Basic Info| Name: | Simon Belmont |
|---|
BioName: Simon Belmont
Fandom: Castlevania
Gender: Male
Age: Late 20s
Time Period: 1698. After defeating Dracula at the end of the first game, and shortly after learning how to undo Dracula’s curse prior to the second game.
Wing Color: A blue so light that most would call it white.
History: Few details are given about Simon in-game, and it’s not always easy to tell what’s canon, what’s fanon, and what’s been retconned into and out of canon. For the sake of this RP, I’ll assume that Castlevania: Legends, Castlevania 64, Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness, Castlevania: Circle of the Moon, and the events of Castlevania: Judgment (but not information about the character presented during them) are non-canonical.
What is clear is that Simon comes from a long line of vampire hunters known as the Belmont clan. This legacy begins with Leon Belmont, who’s fiancee, Sara, was kidnapped by a vampire named Walter Bernhard, who liked to toy with humans by supplying them with weapons to try to fight their way through his castle. Leon was given a whip produced with alchemy, and he successfully made his way through the castle, but in the end he was unable to harm Walter. Walter returned Sara, but Leon soon discovered that she had been bitten and was turning into a vampire. Leon was forced to kill her with the whip and in doing so it became the Vampire Killer, a powerful weapon made to battle vampires and their servants. He returned to Walter and killed him using his newly-strengthened weapon, only to find out that his best friend, Mathias, had become a vampire and had been manipulating Walter the whole time. Mathias escaped, but Leon swore revenge.
It appears that Mathias took control of Walter’s castle and renamed himself “Dracula”. If that is the case, the Belmonts had at least two more encounters with him before Simon. This first was Trevor Belmont, who fought Dracula alongside three allies, including Dracula’s son, Alucard. He then helped a devil forgemaster fight against him. The second was Christopher Belmont, who was forced to face Dracula twice, and to battle his own son.
In 1691, Simon Belmont fought his way through Dracula’s castle just as his ancestors had before him. After defeating Dracula, though, he found that things didn’t play out for him as they had for his ancestors. He became ill, and the wounds from his battle against Dracula would not fully heal. Worse, Dracula’s undead servants continued roam throughout Transylvania and Wallachia, attacking people, especially at night. From the second game’s dialogue, it seems like they were particularly drawn to Simon. One night a mysterious young woman approached Simon in a dream and told him that he was under Dracula’s curse, and that the only way to free himself would be to find Dracula’s remains and destroy them in the ruins of Castlevania.
Personality: Like with his history, very little is given about Simon’s personality initially, but many things can be determined from his behavior in Judgment. Simon is extremely dutious. For him, his whole life is about two things. The struggle against Dracula and vampirekind, and the continuation of the Belmont line. He has studied his whole life to fight vampires, he has an extensive knowledge of the vampires of his world, and of his family history. He has a particular admiration of Trevor Belmont. He still feels some uncertainty in his own strength, believing that it was the power of the Vampire Killer that allowed him to defeat Dracula, and that his own weakness lead to his being cursed.
Strengths:
Physical
- Knows how to fight using several types of weapons, but most of all the Vampire Killer.
- Although he cannot use any magic on his own, he can use magic energy to draw out the inner power of magic items, performing a powerful attack known as an “item crash” or increasing the power of his whip.
Mental
- Knowledge of the strengths and weaknesses of vampires and the humans and other creatures that serve them.
- Knowledge of the use of various magical and holy items, and the ability to quickly learn the use of those he doesn’t know.
Emotional
- An extremely strong sense of duty. Once he decides to do something, he won’t stop until it is done.
- Family pride. He is a Belmont, first and foremost.
Weaknesses:
Physical
- Basic human weakness. A bullet will kill him as easily as anyone.
- Dracula’s curse. It makes him sick, and wounds from his first battle against Dracula won’t fully heal. Whether the curse would change him into a vampire or not in time is never stated in game, but in Judgment he appears to have marks on his neck, so I’ll assume that’s the nature of his curse.
Mental
- Only knows how to fight using very specific types of weapons.
- Knows nothing of vampires or monsters from other worlds.
Emotional
- Uncertainty. Doesn’t know whether his strength comes from himself, or from the Vampire Killer
- Hatred of vampires and dark creatures. Full vampires in Simon’s world are always evil. If he encounters a vampire he’s likely to attack it as soon as he finds an opening, and even if he doesn’t a vampire will probably never gain his trust.
