| ==Background==
| |
| '''Malus''' is the reincarnation of the Dark Lord, Count Dracula. In the year 1844, when Dracula was facing off against the man-beast, Cornell, Dracula forced Cornell to shed his beast form in order to rescue his adoptive sister, Ada. Thanks to this, Count Dracula was able to snatch Cornell’s man-beast powers, and died with them after Cornell struck him down.
| |
| | |
| After Dracula’s death, his servants were able to recover Cornell’s man-beast powers that he had snatched, and used those powers to ensure that Dracula would reincarnate into a new body. Sure enough, a young boy with blue hair was born to a couple in a forest cabin under a blood moon; Malus.
| |
| | |
| By the time Malus turned eight years old, he realized that he was Dracula reincarnated, but knew that he could not recover his full power and form, lest he reveal his presence to vampire hunters before he is ready. Because of this, Malus lamented that someone of his power had to have gone through childhood again.
| |
| | |
| Eventually, Dracula’s servants began kidnapping children and bringing them to Dracula’s Castle, as it was prophesied that the child Dark Lord would reveal himself in the castle. This included Malus, who saw the opportunity as a way to lure in vampire hunters and deceive them.
| |
| | |
| Eventually, his plans come to fruition, as the church sends in vampire hunters like Henry Oldrey and Reinhardt Schneider, along with the young Carrie Fernandez, to rescue these children and destroy the castle. Reinhardt and Carrie in particular come in contact with Malus, who he successfully deceives into growing closer with him.
| |
| | |
| However, after Reinhardt and Carrie destroy who they believe to be Count Dracula, Malus reveals himself by shooting at them with a bow & arrow, from atop a dark pegasus. Reinhardt and Carrie are both shocked as Malus is finally able to reveal his true identity, and ages himself into an adult form that can contain his full powers.
| |
| | |
| Malus and the vampire hunters face off in a legendary battle, with Malus even transporting them to an alternate realm and taking the form of a horrid dragon-like beast in order to stop them. However, Malus was unsuccessful in the battle, and was struck down. At last, the Dark Lord was defeated once more.

| '''Age:''' 8 years old (Child Malus), 720 years old (Dracula)
| |
| | |
| '''Classification:''' Vampire, Dark Lord
| |
| | |
| '''[[Alignment]]:''' '''Chaotic Evil''' (Despite being a child, Malus retains the full memories of [[Dracula (Castlevania)|Dracula]], who is entirely self-serving and evil to his very core. Malus will trick people and feign innocence all as a ploy to get what he wants, all entirely for his selfish ambitions of destruction and gaining power)
| |
| | |
| '''[[Dimensionality]]:''' '''3-D'''
| |
| | |
| '''[[Attack Potency]]:''' At least '''Universe level''', likely '''Far Higher''' (Although Malus [https://thecodex.wiki/Castlevania#Alternate_Timeline takes place in an alternate timeline], we know the Castlevania multiverse is linked through Judgement, as [https://youtu.be/6wS-o_6Nf5E?t=18 Cornell appears in it] despite also [https://thecodex.wiki/Castlevania#Alternate_Timeline being from a separate timeline game]; Thus, the characters should be similar in power between timelines. [https://youtu.be/Y7MyIUyRVHk?t=4661 Malus is a reincarnation of Dracula] and thus should be as strong as main-timeline Dracula; [https://imgur.com/a/HAJqglw Dracula is above Galamoth], let alone the Time Reaper, who Galamoth controls. The Time Reaper [https://youtu.be/rEkyWJ2YRa4?t=81 was going to destroy the entire Castlevania Timeline]. He also [https://youtu.be/fY4JaSCtgfA?t=102 wields Cornell’s man-beast powers], which [https://youtu.be/Qq4l9DdoZ20?t=1498 Cornell used to also defeat the Time Reaper])
| |
| | |
| '''[[Durability]]:''' At least '''Universe level''', likely '''Far Higher''' (Comparable to the main timeline Dracula, who [https://youtu.be/n-3vlj6Sqk4?t=790 took hits from the Time Reaper]; The Time Reaper [https://youtu.be/rEkyWJ2YRa4?t=81 was going to destroy the entire Castlevania Timeline])
| |
| | |
| '''[[Striking Strength]]:''' At least '''Universe Class''', likely '''Far Higher'''
| |
| | |
| '''[[Lifting Strength]]:''' '''Unknown'''
| |
| | |
| '''[[Speed|Travel Speed]]:''' '''Superhuman''' (Should scale above Leon Belmont, who was able to escape Walter's Castle by [https://youtu.be/5QU8TPu30Uk?t=835 running from the top floor to the entrance, before the entire structure collapsed]. Also has access to a horse; the average horse runs at 88 km/h)
| |
| | |
| '''[[Speed|Attack Speed]]:''' '''Faster Than Light'''
| |
| | |
| '''[[Speed|Reaction Speed]]:''' '''Faster Than Light''' (Should be comparable to main timeline Dracula, who [https://imgur.com/a/JNPLkAZ generated a light beam]. Being Dracula means he also scales to Trevor Belmont, who was able to outpace Nuculais, [https://imgur.com/a/1FwheC8 a being composed entirely of light]. Should be above Leon Belmont, who outpaced Medusa, who could [https://imgur.com/a/cmPEnnE produce beams from her eyes] on [https://imgur.com/a/ABrBMtx several occasions]; these beams were [https://imgur.com/a/gMbiAUZ confirmed to be comprised of light]. Should scale to the other reincarnation of Dracula, Soma Cruz, who could outpace Paranoia; Paranoia can [https://imgur.com/a/DuWIYU3 generate beams of energy] from its hands, [https://imgur.com/a/1EzneLN confirmed to be comprised of light]. Being Count Dracula should put him about Count Olrox as well, who could [https://imgur.com/a/s0p2o3n generate a beam], which was [https://imgur.com/a/XCsZ0x4 confirmed to be light-based])
| |
| | |
| '''[[Stamina]]:''' '''Limitless''' (With the Crimson Stone, Dracula was given immortality and longevity that allows for him to keep going naturally, unless he is killed through outside means. His power is sourced in the primordial god, Chaos, who should not have stamina whatsoever. The only time he is seen sleeping is when he is biding his time, or during times when he is dead)
| |
| | |
| '''[[Range]]:''' '''Standard Melee''', '''Tens of Meters''' with teleportation, '''Multi-Universal''' with powers (his power is sourced from Chaos, which resides in a completely separate realm)
| |
| | |
| '''[[Intelligence]]:''' '''Supergenius Intelligence''' (Retains the same intelligence he had as Count Dracula, despite the new childlike body. On top of Dracula’s already astounding centuries of genius, Malus was able to trick the heroes into believing a different man was Dracula, while playing himself up to be an innocent boy)

| |
| ==Other==
| |
| '''Weaknesses:''' Like Dracula, Malus is extremely weak to holy powers and weapons blessed by the church, as well as sunlight. His childlike body leaves him fairly open and he relies on deception to make sure he stays alive, which has worked against him before.
