An aspect of Chaos that is the source behind Draucla's powers.

Background

Chaos is a looming threat across the Castlevania series, with a face of itself being the central antagonist in Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow. This dark, primordial entity originates from the chaotic essence within humanity itself and serves as the primary source of Dracula’s tremendous power.

As a force opposed to divine order, Chaos has the unique ability to appoint a Dark Lord by granting its chosen individual the Power of Dominance. This power allows the Dark Lord to control monsters and influence those humans susceptible to negative emotions, often aligning them with darker intentions. In the year 1476, Dracula gained this dark power through a pact with an Evil God, allowing him to unleash vengeance upon humanity and pursue a campaign to eradicate mankind.

Due to his connection to Dracula’s soul, Chaos later chose Soma Cruz to become the next Dark Lord, setting the stage for a dramatic confrontation. Soma, realizing this dark fate, embarked on a journey to enter the Chaotic Realm, determined to resist his destiny and rid himself of Chaos’s influence. Along the way, he encountered Julius Belmont, a famed vampire hunter, and the two fought. Soma asked Julius to make him a promise: if he could not escape the darkness, Julius would have to end his life.

Eventually, despite Chaos’s formidable strength and efforts to overpower him, Soma succeeded in defeating this eldritch entity, breaking the hold of darkness on his soul. With Chaos’s defeat, Dracula’s Castle, which had been sealed within a solar eclipse, was finally released from its celestial prison and disintegrated, leaving no trace of its ominous presence.

As Soma returned to the earthly realm, the descent felt almost like waking from a long, strange dream. In his mind, he heard the voices of his friends—Yoko, Hammer, Julius, and Genya—offering words of encouragement and farewell, supporting him as he returned to his human life. Upon fully regaining his senses, Soma found himself safe and at peace in Mina’s arms back at the Hakuba Shrine, leaving behind the shadows of the Chaotic Realm.

Powers and Techniques

Abstract Existence (Conceptual, Absolute Abstraction; Chaos is the embodiment and root of all things chaos, being responsible for all things chaotic in the verse, along with trying to make sure there is always a Dark Lord. Human death itself on comprises a part of chaos), Bestowal (Is the source of every ability gathered from Creatures of the Night, and spreads further into other characters such as Walter Bernhard, Alucard, Dracula, Death, etcetera)

Is a Creature of the Night, which gives:

Immortal Metaphysical Aspect; Creatures of the Night can continue to exist even as a spirit and use their spirit form to form bodies out of inanimate material around them), Acausality (Causality Immunity; All immortal beings disrupt the flow of time according to Aeon. With their souls being completely free from time. The biggest hindrance to humans when attempting to accomplish something is their limited lifespans, a limitation that cannot be overcome, however, dwellers of the darkness do not apply to the laws of the human world, ignoring such limitations), Free Will (Creatures of the Night do not follow the hand of God and instead choose of their own free will), Empowerment (Creatures of the night are empowered by the night, becoming stronger when it's night time), Evolution (Creatures of chaos can inherit evil natures awakening into stronger enemies with new abilities and less weaknesses), Resurrection (Self-Resurrection; Creatures of chaos can be brought back to life from the power of hate.

It is noted by Lucy that the "vital soul" of a monster is the cause of the grimoire chaos. Their vital souls are causing the grimoires contents to be overwritten changing history to things such as Jonathan Morris is now at a disadvantage in battle, or Charlotte fading from existence due to them messing with the history of the Grimoires, Maria starting to fade because Richter's history is being rewritten, where if the contents of the book change the creatures magic will keep growing and eventually overflow into reality, causing the grimoire to fall into chaos and even more monsters materializing into the real world. The text alterations also make the monsters stronger. With the real world and world of grimoires being one and the same, compared to the like of Brauner's painting worlds that are quantum multi-layered spaces requiring understandings of theories such as "Curse Amplification"), Law Manipulation (Creatures of Chaos can alter grimoires, which do not adhere to the laws of reality), Power Modification (Creatures of the night alterations of the Grimoire can greatly limit the powers of those far stronger than them, such as Jonathan Morris' power being limited due to the alterations.

After being defeated by Trevor and his friends, Dracula left a demonic curse that enshrouded all of Europe in misery and torment, this curse keeps festering even if Dracula dies, where Hector needed to put all of his life-force and energy into dispelling the curse, greatly tiring him to the point that he was ready to die in the collapse of the Castle if Julia did not come rescue him. Along with this, even with the curse being removed, the curse was far too deep within people, making its mark hard to leave them, with some characters having it where only death could erase the curse), Disease Manipulation (The demonic curse caused a hideous plague and dire famine), Morality Manipulation (The demonic curse had people's hearts turn black and murderous, where the weak were slain without pity. The curse gave Hector an immense thirst for vegeance, attempting to make him kill Isaac so that he could possess his body.

Shanoa with the dominus is using a power of Dracula's, where Aeon notes that power is governed by time. With time in Castlevania being so potent that not even eternity can withstand time, along with even artificial life being subject to the laws of time), Text Manipulation & Plot Manipulation (Passive; Vital Souls are all just a part of Dracula's powers, where is noted by Lucy that the "vital soul" of a monster is the cause of the grimoire chaos where creatures of the night's dark powers allowed them to rewrite the Grimoires to strengthen their dark powers greatly, along with their vital souls causing the grimoires contents to be overwritten changing history to things such as Jonathan Morris is now at a disadvantage in battle, or Charlotte fading from existence due to them messing with the history of the Grimoires, Maria starting to fade because Richter's history is being rewritten, where if the contents of the book change the creatures magic will keep growing and eventually overflow into reality, causing the grimoire to fall into chaos and even more monsters materializing into the real world. The text alterations also make the monsters stronger. With the real world and world of grimoires being one and the same, compared to the like of Brauner's painting worlds that are quantum multi-layered spaces requiring understandings of theories such as "Curse Amplification". Death was going to use Dracula's magic to rewrite Dracula's defeat to Trevor making it where Dracula defeats Trevor Belmont instead where Dracula would go on living in the rewritten grimoire with each grimoire being its own world and the grimoires influence extends into reality).

Resistance to Extreme Heats (Unaffected by moving so fast he catches on fire), Extrasensory Perception (Dark Lords are incapable of being sensed by the likes of Death), Attack Reflection (His reincarnation can attack and harm Graham Jones, where he's absorbed the power of the castle, and inherited Dracula's powers, where Dracula's mere rib bone reflects all projectiles back), Darkness Manipulation & Hell Manipulation (Dracula has a natural resistance to the darkness element.

Even while greatly weakened, when the Aurora was used on Dracula, he greatly resisted it, requiring two master magicians to affect him. Dracula's power is so great that very few magical items can truly hold his magic within a seal, requiring the usage of an entire library worth of grimoires in order to truly seal away just his magic alone. The only reason Brauner was able to seal away Dracula was due to him not reviving completely otherwise his seals would be easily broken by Dracula's power), Fire Manipulation (Dracula is naturally strongly resistant to fire based attacks), Electricity Manipulation (Dracula is naturally strongly resistant to thunder based attacks), Poison Manipulation (Dracula is naturally immune to poison based attacks), Spatial Manipulation (Brauner using Dracula's power spatially segregated Dracula from the castle), Power Modification, Information Manipulation, Text Manipulation & Plot Manipulation (Dracula's magic and powers have no limits posed on it from the grimoires where heroes summoned from the catalogue are unable to stray too far from its contents and have limited actions they can do having summoned heroes have their powers greatly limited from their true strength), Fate Manipulation & Death Manipulation (Death serves Dracula with unfailing loyalty, where Death is noted to govern the fate of death, being noted to have the power to govern the end of all living things, and can use his scythes to kill abstractions such as distance and sound. Death decides who lives and who dies), Immortality Negation (The Vampire Killer is unable to strip Dracula of his immortality whereas the Vampire Killer can render immortal skeleton death gods like Death, mortal, having him bleed from attacks, giving him mortality as shown when Death dies to his own scythe cutting off his head and having blood spurt out, something not possible as a skeleton, and can kill Death to the point that he requires Mathias to survive in order for him to rise from the dead), Power Mimicry (One who copies the Power of Dominance requires their soul to withstand the power that it holds, being unable to control it and having the demons under their dominance come out of them)

• Four Energy Orbs: The core launches four small energy orbs, each targeting a different corner of the room. These orbs gradually home in on Soma, inflicting heavy damage upon contact. However, Soma can destroy the orbs by dealing enough damage to them before they reach him.
• Circle of Needles: The core envelops itself with a ring of sharp needles, which it then releases outward in rapid succession, each needle launching one by one in a circular pattern.
• Skeletal Serpent: A massive skeletal serpent continuously slithers around the room, inflicting heavy damage upon contact with Soma. Occasionally, it will pause briefly and release a large energy ball, similar to the core's smaller orbs. This energy ball ricochets off the chamber walls before exiting the screen. The serpent is immune to all forms of damage and frequently targets Soma directly.
• Four Eyes: Four demonic eyes are positioned in each corner of the room. While they do not possess any direct attacks, making physical contact with them inflicts significant damage on Soma. Defeating each eye will cause it to burn away, resulting in a reduction of the main core's defensive stat for a set duration.

Other

Standard Tactics: Chaos merely cares to ensure there is a Dark Lord for there to be a God and maintain a balance, through this measure it will bestow aspects of itself onto creatures and look for a Dark Lord.

Weaknesses: Nothing notable.

Standard Tactics: It starts by absorbing the soul of all things in its presence and proceeds to use abilities from this, afterwards it will shoot energy projectiles and send out multiple spikes, transforming into weird creatures to attack its opponent.

Weaknesses

• Soul Weaknesses: With Basilisk, offensive strength decreases.
• Creature of the Night Weaknesses: Creatures of the night become weaker when exposed to the morning sun. Garlic significantly weakens creatures of the night, and causes demons to die if its placed on the ground. If a vital soul is defeated, the grimoire will revert back to its original content.
• Standard Vampire Weaknesses: After a vampire is sufficiently weakened, the sunlight can kill them. Otherwise Vampires can stand out in the sunlight just fine. Though some weaker vampires can have the sun burn them overtime, killing them. Oak Stakes are able to break through the magic of a weakened vampire. Defeating a vampire will stop the effects of someone they have bitten, but only before they've turned. This is shown in Harmony of Dissonance where through Juste killing Dracula's Wraith, the bite marks on Lydie have vanished. Vampires reflections do not appear on mirrors, making them easier to identify.
• Unique Weaknesses: Nothing notable.

Note

• The reason for this profile handling both Chaos the concept and Chaos the boss from Aria of Sorrow is due to the fact that they both have the exact same name and the boss is merely a facet of the true Chaos so it would be redundant to make separate profiles rather then just compiling the two into one profile.
• Contrary to popular belief, holy attacks and the whips in Castlevania can affect and harm people that aren't apart of the creatures of the night. Leon's doppelganger can use holy water and holy attacks against him in this fight along with the alchemy whip despite Leon being a pure and noble warrior. Simon's doppelganger can harm him with the vampire killer, despite Simon being a noble hero. Holy Water even works and harms enemies such as the "Holy Armor", a knight who has natural holy powers. Corrupted enemies such as Charlie Vincent, use holy water attacks on Carrie and Reinhardt.

Trivia

• Chaos is one of the three enemies in Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow that doesn't drop any souls, along with Julius and Graham.
• In The Dracula X Chronicles, during the final battle, when Dracula enters his third form, a large eye in a black void can be seen through a large, cracked hole in the background. The eye may belong to Chaos, signifying Dracula's usage of his full power. However, this is just speculation.
  • The same could be speculated for the final battle in Circle of the Moon, as a similar black void can be seen in the background while fighting against Dracula's final form. However, like the above, this is unconfirmed.
• According to the novel Akumajō Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisōkyoku, Olrox seeks to control both Chaos and Humanity.
• Chaos originally had a planned enemy list entry which showed a picture of it not used in the game. This entry was eventually dropped from the final version, although it still remains in the game's files and can be viewed through hacking.
