Ninja Ein vs. Jonathan “Jon” Causith Voting is over

ninja Ein: full profile: [link]

Summary: NinjaEin has an outgoing personality, always eager to try new challenges and to hone his skills as a ninja. He prefers to work alone, but for work that involves heavy muscle he usually takes along his best friend Kristian, a.k.a. Blood Knight. He also despises cruelty and abuse, and its his lifelong mission to fight this injustice.
He also does freelance jobs as a ninja. Someone's gotta pay those bills... His clan, the Nightcrawler, adopted him after he was held hostage after a failed bank robbery. He was initiated into his training, and was taught three things about ninja:
1. Ninjas always land on their feet.
2. Ninjas fight only when the need for it intervenes all other options.
3. Ninjas throw objects with lethal accuracy.

Special moves:

Up + B: Float (Switches to Wind Esper Blade)
-NinjaEin holds the Esper Blade aloft and remains airborne for a bit. He can be knocked down, but he can also attack while airborne.

Forward + B: Throw (Random)
-NinjaEin tosses one of his knives or shurkiens.
-Fire Skean: Deals minor damage and burns the victim.
-Frost Skean: Deals minor damage and freezes the victim.
-Thunder Skean: Deals moderate damage. Breaks all blocks. (Fox's Reflector, Ness' PK Shield, and normal blocks.)
-Shurkien: Deals moderate damage.
-Splitter Shurkien: Deals moderate damage. Can split off into two separate projectiles.
-Rebound Shurkien: Deals moderate damage. Is reflected from all solid objects.

B: Element Blast (Depends on NinjaEin's current element)
-NinjaEin uses a random element to launch a single sword slice and followed by an orb of energy.

Down + B: Smoke Bomb
-NinjaEin tosses down a smoke bomb, rendering him temporarily invisible for a small while. Getting hurt will void the invisibility.

Characters course: because Jon had yet to have a battle, Ninja Ein's course is chosen. The National Cathedral in Washington D.C (explanation at bottom)

Jon Causith full profile: [link]

Summary: Jon is the youngest son of Michael Causith’s children. However, Jon was different from the brothers by learning magic and science. After graduating from An Academy for Magicians, Jon vowed to stop evil from spreading in the lives of many. Jon knew that he couldn’t save many lives by himself, so he and David created “Shadow Zero”: a group of heroic young adults. Jon packs quite a punch in both close and long ranged fighting. However, he’s not quite fast, and is a poor jumper, except when he uses his Aero- bics move, but he can take quite a beating,

Special moves:

B Bolt Focus – Jon casts a lightning spell. If you hold in the button long enough, he’ll cast two lightning streams

<-B-> Ice wind – A long-reaching icy blast comes is enchanted from Jon’s mouth. If his enemies are unfortunate to come near him, they will be frozen. Useful for most projectiles.

/\ B Aero- bics! – Jon casts an “Aero spell,” which creates a small twister around him and shoots him upward. Lasts for a good four seconds.

\/B “ Protect me!” – Either Karen or Maggie comes into the ring and makes a protection spell for five seconds. Can protect friends in team battles as well.

stage: The stage this time around is Ninja Ein's, The National Cathedral in Washington D.C

The fight unfolds on the roof at night. Players can use the darkness to their advantage to sneak up close to players, but watch for the spotlights and helicopters that hold a close watch on the stage!

The biggest hazard that would be every now and then C.I.A.S. agents would climb up on the stage, entering the battle and causing some confusion with smoke bombs and flashbangs (stun grenades).

Stage Music:
-Brave Sword, Braver Soul
-Soul Caliber II Soundtrack
