Faust is a character in the Guilty Gear fighting game series, making his first appearance in the first game, Guilty Gear as Dr. Baldhead before hiding his identity and becoming Dr. Faust from Guilty Gear X onwards. Faust's extreme height (9'3" wink and light weight (121 lbs) give him a bizarre, tall, lanky physical appearance , and allows him to tower over every other character in the game (although he rarely does, due to his extremely low fighting stance). He wears a paper bag as a mask (with one eyehole), and wields a giant scalpel as a weapon, in addition to other unpredictable and bizarre moves.
Faust can do large amounts of damage with some fairly basic tactics to confuse and misdirect the opponent; he has random properties of his own that make even playing as him somewhat of a guessing game. His "Nani Ga Deru Kana?" or "I wonder what will come out?" move throws out a totally random object that can have varying abilities, which help enhance his rushdown capability. Depending on what pops out, Faust may change his current gameplan. For example, double jumping after a Bomb is released will make him fairly impervious to it, while a Mini-Faust will help enhance his rushdown.
In his previous life as Dr. Baldhead, he was once renowned as a medical genius - one of the best in the world. People would come from far and wide to be cured by him. But one day, a young girl he was operating on died. This drove Baldhead mad, and he became a serial killer, employing both his knowledge of human anatomy and his occult powers against his victims. He was soon locked in a dimensional prison, but Baldhead was released to participate in the tournament Testament hosts. In his ending, he is visited by the voice of the young girl whose death drove him to insanity. She assures him that her passing was not his fault, and that he shouldn't blame himself. He then runs off into the night. It goes on to say that the serial killer known as Baldhead was never seen again, but that a new healer emerged. In the next game he is reintroduced as Faust, who is wandering, and trying to atone for his killings by resuming his duties as a doctor, and helping as many people as he can. His past still haunts him, he sometimes (not often but rarely) losing control and may panic over something such as blood, but he usually recovers quickly, sounding hauntingly exhausted afterwards.
New York Comicon 2009!
This is the only thing I could find from that con with me in it.
Luckily....I'm incredibly proud of this x'D
Everyone does their own little jig after awhile. Mine comes in at 1:44, but I love watching the whole clip x3 ♪
Connecticon 2009!
Lookie lookie! I found a cat lady!
Hee, I was lucky enough to find a Taokaka at CTcon while I was Faust. It was nice :3
I like this picture a lot x3 Not only because I got to pose with one of my favorite Blazblue characters, but because it's a picture of the two wacky characters of Guilty Gear and Blazblue, which are made by the same company, posing together.
It was wonderful :'D
Here is the continuation of the previous picture!
My friend who was cosplaying I-No found us and joined in the next picture x3
That man in the black suit behind Taokaka is Johnny from Guilty Gear; he was sneaky and slid into the picture xD
I just realized I look weirdly thin in this picture. Funky owO
