Sorry for the late message, I had to have lunch and fill out a job application, it took longer than I hoped. Anyways, I have come to explain my argument of why I personally think Nightmare from Soul Calibur is a Complete Monster

As a response to your latest edit on the page, I actually found out that from information from Soul Calibur Wiki supports the claim that Soul Edge actually is Nightmare's vigor, not aversion, as it suggests that Soul Edge and Nightmare are technically the same malevolent entity, they just take different forms (though Nightmare wields Soul Edge in physical form).

Another thing to note is that according to the main page for the category of Complete Monster, Nightmare (and Soul Edge), do in fact meet all three requisites. 1.  He presents both the main characters (primarily Siegfried and Patrokolos ), as well as mortals in negative ways, often calling them pathetic and foolish, 2. He is serious, and evokes fear on many of the series' characters, and 3. He shows no regret for any crimes or evil deeds he commits, often evoking pleasure and pride (arrogance) from these instead, the series also implies he knows what's good and what's evil, he just thinks evil is good and vice versa. This is also the same case for the TV Tropes page as well. I know you said that you don't always trust the TV Tropes website, but this where the category [offically] originated from.

Another thing I probably forgot to mention from my edits (curse you summary limitations) is that I have actually played most of the canon games (Soul Edge - Soul Calibur V). I don't know the case for you, so I am not going to ask you as a way to feel smug or haughty.

Overall, what I'm trying to say is that Soul Edge is actually Nightmare's strength and that he meet all three requisites for both the category page and the TV Trope website, I'm not sure if there's an extended definition, but in terms of the basic one, he meets it.

If this didn't convince you, then at least I tried, but there are some things we could agree on Nightmare's persona.
