Alcadan is a supporting character in the Soul Calibur series of fighting games. He appeared only in Soul Calibur III as a martial arts trainer and the leader of The Birds of Passage, a secret clan of assassins who worship Horus of Earth's ancient Egypt.
Biography[]
Ever since he was born ages ago the man known by the name of Alcadan was skilled in every kind of fighting art one could imagine. As if he was bestowed upon the gift of Onaga or the Elder Gods themselves, ha!
With two single exceptions that had ended in a draw, he could boast that he had been completely undefeated in innumerable and uncountable duels he had fought in. He then turned his eyes to the Gods where he demanded Godhood. The mightiest Elder God known as Gait commented that Alcadan resembled Horus in some way but while he denied Alcadan the desire to become a God, he rewarded him with a resemblance to the ancient Egyptian deity; turning his Durian head into that of an owl. Upon seeing this blessing, the other denizens people of Duro sought godhood as well, but none were worthy. Not long after, Alcadan created a group of assassins and thieves loyal only to him, called The Birds of Passage. The clan members were all big fans and fanatics of Earth's deity Horus and they were more than willing to serve Alcadan and his schemes to gain more and more power. Alcadan even had his own temple build in the east side of Duro in the desert, resembling Egypt and its pyramids.
When the Elder Gods heard of Alcadan creating and leading a group of criminals in order to seek some power, they instantly regretted ever having bestowed him and sent down their best angel, Siegfried, into capturing him and bring him before them. Hearing of this, Alcadan hid in his temple, sprawling deep beneath the earth and took a rest for a couple of years, waiting for his bounty put on him by the Gods to end, despite the fact that he could have easily bested Siegfried thanks to his martial arts skills... probably.
After almost all of the Gods have been imprisoned by Cetrion, however, a Goddess who had no beef at all with Alcadan, Miser and Yun-seong (two of his gang members) opened up the seal of the labyrinth in his temple and Alcadan awoke. Stepping out from the temple for the first time in a couple of years, he learned that their planet was in a turmoil between their current ruler Overlord Hecurzo and Nightmare. However, Alcadan was not particularly troubled by the fact and shrugged those issues off and instead focused on acquiring a powerful sword known as Soul Calibur after he was told of it's existence and powers by Greed. Alcadan send some of his men to capture the sword which was rumoured to be abandoned in the Heavens.
Meanwhile, Owl man decided to teach people the fighting techniques that he had developed by himself, and made sure they all joined his clan. Alcadan eventually came across an eager student of Li-Long named Kilik and taught him some of his combat skills as well. Their battle training actually ended in a draw, but Alcadan was so close at defeating him.
After hearing of the Soul Calibur being destroyed along with Hecurzo by Nightmare for the leadership of the entire planet, Alcadan send his followers off of their mission and instead focused on becoming the next champion of the Rocky tournament on the Lakeside Coliseum, something he succeeded in after defeating Rock.
Today he is still alive and well, and apparently still trains random denizens to become his clan members, as he has many rivals of his own everywhere and needs lots of hitmen.
