Aarbron

Summary:

Aarbron is the Main Protagonist of the "Shadow of the Beast" Trilogy in 1989, and it's remake in May 2016. He was once a normal baby, before being kidnapped by the servants of a Maletoth. This was because, Aarbron had the capability to be a vessel that could bind a 1000 souls together. After a a huge ritual, all the souls corrupted Aarbron's body and soon he became Aarbron, The Beast. A tool for Maletoth to use in his world conquest. In this new form, Aarbron was unstoppable; easily taking most of Karamoon for Maletoth.

Then news of a second baby, one that had the same potential as Aarbron, was born somewhere in the land. Maletoth, believing he could create another Beast, order's his Mage Zelek to take Aarbron and capture the child. Though the baby was well protected by a Group known as the Seekers, Aarbron easily slaughtered them all. All hope seemed to be lost until finally Aarbron (Unknowingly) stood before his father... Before fatally wounding him. Under his fatther's dying breath, Aarbron recognizes his father and remembers who he was. The blood of his father breaking the chains that bound him, and Aarbron, for the first time since, gains his free will. Now he sets out on a journey through the land to gain revenge on the one who turned him into the Beast.

There are some slight differences between the original and the reboot. The first is that Aarbron didn't have claws and his enemies exploded after each attack (Signifying that they're dead). Now Aarbron has claws and can absorb blood to gain power. He also killed Zelek in the second game and Maletoth in the finale, however, in the reboot Zelek is killed in the third stage and Maletoth's fate can be chosen. Aarbron also gains his human form in the third game (and can use shirikens... For some reason), but he stays in this form during the reboot. Overall,theit stats are the same.

Weaknesses: Aarbron's power comes from all the souls bound to his body, as such this power can be taken away as those souls can be forcibly stripped from him (much like how Maletoth tried to do that before). Though this can work vice versa as Aarbron can gain more souls to power himself up. Some of his moves require blood to use.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Blood Bar: Aarbron can absorb blood to make him stringer and can spend this blood to do more powerful techniques. (He has three bars in all)

Parasite: Aarbron pounces on his enemy and bites into their flesh, absorbing blood and regaining some of his health (Costs a bar of blood)

Pummel: Aarbron knees his enemy and knocks them into the ground. He then straddles and then stabs them several times in face

Flaming Arms: After Aarbron touched a strange artifact, his arms now burna bright blue flame, lighting up dark areas. He can light up his arms a little more to light up an entire small room

Gun Gauntlet: Eventually, Aarbron stumbled across a bracelet that can turn into a gun at will. With this he can fire energy blasts in exchange for blood. (each shot takes a fair action of the bar). He can also charge up the shot to make it more powerful

Wrath of Aarbron: Aarbron stabs the ground and then several spikes pop out of the earth impaling anyone whose nearby. Aarbron can also use this on large enemies to impale their heads from the inside out (as seen from his boss fight with Ifrit)

Shadow Double: Aarbron can create a shadow copy of himself that can help assist him in battle. They don't last long though.

Rage Chain: Aarbron has an adrenaline Rush and can kill lesser enemies in one attack (Usually only used on Fodder)

Shuriken Throw: Apparently Aarbron learned how to throw shurikens in Shadow of the Beast 3.

Fullpower: Near the end game of the reboot, Aarbron absorbs the souls of all he had slain before fighting Maletoth who was piloting the Leviathan. With the power of all the souls he could create a large blade of blood that sliced the top of the leviathan's head in the end of the battle. (Just wanted to add that in there)
