In fact, I forgot he even existed until I was thinking about the roster earlier today. So, what so forgettable about him? His designs are basic. But, he is anything but simple. A combination Shaolin monk style martial artist mixed with romanticized and highly stylized Chinese sword play leaves us one of the greatest all rounders in the entire roster. He is the middle man. Reach, speed, flourish, technical depth, and simple chunk damage vs combos. There isn't a single place he comes up short in. And, despite the old adage a jack of all trades is a master of none. He is more than capable of meeting any of the specialists in their preferred domains. Later games would see similarly named men replace him or have him come back with an interesting HP/Magic system in SC6. Which, I unfortunately haven't had much of a chance to play around with yet. But, he is probably the best example how there is no weak link in the Soul Calubur lineup.
