With a long and slender body, Faust both has a tall hurtbox, yet can crawl to dodge most moves.
In the story, Faust was originally known as Dr. Baldhead, who was was a very famous miracle doctor, until one fateful day where he failed an operation that cost a young girl her life. He went insane and began murdering people using the very techniques he had once used to save them. After the first game, he sees a vision of the girl who he failed to cure. She reveals that Baldhead did not kill her, but someone else targeted her for assassination. Some time afterwards, a strange man with a bag over his head makes his claim to fame as a healer. This strange back-alley doctor, known as Faust, is said to have powerful occult magic. In reality, he is a reformed Dr. Baldhead, hiding his true identity. He atones for the murders he committed by returning to his occupation as a healer.
As of Guilty Gear -Strive-'s Another Story, Faust uses up all of his magic to save
