~ Dracula Wraith to Juste Belmont |
Background
The Dracula Wraith was an evil spirit spawned from Count Dracula’s remains in conjunction with Maxim Kischine’s mind. This evil spirit, having been born from Dracula’s remains, takes on Dracula’s form and possesses a small bit of the Dark Lord’s intelligence.
After the Dracula Wraith was created from contact between Maxim and the Dracula remains, it went on to house itself within Maxim’s mind and take control of him, developing a persona within him that came to be known as Dark Maxim. With Dracula’s Wraith risen, Dracula’s Castle rose with him; furthermore, Maxim’s split personalities spawned a parallel dimension, a complete copy of the castle, known as Castle B.
Now as Dark Maxim, the Dracula Wraith headed back to Maxim’s hometown and kidnapped Maxim’s childhood friend, Lydie Erlanger. He then took her to the castle, which he did to draw out Maxim’s friend, Juste Belmont. As expected, Juste entered the castle immediately and searched for Lydie.
Eventually as Juste was through with traversing both Castle A and Castle B, he reached the room where Lydie was being held. The Dracula Wraith revealed himself within Maxim, and was finally forced out of his body by Maxim’s willpower. Realizing that he needs blood to achieve his completed form, the Dracula Wraith attacked Juste Belmont.
Unfortunately for it, the Dracula Wraith was completely destroyed and wiped from existence by Juste Belmont. Fully completed, the Dracula Wraith stated that the Belmont Clan would be cursed to fight for eternity, and then it was gone. The real Count Dracula would then be resurrected nearly 44 years later.

The castle can make glyphs that teleport one outside of the castle by standing over it[44]. A lot of these creatures are summoned from Hell[45]. The castle has magic energies that seal the gateway to hell[46])
Intelligence: Supergenius Intelligence (Absorbed Dracula's remains into him[47], where Mathias is the only person who truly understands alchemy, having studied and being a lead component in the secret arts of alchemy, a science that experiments with the arcane[48], and experiments with the principles of God's creation of the world[49], along with being said to be as great a task as recreating God's creation of the Earth[50]. Alchemy and Magic are one and the same, where magic requires one to have a deep understanding of Quantum Physics to utilize it to its fullest, requiring understandings of theories such as "Curse Amplification"[51]. Mathias is a genius tactician, who they call "Cronqvist the Wise"[52])
Knowledge: Grandmaster level (Absorbed Dracula's remains into him[53], who is noted to have a detailed knowledge of alchemy, a science that experiments with the arcane[54]. Due to the passing of his wife, Mathias devised a plan to take revenge on God for stealing Elisabetha by becoming a vampire and living eternally, manipulating Leon, Sara, Walter and his monsters to obtain his goal[55]. Mathias' learning made him an exception to a largely illiterate society[56])

It is noted by Lucy that the "vital soul" of a monster is the cause of the grimoire chaos[81]. 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[82], or Charlotte fading from existence due to them messing with the history of the Grimoires[83], Maria starting to fade because Richter's history is being rewritten[84], 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[85]. The text alterations also make the monsters stronger[86]. With the real world and world of grimoires being one and the same[87], compared to the like of Brauner's painting worlds that are quantum multi-layered spaces requiring understandings of theories such as "Curse Amplification"[88]), Law Manipulation (Creatures of Chaos can alter grimoires, which do not adhere to the laws of reality[89]), 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[90].

Aeon notes that vampires exist for eternity[108]. Walter is noted to be a vampire that has eternal life[109]. 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[110]. Immortal Metaphysical Aspect; Vampires will someday come back to life despite them being killed due to being immortal[111]), Acausality (Causality Immunity; All immortal beings disrupt the flow of time according to Aeon[112].

Vampires can disguise themselves as huamns[127]), Teleportation (Vampires possess the ability to teleport freely[128]. Even non-threatening vampires such as Rosa, fade out from view[129]), Power Suppression (Vampires can submerge their own vampiric powers if needed[130]), Life-Force Absorption (Vampires can consume one's lifeforce[131], allowing them to heal themselves through biting into a victim[132]), Vampirification (Vampires can turn others into vampires[133], Walter turned Rinaldo's daughter into a vampire[134]), Invisibility (Vampires possess natural aura of darkness, which makes one unable to see those with an aura of darkness by the naked eye[135]), Time Manipulation (Passive; All immortal beings disrupt the flow of time according to Aeon[136]), Animal Manipulation (Bats serve under the control of vampires[137], being freely spawnned by any vampire[138]), Cloth Manipulation (A vampire's blood can transform clothes, such as Hector combining a vampire's blood with a prince's clothes to get Dracula's clothes[139]), Electricity Manipulation (Vampires can sometimes have electricity form around them as they transform[140]), Soul Manipulation (The candles in Castlevania are people's souls that were taken by Death or by vampires[141]), Text Manipulation & Plot Manipulation (Passive; Vampire's dark powers allowed them to rewrite the Grimoires to strengthen their dark powers greatly[142]. It is noted by Lucy that the "vital soul" of a monster is the cause of the grimoire chaos[143]. 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[144], or Charlotte fading from existence due to them messing with the history of the Grimoires[145], Maria starting to fade because Richter's history is being rewritten[146], 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[147]. The text alterations also make the monsters stronger[148]. With the real world and world of grimoires being one and the same[149], compared to the like of Brauner's painting worlds that are quantum multi-layered spaces requiring understandings of theories such as "Curse Amplification"[150]), Law Manipulation (Vampires can alter grimoires, which do not adhere to the laws of reality[151]), Power Modification (Vampire's 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[152]. The Chaos of the Grimoire destabilized the magic of the others[153]).
Resistance to Extreme Heats (Unaffected by moving so fast he catches on fire[418]), Extrasensory Perception (Dark Lords are incapable of being sensed by the likes of Death[419]), Attack Reflection (His reincarnation can attack and harm Graham Jones, where he's absorbed the power of the castle, and inherited Dracula's powers[420], where Dracula's mere rib bone reflects all projectiles back[421]), Darkness Manipulation & Hell Manipulation (Dracula has a natural resistance to the darkness element[422].

With time in Castlevania being so potent that not even eternity can withstand time[427], along with even artificial life being subject to the laws of time[428]), Sealing (Dracula's power allowed Soma to easily repel away a multi-layered seal called aurora a multilayered rectangular barrier ritual that was supposed to isolate Soma and then remove Dracula's powers from him[429]. Even while greatly weakened, when the Aurora was used on Dracula, he greatly resisted it, requiring two master magicians to affect him[430]. 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[431]. 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[432]), Fire Manipulation (Dracula is naturally strongly resistant to fire based attacks[433]), Electricity Manipulation (Dracula is naturally strongly resistant to thunder based attacks[434]), Poison Manipulation (Dracula is naturally immune to poison based attacks[435]), Spatial Manipulation (Brauner using Dracula's power spatially segregated Dracula from the castle[436]), 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[437]), Fate Manipulation & Death Manipulation (Death serves Dracula with unfailing loyalty[438], where Death is noted to govern the fate of death[439], being noted to have the power to govern the end of all living things[440], and can use his scythes to kill abstractions such as distance and sound[441]. Death decides who lives and who dies[442]), 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[443], and can kill Death to the point that he requires Mathias to survive in order for him to rise from the dead[444])
Resistance to Time Stop (Areas in the Castle are unaffected by time being stopped, and blocks and objects will still fall[520]. Noted that the stop watch has no effect on moving platforms in the castle[521]. Christopher stopping time on an elevator does not stop the elevator from moving[522], machinery still moves along[523], and floating objects still float[524]. With time in Castlevania being so potent that not even eternity can withstand time[525], along with even artificial life being subject to the laws of time[526]), 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[527])
Equipment
- Castle A & B: Castle A & B serve as essentially Maxim Kischine's Castlevania, where his magic flows throughout both castles.
- Eye of Vlad: This is Count Dracula’s eye, which, when held, prevents the holder from being inflicted with curses.
- Heart of Vlad: This is Count Dracula’s heart, which, when held, prevents the holder from being petrified.
- Rib of Vlad: This is Count Dracula’s rib bone, which, when held, prevents the holder from being poisoned.
- Nail of Vlad: This is Count Dracula’s nail, which, when held, increases the holder’s strength.
- Fang of Vlad: This is Count Dracula’s fang, which, when held, increases the holder’s defence.
- Ring of Vlad: This is Count Dracula’s ring, which, when held, increases the holder’s luck.
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[528] regenerate[529], from any kind[530] of damage due to it absorbing blood[531].
- 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: Much like regular Dracula, Dracula's Wraith does not directly fight the opponent, instead having enemies and the Castle fight them. If the person survives all of these, then Dracula's wraith opens his cape and releases three-directional fireballs. He will then expel seven flaming spheres as his second attack. If defeated in his first form, he will enter his second form, a giant amalgamated version of all of Dracula's remains, where he has a long and extendible tentacle, and will shoot a large energy beam out of his eye. He will also stop for a moment and perform a luning-downward swipe.
Weaknesses
- Creature of the Night Weaknesses: Creatures of the night become weaker when exposed to the morning sun[532]. Garlic significantly weakens creatures of the night[533], and causes demons to die if its placed on the ground[534]. If a vital soul is defeated, the grimoire will revert back to its original content[535].
- Standard Vampire Weaknesses: After a vampire is sufficiently weakened, the sunlight can kill them[536]. Otherwise Vampires can stand out in the sunlight just fine[537]. Though some weaker vampires can have the sun burn them overtime, killing them[538]. Oak Stakes are able to break through the magic of a weakened vampire[539]. Defeating a vampire will stop the effects of someone they have bitten, but only before they've turned[540]. This is shown in Harmony of Dissonance where through Juste killing Dracula's Wraith, the bite marks on Lydie have vanished[541]. Vampires reflections do not appear on mirrors, making them easier to identify[542]. Vampires are noted to be weak during the dawn[543].
- Unique Weaknesses: Dracula's head seems to be a weak point, whereas the rest of his body is immune to damage, his head isn't[544]. Dracula can be separate from his castle through a solar eclipse, which allowed him to be destroyed for good[545]. The most effective weapon against Dracula are opposite emotions, the noble emotions of humanity, being their hopes and dreams. Dracula has a weakness to the light/holy element[546], though he loses this weakness in his transformed state[547]. This can also further be seen as his resurrection being incomplete, as a Dracula with a completed resurrection had no such weakness to holy attacks[548]. Cutting off the throne room will prevent Dracula's resurrection[549].
Note
- Dracula's Wraith is not Dracula, he is the suppressed desires of Maxim Kischine while he was holding the remains of Dracula forming a separate spirit entirely. This spirit went on to possess Dracula's remains, becoming the Dracula wraith[550]. The Wraith is also unfamiliar with the power of the Belmonts, with Juste callng it a "Vile spawn of Maxim"[551]. Dracula's Wraith also notes that it will fade away for good from the world, not noting the usual thing racula notes of him always coming back due to humanity's greed and want of him[552].
- 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[553]. 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"[554], a knight who has natural holy powers[555]. Corrupted enemies such as Charlie Vincent, use holy water attacks on Carrie and Reinhardt[556].
- While vampires have some weakness to sunlight and can burn overtime in them[557], higher tier vampires[558], can stand out in the sunlight just fine[559] without being weakened. It should also be noted even with Dhamphir's like Alucard, in original lore, he was considered a full vampire yet could stand out in the sunlight perfectly fine.
Trivia
- Dracula Wraith's Japanese voice actor, Takuo Kawamura, performed four characters in Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance: Maxim Kischine, the Merchant, Death, and the Dracula Wraith.
- When correctly starting a Hard Mode game, the Dracula Wraith's attack phrase is spoken upon confirming.
- Despite the Dracula Wraith using the six relics Juste Belmont obtained to form its body, Juste still has access to them all in the Relic screen during both battles.

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?

- ↑ 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. - ↑ Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls Prologue Stage 4

- ↑ 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 Judgment Death True Story Mode

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. - ↑ Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow

“…… 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.”

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.

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." - ↑ Haunted Castle Revisited Dominus Collection
