Inferno is Soul Edge's spirit given physical form, corrupting those exposed to its dark power into the monstrous Malfested, and devouring the souls of those slain by the cursed sword. Inferno is sadistic and cruel, and delights in the suffering of others. It wants nothing more than to wreak destruction upon the mortal realm. Its ultimate goal is to reclaim the scattered shards of Soul Edge and destroy its nemesis, the spirit sword Soul Calibur. |
