Background

Death, also known as the Grim Reaper, is a key antagonist in Konami's Castlevania series. Born from Chaos, which itself emerged from the malice within human hearts, Death serves as Count Dracula’s right-hand figure. Typically appearing near the end of the hero's journey—often in the Clock Tower—he challenges them before they face Dracula. Occasionally, Death is the first of Dracula's main servants the protagonist encounters, as seen in Castlevania: Rondo of Blood, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, and Castlevania: The Arcade. Notably, he appears in every game except Castlevania: The Adventure and Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge.

When figures like Shaft, Elizabeth Bartley, or Carmilla lead Dracula’s resurrection, Death may take an equal or lesser role in Dracula's ranks. Two of his closest subordinates, Slogra and Gaibon, report directly to him. He is also known to acknowledge and respect courageous and skilled opponents.

Mastering dark arts, Death can summon souls of the dead and defeat powerful foes. As a chaotic, malevolent entity, Death resists dark-based attacks but is vulnerable to holy weapons like the Vampire Killer.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Death’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Castlevania: Lament of Innocence This mysterious being forges an alliance with Mathias Cronqvist – who later becomes known as Dracula – in 1094. Initially, Death pretended to be a servant to Walter Bernhard, owner of the Ebony Stone. However, he later betrayed Walter after Leon Belmont defeated him with the newly forged Vampire Killer. It is revealed that Mathias had the Crimson Stone, a stone much more powerful than the Ebony Stone. With Walter defeated, Mathias gained access to Walter's Ebony Stone, giving him both of the vampire's treasures. To add insult to injury, Mathias used the Crimson Stone to suck out Walter's soul and place it inside the stone. The soul became a power source to fuel Mathias's dark desires. Crushed by Mathias's turn to the dark forces of evil, Leon was ready to slay his former friend when Death arrived and challenged him in the final showdown of the game. Even though Death was defeated, Mathias made his escape after some parting words with Leon. Although Death expressed disbelief for being beaten by Leon, as well as learning about him possessing the means to destroy not just vampires, but anything tied to them, he nonetheless assured the latter that he could not be permanently killed as long as Mathias remained alive. With Mathias gone, Leon swore that no matter where he should go, the Belmont Clan would hunt him and his kind down forever. Since then, Death has proven to be the Count's most loyal and devoted servant. Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse In 1476, Death returned alongside Dracula to terrorize the Transylvanian countryside. He was eventually encountered and defeated by Trevor Belmont, Sypha Belnades, Grant Danasty, and the then-recently defected Alucard at the Castle Entrance. However, this would not be the last of him. Castlevania: Curse of Darkness After Trevor Belmont had successfully defeated Dracula, the Count placed a curse on all of Europe, with the intent that the corruption and misery bred from it would bring about his resurrection. To speed up the process, a mysterious priest by the name of Zead came across Hector and appeared friendly enough with his wanting to help him defeat his nemesis, Isaac. What Hector didn't know was that the priest was actually Death in disguise. However, his disguise did not fool the time-traveling Saint Germain, who knew that if either Devil Forgemaster, Hector or Isaac, should fall, then the Dark Lord could be revived. Both fight, and in spite of Saint Germain getting the upper hand during their first tussle (and mentioning he would return until Zead surrendered), Zead manages to trick him into the Eneomaos Machine Tower and freezes his powers until he is defeated in combat by Hector. After this, Saint Germain leaves the timeline, after asking Hector to give Zead his sarcastic regards. In the reborn castle of Dracula, Hector fights and kills Isaac, but does not fall prey to the curse. Before he knows it, the body of Isaac is whisked away into a coffin by Zead. He had originally planned on using Hector as the host for Dracula when he succumbed to the curse, but because Hector rejected the curse at the last moment, he is forced to settle with Isaac's corpse. When Zead removes a scythe from his sleeve, it is then that Hector realizes who Zead really is. Shedding his disguise, Death battles Hector, only to be defeated by the Forgemaster, expressing disbelief that he was defeated by a human. Castlevania In 1691, Death returned alongside Dracula to Transylvania. Trevor's descendant, Simon Belmont, encountered him inside the dungeon of the castle and ultimately defeated him. Castlevania II: Simon's Quest After Simon had successfully defeated Dracula, the Count placed a curse on him, forcing the latter to find several relics of the deceased Count and destroy them in order to end the curse on both him and Transylvania as a whole. Death was charged with guarding the Eye of Vlad at the Brahm's Mansion. Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance In this time around, Death wanders through "Dracula's Castle" searching for his Lord while trying to understand where his master has disappeared to. He met with Juste inside the Marble Corridor and implies that, while the castle might technically be Dracula's castle, the actual master of it was not Dracula himself before taking his leave. Death soon realizes thanks to Juste that due to Maxim Kischine's eagerness to find and destroy Dracula's body parts the same way Simon Belmont did about half a century ago, he inadvertently had awoken the spirit of Dracula. This led to Maxim slowly being taken over by the spirit of the Dark Lord and the split of Dracula's Castle into two different castles. Death recognizes that Maxim's body would make a suitable host for the resurrection of Dracula and soon seeks to prevent Juste Belmont from finding his friend and freeing him from Dracula's control. He also tries to locate Lydie, eventually finding her with Juste's unwitting help and takes her, viewing her as a necessary sacrifice to ensure Maxim becomes Dracula and thus complete the castle. He then fought Juste in an attempt to prevent him from interfering. He ultimately is defeated, although he makes clear that the castle would inevitably merge in the future. Castlevania: Rondo of Blood Upon returning alongside Dracula in 1792, Death briefly tested Richter Belmont as the latter attempted to race over to Aljiba as it was under siege by Dracula's forces. After gauging Richter via throwing his scythe and summoning a giant skull and Richter parrying both attacks, he then took his leave, although not before vowing that he won't hold back in their next encounter. True to his word, Death encountered Richter aboard a ghost ship and fought him in an intense battle. Ultimately, he was defeated, with his accidentally beheading himself after he threw his scythe in the air from being stunned. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night After the dark priest Shaft's successful resurrection of Dracula, the Count was swiftly defeated by Richter Belmont in 1792. However, due to a sinister curse placed on him by Shaft, Richter was slowly being possessed by an evil spirit. Five years later, in 1797, Richter Belmont mysteriously disappeared while Dracula's Castle appeared once again. This time, Dracula's son, Alucard, awakens from his self-inflicted permanent slumber when he senses that something is terribly amiss. When he enters Dracula's Castle, Alucard is confronted by Death. Since Alucard is Dracula's son, Death gives him a chance to cease his attack and turn back. Upon refusing, Death steals all of his equipment and scatters it throughout the entire castle, although not before warning that this will not be their final encounter. Later, when Alucard encounters Death again, the Grim Reaper notes that he has given ample warning, and with Alucard not backing down, he engages him in combat, suffering defeat at the hands of Dracula's son. Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia Even though there are no specific cutscenes with Death in Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia, he does serve as the boss of the Mechanical Tower, in an attempt to kill Shanoa before she absorbs one of three key Glyphs that would allow her passage to Dracula's domain. It should also be noted that if the player is defeated in this fight, Death will say that the character's soul has burned itself out, one of the rare instances of a boss actually commenting about a playable character's death, if any. Castlevania: Bloodlines In 1917, Death guarded Elizabeth Bartley from both John Morris and Eric Lecarde, presumably in an attempt to allow her to revive Dracula. However, he ultimately fell to them. Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin In Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin, Death once again wanders through the castle seeking his Lord and Master, Dracula. Jonathan Morris and Charlotte Aulin first run into him in the Great Stairway. Jonathan believes that he was serving Brauner, but it turns out unlike the other monsters in the castle, Death retains full loyalty towards Dracula. From them he learns of the interloper taking the role of Lord of the Castle for himself and rebuffs the idea of anyone except Dracula controlling the castle, saying that it was an odd thing to say. He does not even try to fight the heroes during this encounter, even hinting at a possible alliance to kill Brauner, albeit with different aims in mind. However, he is rebuffed rudely by Jonathan and leaves, but not before he leaves a snide remark telling Jonathan that he is nowhere near as strong as his father. Later on, he is reluctantly goaded by Jonathan to battle the duo in the castle's Clock Tower. He leaves the battle when his energy is exhausted, saying he has other affairs to handle, although not before inferring that he's only sparing the two because they themselves still have a "role" to accomplish, and also making clear this was not to be their final encounter. Near the end of the game, after Jonathan and Charlotte defeat Brauner, Death barges into his room and slices through the usurper with a swing of his scythe to finish him off, reinstating the castle's proper master, Dracula. When Jonathan and Charlotte pursue him, they find the newly risen Dracula. Ready to take him out, Jonathan is blocked by Death, who has come to Dracula's aid. In a surprising turn of events, Death and Dracula decide to team up for their battle against the two young heroes. When either Death's or Dracula's life is depleted, Death screams "My power! Use my power!" and at this point, Dracula holds out both hands and uses Soul Steal, absorbing Death's soul and transforms into True Dracula. Akumajō Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisōkyoku After the ultimate defeat of Dracula in 1999, Death remained with the castle in the eclipse and fought Soma Cruz there in 2035. He would fight him again the following year in Celia's castle. Death is mysteriously revived once more during 2037, in a part of Wallachia where he encounters Dracula's Castle, but realizing neither his master nor a Dark Lord are present, the event confuses him as he believes his resurrection in these circumstances impossible. He travels to Japan in order to seek Soma, whom he reveals himself to at the stairs of Hakuba Shrine after Mina Hakuba departs for the shrine. Initially, Soma is restless but Death assures his intentions are not hostile toward him or Mina. Death asks Soma if he would assume his role as a Dark Lord, but Soma refuses, being comfortable with his current human life. Death then wonders if the current events are really Soma's doing, but Soma does not understand what Death means and demands answers. However, Death replies that since Soma isn't willing to be his master then he has no obligation to answer and departs. Death returns to the castle where he notices humans in the castle, at the same time realizing the monsters are not hostile toward these humans this confuses Death even further as he looks for his master. He finds Slogra and Gaibon whom he orders to report the current situation. Neither of them respond but strangely attack Death for no reason. Although surprised, Death does not take the insolence kindly and destroys both of them, but he quickly notices that neither of them ever let a scream of pain out, confusing him even further. Death ventures further into the castle finally meeting Dracula's former servant Olrox inside the castle. Olrox confirms that the current set of events are of his doing and that the humans in the castle are the remnants of Graham's cult that has bowed to follow the vampire. Death mocks Olrox if he wants to play at replacing Dracula, but Olrox merely states he wants to control both humans and Chaos out of curiosity of what can be done by doing so, emphasizing that Chaos is born of humans and that Death is born out of Chaos, therefore if he can control humans then Chaos could potentially disappear. Death declares Olrox a traitor and the two of them clash with Death summoning his sickles and Olrox summoning bats, both of them canceling each other. Olrox goes to the courtyard and Death follows with the two clashing without any clear advantage, but then Olrox lures Death into a trap as a magic formation made by Graham's followers summons a large bloody hand that entraps Death depriving him of his power and taking it with him. Death remains trapped and weakened until his soul encounters the damaged body of Curtis Lang that had been shot mercilessly by Graham's cult multiple times and at the verge of dying. Death encounters Curtis whose only wish is for the safety of his partner Michelle Danasty. Death then takes possession of the young man's dying body, which is later found by Michelle and restored back to health by Hammer after he uses a potion on his body, seemingly with memory loss. The two venture into the castle with Michelle destroying the horde of zombies while he remains unfazed by them. Michelle continuously tries to protect him and encourage him to remember although he only has vague hints, his change of personality and attitude worrying Michelle the more they explore. The two enter the Clock Tower where they are attacked by a harpy that Death kills easily using Gale Force by slashing it repeatedly. Michelle is amazed that "Curtis" can use a high-level spell and attributes it to Julius's training. "Curtis" remains mostly quiet and keeps advancing, with Michelle fearing that the person in from him isn't Curtis anymore and puzzled at the fact the harpy never screamed in pain. Finally "Curtis" and Michelle reach Dracula's throne. Michelle wonders why "Curtis" hasn't used his Holy Whip and has him touch the whip thinking it may trigger some memories back, but "Curtis" warns her that he cannot hold a holy item in his current state and much to Michelle's surprise his hand burns, the duo then encounter Olrox with Death recovering his memories and Michelle learning the truth behind Curtis. Death has Michelle stand aside out of respect for Curtis' wish and fights against Olrox once more. Olrox explains that the current castle is a copy made by Graham's cult made up possible through the brief eclipse in the area that allowed Legion and the Puppet Master to be summoned, with Legion being the backbone of the castle while the Puppet Master created puppet copies of the castle's monsters. Olrox further explains that the entire scheme was possible solely out of Graham's cult wish to follow his master finding humans interesting and the thrill of fighting Death equal to when he faced Alucard. Olrox summons the bloody hand once more but Death is able to put an end to it, forcing Olrox to reveal that the castle is a giant Legion and forming a massive body out of Legion's parts. As the battle escalated to inhuman proportions, Michelle was paralyzed with fear, but honoring her training and Curtis' wish for her to be happy, Michelle decided to fight using her athletic abilities to reach the ceiling of the room and shot an arrow at Olrox during a brief opening which allowed Death to overpower Olrox and defeat him and Legion. With Olrox beaten, the castle began to crumble. Michelle asked Death if Curtis would not be able to come back but Death didn't really respond. As he disappears he states that while they had a common purpose this time around they are essentially still enemies and leaves. Curtis is eventually revealed to be alive and Michelle theorizes that Curtis was able to live because Death possessed his body while he was still alive, and also imagining that perhaps Death did something to his body. She contemplated how Death is a creature unlike any other she has seen. Grimoire of Souls Genya Arikado, or more accurately, Alucard, encountered Death inside the Grimoire of Souls while trying to locate the core monster inside the book that was causing the Grimoire and others to release monsters into the real world. He fought Death, although because Arikado was forced to utilize an avatar to access the book and thus was in a comparably weak state, Death subdued him, and also implied that the book was making Death stronger and was aware that he was inside the Grimoire. This led Arikado to suspect that someone was causing the chaos. It was later revealed in Chapter 7 that Death was the true mastermind behind Elgos and the events of the Grimoire's chaos, so he could revive his master. Chapter 9 further reveals that he disguised himself as Seward, even crafting the identity beforehand, specifically to manipulate everyone into unwittingly aiding in Dracula's resurrection. He ultimately succeeded in Chapter 10, and after Dracula, due to just freshly being resurrected, was bested by Alucard and the other Grimoire copies, Death offered his soul to ensure Dracula powered up, with Dracula stating he won't forget Death's loyalty to him.

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.

Resistance to Dracula's Castle's Abilities (Death is able to exist within Dracula's castle without any adverse effects).

Equipment

• Scythe: His scythe he uses to reap souls, along with this, he can use it to spawn multiple scythes to attack opponents, enlarge it, and ignore distance altogether.

---

Notable Techniques

• Deathscythe: One of Death's signature abilities is summoning numerous scythes or sickles to aid him in battle or create a distraction while he focuses on reaping. Death can generate scythes of various sizes—small, medium, or large—that cover extensive areas. Typically, the summoning is automatic, filling the room with a barrage of sickles from every direction. However, when Death fights his opponent directly, he summons the scythes more purposefully, aiming them at his target (as seen in Super Castlevania IV and Castlevania: Rondo of Blood). Only two humans have used this spell: Hector, by crafting Death’s Scythe, and Soma Cruz, who commands Death’s soul, consuming 10 MP per second.

• Dead Tempest: Death has only used this spell on two occasions: against Leon Belmont and Hector. This fire-based ability unleashes a wave of flames that engulfs enemies, covering a broad area with its intense heat.

• Spirit Summon: At times, Death can call forth various spirits in different forms to attack and overwhelm his foes. One of his frequent summons includes his own personal minions.

• Teleportation: Death can teleport in several ways to disorient and distract his opponents. He often uses long-range teleportation by opening a portal of darkness or slicing open a portal.

• Dimensional Rift: Death can create a dimensional rift to disorient and injure his enemies. This alternate realm greatly enhances his powers.

• Physical/Spiritual Shift: During his battle with Jonathan and Charlotte, Death demonstrates his control over physical tangibility by shifting between realms. When fully present in the physical world, Death becomes vulnerable to regular attacks but is nearly immune to energy and mental assaults. The reverse applies when he retreats into the spiritual realm.

• Astral Chains: Also in his encounter with Jonathan and Charlotte, Death summons chains ending in metallic hands from multiple portals. These hands can link together, forming a loose cage that creates his kill zone, where he typically throws his scythe to spin and ricochet within. The chained hands can also strike and bind enemies, setting up for a lethal execution from Death. Once bound, escape is impossible without outside assistance.

Scythe Combos

Neutral Combo

Directional Combo

Jumping Attack

Corpse Hunt

Death uses his scythe to make a spinning scythe attack around him and finishes it with a forward charge while his scythe covers him.

Teleport Dodge

Death dashes forward and teleports a couple of meters.

Spinning Scythe

Death throws the scythe and it spins around him.

The Reaping

Death throws the scythe, which home sin on the opponent. It has great range and lasts longer when the button is held.

Twin Sickles

Death throws two sickles at his opponent.

Orb of Gahena

Death charges and fires a black orb that freezes the opponent.

Judgment

Death grabs the opponent and hits them onto his scythe, he then pulls through them and follow up with a slash.

The Gates of Hell

Death summons fallen souls to seize and hold his opponent in place. The victim perceives an illusion of Death, which disappears, leaving them confused and taunted. Death then announces that the Gates of Hell are open. He transforms his hook into a blade, stabs the victim, dislodges their head, and "swallows" their soul. This act implies that the Gates of Hell may be through Death's jaws, enabling him to consume the souls of his defeated foes.

---

Other

Standard Tactics: Much similar to Dracula, Death will not immediately go to fight his foe, instead waiting for them to reach his premises and come to attack them. As he governs life and death, he is easily able to kill a foe, however, if one resists that, Death will utilize his scythe along with other magic attacks.

Weaknesses

• 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.
• Unique Weaknesses: Death is weak to holy related attacks.

Note

• 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.
• Death much like Dracula and other Creatures of Chaos, gets stronger and faster than they were before, such as when Death appeared before Soma in the Dawn of Sorrow novel, with Soma noting he was much faster than the last time he faced him, with this novel being only a year after Dawn of Sorrow. Due to this, Death is split into keys depending on his time period.
• There are many arguments over whether or not Death is actually Death itself or a symbol of Death. This comes from one portion of the Akumajo Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisoukyoku novel where Olrox states that Death is a symbol of death and that "death has extended his arm on you", however there is some missing context to this. Firstly, Olrox during this part of the battle is trash-talking Death. He says things like how he doesn't intend to control Death's soul in the same fight. Later on when they fight again, Olrox notes that "death" really exists and proceeds to refer to Death as purely "death" and not a symbol of death. Death himself states to Michelle that he is death and that human death only comprises a part of chaos. In Castlevania The Arcade he is outright called Death. Some people will also use the translators statement that there is Death the monster and Death the death, however this is a fan translator with no real say or hold over the Castlevania canon or continuity.

Trivia

• In Japanese mythology, a "death god" (shinigami) is the name for a type of being (of many) rather than the western idea of a single Grim Reaper. It is noteworthy, however, that Death is called as such in a minority of games, even the Japanese versions, making it possible that Death is, in fact, the sole Grim Reaper from western folklore.
• Often, Death's HP/EXP values only contain numbers four (4), or they are multiples of four in some obvious way. This is a Japanese-language-specific pun, as the pronunciation of the number "four" and the word for "death" are phonetically identical ("shi").
• The fact Death is mostly fought in or near a clock tower may be because the inevitability of death in all living creatures is usually referred to as "a matter of time".
• In Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge, when the player walks across the bridge that leads to Dracula, several statues that resemble Death can be seen in the background.
• Aside from his role as a boss in Castlevania: Bloodlines, the April 1994 issue of Beep! MegaDrive implies that Drolta Tzuentes may have actually been an alias for Death.
• Death's appearance planned in Castlevania: Resurrection resembles the pale horse in Gustave Doré's painting Death on the Pale Horse.
• In Castlevania: Circle of the Moon, the game has been observed to occasionally crash after Death is defeated when his second form is sucked into the black hole. This is especially prevalent when playing a ROM of the game on PC via an emulator, sometimes rendering the game impossible to continue due to crashing occurring either consistently or always.
• In Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance, Death's second form is very similar to Ouroboros from the Strider series.
• Despite his loyalties to Dracula, Death fights Soma Cruz in both games he has appeared in, even though, technically, Soma is the reincarnation of Dracula.
  • In the light novel Akumajō Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisōkyoku, Death explains he will serve anyone who is willing to heed the calling of Chaos and take up Dracula's name. It is possible that Death wanted Soma dead to allow the power of Chaos to possess him, and therefore revive Dracula, or that he had no interest in Soma since he didn't want to heed the calling of Chaos while other candidates did. In Grimoire of Souls he notes he has no care for Soma and only for Dracula, however in the novel he notes to Soma he will not befit any harm to him and to continue living his life in peace as a human. Death's inconsistent relationship with Soma is likely due to different writers having different interpretations of Soma's relationship with Death.
• Aside from his role as a boss in Dawn of Sorrow, Death also makes a brief cameo in the game over sequence for the same game, where he's seen holding a white flame (implied to be Soma's soul).
  • Similarly, even though Death does not have a major role in Order of Shadows, he does make a cameo during the game over sequence, where he appears and descends upon Desmond Belmont's corpse.
• Garamoth has his own version of Death ten thousand years in the future, the Time Reaper. The Time Reaper heavily resembles Death from Curse of Darkness, and even Death himself acknowledge this in his True Story Mode.
• Death disguising himself as a priest in Curse of Darkness is inspired by a scene in Ingmar Bergman's classic 1957 film, The Seventh Seal.
• In Portrait of Ruin, inside of Death's boss room in the Tower of Death, there are two statues of creatures that resemble Gaibon, possibly referencing this monster's allegiance to him alongside with Slogra.
• In The Dracula X Chronicles, Death says: "Face me, boy!" even if the player is playing as Maria Renard.
