Saint Seiya: Ougon Densetsu Kanketsu Hen/Gameplay: Difference between revisions

Seiya is the main character of the Saint Seiya series. He is one of the eighty-eight Saints of Athena and serves loyally at her side. Seiya draws his superhuman powers from Cosmo, the energy of the Big Bang that lingers inside each being and which connects a Saint to his constellation and Cloth. He was sent to Greece to train to become a Saint under the supervision of the Silver Saint Eagle Marin. Seiya trained for six years and defeated ten other trainees to obtain the Pegasus Cloth and the status of Saint of Athena. The Pegasus Cloth represents the constellation of Pegasus, the divine winged horse from Greek mythology. Seiya tends to be the most immature of the Saints, as he frequently jokes and is unconcerned about the consequences of his actions.

=== Dragon Shiryū ===

Out of the five main characters, Shiryū is the calmest and most collected. He greatly respects his master Libra Dohko, from whom he learned not only how to use his Cosmo to fight, but also fundamental wisdom for life. He trained at the Lushan Mountains for six years under his tutelage, during which time he befriended the old master's protégé Shunrei.  In addition to possessing great physical strength, Shiryū owns one of the most durable Bronze Cloths. Having spent the last two and a half centuries under the mineral-rich waterfall of Rozan, it is harder than diamonds. It is also legendary for the shield on its left arm and its right gauntlet, endowed with powerful piercing capabilities, which have earned the Cloth its nickname as "the strongest fist and shield". Shiryū sports the image of a green and white dragon on his back which is connected to his guardian constellation and only appears as his Cosmo is rising. Whenever his life is in danger, the image begins to fade. Once it completely vanishes, it is a sign that Shiryū's Cosmo has reached zero and he is dead.

:The signature attack of the Shiryu, it is a moderately basic uppercut that, if connects, knocks the opponent soaring into the air as an image of a dragon devours him. The power of this technique varies with the cosmo of the user. The technique was made famous by its training, to master it is to reverse the flow of Lushan's Great Waterfall. The technique does have one weakness: the left hand of the user will drop for a millisecond, leaving his heart unprotected.

=== Cygnus Hyōga ===

Cygnus Hyōga is the Bronze Saint of the Cygnus constellation and was born in the fictional village of Kohoutek, in eastern Siberia. His mastery over his Cosmo grants him superhuman talents, including the ability to create ice and snow at temperatures as low as absolute zero, by stopping subatomic particles. Hyōga is often portrayed wearing a cross and rosary of the Northern Cross, another name for the constellation Cygnus. Calm by nature, he displays a seemingly emotionless exterior, but a more tender side of his character emerges on occasion, such as his deep gratitude to Andromeda Shun for having saved his life and his undying devotion to his mentor Aquarius Camus.

;Hoyoku Tensho (Phoenix Wings Ascent) (20% / 30%)

:The "Hoyoku Tensho" is an attack that manifests the saint's cosmo as a storm of fire and wind, unleashing a massive, open-handed blow capable of decimating multiple opponents.

Formerly a Saint apprentice under Ophiuchus Shaina. During the final fight for the Pegasus Cloth and the status of Saint, Seiya cut off one of his ears, and he hated Seiya for it ever since. Cassios had great respect and affection toward Shaina; however, he realizes that Shaina had affection toward Seiya. Motivated by this, he takes Seiya's place and dies during the fight with Leo Aeolia in order to wake the Leo Gold Saint from the control of Saga's Imperial Demon Fist.  As such, Cassios becomes a selectable character at that point in the game, though you never get complete control over him, as you do with the Bronze Saints.
