Sign Up Castlevania: Requiem of Eternal Reminiscence

[Talon]

[color=royal blue]There is a balance of powers between good and evil, but every hundred years, the powers of good mysteriously weaken, allowing evil to gain a firm foothold in this, the mortal realm...

Once again, the hundred years of peace has passed, and the forces of evil once again have incarnated themselves in the form of he who is most evil. Dracula has arisen again. This time, however, there is only one remaining Belmont, for all the rest were mystriously taken hold of by an illness, an illness caused by the demons of Hell that took hold of their souls. This Belmont, Percival, mysteriously withstood the illness, but not the demons. He is evil, almost as much as Dracula. This happened once before, to Richter Belmont, but there was another to battle Dracula, his own son, Alucard Fahrenheit Tepes. But this time, even Alucard has given in to his father's ways, leaving the forces of good horribly defenseless against the evils of Dracula, Alucard, and Percival. But there is a hope. A youth born to the daughter of he who defeated Dracula in the last battle. Nathan Graves was a hero, though he was not related to the Belmont clan. Now, Nathan's grandson must take up the whip and the holy rune sword Fioris to defeat Dracula. But he cannot do it alone. He must call upon the descendants of other Vampire Hunters who helped the Belmont clan, and still more who never even knew of the legendary family.

[b]End Reference[/b]

These are the requirements to defeat the lords of evil. My stats will be an example:

[b]Name:[/b]Artemis Graves

[b]Age:[/b]16

[b]Appearance:[/b]Check the attachment. I finally changed it to something more "Castlevania"! It's not Alucard or Juste Belmont. It's actually the guy in the manga "Half-Moon Vania" who I based Artemis upon.

[b]Bio:[/b]Looking just like his grandfather, Artemis has been trained by Nathan himself to wield Fioris and the Hunter whip. He has been chosen to be the one to defeat Dracula, to bring a new name into legend. He needs help, however, for he cannot even breach the castle walls unaided...

[b]Weapons:[/b]Hunter Whip, which has the ability to spin around when held aloft for a while, and the Fioris longsword, which is the only blade capable of defeating Count Dracula. In English, it's name is translated to Alaris. Later he will gain the Alcarde Spear.

[b]Abilities:[/b]Because of the runic artifacts his grandfather gave him, he bears the abilities to dash for a long while, to slide and attack, to jump between walls and gain height, to double jump, and to tackle.

[Heartless Me]

name: Percival Belmont

age: 25

appearance: "Percy" has Long blonde/brown hair with grey lockes. His
blue eyes have a piercing glare. He is very tall standing at about six feet and one inch. His body is not quite as muscular as some of his ancestors but he is much more agile.

bio: Born from a clan outcast Darian Belmont and Penelope Deveroux, a brothel woman in paris, Percival grew up never knowing his father so he was never aware of his destiny of being a vampire hunter. When castlevania returned to this realm and the disease spread through the belmont clan like the black plague he was able to escape death merely by ignorance, though as the last belmont died the entire focus of the plague fell upon Percival. Unfortunately the illness of the palgue had gone stale and only the demons remained. All of which entering his body and subsuming his spirit. He now is no longer who he was but a shell housing an army of demons. Demons whose only goal is the destruction and absorbtion of the powers of the lord of darkness, Dracula.

weapons: Belmont Whip, Belmont Sword, Cross(inverted),

abilities: Enhanced Physical Abilities, Demonic powers, Psychic abilities.

She does not fully understand exactly why her grandmother decided to do it at a young age---she was exactly 8 when she started. She does not want to follow the footsteps that Maria has set for her, but she knows that she must. She just wants to be an ordinary teenager, but nothing is ordinary by a long shot. By training her so young, Misty has surpassed her grand mother by far...

[b]Name:[/b] Voivode Dracula

[b]Official Title:[/b] Count Dracula of Wallachia & Moldavia

[b]Age:[/b] Unknown (Count Dracula rose to prominence during the 15th Century. So by this logic, he is at least 300 years of age -- but he could easily be well over 500 years of age, if Wallachian legend is correct).

[b]Appearance (natural state):[/b] Count Dracula wears hand-crafted Romanian robes when in his natural state. In his natural state, he can be seen with long white hair that is wound tightly over the back of his head. When in his natural state, Dracula appears as his biological age (in other words, he [i]looks[/i] like a very old man).

[b]Appearance (rejouvinated/public state):[/b] When in public (amongst mortal human beings), Dracula takes on a more pleasing image. He wears a grey 18th century suit, carries a cane and wears a matching top-hat. He also posesses round tinted spectacles, so as not to give away his identity to a potential vampire hunter. However, Dracula also wears an elaborate silk ruffled shirt (which can be seen through his jacket and vest); at the head of the ruffle is a brooch with Dracula's native Wallachian coat of arms engraved on it.

[b]Biography:[/b] Voivode Dracula became the ruler of the principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia during the 15th century. It was during this period that the Turkish forces attacked what is now known as Romania, in an attempt to overthrow the leadership of the area.

It became apparent to Dracula that he would not be able to defeat the Turkish armies by force -- his army was too small to adequately defend the two aforementioned territories. So, Dracula enacted a plan.

When the first wave of Turkish troops approached the rolling hills nearby Dracula's western castle, Dracula ordered his forces to kill the approaching army. When the first wave was defeated, Dracula ordered that five hundred large wooden posts be situated around the western side of his castle's property. The posts were several meters high and the bodies of the slain Turkish soldiers were brutally impaled on the ends of the various posts.

When the second wave of soldiers attacked, they were unprepared for what they saw; row upon row of bloody bodies, hanging in mid air in grotesque and sexually suggestive positions.

The army fled. The Wallachian and Moldavian forces had won.

This event actually made Dracula a popular leader in these principalities. However, the event also seriously scarred the Count.

He began to walk through the fields of bodies at night; he ordered that they remain and not be taken down. After several months passed, Dracula began dining amongst the rotting carcasses. He would sit at the end of a long table and have his servants bring him food and drink, as he admired the emaciated figures around him.

Within several years, Count Dracula became a recluse, hiding from the world around him. Visitors to his home were rarely seen again and rumors began circulating that these people had been captured by Dracula's minions and taken to secret hideouts in the Transylvanian Mountains, where they were tortured for days on end and slowly drained of their blood with rusty and primitive surgical instruments.

Rumors also spread that Dracula actually drank the blood of his victims. Though this was never confirmed by anybody, it became the subject of increasing speculation after a visitor to the Count's home actually [i]did[/i] return. He was caught in Wallachia five months after visiting the Count's home (a castle with the title "Vania" -- Vania is the actual home of Count Dracula; it is where he lived day by day. It is much harder to access than his other castles). However, the circumstances surrounding his capture were bizarre; he was seen in an alleyway with a naked woman. His mouth was covered in blood and the woman, despite having a deep gash on the side of her neck, appeared to be alive.

The man was captured by authorities and sent to a nearby insane asylum, where he was reported to have attacked several other inmates. The attacks frequently revolved around cannibalism -- drinking of the blood, eating of the soft organs or ritual dismemberment of the victim.

This man was not the only one; several individuals had come from the Count's home and had displayed similar traits. And so, fear gripped the Transylvanian countryside for several hundred years.

Over the decades (and centuries), various scientists and historians compiled lists of data about the vampire (specifically about Dracula as well). However, several misconceptions became clearly apparent to those who had hunted vampires.

For example, there is no evidence that Count Dracula could not walk in daylight. In fact, daylight did not hurt the Count -- but it did weaken his supernatural abilities.

[b]Weapons:[/b] Dracula does not posess weaponry. He does not need weapons for his purposes; the only tools he uses are primitive surgical devices, which are believed to be used for bizarre demonic experimentation.

[b]Abilities:[/b] Dracula's abilities can be divided into two categories. Supernatural Traits and Limitations.

[b]Supernatural Traits:[/b]

He is potentially immortal

He survives on the blood of others

He has the strength of twenty men

He can shape-shift into the form of a wolf or a bat

He can appear as mist or elemental dust

He has no reflection in a mirror

He casts no shadow

He has hypnotic power over his victims

He can turn victims into vampires

He holds the ability to hurl magic balls, spears, and other violently painful implements at his enemy.


[b]Limitations:[/b]

He may not enter a household unless he is invited in

He loses his supernatural powers during daylight hours

He must sleep on the soil of his native land

He can cross running water only at the slack or the flood of the tide

He is repelled by garlic and holy symbols (crucifix, holy water)

He can be destroyed by driving a stake through his heart and decapitating him

[Talon]

[color=teal]I asked him and one other to join. I'm allowing them because it seems we needed one more person, ans Dark-Eye ran down his limit on time before posting. Any who, here are the blank spaces in Henry Oldrey's life. And I'll put up the attachment.

[b]Age:[/b]29

[b]Bio:[/b]When Henry was only twelve, he'd been playing around in his mother's Maze garden when he found a new gardener. He walked up to the towering figure to see that his arm was a chainsaw. By coincidence, his father had been turned into a vampire and accepted the gardener's help from Dracula. The gardener, named Franken, chased Henry about until he was found by Cornell Wolfheart, a man who led him out of the maze and into the forest, where he left him with an amulet of protection. Later, he found that Cornell had rescued his sister. He became inspired by the fact that Cornell had defied Dracula and became a clergyman whose role in the church was to destroy Dracula when he arose again. Dracula did arise again, with help from Actrise and Death. While a Belmont man and a Belnades girl, Reinhardt Schneider and Carrie Fernandez, battled Dracula physically, Henry valiantly battled through the castle, rescuing children much like Cornell had rescued him. A shock came to him while rescuing the third child. Franken was still the gardener. Henry killed the creature and went on, saving all six of the children Dracula planned to sacrifice to get his power. Henry later became a clergyman, this time actually conducting masses without priesthood. However, Dracula arose. Henry stared at Castlevania, strapping on his armor and his pistols...

[b]Appearance:[/b]The attachment, please.[/color]

[The Harlequin]

[font=gothic][color=crimson]I'm not going to have to actually conduct any masses am I? I'm not really up on that kind of religion...[/font][/color]

[Talon]

[color=teal]Don't worry. You can start off going Woo-happy, if you want. But don't kill any of the heroic characters or I'll go Belmont-happy and whip your arse![/color]

[The Harlequin]

[font=gothic][color=crimson]I'm a good guy aren't I... I'll go kill some evil people or something.[/font][/color]

[Talon]

[color=teal]Ok. Now all we need is my second mystery RP'er, and the RPG will have a complete cast of characters. I encourage others to try out however, for I am also screening for possibilities in the sequel. I may even let more than just my mystery guest in before we get to the Castle![/color]
