Special Attack: He can use the Dagger, Axe, and Stop Watch sub-weapons
Recovery: He can climb up cliffs, along the bottom of platforms, and ceilings to a number of effects

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

Sat, 17 Dec 2011 17:57:35 GMT

Alucard

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow

Sat, 17 Dec 2011 18:00:22 GMT

Special Attack: Uses one of her Fidelus glyphs to summon helpers

Breath of Death VII: The Beginning

Sat, 17 Dec 2011 18:01:29 GMT

Death

Even Death itself serves as second-in-command to Dracula! How does that make you feel, "Grim" Reaper? Yeah, that's what I thought. I'd like to see you kill me right now. I didn't think so. What's a matter? Baby gonna cry? You have no authority over--

Special Attack: Cashes in a favor and calls in its fellow brain-eaters to help finish the job

Choose Your Own Nightmare: Night of the Werewolf

Sat, 17 Dec 2011 18:04:53 GMT

Werewolf

This thing's fast and fierce, ripping through all flesh he picks up the scent for. He's not all bad, though - just during a full moon.

Main Attack: Agility and nimble combat moves
Special Attack: Goes berserk and becomes more reckless and powerful
Recovery: The moon pulls him closer to it, and thus the stage

The Mummy

Sat, 17 Dec 2011 18:05:14 GMT

Mummy

Besides Death, this guy has the most experience out of all the bad guys. Unfortunately, most of that experience is in counting sheep in wait of being excavated.

Recovery: Extends his bandaging and pulls himself into the ring again

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock

Recovery: Curls up into a ball and somersaults to solid ground

Aquaria

Sat, 17 Dec 2011 18:11:20 GMT

Main Attack: Fires water blast at enemies
Special Attack: Temporarily goes off stage, returning out of the blue elsewhere to attack off-guard combatants
Recovery: Shoots a powerful spray of water below it and propels itself diagonally upward

Sonic and the Black Knight

Sat, 17 Dec 2011 18:11:54 GMT

Axe Armor

This protectorate of Drac's castle throws his might axe and catches it as it returns. It's all a very monotonous back-and-forth, and conflicts with his aspirations to move to Lubbock and become its most decorated interior designer.

Main Attack: Swings and throws its axe
Special Attack: Charges on-stage opponents
Recovery: Throws its axe to the edge of the stage, extends its arm out, and pulls itself up

Minotaurus (LEGO Games 3841)

Sat, 17 Dec 2011 18:12:27 GMT

Recovery: Catches the edge of the stage with its axe and pulls itself on board

Devil May Cry

Sat, 17 Dec 2011 18:09:40 GMT

He's your standard evil creature from hell, meaning just like anyone else he'll always remember where he was when Donald Trump announced he wouldn't be running for president in the 2012 election.

Main Attack: Slaps the enemy and sends a shockwave as a projectile
Special Attack: Spits fireballs at the enemy
Recovery: Flies as is his due
