Dracula

1. #1Dracula

   Keys: Dracula, Mathias Cronqvist, Vlad

   Dracula, the most powerful vampire, unbeknownst to most people, was originally a human nobleman and crusader named Mathias Cronqvist, but he later transforms, changing his name to Vlad Țepeș Dracula after experiencing deep sorrow and a perceived betrayal from god (Dracula's first beloved, Elisabetha, died due to an illness, an event which Mathias, now Dracula, blames god for), which leads him to seek the powers of darkness. As a vampire, Dracula becomes a symbol of evil and chaos, using his immense magical and physical strength to rule over dark creatures, such as vampires, monsters, and demons. It should be mentioned, that in order to gain his dark powers, Mathias (Dracula), manipulated his best friend Leon Belmont, which resulted in the death of Leon's betrothed, and Leon's subsequent oath for his bloodline to hunt down Dracula (Dracula, for his part, does not regret his actions, but regrets that Leon did not join him in darkness, since he valued their friendship deeply). Over the centuries, Dracula wages wars against the forces of good, most notably the Belmont family, who serve as his greatest adversaries, since their lineage is tied to the legendary Vampire Killer whip, which can defeat him. Dracula had a half vampire son named Adrian (Now known as Alucard), with a human woman named Lisa, who became his second wife. Sadly, Lisa was burned at the stake in 1476 during a witch hunt, and the event only served to make Dracula more extremist in his views towards humanity, blaming them for killing Lisa.

2. #2Dracula's castle

   Keys: Castlevania, Dracula's castle, Dracula castle, Draculas castle

   Dracula's castle (Sometimes known as Castlevania) is Count Dracula's lair and symbol of his magic. It houses an army of his supernatural minions, and always collapses when Dracula is defeated. Yet, it is able to restore itself and often reappears intact later when Dracula is revived, or if his powers are strong enough to begin affecting the mortal world once again. The exact location of Dracula's castle is impossible to determine. Being an entity of Chaos, it has the ability to reemerge in different places, and alter it's interior layout, whenever it revives. Still, the vast majority of times it has reappeared was in Europe, in Transylvania.

3. #3Belmont clan

   Keys: Belmont clan, Belmont

   The Belmont Clan was not formed with the purpose of destroying creatures of the night until after Leon Belmont vowed to hunt the night. It was in the same time period that the Vampire Killer, the Belmonts' primary weapon, was created. Afterward, the Belmonts' sole duty became protecting the world from darkness, especially that of Vampires, and they've since earned a reputation as the most powerful clan of vampire hunters that ever existed. They are the only ones that can safely wield the Vampire killer whip (The Morris family can also do so, but it's potentially hazardous for their health.), and they also posses incredible physical prowess combined with some supernatural and holy powers.

4. #4Vampire killer

   Keys: Vampire killer, whip

   The Vampire Killer, also known as Holy Whip or Magic Whip, is the legendary whip wielded by several heroes of the Belmont Clan, and on rare occasions, those of the Morris Clan.

   The whip was originally a less powerful magic weapon created with alchemy by Rinaldo Gandolfi prior to Dracula's rise to power, and the whip was only known as the Whip of Alchemy. Eventually, it was transformed into a far more powerful weapon after the death of Sara Trantoul, the betrothed of Leon Belmont, wielder of the Whip of Alchemy at that time. Sara, who had been fatally cursed with vampirism, had to willingly sacrifice herself to make the whip "whole" and able to defeat powerful vampires. This was because the whip needed a willing, yet tainted soul to unlock its true potential.

   This whip not only does serious damage to vampires, but to any demon. Even the Grim Reaper, Death himself, is damaged by the whip.

   Usage of the whip by a person who is not a direct descendant of the Belmont clan is potentially deadly (And only possible by the Morris, a branch family), and it also requires an activation ritual. Otherwise, the whip will not manifest its legendary power, and seem for all intents and purposes to be a fairly ordinary leather whip, inferior to most kinds of combat weaponry.

5. #5Vampire

   Keys: Vampire, Vampiress

   Vampires are undead, supernatural beings known to feast upon the blood of living beings. Depending on their power, they are endowed with dark abilities, like superhuman physical prowess, shapeshifting, flight, teleportation, electrokinesis, pyrokinesis and immortality. They are able to grant vampirism to others by feeding their own blood to their victims and can only be slain by sunlight, with anointed and holy items, or by destroying their hearts. Typically, the more beautiful the vampire, the more powerful they are, though there are exceptions. Only one vampire is known to be capable of reincarnation, and that is Dracula. Also, So far, all vampires known are universally evil in some way, being sadistic, nihilistic, ruthless, arrogant and uncaring of all destruction they wage. Some like Dracula go as far as justifying their actions by claiming they exist because the evil of humanity allows them to, thus even questioning the notion that they could be deemed "evil". The only exception known is Alucard, who is not a full vampire but a half-breed instead. Some vampires, due to being devoted to Dracula, are reborn alongside his castle when it does and they're three: Carmilla, Elizabeth Bartley (Aka Elizabeth Bathory), and Olrox. Finally, It should be mentioned, that vampirism can be cured by a spell, but only if the victim has been bitten not too long ago.

6. #6Simon Belmont

   Keys: Simon

   Simon Belmont was a member of the ancestral Belmont Clan of vampire hunters and heir to the renowned Vampire Killer whip. He was born around the year 1669 and became one of the most famous vampire hunters of all time.

   At the age of 22 in 1691, he would be given the opportunity to prove himself worthy of his family's legacy. On Easter Day, 100 years after he was defeated by Christopher Belmont, Count Dracula had returned. He was reawakened by a dark order of humans on Easter Day during a dark mass in an abandoned monastery.

   Simon was determined to end the threat of a new reign of terror, and entered Dracula's Castle alone to face the Count. Simon slew Dracula's servants and then faced off against Dracula himself as his ancestors had. Simon defeated Dracula, and then managed to do so again, seven years later, despite being ill due to the effects of a curse Dracula had cast on him.

   After Simon's great effort fighting against Count Dracula, the long-hated Belmont family was reconciled with the common people. Simon was regarded as a life-saver, and people started to look upon him as a hero; little by little, the people started to gather around them. A village, therefore, was formed around the Belmonts. Juste Belmont would later grew up in this environment with his childhood friends Maxim Kischine and Lydie Erlanger. Simon Belmont was active around the year 1691.

7. #7Trevor Belmont

   Keys: Trevor

   Trevor Belmont is a member of the ancestral Belmont Clan of vampire hunters who lived during the 15th century and wielded the holy whip called the vampire killer. Back in his days, because he and his relatives were feared by the people for their supernatural powers, the Belmont Clan lived outside of society. However, it all changed when in 1476, Trevor became renowned for being the first man of the Belmont clan who defeated Count Dracula. It should be mentioned that Trevor, despite being one of the most hardened warriors of the Belmont clan, did not fight alone. He fought alongside Sypha Belnades (A witch from the famous Belnades line of witches, who Trevor would later marry), Grant Danasty (A rogue, who had a vendetta against Dracula), and Alucard (Dracula's son, who opposed his father.), and they all teamed up to destroy Dracula for the first time ever since the dark lord took up his unholy moniker. Finally, once the conflict was over, Hector also met, and lent some assistance to the devil forgemaster called Hector, as he, too, tried to destroy Dracula in a separate conflict. Trevor Belmont was active around the year 1476.

8. #8Grant Danasty

   Keys: Grant, Danasty

   Grant was a noble thief from Wallachia, who was a part of a resistance movement against Dracula, and later assisted Trevor in defeating Dracula for the first time, in the year 1476. Grant tried to fight his way to Dracula, but was defeated and turned into a minion. Trevor managed to defeat Grant's cursed demon form after reaching the top of the Clock Tower, turning him back into a human. Grant then decided to go along with him. Together with Sypha Belnades, a witch, and Alucard, Dracula's son, the four heroes fought their way to Dracula's throne room and through their combined efforts, they managed to subdue him. No one knows what Grant did afterwards, or if his descendants are still actively fighting the forces of darkness. Grant Danasty was active around the year 1476.

9. #9Sypha Belnades

   Keys: Sypha

   Sypha Belnades was a witch who harnessed the energy of spirits to command the power of the elements. Sypha grew up among witches in Wallachia. When she was very young, children of the night, including the vampire Carmilla, darkened the hearts of men and helped spark the great witch trials which resulted in the death of many of Sypha's sister witches. Both of her parents were killed in the process. Sypha escaped and was found wandering near a monastery in Wallachia and was granted protection by the Church. Sypha would remain at that monastery for some time and would train as a monk. She eventually mastered the elements of fire, ice, and lightning by making a deal with spirits. Sypha had a burning desire to destroy anything tainted by darkness who she felt was responsible for mankind's actions against her kind and would become a hunter for the Church, until eventually, in 1476, she would join Trevor Belmont, Grant Danasty and Alucard, as they embarked on a quest to defeat Dracula. After the conflict, Sypha married Trevor Belmont, thus resulting in later members of the Belmont clan inheriting some of her magical ability. Sypha Belnades was active around the year 1476.

10. #10Alucard

    Keys: Alucard, Adrian, Genya, Arikado

    Adrian Fahrenheit Țepeș (better known as Alucard), is the dhampir son of Dracula. As the offspring of an unnatural bond between Dracula and a human woman named Lisa, Adrian had special powers and was destined to be stronger than any human but not potentially as strong as his father. After Lisa was killed, having been mistaken for a witch, Adrian had a crisis of consciousness, since Lisa (On the stake) insisted that he not take his anger at her death out on the humans, as their lives are already full of hardship. With those words, she had a profound influence on Adrian's thinking. His mind wandered as he questioned his father's will. After standing by for as long as he could, he broke away from his father's army and disappeared. Understanding that Dracula was going to impose his wrath on the people, Adrian would turn his efforts toward destroying his father's army, hopefully encouraging him to reconsider. Furthermore, he chose to go under the name "Alucard" –Dracula's name in reverse– to represent that he stood for beliefs opposite those of his father.

    Alucard is an adept swordsman and typically wields one-handed swords. Alucard's other attacks use dark magic. As a shapeshifter, Alucard can change himself into a bat, a wolf, or even mist.

    In 1476, Alucard (No longer calling himself Adrian), joined up with Trevor Belmont, Grant Danasty, and Sypha Belnades, as they defeated Dracula for the first time, with Alucard entering a deep sleep afterwards.

    Then, in 1797, Alucard once again would have to destroy his own father, since the vampire hunter Richter Belmont had momentarily been possessed by the evil wizard shaft. After the conflict, Alucard stayed with the human spellcaster called Maria Renard for an indeterminate amount of time.

    In the modern age of 2035, Alucard goes under the pseudonym "Genya Arikado", and works as a secret member of the Japanese government to combat the threat of vampires and darkness, even going so far as to assist Soma Cruz in rejecting his role as the resurrection of Dracula. Alucard was active around the year 1476, 1797, and 2035, though truthfully, he may have been active at any date later than 1797.

11. #11Hector

    Keys: Hector

    Hector is a former Devil Forgemaster (A mixture a dark general, and a monster creator) who betrayed Dracula in 1476, allowing his fall by the hand of Trevor Belmont. After renouncing his powers, Hector had been leading a normal life when his beloved (Rosaly) was executed as a witch. He later vowed to exact vengeance upon Isaac (The other Devil Forgemaster under Dracula's employ), who cleverly manipulated the witch trial. Eventually, in 1479 Hector would manage to kill Isaac, partly due to the aid of Trevor Belmont, and Hector would later prevent the full resurrection of Dracula. It is not known what became of Hector afterwards, though it's rumored that he stayed with the kind witch Julia Laforeze in her home. Hector was active around the year 1476 and 1479.

12. #12Devil forgemaster

    Keys: Devil forgemaster, Devil forger

    A Devil Forgemaster is a human trained in the dark arts and, akin to their namesake, bears the ability to create and forge demonic and wicked creatures.

    Only two devil forgemasters have been known to exist, Hector and Isaac. They were first seen in 1476, acting as generals for Dracula and they were one of the initial forces within his ranks during his first reign of terror upon Wallachia.

13. #13Isaac

    Keys: Isaac

    Isaac was a Devil Forgemaster (A mixture of a dark general, and a monster creator) who served Dracula loyally. After his fellow forgemaster, Hector, abandoned Dracula and allowed him to be defeated in 1476, Isaac swore vengeance upon his former comrade, and conspired to have Hector's beloved executed under suspicions of being a witch. Hector, seeking vengeance, and also to stop Isaac from resurrecting Dracula, fought Isaac in 1479, a battle which resulted in the death of Isaac. Isaac was active around the year 1476 and 1479, and had a sister called Julia Laforeze (A kind witch).

14. #14Leon Belmont

    Keys: Leon

    Leon, Better known as Leon Belmont, is the forefather of the Belmont clan as we know it (While Leon wasn't the first, he was the first to wield the vampire killer whip that now defines their bloodline). Leon Belmont was a noble, and crusader around the year of 1094 where he fought for the church, alongside his dear friend Mathias Cronqvist. Eventually, Leon's betrothed was kidnapped by a vampire, but sadly, he couldn't rescue his betrothed, instead being forced to mercy kill her rather than having her turn into a vampire. After taking revenge on Walter (The vampire that infected his betrothed with vampirism), Leon found out that all of the events were orchestrated by Mathias, who was on a quest for vengeance against god. Betrayed, heartbroken, yet, burning with heroic spirit to fulfill his betrothed's last wish (To prevent others from dying to the cruelty of accursed creatures), Leon rejected his traitor friend, defeated the wraith known as "Death", then swore to Mathias (Now known as Dracula): "You have become a cursed being and I will never forgive you. This whip and my kinsmen will destroy you someday. From this day on, the Belmont Clan will hunt the night.". Ever since, the Belmont name has lived in glory, being revered as heroes that fight against evil. Leon was active around the year 1094, around the time of the crusades.

15. #15Glyph

    Keys: Glyph, Dominus, Vol, Melio, Custos, Lapiste, Volaticus, Rapidus, Torpor, Acerbatus

    A glyph is essentially, an artistic symbol representing the power that dwells within all things. Each symbol contains a great deal of magical energy, which can be released if one properly channels magic through the glyph itself, thus enabling one to use magical abilities or unique attacks. Some individuals are capable of using the power of glyphs in order to enhance their abilities and/or fight with them, such as Shanoa (Who channels them through the marks on her body) or Albus (Who channels them through his magical pistol called Agartha). It should be mentioned, that by absorbing glyphs, one could theoretically use the power of many creatures, even Dracula (With the glyph called 'Dominus'), though using a glyph of Dracula-level power would be a tremendously risky, and likely suicidal endeavor.

16. #16Shanoa

    Keys: Shanoa

    Shanoa is a young woman, trained and groomed by the Ecclesia organization in order to be one of their finest magical warriors, harnessing the power of magical glyphs, which she can harness through marks on her back and wrists, in order to carry out amazing feats of strength and magical ability. The reason why she was trained like this (With her original name and family likely stricken from the records), was because she was intended to absorb powerful glyphs, and eventually, the one known as Dominus, in order to defeat Dracula himself. She had a brother figure (Called Albus, also a fellow member of Ecclesia), and a mentor and father figure in Barlowe (The man who taught her most of what she knew, and gave her her marks.), up until a disaster in which Albus betrayed them and took her memories and emotions, along with the Dominus glyph. However, Shanoa was deceived, for Albus never betrayed her. The truth is, Dominus is the power of Dracula, and Barlowe wanted to use it to revive Dracula. Albus not only protected Shanoa, but also gave his very life and soul so she could escape death, and then recover her lost emotions. In the end, Shanoa defeated Dracula with the power of Dominus itself, then Albus gave up his soul so she could escape the price of it. No one knows what became of her afterwards, though it's suspected she lived on despite the events in the castle. Shanoa was active around the early 19th century.

17. #17Hellfire

    Keys: Hellfire

    Hellfire is one of Dracula's most recognizable attacks, though Alucard, and possibly, those who are his reincarnation, can also use it. It consists of a technique in which the user vanishes momentarily, before reappearing a short distance away, in order to shoot out fireballs towards an opponent.

18. #18Dark inferno

    Keys: Dark inferno, inferno

    Dark inferno is one of Dracula's most recognizable attacks, though Alucard, and possibly, those who are his reincarnation, can also use it. It consists of a technique in which the user vanishes momentarily, before reappearing a short distance away, in order to two black balls of crackling black electricity towards a foe.

19. #19Death

    Keys: Death, Zaed

    The term 'death' can refer to two things: The loss of life, or, a wraith coincidentally called 'Death'. In the case of the creature known as Death, it is a deity (or wraith), which serves as Dracula's confidante and most trusted servant, often taking the appearance of a stereotypical grim reaper, though sometimes it takes a human guise, and the name 'Zaed'. The being known as death has momentarily been defeated every time someone manages to reach Dracula.

20. #20Lisa

    Keys: Lisa

    Lisa was Alucard's mother, and count Dracula's second wife who he loved dearly, a woman like the Virgin Mary. She created medicines for those people who suffered from the epidemic but she was executed due to the witch trials. She had momentarily awoken the good in Dracula's heart, but upon learning about his wife's death, Dracula vowed revenge on humanity. Lisa's final words to Alucard (spoken while she was on the cross), were: "Do not hate humans. If you cannot live with them, then at least do them no harm, for theirs is already a hard lot." She also mentioned she would love Dracula for all eternity. Lisa was alive some time before 1470.

21. #21Elisabetha

    Keys: Elisabetha

    Elisabetha Cronqvist was the beloved wife of Mathias Cronqvist (Now known as Dracula). Her tragic death plunged him into a terrible and deep melancholy. After the sudden death of Elisabetha, Mathias would become scarred for life. This bitter experience changed his worldview and his own existence, which caused him to declare war against God and become the vampire who would eventually become known as Count Dracula.

22. #22Die monster

    Keys: Die monster

    Richter Belmont, upon confronting Dracula in 1792, once gave him some rather interesting words to begin the encounter, which are often quoted, sometimes out of respect, and other times, mockingly, with the words now known as the 'Die monster' speech. This was the famous exchange: [Richter: Die monster. You don't belong in this world! Dracula: It was not by my hand that I am once again given flesh. I was called here by humans who wish to pay me tribute. Richter: Tribute!?! You steal men's souls and make them your slaves! Dracula: Perhaps the same could be said of all religions... Richter: Your words are as empty as your soul! Mankind ill needs a savior such as you!

    Dracula: What is a man? (throws his wine glass to the floor) A miserable little pile of secrets. But enough talk... Have at you!]

23. #23Wygol village

    Keys: Wygol village, Wygol

    Wygol village is a small village located in the countryside of Transylvania. Father Nikolai founded this sleepy village sometime in the early 19th century, and others soon followed. For a brief moment, danger lurks in the surrounding wilderness and threatened Wygol's tranquility, up until Shanoa rescued the villagers, and then ended the source of the menace, Dracula, who had been revived, but only briefly. The former headquarters of Ecclesia are not far. The village does not have much people in it, reaching a total of 13 individuals, and unbeknownst to them, they all have faint traces of the blood of Belmont in their veins: -Father Nikolai (The founder of Wygol Village). -Abram (A healer which was formerly a thief). -Aeon (A chef, with terrible taste and cooking). -Anna (A young girl, daughter of Irina and sister to Serge. She is psychically sensitive, and relies on her cat to ward off spiritual posessions.). -Daniela (An old woman with memories of fighting monsters with her grandfather). -Eugen (A blacksmith, not one for small talk, though he's a good man). -George (A musician, quirky). -Irina (A robust, and motherly baker, mother of Anna and Serge). -Jacob (A middle aged shopkeeper). -Laura (A beautiful and elegant Jeweler, in a relationship with Marcel) -Marcel (A reporter, photographer, and journalist). -Monica (A seamstress, skilled, and with a heart of gold, but lacking confidence). -Serge (A hyperactive young boy, son of Irina, and brother to Anna)

24. #24History

    Keys: history, previous events

    In general, humanity's history has progressed normally, though the threat of darkness has been a constant concern, even if it's not in the public eye.

    Dracula, officially, has only been active in: 1476 (until he was killed by Trevor Belmont), 1697 (revived by cultists, killed by Simon Belmont, not once but twice), 1792 (Revived by the sorcerer 'Shaft', then killed by Richter Belmont.), 1797 (Revived by Shaft again, killed by Alucard this time.), early 19th century (Revived by the traitorous Barlowe, killed by Shanoa), 1917 (Revived by Elizabeth Bartley, killed by the duo of Eric Lecarde and John Morris), 1944 (Revived by Death, killed by the duo of Charlotte Aulin and Jonathan Morris), then finally 1999 (Revived by unknown party, killed by Julius Belmont).

    In the times of old, Dracula's name was synonymous with heresy and terror, and much of Europe, particularly countries and territories near the area of Transylvania, suffered due to the consequences of his actions. The eastern orthodox church was also an influential part of early history, since they kept a close eye on the darkness, sending out warriors to stop it when necessary.

    In modern times, after 1999, Dracula was 'defeated' for good, since the power of his castle was sealed in a lunar eclipse, and the soul of Dracula was left wandering, eventually reincarnating in the form of the young man Soma Cruz, born in 2017, now 18 years old, who has the potential to become the dark lord, but refuses the call of darkness, instead fighting for good. In the modern age, many people believe that Dracula, and his dark history, are myths, or exaggerated tales meant to serve as an allegory for other more realistic events.

25. #25The worldconstant

    Keys: the world, outside, society

    The existence of monsters, demons, vampires, and other supernatural is known to humanity, but mainly to those related to the church, in positions of power, followers of darkness, or those affected by tragedies inflicted. The consequences of Dracula's actions can mainly be felt in Europe, with a particular focus on Romania (more specifically, Transylvania). Rumors of supernatural creatures roaming the wilds are common, though in the modern age (if applicable), frequently dismissed. During the years in which Dracula was most active, the church too, had an increased presence in people's lives, particularly the eastern orthodox church, who had both hunters, witches, and holy soldiers at the ready, just in case. Supernatural events are not exclusive to one area, however; monsters have been spotted rarely in parts of Italy, forgotten submerged ruins with odd creatures exist in Greece, Cursed remnants of war exist in abandoned munition factories in Germany. Not just that, other cursed castles and fortresses exist: Walter's castle (Now ruined, it's the castle that belonged to Walter Bernhard, a vampire who Dracula stole part of his powers from.), Castle Proserpina (Located in Whiteby, England. It belonged to Elizabeth Bartley, and she once tried to resurrect Dracula from it.), "With light"'s fortress (a castle built by a cult called 'With light'. It was built to be similar to Dracula's castle. May be in Russia, or in a snowy part of Europe), and finally, Versailles Palace (It's not a den of evil per se, but in the past, monsters have been seen in it.). It is known, that the people capable of vanquishing darkness are typically the Belmont clan, Alucard, The Morris clan, the Lecarde clan, wielders of the Glyph weaponry, Belnades descendants, Virtuous witches, or some other incredibly powerful yet righteous being, such as an independent werewolf or a reincarnated vampire.
