Editing Castlevania (section)

===Castlevania: Symphony Of The Night (Castlevania 9)===
Now this is the one people probably remember fondest, the PS1 darling which paved the way for an entirely new genre of gaming as well as a more in-depth look at edgelord darling Alucard, who was now the lone playable character.

After the intro which was just the end of Rondo - even including the part where Richter can get his ass bailed out by a little girl. Dracula was considered very much dead at this point with absolutely no hope of returning again...

Except not. 1796 rolls around and Richter Belmont ends up missing while Castlevania returns with seemingly no presence of its owner. Alucard is awakened, concerned about what this all means, and he is also accompanied by a grown-up Maria Renard on her own hunt for Richter.

As it turns out, Richter was indeed here all along, claiming himself to be the new owner for some stupid reason. Alucard is given some glasses by Maria and manages to undo Richter's mind control to reveal the real perpetrator: ''SHAFT!'' Shaft was a cultist dedicated to bringing back Dracula and wipe out the Belmont Clan. He fails. Drac re-extends his offer to his son to join forces and kill humanity and avenge his mother (Since Al's mother was burned for being a witch), Al tells the old man to stuff it (His mom made him promise that he wouldn't come to try and wipe out humanity despite being a bunch of pricks). Cue one road trip through a Castlevania turned upside-down, and they fight again. Alucard manages to do away with his father and reminds him of his mother's last wish, which finally gets through to the old bastard (even though he comes back to do the same shit again). With nothing left mooring him, Alucard resolves to end his damned bloodline and vanish into nothingness while Maria is conflicted because she kinda got the hots for a half-vampire.
