Nicholas Angel is one of the 40 starting characters in Psychedelic Taco and one of the dreamer's dreams. He is the protagonist of Edgar Wright's 2007 film Hot Fuzz, and was added to the rosters as a representative of one of GG's favourite films, from one of his favourite directors.
A no-nonsense cop outcast to a quaint village for being too good at his job and making everybody else look bad. Nicholas finally learns to unwind when he meets Danny Butterman, a bumbling young policeman obsessed with cop films. However, he soon realises that the quaint village he now works at has a sinister secret, any nobody believes him.
The Nightmare of Axe Cop is Nicholas Rival, a fellow cop with no regard for protocol who murders people as he pleases.
==Gameplay==
Nicholas is a mid-distance controller with all-around stats and excellent movement speed. His combos are of average speed and strength, but deal high knockback. He attacks with a combination of Judo and Krav Maga, and his heavy attacks utilise a sabre.
Nicholas passive is This shit just got real. When below 50% health, Nicholas speed, jump height and attack speed all increase drastically. His dodge distance also increases.
*Neutral Special: Yeah, Motherfucker - Nicholas fires two pistols. This attack can be used as a four hit combo, with a fifth hit from his shotgun that deals high knockback.
*Side Special: Advanced Cycling - Nicholas gets on a bike and charges forwards. He will stop if he hits anyone, dealing small damage and high knockback. Nicholas is noted as having taken an Advanced Cycling course.
*Up Special: Aaaah! - Nicholas leaps upwards, firing two pistols above himself. This references a line from Danny: "Have you ever fired your gun into the air and gone aaaah?"
*Down Special: Playtimes Over - Nicholas throws a stuffed gorilla a short distance, stunning anyone it hits. This move is based on Nicholas fight with Lurch.
*Reality Break: Paperwork - Nicholas summons the rest of the Sanford police department, who deal very little damage but make it difficult for opponents to move. If anybody is killed while Paperwork is active, a clip of Nicholas intently doing Paperwork will play, increasing the damage dealt by the Sanford police department. Paperwork lasts 15 seconds.
==Deep Rest==
Nicholas Deep Rest partner is Herbert P. Bear
With PT defeated, Nicholas job was done. But this was sure to be a lot of Paperwork! Nicholas headed back to the police department to begin the ardous task of writing his report. This was going to be a long night.

Design NotesEdgar Wright is one of my favourite directors, and Hot Fuzz is one of the films that solidified that. Angel himself is also a really well done character, with Simon Pegg pully off his action hero deconstruction perfectly. Honestly don't have much else to say about this one; he's a fun character with a pretty simply moveset.
