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


A dark priest who hates peace and attempts to bring about destruction and chaos. He resurrected Dracula to fulfill his plan to change the world according to his wishes. He was a priest before but the more he served God, the more he saw the world covered in desire (sins), and the God he believed in greatly disappointed him. He construed that the God-lead peace causes corruption, dabbling in the dark arts to destroy it, with Dracula's resurrection, he plots to change the world into the one he desires.
~ CR Pachinko Akumajō Dracula official website description
Servants, come forth from the gates of Hell! Attack! Rid my master's castle of this pest!
~ Shaft to his servants

Ha... I die victorious... Count Dracula rises even now! Let him purge the world in flames! Hahaha!
~ Shaft's last words to Alucard, in Symphony of the Night

The dark priest called Shaft, come to cleanse the world in the forge of chaos.
~ Shaft introducing himself to Alucard, in Symphony of the Night

Background

Shaft is a dark priest and devoted follower of Count Dracula. First appearing in Castlevania: Rondo of Blood, he returned in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night as the secondary antagonist in both games.

In 1792, Shaft resurrected Count Dracula and helped him abduct young girls, including Maria Renard and Annette, intending to offer Dracula a bride. During Richter Belmont’s quest, he faced Shaft, who summoned monsters that Simon Belmont had once defeated. Shaft was eventually overpowered.

In Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles, Shaft’s fate changes based on the protagonist’s choices. If Richter or Maria fails to save Annette, she becomes the boss of Stage 7 in place of Shaft's Ghost, allowing him to survive, aid Dracula, and buy him time to escape. If Annette is rescued, Richter or Maria directly confront and defeat Shaft's Ghost.

Afterward, Shaft’s spirit remains bound in a crystal ball.

In 1797, Shaft abducted and brainwashed Richter Belmont, believing that no one could defeat him, as he was the strongest vampire hunter. Using dark magic, Shaft manipulated Richter to defend Dracula’s interests, unaware to Maria and Alucard. Maria suspected he was under a spell, prompting her to help Alucard uncover Shaft's manipulation. Alucard ultimately freed Richter from Shaft's control and thwarted the dark priest’s plans. Yet, even as Alucard defeated him in the Reverse Castle, Shaft remained satisfied, knowing he had succeeded in reviving Dracula.

Can summon enemies through the lightning bolts it makes[150]), Dark Matter Manipulation (The castle contains dark matter within it that beings can use for weapon creation), Abstract Manipulation & Hell Manipulation (The castle can create a core of evil made from hatred, envy, anger and other dark emotions[151]).

Resistance to Time Stop (Areas in the Castle are unaffected by time being stopped, and blocks and objects will still fall[152]. Noted that the stop watch has no effect on moving platforms in the castle[153]. Christopher stopping time on an elevator does not stop the elevator from moving[154], machinery still moves along[155], and floating objects still float[156]. With time in Castlevania being so potent that not even eternity can withstand time[157], along with even artificial life being subject to the laws of time[158])

Weaknesses

Trivia

  • The four bosses Shaft summons in Castlevania: Rondo of Blood are the same first four bosses that appeared in the original Castlevania: the Giant Bat, Medusa, the Mummy and The Creature (Death is not summoned in this encounter as he has his own boss fight).
  • The Ghost boss in Stage 4' of Castlevania: Dracula X (a remake of Rondo of Blood) is basically Shaft's (or more precisely his ghost's) equivalent in the game, at least in appearance.
    • However, Carmilla's abilities in the same game are the ones that are nearly identical to Shaft's own powers in Rondo of Blood, conjuring two orbs that unleash elemental attacks (Carmilla's riding skull's eyeballs in this case).
  • In Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles, the remake of Rondo of Blood, Shaft's skin tone was changed to match the Symphony of the Night artwork of his ghostly self.
  • The Dracula X Chronicles also changes the storyline of the original game to some extent by giving Shaft a larger role. He was ironically responsible for detecting and unlocking Maria Renard's magical potential (rather than Maria getting caught while trying to be a heroine), and was also the one to explicitly kidnap Annette due to her bond with a Belmont.
  • In The Dracula X Chronicles Shaft's possession of Richter Belmont is foreshadowed during the first battle with Shaft, where before summoning monsters to fight Richter he uses an incantation that's similar to the one possessed Richter will say while summoning a Minotaur and a Werewolf to deal with Alucard in Symphony of the Night ("Servants, come forth from the gates of hell! Attack! Rid my master's castle of this pest!").
  • Also in The Dracula X Chronicles, if the player didn't meet the conditions to fight and defeat his ghost, Shaft will appear after Dracula's second form is defeated and the two villains will flee, thus ending the battle –and the game– prematurely.
  • The Necromancer boss from Castlevania: Circle of the Moon also shares a resemblance to Shaft, or more precisely to his ghost, mainly being a floating robe with a very similar design. He is even given some antagonistic lines similar to those usually said by Shaft, being the only regular boss in the game to have this treatment.
  • According to a post by David Cox on Facebook, in the Lords of Shadow universe, Zobek is an amalgamation of Shaft and Death[163].
  • Shaft's possession of Richter Belmont in Symphony of the Night was referenced by Alucard in Richter's Palutena's Guidance conversation in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
    • In addition, Mewtwo's classic mode route, Psychic Control, has him having one of his previous opponents as his "ally". Richter acts as his ally in the fifth round, which apparently is a reference to Shaft brainwashing him in Symphony of the Night.
  • Shaft was given a mention in Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls, where Lucy Westenra speculates from the records that Maria's abnormally high magic potential at her age was likely the result of it being awakened by Shaft. Genya Arikado (a.k.a. Alucard), hearing this, curses him as a malcontent and deduces that Shaft most likely did that as a gift for Dracula.
  • His name may be a miswriting of the German suffix -schaft, which equates as "-hood" or "-ship" for words such as bruderschaft (brotherhood) or partnerschaft (partnership).
  • While Shaft hasn't made any appearances in the two Netflix animated series, Castlevania and Castlevania: Nocturne, some characters from both series seem to borrow aspects from him:
    • The Bishop apparently borrows some traits from Shaft, such as also being a malevolent priest and even sharing some physical resemblance to him.
    • Sala also seems to borrow certain traits from Shaft, such as being a monk whose ultimate goal is to resurrect Dracula.
    • The Vampire Magician wears a cowled robe similar to Shaft's and even uses floating magical orbs to cast spells. However, Adam Deats later confirmed this character was instead based on the Necromancer from Circle of the Moon[164].
    • Vaublanc seems to be a loose reference to Shaft. He wears a similar robe and cowl, and even shares some of his mannerisms. Likewise, most of Erzsebet Báthory's followers also wear similar robes.

Several hundred years have passed with battles with the [dark lord] Dracula.
    When suddenly, an end to it all has been foretold. 1999----- Thanks to the power of a clan in Japan, Dracula’s castle was sealed inside a [solar eclipse] to disappear forever.
    However, in this world, there is no such thing as forever. [They] had understood that Dracula’s regeneration cycle ought to have ended. Indeed, people have prepared for this but will it still exist? The castle is the symbol of the chaos within humans and as long as people exist, it will not be completely sealed.

    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."

    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."
