	~ Juste Belmont to Dracula Wraith

Background

After Dracula’s second defeat at the hands of Simon Belmont in 1698, the people viewed him as a hero and began gathering around him. Soon enough, a peaceful village formed around the Belmont household. Nearly 30 years passed and Simon Belmont’s grandson, Juste Belmont, was born in this village and, as tradition for the Belmont Clan, trained to be a vampire hunter. However, unlike his predecessors, Juste was the first Belmont to actually grow up ingrained in society, and made friends with a girl named Lydia Erlanger, and a boy named Maxim Kischine.

The three were best friends and grew up alongside each other during Juste’s vampire hunter training sessions. Maxim, however, was also an aspiring vampire hunter, and inserted himself as Juste’s rival. The two eventually competed for who would inherit the Vampire Killer whip, but Juste outclassed Maxim in every competition they had. Eventually, Juste would follow the legacy of his ancestors and be handed the Vampire Killer on his 16th birthday.

Maxim, frustrated and jealous by Juste’s victory, decided to leave on a training expedition, and Juste had not heard from him in two years; until one day, suddenly, Maxim reappeared in town with wounds all over his body, and told Juste that Lydie had been kidnapped and taken to Dracula’s Castle. Astonished that Dracula’s Castle had risen despite it not having been a century since his previous defeat, Juste rushed over to the castle as fast as he could.

Vampire Killer whip in hand, Juste infiltrated Dracula’s Castle, only to find that Dracula himself was not there. Instead, the Belmont learned the terrible truth; Maxim’s training expedition was actually a journey to find Dracula’s body parts and resurrect him, so that he could prove himself by taking the Dark Lord down. However, Maxim was possessed by Dracula in the process, and stole Lydie himself.

Thus, Maxim had developed two separate personalities; Maxim (his regular self), and Dark Maxim (his possessed form). This created two alternate-dimensional versions of Dracula’s Castle, Castle A and Castle B, which Juste was forced to traverse. After doing so, and conquering both entire castles, Juste finally confronted Dark Maxim in his chambers. Wearing Maxim’s bracelet while they dueled, Juste was able to regain Maxim’s memory for a split moment in order to split Dracula from him.

There, Juste discovered that the being that possessed Maxim was not Dracula himself, but an unknown Wraith who took over Dracula’s form and powers. After the Dracula Wraith fuses himself with the parts of Dracula’s body, he and Juste have one final duel, where Juste fortunately prevails.

Taking Maxim and Lydie, Juste finally escaped the crumbling castle and reveled in his victory. Lydie and Maxim returned consciousness and the three apologized for each other, promising to put their friendship back on track and return peacefully to the village. Juste went on to marry Lydie, and they became the direct grandparents of the legendary Richter Belmont.

Belmonts are pillars of strength, willing to keep fighting even when weakened greatly and having their existence slowly erased from history.

Other

Standard Tactics: Juste will utilize his whip with various spell fusions or sub-weapons that best suit the situation.

Weaknesses

• Unique Weaknesses: Nothing notable.
• Armor Weaknesses: The Cabacete reduces hearing.

Note

• 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. 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", a knight who has natural holy powers. Corrupted enemies such as Charlie Vincent, use holy water attacks on Carrie and Reinhardt.

Miscellaneous Feats

• Juste easily destroys a large marble stone statue.

Trivia

• Juste's appearance is very similar to Alucard.
• Juste means "righteous" in French.
• The fact that he is the only Belmont who has white hair and a very pale skin could be the result of him having albinism, a congenital disorder characterized by the complete or partial absence of pigment in the skin, hair and eyes; and also may be a reference to usual representations of characters in manga and anime where the white (白 shiro) hair is either used for an old person that has wisdom, a pure person that lacks connection with the physical world, or a character with special/magical abilities. This would also explain the white hair in Nathan, Soma, and Hector's designs.
• Since he is the only Belmont descendant from Sypha Belnades that focuses more on magic than physical combat, unlike the rest of the Clan, the elemental Spell Books could actually be the same ones she used in Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse.
• Since Dracula Wraith was not the real Dracula, it makes Juste and Leon the only two playable Belmonts in the series who have not fought against Dracula.
• Juste appeared in the Greatest Five special move from Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin.
• Despite depictions of the Vampire Killer in official artworks being that of a leather whip, the in-game model and sound effects suggest he arrived to the castle with the whip fully upgraded in the Morning Star form.
• Juste is the only Belmont so far that has been shown using Familiars and summoning creatures to help him, thanks to the Summoning Tome.
• Juste is eventually succeeded by Richter Belmont. Due to this and his love interest Lydie; Juste and Lydie are likely Richter's grandparents.
