'''Sonia Belmont''' was born in a remote mountain village in Transylvania, as the first-known female born into the [[Belmont Clan]]. As tradition, she was raised by her grandfather to be a powerful vampire hunter, and, once she reached the age of passage, her immense powers were recognized.
One night, Sonia met a man named Alucard, who stated that he was searching for his father, and the two formed a bond. However, tragedy struck, and Sonia’s home was attacked by Dracula’s forces. Sonia rushed home and found her grandfather near death; before passing, he entrusted her with the legendary Vampire Killer whip that had become synonymous with her family.
One night, Sonia met a man named [[Alucard (Castlevania)|Alucard]], who stated that he was searching for his father, and the two formed a bond. However, tragedy struck, and Sonia’s home was attacked by [[Dracula (Legends)|Dracula]]’s forces. Sonia rushed home and found her grandfather near death; before passing, he entrusted her with the legendary [[Vampire Killer]] whip that had become synonymous with her family.
Infuriated and filled with a lust for vengeance, Sonia invaded Dracula’s Castle and skillfully fought her way through it; slaying each and every monster within, weak or strong. Eventually, she made her way to the castle keep, but was surprisingly faced against Alucard. As the son of Dracula, Alucard believed that it was his destiny to destroy the Dark Lord, and didn’t trust that Sonia could do it.

Not willing to turn back, and fully prepared to prove herself, Sonia fought against Alucard, and eventually she won, which surprised Alucard tremendously. Although Sonia apologized for injuring him, Alucard quickly dismissed this, and expressed the newfound trust he had that Sonia could get the job done.

Revision as of 13:24, 20 November 2024
"Mature Content"
This character or verse has mature themes and concepts, thus those of young age are ill-advised to look through these.
“
So, until your soul is saved, until all the evil desires in the world are exhausted, goodbye, ruler of evil. Goodbye, o woeful Prince of Darkness.
Sonia Belmont was born in a remote mountain village in Transylvania, as the first-known female born into the Belmont Clan. As tradition, she was raised by her grandfather to be a powerful vampire hunter, and, once she reached the age of passage, her immense powers were recognized.
One night, Sonia met a man named Alucard, who stated that he was searching for his father, and the two formed a bond. However, tragedy struck, and Sonia’s home was attacked by Dracula’s forces. Sonia rushed home and found her grandfather near death; before passing, he entrusted her with the legendary Vampire Killer whip that had become synonymous with her family.
Infuriated and filled with a lust for vengeance, Sonia invaded Dracula’s Castle and skillfully fought her way through it; slaying each and every monster within, weak or strong. Eventually, she made her way to the castle keep, but was surprisingly faced against Alucard. As the son of Dracula, Alucard believed that it was his destiny to destroy the Dark Lord, and didn’t trust that Sonia could do it.
Not willing to turn back, and fully prepared to prove herself, Sonia fought against Alucard, and eventually she won, which surprised Alucard tremendously. Although Sonia apologized for injuring him, Alucard quickly dismissed this, and expressed the newfound trust he had that Sonia could get the job done.
Finally, Sonia was able to continue forwards, and met face-to-face with Count Dracula himself. Exclaiming that she was the first human to ever challenge him, Dracula was confident that he could crush the girl. Unfortunately for the Dark Lord, however, Sonia found the strength within herself to overpower and slay him. With a few parting words swearing his return, Dracula faded away, and his castle crumbled with him.
Sonia was able to escape the castle and watched as it crumbled from a far-off cliffside. Sonia and Alucard would reunite and kindle their relationship together, before bearing a child that Sonia knew would carry both the bloodline of the heroic Belmont Clan, and the dark blood of Alucard’s father. Her story would eventually fade into legend.
Stamina:Superhuman (Was able to travel into Dracula’s Castle, slay several powerful monsters, including besting Alucard, before facing and destroying Count Dracula himself, all without rest)
Range:Standard Melee, Extended Melee with Vampire Killer, Tens of Meters with throwing knives and axes
Vampire Killer: A whip with the power to slay anything related to the vampires. This whip would be passed down to the rest of the Belmont Clan, and used to slay Dracula countless times.
Sub-Weapons
Dagger: A collection of throwing daggers in Sonia’s possession, which can be thrown at enemies at high speeds.
Cross: This is a boomerang, which is shaped like a holy cross. It returns to Sonia after being thrown.
Axe: An axe made with silver, which Sonia uses to throw at her enemies.
Holy Water: A jar of holy water that erupts into flames once it is released out of its container.
Pocket Watch: A watch that allows Sonia to stop time for a brief moment, although it is costly in hearts for him to use.
Soul Weapons
Wind: A tornado of wind that paralyses the enemy once it touches them.
Ice: This spirit will fully heal Sonia of all of her wounds when she uses it.
Flame: Creates a giant flash of fire that wipes out everything in the vicinity.
Saint: Sends a wave of holy energy in front of Sonia as protection.
Magic: This spirit completely destroys everything around Sonia, and nullifies their attacks.
Items
Meat: Partially restores Christopher’s health.
Crystal: Powers up the attacking strength of the Vampire Killer whip.
Notable Techniques
Burning Mode
Burning Mode is a special self-defense capability that Sonia Belmont possesses, while in this mode, she becomes invulnerable to enemy attacks and damages anyone she touches, along with her attack strength being doubled, her movement being faster, her jump height increasing, and being able to walk over spikes. She does not lose this mode until her "Burning Gauge" is empty.
Wind Soul
Stops enemy movement and attacks in all scenes except the area boss and stage boss battles.
Ice Soul
Restores Sonia's entire life gauge.
Flame Soul
A flash attack effective against all enemies except area and stage bosses.
Saint Soul
Sends a wave in front of Sonia. Cannot be fired consecutively.
Magic Soul
Destroys an enemy other than the area and stage bosses and nullifies the enemy's attack.
Other
Standard Tactics: Sonia will use the Vampire Killer along with the Weapon Souls that best compliment the situation.
The good ending of Castlevania Legends has some implications that Sonia's child was fathered by Alucard. As Alucard was her only love interest within the game and no other male love interest is mentioned.
Sonia is depicted with a sword at her side in several pictures from the Castlevania Legends instruction booklet. However, she never uses one in the game itself. In the Castlevania: Resurrection pre E3 demo, she does appear to use a sword/axe to slash at close-quarters enemies.
She met Alucard when she was 17 years old, as mentioned in the instruction booklet. However, the official guide claims that she met him at 15. The age given in the guide is probably a misprint.
Sonia is one of only two lead protagonists in the series that are female, Shanoa being the other. However, Sonia is no longer part of the main timeline.
Sonia Belmont's existence and the entire happenings of Castlevania Legends were removed from the official timeline of Castlevania in November, 2005 because they conflicted with the plotline of the main games[222].
↑Castlevania Judgment Aeon's Hyper Attack on Death
↑Akumajo Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisoukyoku Novel “I had said it before. I do not intend to bind the world with chaos.” “…… If so, why did you take power away from the crack in the eclipse’s seal? If you just intend to imitate like a monkey, isn’t your own power enough?” Those were the emotionless words of Death. In response, Olrox laughed his bold answer. “As I’ve said, I would equally gain control over the human world and the source of Dracula’s power, chaos. I do not intend to obey someone else’s mind aside from my own. That includes you who were born out of chaos.” “……” “You should be glad though to know yourself. Just by stealing power, my shameful monotonous time is over…… Even before Alucard appeared, just because I showed up and declared war on him.” Olrox’s voice was mixed with a tinge of thin delight. He respectfully bowed to Death who completely killed his emotions. “I would end the reincarnation cycle of this demon castle. I who understood and was spun out of the stains of chaos, swear to rob that power with my hands. Now, yield.” With Death’s reply, an explosive murderous intent rose. Two bronze colored scythes much larger than usual appeared; it advanced to the space in between the two men with an intention to cut off Olrox’s head. Kill the distance----- Kill the sound----- Just, faster, soon, die. It can be seen that the blades have certainly caught Olrox’s neck, but----- that is only an after image and the vampire is already at Death’s back. “……die.” That was said by the enemy who called on his servants. From the surrounding space, a group of purple bats rose, passed by Olrox’s arm with the speed of a bullet, attacking Death.
However, Death did not show any gesture of avoiding them. He simply faced Olrox and sprayed out numerous scythes. The bats and scythes cancelled each other out and the entire dance hall sparkled with blood."
↑Castlevania: Symphony of the Night Bestiary No. 44
↑Akumajo Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisoukyoku "From the time they stepped into the mountains, Curtis and Michelle felt malicious intent in the air.
Even though it is still far away, their bodies seemed to squeal [run away]. There was definitely no room for doubt. It is certain that the [castle] exists at the back of the mountains. The church’s greatest vampire hunter, Julius Belmont must be contacted. However, the conversation jumped into the matter of the disappearance of several village children."
↑Akumajo Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisoukyoku "A drawbridge suspended from the main gate is seemingly welcoming Michelle’s arrival. And her body was telling her [do not go] as her leg muscles were petrified like stone."
↑Akumajo Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisoukyoku "“Uh……aa……Mi……chelle……” That really is no doubt an obsession. The youth had more than 28 holes penetrating his limbs and body. His heart is already starting to fail and he is desperately trying to say something amidst the darkness. “Only…… protect…… you……-----“ When he said those words he must say, the man’s soul already left his body-----becoming one of the floating spirits that wander the halls of the castle. However----- Fate did not allow it. For those people who are involved with the demon castle, even the loneliness of death seemed half hearted----- The man’s soul is pierced by a small scythe that flew in from somewhere. That scythe did not exist physically. It was a diabolic blade created by some magic and possessed a strong soul."
↑Akumajo Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisoukyoku "“Oh, it does not matter much. Here, here!”
Hammer sensed that the air between the two suddenly felt heavy so he laughed out while holding a weapon. It was a whip that was soaked in blood in some places. “I picked this up at the garden and I believe this is yours, right? Old man Julius also uses a whip. I came here just to deliver this to ya.” Whoosh, receiving the thrown whip, Michelle noticed that it was the magical whip that serves as Curtis’ weapon. “That’s great……! Curtis! With this your power-----“ In order to shake away the confusion she had a while ago, Michelle raised her voice, but----- “Sorry, but…… with my current self, I could not handle it.” “……? What are you talking about? Curtis……” was he still confused, Michelle made him grip his whip. Snap, some kind of popping sound rang and Michelle felt a light shock in her arm. “Uh……!?” What happened, she directed her eyes on the origin of the shock----- A part of the whip’s handle had a rotten like disintegration----- A part of Curtis’ hand was burned, and that skin immediately returned back to as before. ----- No way…… “Curtis……?” “……I am currently weak at holy magic.” “Eh……”"
