A generic
assassin unlockable only in North American and European console ports of SoulCalibur
II. He is only selectable in Practice mode, Team Battle, and Versus (along
with the extra variants of these modes). Like Berserker,
Assassin has a total of six selectable costumes in SoulCalibur II. He uses
an updated version of Hwang Sung Syung's fighting
style, wielding the Chinese Blade called "Assassin Blade".
Not
much is known about the mysterious Assassin from SoulCalibur II. His
design is meant to represent a group of assassins of unknown origin. In SoulCalibur
III's storyline, the Assassin in the Shrine of Kunpaetku suggest that
the Assassins are agents of Fygul Cestemus in search of Soul Edge's
fragments.
