EctoSpectre

= GAMEPLAY INFO: =
== Special Moves: ==
* EctoWave: QCB + LA (He launches a white wave from his right hand to his opponent. Can be done in air or as a follow-up to Levitation too.)
* Spectral Gaitling: HCF + HA (He summons a gaitling gun with his ectoplasmic powers and then shoots its bullets to his opponent.)
* Ram Push: B, F + HA (He summons a ram's head with his ectoplasmic powers and then hits it to his opponent.)
* Levitation: QCB + MA (He floats himself in the air, allowing him to fly freely until you remain quiet for ten seconds or landing the ground manually with D.)
* Invisibility: Tap D three times + LA (He vanishes himself using his ectoplasm. Will remain as it is before he reappears for ten seconds or when he's hit by his opponent.)
== Superdrive: ==
Spiritual Duplicate: EctoSpectre summons a ghost duplicate behind his opponent, allowing him to do simultaneous hits, similar to Morrigan's Astral Vision. The visual difference is that his base body is glowing in a white aura.
== Powered Charges: ==
* Otherworldly Drive: HCFx2 + MA (He charges his hand with ectoplasm and dives himself like a torpedo towards his opponent, hitting him/her many times, similar to M. Bison's Psycho Crusher (The Street Fighter Alpha version). His Superdrive version, zaps to his opponent 3 times back and forth due to both him and his ghost duplicate performing the attack.)
* Ghastly Hound: HCBx2 + MA (He summons Ghostdog [his Animal Spirit] and orders his pet to do a powerful ectoplasm-coated tackle towards his opponent, knocking him/her down with huge damage. His Superdrive version, has Ghostdog biting his opponent five times after the tackle.)
== Ultimate Charge: ==
* Destroyer of Souls*: F, HCF + HA (The background turns into a dark blue hexagon pattern with his emblem appearing in the center for a while as EctoSpectre prepares by assuming a mystic pose as he shouts and then dropkicks his opponent. Once it connects, the background turns black as he starts to run towards his opponent and then phases him/her for a while, complete with a dramatic camera effect. We see how he later returns behind his opponent, holding the his/her life force shaped like a glowing soul with his hand as he says "Your life is no longer of importance! Die!" and then crushes it with a cracking sound effect, making him/her collapsing to his death, with his/her skin turning paper white in the process. After the attack, EctoSpectre just turns to the back while extending his arm, releasing ectoplasm as he says "Those unfortunate fools don't know that... I am the destroyer of souls!". If done against any villain, he just opens his hand and emmanates ectoplasm as he says "Injustice shall not be tolerated in any form or another!" instead.)
* = Requires the Maximum Charge Indicator to perform. Your opponent must have 25% of health in your winning round
= MISC.: =
* Voice Actor: Daniel Radcliffe (English), Shun Nishime (Japanese), Enzo Fortuny (Latin American Spanish)
* Intro Sequence: We see a portal in the floor before EctoSpectre jumps from it and then lands to scene as the portal dissapears. He then looks upwards and says "My personal vendetta is none of your business!" before he goes to his fighting stance.
* Victory Sequence: EctoSpectre stands firmly as he says "Whoever's interfering with my vengeance... will pay!" before he generates an ectoplasmic machine gun to shoot like frenzy, similar to Green Lantern's Injustice 2 victory sequence pose.
* Stage: Communal England (Stage Transitions: Yes)
== Stage Transitions: ==
* York's Mansion: Located at the left corner of the stage. The transition starts with the victim being trapped to the mirror. Then we see him/her floating in the Ghost Dimension, being hit by four formless spirits, followed by the sudden appearance of Mantigore (You read it right! BeastKnights' very own Mantigore!) grabbing him/her in the back with his bare hands before the Ancient Animal Spirit throws the victim to a portal, falling him/her upwards to the cave. Afterwards, the victim gets up as the player appears at the right side, continuing with the fight.
* Cave of Sorrow: Located at the right corner of the stage. The transition starts with the victim falling to the angled ladders before he/she falls to a spiraling portal that transports him/her back to the mansion. Afterwards, the victim gets up as the player appears at the left side, continuing with the fight.

Edmond York was once the classmate of Sophie Jeanette in Les Saisons Academy, being transferred from King's Might College as a former childhood friend of hers. Suddenly, the bus crash incident also caused him to be teleported to the Ghost Dimension, gaining his ghost-themed Bio-Gene. Now trained under the tutelage of Mantigore, he now returns to Earth as a vengeful vigilante.
== Stage 4 Interlude - VS. Valiant Schoolgirl ==
=== Pre-Fight Cutscene: ===
(Scene takes place in Les Saisons Academy's Backyard. Valiant Schoolgirl shows up from the entrance door. Then, we see EctoSpectre showing up via ectoplasmic teleport in front of Sophie and lands to scene.)
EctoSpectre: "I have returned, Sophie."
Valiant Schoolgirl: "Edmond? What happened to you?"
EctoSpectre: "Let's say that... I have changed."
Valiant Schoolgirl: "I though you died in the bus crash with everyone else."
EctoSpectre: "That bus crash actually reflected in me what's wrong with this city."
Valiant Schoolgirl: "Do you have an answer to it?"
EctoSpectre: "I got one: Kill all the scums responsible for it!"
(Valiant Schoolgirl reacts in horror for her former classmate's intentions before she attempts to attack EctoSpectre with a punch in the face, of which he blocks.)
Valiant Schoolgirl: "You idiot! This is a line we do not cross!"
EctoSpectre: "How naïve! Your crime-fighting system of The Team is flawed. Arresting those scums will only let the corrupt authorities free them afterwards. My solution is the answer!"
Valiant Schoolgirl: "But that makes you a murderer like them!"
EctoSpectre: "The authorities give no single heck about us!"
(EctoSpectre does a cynical smirk and kicks Valiant Schoolgirl in the chest, falling her to the ground. Afterwards, she gets up before both of them walk closer to the squared one.)
Valiant Schoolgirl: "What happened to the Edmond I met years ago? I thought you're my childhood friend!" *readies her fighting stance*
EctoSpectre: *unleashes his ectoplasmic powers* "That friend of yours is dead... you're now seeing the destroyer of souls!"
=== After Match Cutscene: ===
(EctoSpectre brings the downed Valiant Schoolgirl.)
EctoSpectre: "Get up! We haven't finished yet!"
(Valiant Schoolgirl gets up, albeit slowly.)
Valiant Schoolgirl: "What good do you have by killing the villains?"
EctoSpectre: "To maintain the citizens safe from the very menace we are in war."
(Valiant Schoolgirl then walks closer and slaps EctoSpectre.)
Valiant Schoolgirl: "Stupid idiot! The citizens abandoned us by siding with the mayor of the city!"
EctoSpectre: "Are you with me or against me?"
Valiant Schoolgirl: "I beg to differ... since you outright kill the criminals instead of arresting them."
EctoSpectre: "That's because it's the logical choice for me!"
Valiant Schoolgirl: "You don't know the true meaning of justice, Edmond."
EctoSpectre: "Justice itself represents the two sides of the same coin. Whatever method suits to you it's up to your interpretation."
Valiant Schoolgirl: "I prefer the right method, even through I'm no longer saving the citizens."
EctoSpectre: "Tch! Do as you wish... I'm leaving."
(EctoSpectre walks behind and attempts to leave, but Valiant Schoolgirl interrupts him.)
Valiant Schoolgirl: "Wait a minute! What are your true motives to return?"
EctoSpectre: "That corrupt mayor will be history... I'll be back, Sophie."
(EctoSpectre starts to hover and then leaves the scene by flying out. The camera then focuses on Valiant Schoolgirl standing still, completely worried.)
Valiant Schoolgirl: "Edmond... why you have changed?"
== Stage 7 Interlude - VS. Living Swarm ==
=== Pre-Fight Cutscene: ===
(Scene takes place in Tragic Favela. Living Swarm is seen commanding his mosquitoes to devour an off-screen civilian's lifeforce.)
Living Swarm: "The swarm has enjoyed your silence!"
(A white ectoplasmic wave suddenly hits Living Swarm, falling him down. Then, we see that EctoSpectre launched his EctoWave and denounces Living Swarm.)
EctoSpectre: "Hold it there, scum!"
(Living Swarm gets up easily.)
Living Swarm: "Do you lack manners or something?"
EctoSpectre: "This is coming from a monster who preys on the innocent."
Living Swarm: "At last I have a motive for my crusade."
EctoSpectre: "Why I do believe you?"
Living Swarm: "Those mosquitoes healed me from a supposedly incurable brain tumor I had, and in exchange I assist them in my campaign to spread fear."
EctoSpectre: "As for me... during my instance in the Ghost Dimension, I was trained by Mantigore. He told me that the citizens deserve to be saved... which is absurd in my eyes."
(Living Swarm orders his mosquitoes to attack EctoSpectre, but he evades them with ease and summons a ram's head with his ectoplasmic powers, but the fear monger blocks it with his mosquitoes.)
Living Swarm: "Impressive skills for a rule-breaker like you."
EctoSpectre: "I don't care for the rules! I make my own!"
Living Swarm: "Is that so?"
(Both return to the square one as they assume their fighting stances.)
EctoSpectre: "You will be extinct like the villain you are!" *hovers with his ectoplasm*
Living Swarm: *commands his mosquitoes to surround him* "Then suffer now, poor excuse of an edgelord!"
=== After Match Cutscene: ===
(Living Swarm is still in the ground but capable of talking.)
Living Swarm: "Ugh! You are contempible!"
EctoSpectre: "Shut up! Why you have to take innocent lives?"
(Living Swarm gets up, albeit a bit injured. However, he still laughs maliciously.)
Living Swarm: "Don't you understand? Thanks to these mosquitoes, I let them feed the citizens in order to do a blood transfusion capable of curing me from my brain tumor."
EctoSpectre: "That's a bit egotistical from your part."
Living Swarm: "You are neither good as you think you are... in fact, why not suicide yourself?"
EctoSpectre: "Are you trying to realize me that killing is not for heroes? I'm more than a hero, but I'm not letting myself becoming into a villain like you!"
Living Swarm: "If you say so, then go ahead! Kill me!"
(Living Swarm lets himself guardless intentionally so EctoSpectre would do the killing part, but refuses.)
EctoSpectre: "I refuse!"
Living Swarm: "I see... you're a coward! You are not different from those pathetic fools of The Team, especially that French--"
(EctoSpectre walks with anger in his eyes and immediately grabs Living Swarm.)
EctoSpectre: "But I have a better way to stop your acts of evil."
Living Swarm: "What are you doing?"
EctoSpectre: "You'll see... the burden of your crimes."
(EctoSpectre immediately does a Penance Stare-like ability to Living Swarm, causing the villain to be traumatized and then incapacitated by the anti-hero. After that, EctoSpectre gets off of the hold.)
EctoSpectre: "This is your fate!"
(EctoSpectre immediately leaves the stage by flying with his ectoplasm. Then, the camera focuses on the still incapacitated Living Swarm.)
== Mid-Boss Cutscene: ==
(Scene takes place in the mayor's office. The doors are open as EctoSpectre is entering as Greed-O-Crazy is getting scared out of sarcasm a la Neil deGrasse Tyson.)
Greed-O-Crazy: "Watch out! We got an edgelord over here!"
EctoSpectre: "You paraphrase an agnostic who specializes in space science?"
Greed-O-Crazy: "I just quoted him just to see your reaction."
EctoSpectre: "Enough of your farce! I came here to remove you from the map forever!"
Greed-O-Crazy: "¿Y si envío a las autoridades a arrestarte? (Translation: And if I send the authorities to arrest you?"
EctoSpectre: "To heck with the authorities! No wonder corruption exists everywhere, and this includes with your dirty practices!"
Greed-O-Crazy: "Hazme un favor (Translation: Do me a favor), surrender now and return to home or I'll tell the citizens about your attempt to off me."
EctoSpectre: "How about a no!"
Greed-O-Crazy: "Tell me the reason, Mean Brit?"
EctoSpectre: "Your political bulldung is over!"
(Greed-O-Crazy gets up from his seat, presses a button to summon a powered armor for him to wear, and starts to walk to the square one.)
Greed-O-Crazy: "I see... you don't care for anyone but to yourself."
EctoSpectre: "I'm more concerned with the safety of this city!"
Greed-O-Crazy: "¡Entonces te voy a enviar a la morgue! (Translation: Then I'm going to send you to the morgue!"
(Both assume their fighting stances.)
== Sub-Boss Cutscene: ==
(Greed-O-Crazy is defeated but he gets up easily.)
Greed-O-Crazy: "¡Ya fue suficiente! (Translation: That's enough!) I'm sending the guards!"
EctoSpectre: "You aren't going anywhere, corrupt mayor!"
(EctoSpectre summons his ectoplasmic gaitling gun and appoints to Greed-O-Crazy, who kneels himself in piety.)
Greed-O-Crazy: "Please, don't kill me! I'll promise I'm going to change! I swear it!"
EctoSpectre: "Liar! Your death will bring justice to this city once and for all!"
Greed-O-Crazy: "You are not bringing justice, fool!"
????: "There can be only one bringer of justice."
Greed-O-Crazy: "I hate you, familiar voice."
(EctoSpectre's gaitling gun dissapears as a white energy ray is coming somewhere and it hits Greed-O-Crazy, effectively dissintegrating him to death via black silhouette before the camera returns to normal.)
EctoSpectre: "Ugh... it's you!"
(And it turns out, the one who did it, turns out it's Major Megapower, whom everyone thought he was dead, but in reality, he's alive and well. He shows up to scene.)
Major Megapower: "More respect to your elders, Edmond!"
EctoSpectre: "Don't you understand that the age of ideal heroes is over since your apparent death, Mayor Megapower?"
Major Megapower: "I understand what you say... but what you do against the criminals is not righteous."
EctoSpectre: "This is coming from someone whose children are completely immoral."
Major Megapower: "Don't talk ill about my two children!"
EctoSpectre: "Francis is planning to betray The Team so he's going to start a coup d'etat and Veronica sleeps with that chainsaw-wielding scum in daily basis."
Major Megapower: "Enough of your insolence, jerk!"
EctoSpectre: "Go ahead! Understimate me!"
(Major Megapower grabs EctoSpectre's arm and goes flying with him to an abandoned observatory. Later, we cut to both of them landing to scene.)
Major Megapower: "This city is never safe to begin with, and never will..."
EctoSpectre: "I'm actually doing a favor to the society, and that's how you thank me?"
Major Megapower: "Both the innocent citizens and the criminals you kill are not human, Edmond! Stop fighting for your cause!"
EctoSpectre: "Just as I thought, you're a broken pedestal, old glory!"
(Both assume their fighting stances.)
== Final Boss Cutscene: ==
(Major Megapower is trying to get up.)
Major Megapower: "You are too extreme, even to my standards!"
EctoSpectre: "It's my duty to finish off injustice once for all!"
Major Megapower: "But at least, cover me! He's coming!"
(Just when EctoSpectre attempts to use his powers to cover Major Megapower, the screen turns black as we hear Major Megapower's death scream followed by blood splattering sounds by an unknown force before it retuns back to normal as EctoSpectre just falls out as his ectoplasmic shield dissipates, leaving him disgusted.)
EctoSpectre: "Urgh! I now fed up with everything!"
????: "Your cynicism knows no limits... right?"
EctoSpectre: "And yet what you did is unforgivable!"
(Major Megapower's corpse [whose gory hole in the back is not shown on-screen] starts to dissolve into ashes and then we are treated with a black substance, and forming from it, is Xenozydos.)
Xenozydos: "Save the greetings for later. This is Xenozydos, mastermind of the biggest catastrophe you're witnessing now, talking to you."
EctoSpectre: "Shut up! I'm going to kill you now!" *summons his spectral gaitling*
Xenozydos: "I know the source of your powers... so don't shoot me yet."
EctoSpectre: *dissipates his gaitling* "Why the ridiculous question?"
Xenozydos: "Mantigore of the Ghost Dimension trained you well, but I am aware of your gruesome methods towards injustice in general, something he disapproves in first place."
EctoSpectre: "The only way to end up with the crime is killing every single scum in existence until it leaves to nothing!"
Xenozydos: "However, you don't realize that they are not what you think at first glance."
EctoSpectre: "Of course I do! They are the reason Wonder City is in decadency!"
Xenozydos: "Ignorant! What I'm actually saying is that these "scums" you are referring are Homunculi, whose energy is needed to awake the Overlord each time you kill them!"
(EctoSpectre is now entirely enraged for the reveal.)
EctoSpectre: "Now everything that I did turned out to be a complete lie!"
Xenozydos: "And you have no choice than to pick two options: Join me in my personal war game and help the Overlord devour the life source of the entire planet... or die refusing my offer. There's no middle ground."
(EctoSpectre has decided to finish Xenozydos off for good.)
EctoSpectre: "If there's a scum that deserves to be eradicated forever... is you!"
Xenozydos: "You don't understand?"
(Xenozydos turns the abandoned observatory into an eldritch area filled with all things Lovecraftian, and above them, is the Overlord of the area, complete with a watching eye.)
Xenozydos: "Killing me will not make you a hero!"
EctoSpectre: "At last it saves me a lot of trouble!"
Xenozydos: "Prepare to be absorbed by my hand, EctoSpectre!"
(The final battle begins as both assume their fighting stances.)
== Ending: ==
(EctoSpectre is seen in the York Mansion, holding a sample of the black substance through a test tube, as a result of him offing Xenozydos for investigation.)
Edmond realized that the evil still exists in Wonder City, but this time, he will investigate the origin of the black substance and find a way to eradicate it.
EctoSpectre: "Now I learned that there's more scums than I thought... I must investigate the root of it before the Overlord awakes."
(Suddenly, the black substance is escaping from the test tube, forming many Homunculi as they manage to trap EctoSpectre with their black hands, sending him to the mirror.)
But said substance has escaped from the tube and as a result, EctoSpectre unwillingly summoned a few homunculi, approaching their opportunity to trap him through the spiritual mirror.
EctoSpectre: "Out of my way, monsters! I thought injustice is no more!"
(Later, EctoSpectre is seen floating in what it looks like a dimension of pure blackness, with his Bio-Gene being blocked from accessing.)
And so, the young rebel is now trapped in a place that nobody was heard of. With his powers sealed, he's now imprisoned in the place called the Forbidden Dimension, not letting his vengeance to be completed for an unforeseeable future.
EctoSpectre: "Why I deserve to be trapped in this place forever? Whyyyyy?"
(The screen fades black after the ending.)
(Ki:Theory's "Enjoy the Silence" starts playing as the credits which background is a blue wall with hexagon patterns with the emblems of the characters showing up at once while the credits are rolling.)
