[[NighInvulnerable Of course, that hasn't stopped him in the least.]] He '''''always''''' finds a way to [[BackFromTheDead come back]], [[WhyWontYouDie no matter what]]. It's gotten to the point where people see him as a god, or something of a god, as [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by him in ''Rondo of Blood'' and ''Symphony of the Night''.

::'''Golem'''

--->"Where is place for me?"

An artificial being originally created by Carmilla to mindlessly guard ruins. Somehow, its arrival in the time rift granted it sapience, along with the ability to question its lot in life.

Tropes associated with the golem:
* BreathWeapon: Its hyper move.
* DarkIsNotEvil
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Oddly, the character that was dismissed as a plot non-entity has the storyline that players largely agree the game got ''absolutely right''.
* {{Expy}}: It could pass for [[FrankensteinsMonster the Creature]] in a pinch, if not by matching his physical appearance.
* HeroicSacrifice: In the end, it chooses to repair the time rift and save humanity, even if it means never being able to think again.
* HulkSpeak
* MightyGlacier: It has an admittedly fast roll, but otherwise fits this trope in design.
* PinocchioSyndrome
* ShockAndAwe
* ShoutOut: "Do not want."
* WhatMeasureIsAMook
* TheWoobie: Its own "Mama" finds the concept of it thinking for itself to be absurd. And even after Death affirms its sapience as close to achieving humanity, he tells it that it ''should'' be mindless.

The next Belmont after Richter to wield the Vampire Killer.

Julius has the honor of being the one who beat Dracula for good, sealing Castlevania in an eclipse (thereby denying Dracula's soul access to the stone that was keeping it out of the cycle of reincarnation long enough to resurrect, but the battle cost him his memory, and he lived as an amnesiac for over thirty years under the name 'J.'

An artist whose daughters were killed during WorldWarI, Brauner [[MadArtist went insane]] [[GoMadFromTheRevelation from the grief]] and decided to become a vampire and KillAllHumans. He decided to use Castlevania as his base of operations for this purpose, but also decided that Dracula's failure rate was too great for the Dark Lord to be allowed to join in on the fun, and used his paintings to keep Dracula's power sealed up and easily controllable. (Death was ''not'' amused.)

(It is worth noting at this point that in the whole of the {{Castlevania}} series, Brauner is the only character to call out Dracula for dying so ridiculously often and never accomplishing anything.)
