Info

Appearance:

  • Potemkin is an 8 foot tall dark-skinned man with arms the size of his torso each.
  • His hair is dark brown and cut very short.
  • He has a barcode tattooed on his left shoulder that reads #4595605381, his original name. Although he definitely didn't get that willingly, he doesn't seem to resent it and even wears a similar pattern on his clothes sometimes.
  • Although it's hardly the first thing that gets commented on, he has very strange eyes that are completely white, with no irises or pupils. There is no explanation for this I'm sorry.
 

Very expressive regardless.


Music:

Xrd: ENGAGE (My favorite please click)
Guilty Gear 1: In Slave's Glory
Pretty much everything else: Burly Heart

Guilty Gear characters are usually themed around bands or musicians, so Potemkin is generally accepted to be a walking reference to Led Zeppelin.

Voice:

Potemkin is traditionally voiced by the same voice actor as Faust - Takashi Kondou. Here is a library of samples of Potemkin's sweet voice telling you how to purchase Guilty Gear Xrd while wishing you a happy birthday (none of the above is a joke.)

Potemkin's only English voice actor is Kirk Thornton AKA Jade Curtiss AKA Shadow the Hedgehog. He does an interesting thing of alternating between an ultra smooth speaking voice and a gruffer fighting voice. You can hear a decent sampling of each in his Instant Kill.
