Nosferatu (リザイア, Resire) is Robin's down special move in Super Smash Bros. 4.
Overview
If an opponent is directly in front of Robin, he can use this special to curse them and drain health from them, damaging them while healing himself. When used either in front or behind an opponent, it will always inflict 15% damage. When Robin uses Nosferatu behind an opponent, he will be healed by 16%. When in front, he will be healed by 13%. It also changes Robin's active Tome to Nosferatu if not already in use. Nosferatu can be used a total of 4 times before it breaks, and it respawns after 40 seconds have passed.
Customization
Customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. The two variations are:
- Distant Nosferatu: Nosferatu is used twice as far from Robin, making it easier to catch opponents without being directly in front of Robin. If the opponent is directly in front of Robin, the move will miss them entirely, as the dark energy is farther down, leaving Robin open to attack. This move deals 12% to the opponent, regardless if attacked from in front or from behind. When used in front of an opponent, it will cure Robin by 6%. When used from behind, it cures Robin by 8%.
- Goetia: Uses the tome Goetia, which is stronger than Nosferatu, but has no healing capabilities. It takes longer to start the move. At startup, Robin creates a dark vortex that pulls in foes before beginning to attack them. This attack has a relatively bigger range than Nosferatu, and summons a bigger dark energy spiral that engulfs the opponent and deals 19% damage.

Origin
Nosferatu is a special Dark tome from the Fire Emblem series (except for in the first five games and the Tellius series, in which Nosferatu is instead a generic tome or a Light tome). When the unit casts Nosferatu, whichever damage he or she inflicts will return to the caster in the form of healing. This effect carries over into Smash 4. Additionally, Nosferatu tomes have a lower accuracy, making it harder to hit enemy troops with it. This is reflected in Smash 4 by its difficulty to land the move.
Goetia is another Dark tome that is introduced in Fire Emblem: Awakening. It is stronger much stronger than Nosferatu, but does not have the healing property Nosferatu does. It is also easier to land in Awakening.
As a Tactician, Robin ordinarily cannot use dark magic in Fire Emblem: Awakening, though he can potentially wield such magic if he is promoted to a class that can. Sakurai gave Robin the ability to use Nosferatu as a Tactician in order to "capture certain aspects of the original title".[1]
