List of characters in the Castlevania series

Listed below are characters from all of the "Castlevania" video game series.

Recurring characters

;Nihongo|Dracula|ドラキュラ|Dorakyura:The "Castlevania" games have always had a single focus on the main antagonist, Dracula, who is completely based on the original character by Bram Stoker. With a few exceptions, Dracula has been the villain of every title. He desires to wage war against humanity and take the world under his possession, but has been foiled by the Belmonts in every generation of his immortal life. When defeated, Dracula is prophesised to return again every 100 years.

:Despite being the primary villain of the series, his role is often passive, and he simply waits in his castle, letting his monsters confront anyone for him. His appearance varies from game to game, but a few recurring ones exist.

;Nihongo|Simon Belmont|シモン・ベルモンド|Shimon Berumondo:Simon would fulfill the Belmont legacy via defeating Dracula. However, this was a ploy by Dracula, who sacrificed an early resurrection to lay a curse upon Simon. To halt the curse, Simon would have to find Dracula's body. However, Dracula's minions took his body parts and hid them throughout Transylvania. Despite this, Simon was successful in locating all of Dracula's body parts, and upon doing so, revived Dracula once more. He promptly defeated Dracula, lifting the curse.

:While "Super Castlevania IV" is only a remake of the original "Castlevania" in the official Japanese canon for the series outlined by Koji Igarashi, Konami USA modified "Super Castlevania IV" by localizing it into a sequel to "Castlevania II: Simon's Quest", altering the introduction story within the manual and the game itself, making the game the third time Simon faced Dracula. Konami USA still reflected the modification within the U.S. canon, as seen in a Konami timeline printed in an issue of Nintendo Power around the release of the "Sorrow" series. However, Konami USA left out the U.S. version of "Super Castlevania IV" in their Xtreme Desktop Timeline and the timeline included with pre-orders of "Portrait of Ruin", indicating that Konami USA has changed their decision and are taking the series closer to IGA's vision. Simon Belmont is the grandfather of Juste Belmont. [ Juste: My grandfather, Simon, gathered and destroyed the relics in order to end Dracula's curse. Konami. "Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance". Konami. Game Boy Advance. 16-9-2002. [http://www.gamefaqs.com/portable/gbadvance/file/554981/17572] ]

;Nihongo|Death|デス|Desu:Death, also sometimes referred to in Japan as Nihongo|God of Death|死神|Shinigami, is present in nearly all "Castlevania" games. Death is often a boss fought toward the end of the game. Most sources, such as game manuals, cite that he is Dracula's second in command. Sometimes he has played an important role to the story line, such as "".

:In most of his appearances, Death looks no different than the cultural personification of The Grim Reaper. He wears a hooded cloak and holds a scythe. Like Dracula, he can change into a second form upon being defeated in the game.

;Nihongo|Alucard|アルカード|Arukādo

The Adventure and Belmont's Revenge

;Nihongo|Christopher Belmont|クリストファー・ベルモンド|Kurisutofā Berumondo:Christopher Belmont starred in two "Castlevania" games as a protagonist, both for the Nintendo Game Boy system.

He also was the protagonist in the limited "Castlevania: The Belmont Legacy" comic book series released by IDW Publishing.

;Nihongo|Soleiyu Belmont|ソレイユ･ベルモンド|Soreiyu Berumondo|lit. "Soleil Belmondo":Soleiyu Belmont appears as a non-playable character in "", which was released for the Game Boy in 1991. Judging from the spelling in the Japanese version of the game, the name "Soleiyu" was probably meant to be "Soleil," the French word for "Sun".

:In 1591, Soleiyu, who recently celebrated his coming of age, went alone to explore four mysterious castles that appeared out of the fog. He was captured by Dracula's minions and bewitched to do the Count's evil bidding. With the youth's help, Dracula was able to take human form once again. Christopher Belmont, his father, ultimately rescued him from the clutches of evil.

Dracula's Curse

;Nihongo|Trevor C. Belmont|ラルフ・C・ベルモンド|Rarufu Shī Berumondo|lit. "Ralph C. Belmondo":Trevor C. Belmont is the primary protagonist in "" and a supporting character in "."

:He was the first Belmont in the family to defeat Dracula. This was accomplished with the aid of Grant DaNasty, Sypha Belnades and Alucard. He would later marry Sypha Belnades and have children with her. This would add the prodigious magical powers of the Belnades line to the Belmont line, which would be most prominently seen in Juste Belmont.

:He later plays a secondary role in "Curse of Darkness", where he is investigating the rise of Dracula in the reason. He confronts the Devil Forgemaster Hector, and although initially treats him with contempt, he aids him in his quest after being injured by Isaac Julia LaForeze gets to him in time. He survives, though barely, and is unable to do anything for the remainder of the battle. Meanwhile, Hector succeeds in stopping Isaac and sending Dracula’s castle back into the abyss, effectively lifting the curse placed three years prior. So, despite his nearly fatal defeat, Trevor’s mission was accomplished.

:He, along with Sypha Belnades and Grant DaNasty, later makes a cameo appearance in ' when zombies impersonate the trio to antagonize Alucard. The same zombie impersonators also appear in ' when Jonathan Morris and Charlotte Aulin trek the Nest of Evil.

;Nihongo|Grant DaNasty|グラント・ダナスティ|Guranto Danasuti|lit. "Grant Danesti"

Rondo of Blood and Symphony of the Night

;Nihongo|Richter Belmont|リヒター・ベルモンド|Rihitā Berumondo:Richter Belmont has starred as a protagonist in two games. In "Symphony of the Night", he became a possessed enemy, but upon completing the game, an option to play the entire game as him is unlocked. He is also playable in an extra mode in "".

:Hero of both ' games and also a major character in ', Richter had to battle legions of Dracula's monsters to save his love interest Annette. In "Symphony of the Night", Richter mysteriously disappears. He was cursed and placed under the control of Shaft, a dark priest and servant of Dracula. Players will end up facing Richter. Killing Richter will result in the bad ending, whereas saving him will continue the game.

:In his first two appearances, as well as the prologue for the third, Richter wears a headband and a blue uniform. In "Symphony of the Night", only in the Saturn version following the prologue, he wears his hair quite a bit longer and is dressed in much more regal attire. He also gains a few new abilities, notably a dash, a slide attack, and a super jump that doubles as an uppercut.

:In "Portrait of Ruin", something resembling Richter fights Jonathan Morris in a test created by Stella and Loretta Lecarde. Richter, considered to be the last memory of the Vampire Killer, fights Jonathan to test his worthiness in wielding its full power. As such, Richter can be construed to the last Belmont to wield the Vampire Killer before killed Dracula in 1999.

;Nihongo|Maria Renard|マリア･ラーネッド|Maria Rāneddo|lit. "Maria Learned":Maria Renard is a distant blood relative of the Belmont clan, [cite web | title="Rondo of Blood" manual | publisher=The CastleVania Dungeon | url=http://castlevania.classicgaming.gamespy.com/Games/rondomanual.html | accessdate=2006-08-15] although in "", she was rewritten to be the sister of Richter's beloved, Annette.

:In 1792, Maria was captured, along with several other young women, and taken to Dracula's castle. Richter Belmont saved Maria from Shaft, one of Dracula's servants, who was attempting to cast a spell on her. Once Maria is rescued, she becomes playable and uses various magically enhanced animal attacks for combat. There exists an ending in which Maria confronts and defeats the Count instead of Richter.

:In the introduction sequence to "Symphony of the Night" (a retelling of the final boss battle "Akumajō Dracula X"), if Richter's health completely runs out, a twelve-year old Maria will appear and amplify Richter with her magic in his effort to defeat Dracula.

:Four years after the defeat of Dracula, Richter vanished. Maria immediately set out to find him. After a year of searching, in 1797, she finally found Castlevania. In the castle she learned that Richter was working in concert with the dark forces. With Maria's help, the half-vampire Alucard was able to break Shaft's hold on Richter and defeat Dracula. Depending on certain player actions in Symphony, the player will receive different endings. In one, Maria will admit to not being able to live without Alucard and go after him. In another, she will resign herself due to the fact that she cannot ease his torment and returns home with Richter.

;Nihongo|Shaft|シャフト|Shafuto:Shaft is a dark priest that appears as antagonist in "Akumajō Dracula X Chi no Rondo" and "". In 1792, Shaft aids Dracula in his plans to kidnap several young women. He is defeated by Richter Belmont after conjuring several monsters in an attempt to defeat him. Later in the game, Shaft's ghost makes a final attempt to stop the hero.

:In 1797, Dracula's monsters kidnap Richter and brainwash him. Shaft is instrumental in using his evil powers to control Richter, turning him against anyone who seeks to defy Dracula. Maria guesses that he is under their influence and helps Alucard to see past Shaft's deception. Alucard is able to save Richter instead of killing him, and goes on to defeat Shaft, although not before Shaft successfully revives Dracula.

;Nihongo|Annette|アネット|Anetto:Richter Belmont's love interest.

;Nihongo|Tera|テラ|Tera:The lead priest of Richter's village. She was kidnapped by Dracula's minions to taunt Richter, along with Annette, Maria, and Iris.

;Nihongo|Iris|イリス|Irisu:The doctor of Richter's village. She was kidnapped by Dracula's minions to taunt Richter, along with Annette, Maria, and Tera.

;Nihongo|Carmilla|カーミラ|Kāmira:Carmilla is a servant of Dracula. Her name is a reference to the title character of the 1872 gothic horror novel "Carmilla". She appears as an antagonist in ', "Akumajō Dracula X Chi no Rondo", and '. She is a devoted worshiper of chaos and Dracula. In 1830, she successfully resurrects Dracula in her Austrian castle, although he hasn't regained his full power. To restore it, they plan to sacrifice the vampire hunter Morris Baldwin, father to Hugh Baldwin and mentor to Nathan Graves, during a lunar eclipse of the full moon. As Nathan begins making headway in the effort to rescue his master, Carmilla brainwashes Hugh to do her bidding and challenges Nathan to a battle in the Underground Waterway. Although she dies, Carmilla relishes the fact that the rite to restore Dracula's power is nearly finished.

:Carmilla's appearances and names have differed. In "Simon's Quest", Carmilla was first known as nihongo|Vampira|女吸血鬼|Jo Kyūketsuki|lit. "Female Vampire". Her appearance was interpreted as a mask that leaked tears of blood. Until the release of "Rondo of Blood", Carmilla and her mask were available in the game as a boss. This was the first time in the series she was referenced by the name.

:In "Rondo of Blood", Carmilla has blue-haired companion called Nihongo|Laura|ローラ|Rōra. Laura was a character from the original novel, "Carmilla". She is referred to in "Portrait of Ruin" as "Carmilla's eternal servant".

;Nihongo|Lisa|リサ|Risa:Alucard's mother, and Dracula's second wife. Unlike others, she could see past his personality and see a lonely man. She died from being accused of witchcraft after healing villagers with mountain herbs. Alucard witnessed her death and promised her not to hate humans and tells Dracula she will love him for eternity, which Alucard relays in "Symphony of the Night". She was indirectly the reason Dracula swore the destruction of mankind.

;Nihongo|Succubus|サキュバス|Sakyubasu:In "Symphony of the Night", the succubus copies Lisa to change Alucard's side. When she was defeated, she realized who Alucard was, and died by his hand.

Bloodlines

;Nihongo|John Morris|ジョニー・モリス|Jonī Morisu|lit. "Johnny Morris":John Morris made an appearance in a single "Castlevania" game, "Castlevania: Bloodlines". He is a descendant of the Belmont family, and wields the Vampire Killer whip, much like his ancestors. "Bloodlines" is deeply intertwined with the storyline of Bram Stoker's Dracula. As such, the father of John Morris is Quincy Morris, a character from the novel. It is only known that the Morrises are somehow of Belmont lineage. It is interesting to note, that in the novel, Quincy stabs Dracula at the cost of his life, while Harker cuts off Dracula's head. The very fact however, that he managed to unknowingly deal a crippling blow to Dracula may have been the foundation for his part in the "Castlevania" version of these events. John was killed some time after the events of "Bloodlines", as it was revealed his wounds wouldn't recover; this was caused by using the Vampire Killer, which would sap the strength of someone not fully of the Belmont lineage, and by the time John learned this properly, it was too late.

;Nihongo|Eric Lecarde|エリック・リカード|Erikku Rikādo|lit. "Eric Ricardo":Born on May 3, 1892 in Segovia, Spain, he uses the Alucard Spear. Eric volunteered to take his friend's place in the hunt.

He gets a magical orb from each of them that unlocks the way to Walter's lair. When he gets past the initial barrier, Walter is there with Sara, who appears to be in some sort of trance. Walter returns Sara to Leon, who finds out that Sara has been tainted and will soon become a vampire. In an act of self-sacrifice, Sara offers her soul to Leon in a ritual that will make Rinaldo's magic whip deadly to vampires and thus allow Leon to defeat Walter. This is where the whip officially becomes "Vampire Killer." Leon, armed with the powerful whip, Rinaldo's grief, and his anger, defeats Walter. However, Walter's death was in actuality orchestrated by Leon's friend Mathias Cronqvist in order to get Walter's coveted "Ebony Stone" which was a powerful vampire artifact and had the power to cast eternal night upon the forest. Mathias reveals himself as the mastermind, the owner of the "Crimson Stone" (another powerful vampire artifact), and as a vampire, which Vampire Killer can now sense.
