Veil is a character in the third installment of the Battle Arena Toshinden video game series. He made his first and only appearance in Battle Arena Toshinden 3, as both the hidden unlockable final boss and the final antagonist. He has an almost identical moveset to Abel, although his attacks are slightly more damaging and he has the ability to teleport around the arena. He also has the same voice as Abel, although the reasons for this are unknown.

Story[]

Veil was once the leader of the Soshiki, but when he failed to summon Agon Teos, he was imprisoned by Abel, one of his soldiers. He managed to break free during the third tournament, however, and decided to face Abel and exact his revenge. But before he could face him, Eiji Shinjo had killed Abel. Enraged, Veil attacked Eiji, and after a tough and fierce fight, Veil himself was defeated and killed by Eiji. Veil has the same voice as Abel, and they share the same fighting style, possibly indicating that they may be personally connected in some way.

Trivia[]

The screenshot with Japanese text below says that the Soshiki's ritual failed, and Veil is an entity of destruction that had been sealed within Abel. After its release, it seeks only to satisfy its thirst for destruction.
His appearance was possibly modeled after the Japanese heavy metal singer, Demon Kakka (formerly known as Demon Kogure), since they both share similar make up, hairstyle and outfit.
