Evil Spirit Incarnate



The Evil Spirit Incarnate is the final boss from Metal Slug 5. The Ptolemaic Army seeks to release this this demon from the dimension where it's imprisoned, with their cult leaders being controlled by it through their ritual masks. This makes it the true mastermind of the game's events, despite of it's existence being unknown until the game's final battle. It's origins and purpose are a complete mystery. The Evil Spirit Incarnate appears as a gigantic gargoyle-like demon with bat wings carrying a huge scythe. It's body is pitch-black, with markings resembling a starry sky. It's face is covered by darkness, with only it's glowing red eyes appearing. It also has a skull face on it's chest, which acts as the demon's weak point.

It's approaching is indicated by a thunder storm in the background, after which the sky goes black and it's silhouette is seen on the distance. It attacks by shooting energy blasts aimed at the player that crash down to the ground, after which it flies away and raises it's scythe. As the scythe hits the ground, it scatters smoke clouds which must be avoided.

Upon being defeated, the Evil Spirit Incarnate screams and flies away, after which the sky returns to normal, signaling that it has returned to wherever it came from.
