Charade (シャレード, Sharedo) is a character in the Soul series of fighting games. He debuted in
Soulcalibur II as a main character and returned as an unplayable character in

Sophitia's fighting style.
Biography
Bio: Soulcalibur II
Charade is formed of a man who is weary from war-torn lands and dreaming of adventure. He finds the legends of Soul Edge, and begins to find its fragments. He is eventually murdered by bandits who had heard a rumor circulating in the cities of a man overly-protective of his possessions. Still grasping the fragments, his corpse is thrown into a river. The blood from the hands forms around the fragments due to the man's tenacity to protect his precious fragments. This being seeks out to find more shards, so it can devour them and become whole. He eventually becomes part of the Soul Edge. Charade is able to scan minds of warriors it confronts, and then creates weapons out of its body to accommodate the fighting style it imitates. In
Soulcalibur IV,
Nightmare summons the remaining fragments of Soul Edge to Ostrheinsburg Castle to become whole. Among them are the second Soul Edge created by
Cervantes and fragments that have become half-living creatures one of which might have been Charade.
