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


Standard Creatures of the Night

Creatures of the Night (otherwise known as Creatures of Chaos) are creatures existing as servants of Chaos in the Castlevania series, who exist to keep the balance between light and dark. They are normally ruled by a Dark Lord, who acts as the opposition to God. They are constantly reborn by Chaos, sometimes changing form and shape from their original state, existing purely to spread chaos worldwide.

Vampires

Vampires are timeless, undead creatures that appear as the main antagonists in the Castlevania series, where they aim to envelop the world in chaos and darkness.

Originating from Slavic and ancient folklore, these beings are thought to come from the souls of the restless dead, individuals shunned by religion, or those who dabble in dark magic. Some legends suggest they may even arise from people who have made sinister bargains. Vampires are infamous for their insatiable thirst for blood and possess a variety of dark powers, such as superhuman strength, the ability to shapeshift, flight, teleportation, and control over electricity and fire. They can turn others into vampires by sharing their blood and are vulnerable to sunlight, holy items, or having their hearts destroyed. In some narratives, they also emit a hissing sound when agitated.

In Castlevania, vampires differ from traditional depictions. They retain many of their classic traits but also have the ability to perform black magic. Some can tap into a force known as Chaos, which embodies all evil, allowing them to enhance their abilities, although this often leads to further corruption.

Dracula, the iconic vampire in this series, showcases unique powers. He can absorb the malevolence of humanity to resurrect himself after extended periods, summon lesser demons, and inflict curses of decay, plague, and famine on the land. He can also deepen the corruption within human hearts, suggesting that his abilities stem from being chosen by Chaos as a Dark Lord, with only a select few able to gain such powers.

In the Castlevania series, vampires are depicted as a profound menace to humanity. While their exact origins remain unclear, it’s evident they have existed long before Dracula’s rise. They can emerge either by renouncing their humanity—often with the help of magical artifacts—or through being transformed by another vampire.

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.

  79. 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.
