He has no story nor ending, and only used Siegfried's Soul Edge without effects. This early version was much different from the former Nightmare, having crimson armor and a more flesh-like design, almost as if he were part of Soul Edge itself. 'Siegfried!' was an alternate version of normal Siegfried taken from his no-input ending, where he was consumed by the cursed sword Soul Edge. In the home version, an extra character named 'Siegfried!' was added as an unlockable character. His fighting style was altered from Soulcalibur II to Soulcalibur III after Siegfried became a separate character.Įven though Nightmare originally debuted in Soulcalibur, its predecessor, Soul Edge, featured a prototype of his character. Nightmare has appeared in all the sequels to Soulcalibur with visual differences between each game. Nightmare has served as a recurring antagonist in contrast to the protagonist role played by Siegfried, as well as serving as Siegfried's archenemy until Soulcalibur V.

Ever since then, Nightmare has been a major antagonist, with his ownership of Soul Edge making him the objective of many other characters in the story. In the sequel Soulcalibur, he was given a name and featured as a central character. Nightmare first appeared in one of the possible endings for the Siegfried character in the game Soul Edge. The evil possessor of Siegfried Schtauffen ( ジークフリート・シュタウフェン, Jīkufurīto Shutaufen)'s body, he later becomes an entity entirely separated from Siegfried in Soulcalibur III onward and Nightmare is the living incarnation of Soul Edge and a vessel for Inferno. Nightmare ( ナイトメア, Naitomea) is a fictional character in the Soulcalibur series of video games.
