Cerebella Ref 2022

Another Bootleggers character, the big don of the Leviathan Mafia, Scyllis, the scylla. Originally, the Leviathan Mafia was run by a family of serpentine lamia, but Scyllis's father staged a coup that moved the ruling power to his scylla family. Scyllis is the first inheritor to continue her father's new line of scylla dons in the Leviathan Mafia, and has much to prove as a boss worthy of leading.

Gameplay-wise, Scylla is a mid to long range hybrid between a zoner and grappler, a powerful combination offset by her near pitiful mobility. Instead of relying on mobility to close the gap, her tentacles and wolves can perform long range grabs that can force her opponent into disadvantageous situations, where Scyllis can use her mid-range tools to deal big damage. For those who are familiar, her gameplay takes inspiration from characters like Amane from Blazblue and Kan-Ra from Killer Instinct (though less from his traps and more from his normals and command grab).
