Background

Henry Oldrey is one of the playable characters in *Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness*. His role spans both his own dedicated adventure and an appearance during Cornell's quest, where he is portrayed as a 10-year-old boy. Years later, Henry matures into a powerful and imposing figure, donning medieval knight-style armor. Unlike traditional vampire hunters, his weapon of choice is a firearm, showcasing a distinct approach to combat.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Henry Oldrey’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness Cornell first meets Henry in the Villa, which had once been Henry's home. However, the Villa had recently become a site of horror. Henry’s father had been transformed into a vampire, and he was now attempting to do the same to his wife and son. At the same time, monstrous creatures had surrounded the estate, placing the family in grave danger. In an attempt to escape, Henry ventured into a nearby labyrinth but was attacked by a chainsaw-wielding madman. It was Cornell’s timely intervention that saved Henry’s life. Henry's mother had sent Cornell to rescue her son while she chose to stay in the Villa, resigned to whatever fate awaited her. After guiding Henry through the deadly maze, Cornell ensures his escape into the forest. Henry later reunites with Cornell at the conclusion of Cornell’s journey. Along with his sister, Ada, Henry looks to the future, determined to start a new chapter in life. Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness – Henry's Quest Eight years later, Henry returns, and both he and the world around him have changed. Dark forces are once again rising, and reports of children being abducted from nearby villages stir unease. Now a seasoned Holy Knight of the Church, Henry is entrusted with the task of rescuing six missing children from Dracula's Castle. However, the mission is urgent: Henry has just one week to complete it before the castle is predicted to collapse. Alongside Reinhardt, a fellow knight, and Carrie, a sorceress, Henry sets out on a quest to stop Dracula’s dark plans. Unlike the other character quests, Henry’s journey is less plot-driven and more open-ended. The order in which the children are rescued depends on the player’s choices, and the quest features minimal cutscenes. There is no central boss or enemy to defeat, and the ending is relatively short, with slight changes based on how many children the player succeeds in rescuing.

Resistance to Dracula's Castle (Can enter Dracula's Castle without experiencing any adverse effects)

The Castle Abilities Include:

Reality Warping (The Castle does not work on standard logic, where changing rooms can have one view a completely different background, such as room with a blue sky that is reflecting up and downwards and having the cloud srotate at a fast speed), Transmutation (Beings that come near are subject to the castle's influence, such as a local barnyard owl which was mutated just from flying near it), Possession (The castle possesses objects with its magic, such as a ouija table), Sealing (Dracula's magic captured Aguni, a primitive god of fire.

The text alterations also make the monsters stronger. With the real world and world of grimoires being considered the same or "equal", compared to the like of Brauner's painting worlds that are quantum multi-layered spaces requiring understandings of theories such as "Curse Amplification".

Notable Technqiues

If Fully Infected by Vamp Status

Standard Vampire 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 regenerate, from any kind of damage due to it absorbing blood.
• 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: Henry will use his gun and the sub-weapon that best suits the situation.

Weaknesses

• Vamp Status Weaknesses: If inflicted with the vamp status, one is unable to use health restoration items and do distance attacks, then after a certain period of time one will become a vampire, corrupting them.
• Unique Weaknesses: Nothing notable.

• Creature of the Night Weaknesses: Creatures of the night become weaker when exposed to the morning sun. Garlic significantly weakens creatures of the night, and causes demons to die if its placed on the ground. If a vital soul is defeated, the grimoire will revert back to its original content.
• Standard Vampire Weaknesses: After a vampire is sufficiently weakened, the sunlight can kill them. Otherwise Vampires can stand out in the sunlight just fine. Though some weaker vampires can have the sun burn them overtime, killing them. Oak Stakes are able to break through the magic of a weakened vampire. Defeating a vampire will stop the effects of someone they have bitten, but only before they've turned. This is shown in Harmony of Dissonance where through Juste killing Dracula's Wraith, the bite marks on Lydie have vanished. Vampires reflections do not appear on mirrors, making them easier to identify. Vampires are noted to be weak during the dawn.

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.
• While vampires have some weakness to sunlight and can burn overtime in them, higher tier vampires, can stand out in the sunlight just fine 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.

Miscellaneous Feats

• Shot open a gated door.

Trivia

• This is the first character in the series to fight with a firearm.
• The "victory" fanfare that plays whenever Henry saves a child is an excerpt from the Theme of Simon Belmont, first introduced to the series in Super Castlevania IV.
• Henry's gameplay is based on the gameplay of the cut character Coller, who was turned into the Frankenstein Gardener players meet in the garden maze in the Villa stage. The major difference is that Coller was supposed to use a shotgun, while Henry uses a six-shot pistol.
  • Ironically, Cornell has to save Henry from the Gardener during the story.
• Henry's exploration area is considerably more limited compared to the other three playable characters, consisting of only six levels, each of which is centered around rescuing a specific child. While some players may consider this section of the game to be less significant or forgettable due to its size, it's important to note that Henry's quest provides a unique chance to unlock secret characters and costumes, making it a worthwhile experience for those interested in fully exploring the game.
• Despite sources online saying that Henry is 10 to 18, there has been no found official source on this so far.
