The Adrian and The Fortress, also called Odalisque and Adrian in the Japanese version, is Cervantes' home stage in Soulcalibur.

Profile

This battle fortress on the Atlantic coast of Spain served double duty as a trading port for treasure ships of the Spanish Armada.

When the dread pirate Cervantes returned from beyond the grave, he began to attack and plunder treasure ships from the Americas as well as the Far East. Even ships from his motherland Spain were not spared from his ruthless ways. In fact, there are various historical records of clashes between Cervantes and the Spanish Armada.

His ship, the Adrian, became a ghost ship that was surrounded by an otherworldly glow that resembled St. Elmo's fire. The eerie sight of this ship could be seen from dusk to dawn when Cervantes prowled the high seas for his next victim.

Due to the sheer number and spread of the St. Elmo's fire, Cervantes' victims believed they were surrounded by a large pirate fleet and either abandoned ship or fell into a state of sheer madness.
