Kunpaetku Temple: Serpentine Banquet (クンペトクー神殿・奉蛇の饗宴?) is a stage that appears in Soulcalibur VI. It is a remake of the Kunpaetku Shrine and Kunpaetku Shrine Ruin.
Profile[]
The malevolent cult Fygul Cestemus was headquartered in a grand sanctuary where throngs of the faithful worshipped Palgaea the Executioner. However, when Kunpaetku became the Grand High Priest, he ordered an entirely new temple constructed underground to be the cult's new center of worship.
The size and grandeur of the cult's new head temple is awe-inspiring, yet it still pales in comparison to the original with its thousand-year history. However, it also easily overshadows the many other temples and shrines the cult has dotted across the world. More remarkable is how the cult was able to assemble the manpower and materials required to build this enormous new subterranean sanctuary. It is clear just how much influence and power Kunpaetku had during its construction.
The temple was also designed to house a fighting force directly under Kunpaetku's command, and their formation makes his ambition to stay on top throughout the cult's many power struggles obvious.
The snake motif employed in the temple's design comes from an age when the cult worshipped many gods, one of whom was a serpentine god of rebirth. One must not forget, however, that to the cult, rebirth only comes after destruction.
Trivia[]
- The walls of the stage changes each round between two variations: one where walls surround the entire stage except the corners, and one where the walls are only at the corners.
