"Mature Content"
This character or verse has mature themes and concepts, thus those of young age are ill-advised to look through these.


“ Please stop... Master Alucard! Please let me die like this. I can now understand Mistress Lisa's feelings. Mistress Lisa wanted to protect your heart, the part of you that is human. I... hated humans. How foolish of me... ah... Master Alucard redeemed my soul... you're a human, don't hate humans... „
~ Lyudmil to Alucard

Background

Lyudmil is a character from the audio drama Castlevania: Nocturne of Recollection. Lyudmil once served Adrian (Alucard) during the time shortly after his mother Lisa's execution. Lisa had healed Lyudmil's parents and many in his village, earning their gratitude. However, when Lisa was falsely accused of witchcraft, Lyudmil tried to aid her escape but failed. She was executed, and Lyudmil was branded a traitor by the villagers. This betrayal deeply embittered him, fueling his resentment toward humanity for their cruelty and hypocrisy.

Afterward, Lyudmil sought out Lisa’s son, Alucard, to share his grief and anger. Alucard reminded him of Lisa's final wishes, urging forgiveness rather than hatred. With nowhere else to turn, Lyudmil vowed to remain by Alucard's side and became his loyal servant, residing with him in Dracula’s Castle.

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

One day, Lyudmil and Alucard spent time in the castle garden discussing the white flowers that Lisa had cherished. Lyudmil reminisced about traditions from his village, such as crafting flower crowns to give to young girls. When Alucard asked if he ever wished to return to his village, Lyudmil replied that he could not, as he would be executed as a traitor. Despite this, he felt he belonged at Alucard's side.

Over time, the longing to see his village proved overwhelming, and Lyudmil eventually returned, only to find it in ruins. Although the exact events are unclear, it is suggested that during Dracula’s vengeful campaign against humanity, Magnus, an incubus in Dracula’s service, destroyed the village and scattered its residents. Magnus gravely injured Lyudmil but left him alive as a means to lure Alucard. When Lyudmil awoke, he found Alucard by his side but had no memory of how he had been rescued. Magnus taunted Alucard, offering him Lyudmil's blood to save his life. Alucard resisted initially, though it is implied that he eventually succumbed. Alucard and his Imp companion later defeated Magnus in battle, though this encounter may have led Alucard to experience a brief period where he sought human blood. Magnus would later show Maria visions of Alucard preying on young maidens, though the truth of these visions remains uncertain.

At some point, Lyudmil became a vampire, although it is unclear whether Alucard was responsible. Consumed by hatred for humanity's betrayal of Lisa, Lyudmil lived as a demon for centuries. In 1798, one year after Alucard awoke from his long slumber, Lyudmil resurfaced, likely due to Magnus’s schemes, and began preying on maidens in a village where Alucard and Maria had settled. His actions drew the attention of Richter Belmont, along with the vampire hunters Cyril and Alexis, who investigated the situation. Lyudmil joined forces with Magnus to battle Alucard, Maria, Richter, Cyril, and Alexis.

During the confrontation, Lyudmil eventually broke free from Magnus's influence and turned against the incubus. However, the injuries Lyudmil sustained in the battle proved fatal, and he died in the presence of his friend Alucard.

Powers and Techniques

Is a Creature of the Night, which gives:

Superhuman Physical Characteristics (Even the smallest creatures of the night can destroy a bridge[32], one of Dracula's bats easily destroyed a stone ground block[33]), Intimidation (Creatures of the nights appearances can cause one to have their body's cells cry out in terror[34]), Immortality (Ageless; 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[35]. 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[36]), Acausality (Causality Immunity; All immortal beings disrupt the flow of time according to Aeon[37], along with ignoring the very passage of time[38]. With their souls being completely free from time[39]. 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[40]), Free Will (Creatures of the Night do not follow the hand of God and instead choose of their own free will[41]), Empowerment (Creatures of the night are empowered by the night[42], becoming stronger when it's night time[43]), Evolution (Creatures of chaos can inherit evil natures[44] awakening into stronger enemies with new abilities and less weaknesses[45]), Resurrection (Self-Resurrection; Creatures of chaos can be brought back to life from the power of hate[46]. This has also been shown with slain heads reviving as an angry wraith[47]), Regeneration (Mid-Godly overtime; Even the castle from Castlevania is a Creature of Chaos[48], where they are always rebirth from Chaos with each rebirth, the creatures takes a new form[49], with this state being referred to as a "regeneration cycle"[50]), Invisibility (Creatures of Chaos possess a natural aura of darkness, which makes one unable to see those with an aura of darkness by the naked eye[51]), Time Manipulation (1-T, Passive; All immortal beings disrupt the flow of time according to Aeon[52]), Darkness Manipulation & Subjective Reality (Creatures of chaos very existence causes dark powers to flow beyond the control of the Elgos' grimoires, due to them collecting documented information on Dracula and his castle. Causing their power to materialize in the real world in the form of monsters[53]. With the real world and world of grimoires being considered the same or "equal"[54], compared to the like of Brauner's painting worlds that are quantum multi-layered spaces requiring understandings of theories such as "Curse Amplification"[55]), Text Manipulation & Plot Manipulation (Passive; Creatures of the night's dark powers allowed them to rewrite the Grimoires to strengthen their dark powers greatly[56]. It is noted by Lucy that the "vital soul" of a monster is the cause of the grimoire chaos[57]. 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[58], or Charlotte fading from existence due to them messing with the history of the Grimoires[59], Maria starting to fade because Richter's history is being rewritten[60], 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[61]. The text alterations also make the monsters stronger[62]. With the real world and world of grimoires being considered the same or "equal"[63], compared to the like of Brauner's painting worlds that are quantum multi-layered spaces requiring understandings of theories such as "Curse Amplification"[64]), Law Manipulation (Creatures of Chaos can alter grimoires, which do not adhere to the laws of reality[65]), 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[66]. The Chaos of the Grimoire destabilized the magic of the others[67]).

Resistance to Ice Manipulation & Absolute Zero (All enemies in Castlevania III: Dracula's curse can eventually break out of being frozen from Sypha's ice magic[68].

With time in Castlevania being so potent that not even eternity can withstand time[72], along with even artificial life being subject to the laws of time[73].

Equipment

Nothing notable.

Notable Techniques


  • Blood Draining: Vampires can bite and drink the blood of their victims. Blood acts as a source of energy and life for vampires and creatures of the night, an example of this being Red Skeletons who endlessly[154] regenerate[155], from any kind[156] of damage due to it absorbing blood[157].
  • Transformation: Vampires are able to turn into bats, wolves, fog, and other sorts of creatures as they please.
  • Super Strength: Vampires are incredibly superhumanly strong, even for the average creature of the night, being noted to be stronger than even Werewolves.
  • Super Speed: Vampires can move incredibly fast, to where all of them leave behind light projections due to how fast they're moving, while they can control their speeds even to approach speeds such as sound. They are normally beyond even other creatures in the castle such as the White Demon who moves at the speed of light at top speed.

Other

Standard Tactics: Lyudmil summons all the demons to attack his enemies.

Trivia

Codex Statistics Questions

Q: Shouldn't the characters be around tier 2 for defeating the Time Reaper who would've destroyed the very fabric of time[176], attempted to destroy the specific era of time[177], cause all beings everywhere to disappear, forever[178] and that the age was on the verge of collapse[179]?

A: We actually never get a direct outright method of Time Reaper's plan for doing this, from what Aeon mentions to Golem, if the Time Rift is not erased, all beings everywhere will disappear, forever[180], implying that it's the Time Rift causing this, this is further backed up by the fact that in Time Reaper's boss fight, there is a vortex in the background consuming everything[181], meaning this is an overtime feat that scales to no one physically.

Q: Shouldn't they get tier 2 for Dracula's influence destabilizing the flow of time[182]?

A: This is a potent ability but has nothing to do with Attack Potency, there is no quantification for "destabilizing the flow of time", along with this, even if it was taken as physically, then it would be overtime as the effects are not noticeable throughout most of Curse of Darkness.

Q: Shouldn't Dracula and by proxy anyone that scales to him get tier 2 for him being able to sustain his castle?

A: This goes under our Stabilization Feats standards, which treats sustaining feats are non-combat applicable Attack Potency normally, though in Dracula's case the Castle is speficially powered by the existence of a Dark Lord, and doesn't necessarily need their strength to rise. In the Castlevania novel, the castle rose without a Dark Lord as an example. Along with this, no one scales to the collapse of the castle, in Curse of Darkness Hector would've died to the collapse of the castle if[183] Julia didn't come save him, and Isaac died within the castle[184]. In other cases the Castle does not collapse[185], but instead slowly fades away[186]. At the end of Dawn of Sorrow Soma Cruz and Genya Arikado (aka Alucard must escape the collapsing abyss.

Q: Shouldn't Castlevania characters that scale to Death have Infinite speed due to Death being able to kill distance itself with his attacks?

A: Killing distance to attack is not a speed feat, it's a method of Spatial Manipulation by circumventing and ignoring distance, while one can say the attack spawns on you instantly, this is not really something quantifiable. Along with this, it would only scale to characters comparable to Death during post-Dawn of Sorrow, as Soma notes Death is far faster than he remembered from his fight with him in Dawn of Sorrow[187].

  118. ↑ WN: Last question. Why does Dracula keep putting meat inside the walls of his castle?

    KI: You should ask, why do they eat it! I've thought about this stuff.
    I've actually thought about the candles. The candles are people's souls that were taken by Death or by the vampires. In Japan there are candles that represent life. So, when you release the souls from the candles by whipping them, they give you a "thank you" present. Thank-you hearts, or thank-you holy water.
    The meat, I have no idea.

    Faster than he can remember, that husky voice rang in front of Soma-----
