Elysium (エリュシオン) is a character in the Soulcalibur series, debuting as a major antagonist and final boss in Soulcalibur V. She is the spirit and will of the holy sword Soul Calibur, similar to Inferno being the living incarnation of the evil sword Soul Edge. Elysium often appears in revealing attire resembling a Greek goddess, with wings and long braids. Despite her feminine appearance, she has no true sex, presenting herself as female to match the perception of the protagonist, Patroklos, particularly modeling herself after his mother, Sophitia. Elysium is incredibly powerful, able to perfectly mimic and improve upon any female fighting style, and can morph Soul Calibur into a form matching those styles. She can teleport herself and her opponent to Astral Chaos and protect people within that realm. She is also capable of ice crystal manipulation, flight, and possessing the body of Soul Calibur’s wielder. Elysium's goal is to destroy Soul Edge and its wielder, and she is ruthless in her pursuit of this, willing to take any means necessary. While seemingly benevolent, she is ultimately driven by her objective, demonstrating her fierce will and power.
