The villains

Dracula

Form more info see: Dracula (Castlevania) Dracula from Symphony of The Night Dracula is a fictional vampire from the Castlevania series of video games, where he is the main villain in most of the titles. ...

The Castlevania games have always had a single focus on a single character as the main antagonist. That villain is none other than the Count Dracula. While not the main villain of all the Castlevania games, Dracula has played a role in every one. He is the source of evil, and the reason that the heroes fight in the Castlevania series.

Dracula from Symphony of The Night Dracula is a fictional vampire from the Castlevania series of video games, where he is the main villain in most of the titles. ...

At the end of Castlevania: Lament of Innocence, the game that told the origins of the Castlevania series, it is revealed that a man named Mathias Cronqvist would later name himself the King of all Vampires and he would not encounter the Belmonts for hundreds of years later, so it is implied that he is Dracula. But in a later game, Dracula addresses him as Vlad Dracula Tepes III, the actual name of the historical man who inspired the character of Dracula in the novel of the same name, written by Bram Stoker. Castlevania: Lament of Innocence is a PlayStation 2 video game in the Castlevania series. ... Castlevania (ã‚ãƒ£ãƒƒã‚¹ãƒ«ãƒ´ã‚¡ãƒ‹ã‚¢) is a video game series, created and developed by Konami. ...

There has yet to be a game in the series that explains this problem in continuity, although some believe that the Dracula in the later games possibly inherited the mantle of Mathias Cronqvist and that Cronqvist never actually called himself Dracula. Aria of Sorrow and Dawn of Sorrow, and their star Soma Cruz, suggest that Dracula, when defeated, can either be reborn as someone else or his power will inhabit another human. (Which of these theories is correct is disputed.) It is possible that Mathias was either reborn as Tepes, or the power of Dracula possessed Tepes, depending of which of these interpretations of Soma's existence you subscribe too. There is an open gap of nearly 400 years between the first two Castlevania games in the Castlevania timeline so it is possible that later games will clear this up.

Despite being the primary villain of the series, his role is often rather passive, and he simply waits in his castle, letting his minions do most of the work for him. His appearance and behavior varies from game to game, but a few common threads exist. Primarily, he often has two forms, the second revealing itself after he has taken enough damage. His weak point in his human form is often his head.
