown in his Tales of Souls path where he considers killing his loyal servant Tira. Nightmare has been portrayed in the games as a violent and ruthless creature, constantly in search of souls to restore Soul Edge. He is the host, wielder and living incarnation of the cursed sword, Soul Edge, the objective of most other characters in the story. He made his first appearance in Soul Edge, with his proper debut being in Soulcalibur. Nightmare (ナイトメア, Naitomea) is the main antagonist of the Soul series.
