History Characters / CastlevaniaRPG

* {{Bishonen}} / DudeLooksLikeALady: Often mistaken for female by those who don't know him, until he tells them his gender. Backfires when it makes Dracula come out of the closet. Turns into the greatest thing ever when it allows him to bed [[LipstickLesbian Princess]].

* BalefulPolymorph: Darkie.

* DesignatedHero: Not so much "AntiHero" as "Consummate Opportunist"; he's more apt to take a bribe than sell out his team.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair

* CrazyAwesome: To date, Bucky is the only character in the comic to force Death to admit defeat.

* ThoseTwoBadGuys

* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses: [[spoiler:Even if they're not of royal blood.]]

** Turns into the greatest thing ever when it allows him to bed [[LipstickLesbian Princess]].`

* KnightInShiningArmor: Ignoring the naivete, his personality at the outset was this.
** Recently received some shiny new (green) armor, so he fits the appearance as well.
* [[spoiler: PutOnABus: He and Princess retire at the end of the honeymoon arc. The author states in the comments it was either retire the characters, both in and out of universe or the only thing left would be to kill one of them for drama and have it stick this time]]

** NaiveNewcomer: During Year One, at least.

** {{Shotoclone}}: Her "self-defense" moves she uses while in Princess Mode include what are obviously the [[KamehameHadoken Hadoken]] and {{Shoryuken}}.

* AccidentalInnuendo: In his first (well, second) appearance, he realizes he's forgotten "[his] mighty sword", and voices said realization aloud. Cue comment from Darkmoon.

* [[HornyDevils Horny Angel]]

** BladeBelowTheShoulder: After assimilating a sword.

What would Castlevania be without Dracula? ''[[VideoGame/CastlevaniaCurseOfDarkness Curse of Darkness]]'', that's what. As always, Dracula is an extremely powerful vampire who ushers in darkness, feasts on the blood of virgins, and gets his ass kicked and revives along with his castle once every hundred or so years from 1100-something to 1999. However, ''this'' Dracula is notably more enterprising, fashion-conscious, and [[spoiler:gay]] than in other depictions, and isn't above taking a fall to get some time off from the Belmonts. Dracula turned Darkmoon personally, and as such treats him like a second son (because the first one was too goody-goody).

Dracula was defeated by Bunny, Darkie, and Pig, and briefly resurrected as a cat until [[spoiler:Raye went for a power-play]].

** Turns into the greatest thing ever when it allows him to bed [[LipstickLesbian Princess]].

* MightyGlacier: He's the medieval fantasy equivalent of an assault robot, so he qualifies.

The world-renowned [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda hero hailing from the land of Hyrule]], Link initially shows up as a cameo character alongside [[VideoGame/ChronoTrigger Lucca]], [[VideoGame/{{Metroid}} Samus]], and [[CastlevaniaCircleOfTheMoon Nathan]], with whom he formed a "party" with for a short while. On his way to defeat Dracula, he gets caught up in fighting Moldorm (a.k.a. "Giant Swirly Boss") after the worm repeatedly knocks him off the stage into the floor below, and Link eventually expires. Shows up later in Hell after Darkmoon is inadvertently [[TurnUndead turned]] by Katrina, and soon gets pulled back to his now-skeletal body when Katrina brings back Darkmoon. Link defeated Sindra and earned his freedom, but Hell can't seem to get enough of him, and Link is often pulled back into the fiery abyss to play part in some scheme by Damaris. Hell has seemed to calm down somewhat, so Link has passed the role of Hero of Time to Bucky, and now owns an armor shop in Jova/Veros/whatever.

--->'''Melinda''': Whoever trained you in magic must be so disappointed. Losing in a sorcery duel. I wonder what sort of advice he'd have for you know...
--->'''Katrina''': ... ''[Walks forward and hits Melinda]'' He'd probably tell me to cheat.

* PleasePutSomeClothesOn: Shift said that when accidentally destroys her clothes when he put the curse back on her on [[http://www.cvrpg.com/archive/2009/03/27 this page]], which results in HandOrObjectUnderwear.
* {{Punny Name}}/{{Meaningful Name}}: Both still apply

A somewhat-disenchanted Holy Warrior that made friends with Darkmoon shortly after "graduating" from (ie, getting kicked out of) the Holy Warrior Academy. Initially naive and idealist, his time among Darkmoon's company has given him a...safer view on life. Is currently in a relationship with Princess.

* KnightInShiningArmor: Ignoring the naivety, his personality at the outset was this.
** Recently received some shiny new (green) armor, so he applies in appearance as well.

* BareFistedMonk: How she fights

* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses [[spoiler:(Even if they're not of royal blood)]]
* LipstickLesbian: Claims to be such, and makes no attempts to hide it. Her first response to being rescued is to kiss her rescuer--which happened to be [[LesYay Katrina]]

* PrincessesPreferPink
** Also lampshaded before she learns how to switch costumes on the fly from Zelda/Sheik
* UnstoppableRage: When [[spoiler:Alec is killed by the Elder God]]

Darkmoon, Katrina, and Alec's respective familiars/animal companions. Bunny is a KillerRabbit, Darkie is a bird forever stuck as a bat due to a polymorph spell-gone-wrong, and Sigurd is a pig - a pig that can swim, carry a grown man in full combat gear without complaining (leading Alec to refer to him as his "steed"), and bite the ankles of ghouls.

* BalefulPolymorph: Darkie
* KillerRabbit: Bunny

Link defeated Sindra and earned his freedom, but Hell can't seem to get enough of him, and Link is often pulled back into the fiery abyss to play part in some scheme by Damaris. Hell has seemed to calm down somewhat as of recently, so Link has passed the role of Hero of Time to Bucky, and now owns an armor in Jova/Veros/whatever.

* MasterSwordsman (Pun intended)

* YouFailBiologyForever: His ability to use his bow while in skeletal form is explained as "nocking the string between [his] joints" and "having really good bone density" (in place of having muscles and tendons).

A skeletal, undead chicken that Link meets while in Nivelheim, who becomes his close companion and business partner. Bucky aids Link in collecting the Hell's Arms, and later aids Darkmoon in altering the fate of Alt-Alec to prevent the {{WhamEpisode}}'s events from actually occurring. Bucky receives the Master Sword and Link's Hylian Shield when the latter acquires the Hell Sword and Shield (actually, Link had to convince Bucky to trade him for it, as Bucky wanted the Hell Sword for himself), and takes up Link's mantle as the Hero of Time.
