I will accept your thinly masked concession on the basis that you're a pathetic wanker looking for gooner content but instead is settling on brushing your ego by deliberately lowering your reading comprehension to toddler-levels in an effort to drag an anon in a very low effort bait and you know that by leather being thousands of years old i meant leather making was developed by humans a few thousand years ago and that i didn't imply that leather fucking evolved to grow on trees a few thousand years ago you fucking idiot.

I love Cassandra. Her 1P outfit in every game is based off of a different modern stereotype. SC2 looks kinda like a cheerleader, SC3 is a regular school uniform worn in a messy way, SC4 is sukumizu, SC6 is a bunny girl outfit where her bow acts as bunny ears. There's also unrealized concept art showing her in nurse outifit. Her Soul Edge look (which is limited to 2D art) is the only one that doesn't seem totally out of the time period.

>>
>>12454516
Soul Edge Official Fan Book ~The Chronicle~ says that Sophitia's beliefs are very much an exception among the Greeks in SoulCalibur's universe. The great majority of 16th century Greeks are Orthodox just like in real world history. Ancient Greek temples are crumbling and are being scavenged for building stone. Hephaestus says that she's the only one who can receive the gods' oracle because no one else can hear their voices anymore. This was sort of soft-retconned in SoulCalibur, where it was revealed that Hephaestus did in fact talk to other Greeks and created 24 holy warriors in total (Aeon "Lizardman" Calcos among them), one for each letter of the Greek alphabet.

Cassandra doesn't hear Hephaestus's voice and it's unclear how much she believes in the gods. In Soul Edge Official Fan Book ~The Chronicle~, she seems to be reassured by the prospect of her sister receiving the gods' protection on her journey. When Sophitia comes back she's the only one who believes her about the oracle. However, in SC2 she seems to blame Hephaestus for the misfortune that befell Sophitia and her children and goes to the Shrine of Eurydice to yell at him. It's unclear if she received the gods' blessings as well or if it's just the divine weaponry that she stole from the temple that enhances her fighting abilities. It's also unclear whether she has the same healing powers that Sophitia has.
>>
>>12456127
>Sophitia believes Cassandra
if that's a reference, nice.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassandra
"was a Trojan priestess dedicated to the god Apollo and fated by him to utter true prophecies, but never be believed."
>>
>>12456214
It's actually the opposite. Sophitia told her family about the reason and purpose behind her journey and Cassandra was the only one who believed her. That's what the SC2 website lore text. But they clearly made references to mythical Cassandra earlier in Soul Edge Official Fan Book during Cassandra's meeting with the travelers. After one of them lifted up Cassandra's spirits by saying that Sophitia may have gone on a quest ordained by gods and that gods protect their heroes, Cassandra's newfound hope is described as "seeing the future" where her sister comes back home safe and sound. Curiously enough, that didn't fully come true. Sophitia was wounded and unconscious when Taki brought her back.

It's also a theme in SC6 where old timeline Cassandra tells new timeline Cassandra about the SC5 future where Sophitia dies and her children experience other misfortune. Preventing that future becomes new timeline Cassandra's goal from that point on.

I was like 16 when I first saw Talim, so I was the same age as her, and seeing that image made something in my brain go "Oh? OH...!" Amy also gave me similar feelings, even more so since I was always a big sucker for goths and emos.

Ivy, Taki, Seung-Mina, those are all really good too, but Amy and Talim are more special to me. I'm so glad I'm tall, almost all women are short to me.

I never realized it was the name of the sword. I always thought is was caliber misspelled because japanese but I'm assuming it's a reference to Excalibur. Maybe they thought calbur just meant sword and the Ex in front of it was just to make it sound cool. Because japanese.

The temples aren't in use. Per Soul Edge fan book, the Shrine of Eurydice looks like a pile of ruins when the Spanish adventurers come there together with Cassandra. This happens after Sophitia already received her oracle from Hephaestus and visited the temple before she set out on her journey. In the game itself it's described as having been "restored through her faith." I can think of two possible explanations. One is that nothing ever changes physically about the temple and it only appears as a beautiful and complete building to holy warriors. The other is that the temple was physically restored, but Siegfried came there, fought Sophitia, and turned it into a pile of rubble again. This is what it looks like when Siegfried fights Sophitia in his Edge Master Mode, but it's uncertain whether that encounter is canon. Siegfried cuts through some pillars to search inside them and finds Atlas Sword. The description that one of the Spanish adventurers provides mentions pillars cut by human(s) (as opposed to gods). I think that later games likely retcon whatever explanation is true. The Shrine of Eurydice always looks immaculate and is never referred to as "ruins" again in any of the SoulCaliburs EXCEPT SoulCalibur VI where the narrator says "ruins of the Shrine of Eurydice" once in Cassandra's Soul Chronicle (but the stage itself still looks extremely tidy). In any case, the number of individuals confirmed to have visited it during the time span of the entire series is probably less than a dozen. Only Sophitia and maybe Rothion use it to pray. That's hardly "still in use."

>>12464285
Too fat. My Cassandra isn't this fat.

>>12462426
They rarely got it right, but I still dislike how they replaced the Priene Inscription of Alexander the Great on their swords with some meaningless scribbles from SoulCalibur IV onwards.

That pantyhose traveled back in time to 1500s like Heihachi in SoulCalibur II. Cassandra just found it randomly.
