Soul Edge has unique, shape-shifting properties, enabling it to take the form of any weapon in existence, perfectly tailored to its wielder. As a result, Soul Edge is highly regarded and desired by warriors across the globe for its power and versatility. However, Soul Edge is cursed with evil magic; the blade feeds on the souls of its wielder and any it slays, and thus is able to possess its wielder if they do not possess a strong will. | Soul Edge has unique, shape-shifting properties, enabling it to take the form of any weapon in existence, perfectly tailored to its wielder.

In ''Soulcalibur'', Soul Edge was wielded by a Spanish pirate, Cervantes de Leon; in his hands, Soul Edge took the form of a pair of twin longswords - one male, one female. Cervantes was ultimately defeated, and the female Soul Edge was destroyed - the male Soul Edge was claimed by German knight Siegfried Schtauffen, but he succumbed to its influence and became Nightmare, an azure-clad knight who became obsessed with enhancing the sword's power. In ''Soulcalibur II'', the shards of the female Soul Edge reappeared across the world, each causing destruction and chaos with their mere presence | In ''Soulcalibur'', Soul Edge was wielded by a Spanish pirate, Cervantes de Leon; in his hands, Soul Edge took the form of a pair of twin longswords - one male, one female.

In ''Soulcalibur II'', the shards of the female Soul Edge reappeared across the world, each causing destruction and chaos with their mere presence. Each of the warriors in the game came into possession of one shard, and sought to take the shards from the other warriors - they would then either reforge Soul Edge and claim the weapon for themselves, or destroy the blade for good. | ||
The completed Soul Edge can be unlocked as a weapon for any warrior; in Link's hands, it becomes a longsword and shield, identical to his [[Master Sword]] and [[Hylian Shield]], but with a corrupted, fleshy appearance. When equipped as the warrior's weapon, Soul Edge vastly enhances their attack power and defense, but at the cost of draining their HP over time. | The completed Soul Edge can be unlocked as a weapon for any warrior; in Link's hands, it becomes a longsword and shield, identical to his [[Master Sword]] and [[Hylian Shield]], but with a corrupted, fleshy appearance.
