Schwarzwind

Siegfried with the Schwarzwind group

Schwarzwind (German for "black wind") is a group of fictional characters within the Soul series. Siegfried began to socialize with them prior to the events of Soul Edge (Soul Blade), and he soon became the leader of their band of thieves. A vast majority of the members hail from the Holy Roman Empire and are mainly encamped in the dark forests. After accidentally and unknowningly killing his father, Frederick, in an ambush, Siegfried disbanded from the clan and he wandered for 4 years in Europe, because Siegfried was seeking redemption. In the end of Soulcalibur IV Siegfried destroyed his nemesis, Nightmare and thus he got his redemption, 17 years have passed and Siegfried reformed the clan of thieves into a clan of mercenaries. In Soulcalibur V, Siegfried took both Z.W.E.I and Viola under his protection, Hilde also joined the clan as second in command.

Among others, members include Salia Olschmidt and, as of Soulcalibur V, Hilde, Viola and Z.W.E.I.

In Soulcalibur VI in the absence of Siegfried, Salia takes command of Schwarzwind.

Schwarzstrom led by Nightmare since the original Soulcalibur is an evil counterpart group of Schwarzwind.
