1''[[http://www.cvrpg.com/ Castlevania RPG]]'' is a sprite comic that spoofs ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}'' and other {{Role Playing Game}}s. It was originally supposed to be a co-operative effort alternating between sprite comics by the main author and his sister, who also writes and draws ''Webcomic/DanAndMabsFurryAdventures''. It's set in the same universe but with original characters that were adapted from a Forum RolePlayingGame done by the creator. The story somewhat parallels ''Castlevania'' circa-''[[VideoGame/CastlevaniaCircleOfTheMoon Circle of the Moon]]'', but mostly the cast just gets into random hijinks involving stopping Dracula and all evil, along with getting some beef jerky, catnip and booze. The cast includes:
2
3* '''Darkmoon''': An ensouled vampire with an insatiable lust for money and barmaids.
4* '''Alec''': An extremely androgynous Holy Warrior with a penchant for jerky.
5* '''Katrina''': Mage-turned-Catgirl via a curse.
6* '''Princess''': The comic's requisite princess--who happens to have lesbian tendencies.
7* '''Angel''': An Archangel sent by God to aid the heroes on their quest.
