Cecil Model?

[Shadowth117]

I was viewing the Cecil model from Dissidia in Wings, and I have two questions. What's the strange spikes all around the model? Are those important for the model itself?

And two, where's the dark knight form Cecil has? I ask because the texture model is in there, but I can't find it. I know for sure they're two different models, since his dark knight didn't have a cape, and he's wearing a helmet.

I think there's a different version of the model that has it. See for PSP models for some reason there's often a bunch of duplicate models, some with slight variations. I think the dark night form was one of those variants. You should be able to find it if you look through the models with the model viewing feature of mesh2rdm.
