Her name is Scheherazade (pronunciation anyone?), she sports a saber-like weapon and comes across as a scantily clad swordswoman who loves the color pink and frilly outfits. That said, we're sure she could beat us down any day. No other Scheherazade details could be lifted from Famitsu's foreign pages, but we expect good old Namco to come to our informative-rescue and announce the entire Soul Calibur IV character list before launch. Until then, we'll try our darnedest to envision Yoda and Scheherazade going head to head in a battle to the death. Odd ...

I still can't believe freaking Yoda is in this game... It went from a must buy to a Gamefly rent with that one announcement. Ridiculous.

really? that's kinda...a retarded way of thinking. you don't HAVE to play yoda. you should play because you want to master Mitsurugi and Nightmare and own your friends over Live.
i like this new character. sorta matches with Raphael, i bet they have a story together.
with that said, i look forward to playing as Darth Vader, yes Vader. Despite hearing rumors of DLC of both Yoda and Vader, I much prefer the PS3 controller (shudders) for fighting games and don't really feel the need to pay $60 extra on a game for an arcade stick.

Isn't she the one who convinced the Sultan not to kill her by telling him a different story every night? She's like the Brother's Grim of the Arab world.
Most people leave out the second syllable when pronouncing her name.
Share-uh-zod.
