Maria Renard

| ~ Maria Renard to Count Dracula |
Background
Maria Renard was a young woman born of the Renard Clan in the small town of Aljiba. Despite only being 12 years old, Maria was extremely talented in combat and was able to harness powerful animal spirits to help protect her. Her Clan was a legendary Clan that had once assisted the powerful Belmont family; granting Desmond Belmont doves to help him fight.
However, one day, Aljiba was raided by Dracula’s forces upon his resurrection, and she, along with several other female villagers, were kidnapped and locked away in Dracula’s Castle. Thankfully, rushing in as fast as he could, the prodigious Richter Belmont came to rescue everyone.
Upon rescuing Maria, Richter insisted that she head back to the safety of the town, but she refused. Knowing that she could be of incredible help to Richter, Maria pleaded that she come along until he finally gave in and allowed for her to. Becoming a pair, Maria and Richter tore their way through Dracula’s Castle even faster than before.
At last, the two made their way into Dracula’s Throne room, where Maria stood back while Richter faced off against the Dark Lord. She pitched in sometimes to help heal Richter and empower him, finally allowing for Dracula’s defeat.
With the Dark Lord finally being defeated, Richter and Maria fled the castle as it crumbled behind them. The fight was over, and everyone was saved. Three years would pass, and Maria would continue her training as a vampire hunter.
One day, however, Maria sensed unease among her animal companions, and ventured into a forest to get answers. Before she knew it, a time vortex appeared before her and she was sucked in. A mysterious man named Aeon appeared, telling Maria of a plot by Galamoth, who has summoned a creature called the Time Reaper to destroy the Castlevania Timeline.
Agreeing to stop anything that she viewed as evil and a threat to the existence of her friends, Maria fought her way through the Time Rift, and faced off against several legendary fighters; including the ancestors of her friend Richter, Simon and Trevor Belmont. At last, she was able to face off against the Time Reaper itself, slaying it and concluding Galamoth’s evil plot.
Maria was sucked back through the Time Rift and returned to her own time, only to find that Richter Belmont had mysteriously vanished. Nearly two years passed since Richter’s disappearance, and the 17 year old Maria was quick to notice that Dracula’s Castle had risen once again.
Feeling that this may be linked to Richter’s disappearance, Maria ventured into the Castle, and ran into a man named Alucard. Maria found Alucard extremely mysterious and intriguing, thankful for his help but also developing some feelings for him. Before anything could be done, however, Alucard found Richter, and discovered that he had been placed under the possession of the dark priest Shaft, who made Richter become the Dark Lord of Dracula’s Castle.
Alucard fought Richter in an intense battle, managing to defeat him and free him from his possession. While Alucard went ahead to face off against Count Dracula, Maria took the shaken Richter and brought him outside of the Castle.
Once Alucard killed Dracula and the Castle started to crumble away, he appeared to Maria and Richter to say his parting words. However, Maria had developed feelings for Alucard, and chased after him after encouragement from Richter.
Maria’s future is completely unknown, although it is likely that her feelings for Alucard were unrequited. She would nonetheless go down in history as a powerful vampire hunter, on the same caliber as a member of the Belmont Clan.
