These characters have long been considered off-limits to Street Fighter fans, considering the games were developed by Arika, and although each profile has a "Copyright Arika" mark at the bottom, these characters are still being introduced, and some even contain references to Street Fighter 5's story and current happenings.
Whether Capcom and Arika have reached some sort of deal or not, it's quite exciting to see. Here comes a character whose ominous aura rivals even that of Garuda - Shadowgeist. Check out his image here.

Profile
In a country ruled by a cruel dictatorship, his wife was slaughtered and his only daughter went missing.
In order to avenge them, he went through rigorous strengthening of his body, turning into a tragic hero.
He also fights to protect the poor citizens of this ravaged country.
... This background was way rougher than I'd imagined.
Apparently, he also has a self-destruction device embedded within his body.
Once again, some comments from Mr. Nin!
Nin's Comments
He's so cool! This is one of my favorite designs.
I really like mysterious monsters and mysterious fighters.
His super move, "Death Energy", draws his opponent towards him, but it had so many bugs we had to worked out, I feel bitter remembering it...
