History Characters / Castlevania2017

* HangingJudge: Subverted. He looks like one, but is actually a relatively friendly fellow that governs the town with a fair hand and avoids clashing with Prior Sala despite not fully trusting him. [[spoiler:Turns out he isn't quite as noble as we thought]].

* ObfusicatingStupidity: Both Sypha and Alucard tease him and pretend he's a grouchy drunk, but Trevor is very perceptive. He can read the moods of other people and knows how to kill various creatures of the night. When the people of Gresit are attacked, it only takes a few seconds for Trevor to come up with an effective defensive strategy.

* HistoricalDomainCharacter: There actually was a real life [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Count_of_St._Germain Count Saint Germain]].

* UncannyValley: Sala's eyes are ''huge'' when compared to the other characters. It gives him an appropriately unsettling vibe.

* TakeOverTheWorld: When the duo [[spoiler: turn on Alucard, they explain that they'll work out how to move the Castle and find out all of Alucard's secrets to use for their ultimate goal, to make their own empire.]]

* FantasticRacism: Like Carmilla, the rest of the council only views humans as no more than live stock. Lenore is the one potential acception, as she is willing to negotiate with humans who prove to be valuable to their ambitions but even then [[spoiler: like with Hector, she only views them as a pet that can double as a sex slave, at best.]]

* FatalFlaw: Both Distrust and Impatience, [[spoiler: their reasons for trying to seduce and then kill Alucard]]? Because Alucard was training them, but, because he wasn't doing so fast enough nor divulging every little secret of the Castle/Belmont Hold, little of which Alucard knew about anyway (it's implied that the areas Alucard was purposely avoiding, were his old bedroom, and his fathers quarters, both emotionally painful places for Alucard, not, as they thought, places with powerful artifacts/information), They literally [[spoiler: died trying to steal the secrets of a man, who was not holding that many to begin with]].

* AffablyEvil: As the self-proclaimed Diplomat of the council, Lenore is courtious in her interactions with Hector rather than trying to kill or torture him like the rest of the council. [[spoiler: This doesn't stop her from giving him a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown or making him a slave at the end of the third season.]]

* FairPlayVillain: She presents herself as this; when trying to reason with Hector, she repeatedly asks him what she wants and rebukes any notion of coercing him into doing what she wants because she believes in commerce--both parties get a little of what they want. [[spoiler: Ultimately zig-zagged, though. The season ends with her getting ''ALL'' of what she wanted: a loyal forgemaster who can create monsters that can't betray them as well as a brand new pet/SexSlave that she can enjoy for herself. That said, she goes out of her way to tell her sisters that Hector will be pampered in his new role, explicitly stating "He gets ''something'' out of this" without any real reason to make such a promise.]]

* Expy: It's not apparent right away, but as the season goes on it's easy to see that Lenore is [[the series' version of The Succubus boss from the games, purposefully using her sexuality to manipulate and control Hector]].

* MultiMeleeMaster: Trevor is proficient in multiple weapons from swords, spears, throwing knives, axes, whips and flails due to his training as a Belmont. He usually fights with a sword and a long range weapon like a whip or flail at the same time.

* OnlySaneWoman: She's the most willing of her sisters to question Carmilla's plans, though she backs down with some prodding.

* AdaptationalWimp: As a group, the three of them (plust Grant) defeated Dracula in the games, and likewise, Trevor can do it without any help whatsoever. In this series, Dracula thoroughly trounces the three of them (even while weakened due to blood-starvation), and only dies because he allows Alucard to kill him.

* AdaptationalBadass: Dracula in the games gets defeated by the Belmont clan on a regular basis. Here he takes on Trevor, Alucard and Sypha at the same time [[spoiler: and they can't beat him. They only kill him because he allows them to.]] This is after it's noted by Godbrand he hasn't fed in a very long time.

* TheDreaded: Godbrand states that even in his current weakened state, he still wouldn't want to test out trying to take Dracula on. This later gets verified with [[spoiler:how easily Dracula tosses around Alucard, Trevor, and Sypha who, just prior to this confrontation, had ran through his generals with relative ease]].

* TheBrute: She is explicitly referred to as the "fighter" of the quartet and certainly packs the physique that goes along with it.

* EvilCounterpart: She serves as one to Sypha in season 3. They are both redheads whose romantic relationships are in focus for the season. They have both used the line "good boy" when talking to their respective love interest but while Sypha was joking, [[spoiler:Lenore really means it. Sypha might wear the pants in her relationship but she actually respects Trevor while Lenore only sees Hector as a pet.]] Sypha in season 3 is something of a BloodKnight who enjoys adventures while Lenore is a self-declared diplomat but Syhpha is benevolent and will work with anyone for the greater good as seen by her friendship with Dhampyr Alcuard, Syhpa looks down on humanity and is working on turning Eastern Europe into a farm.

* ImpliedLoveInterest: She seems to at the very least be interested by Trevor even upon their first meeting in season 1, and outright blushes when Alucard hints at her possible attraction. This evolves into antagonistic flirting in season 2, and they finally consumate their relationship during their travels across the backcountry between season 2 & 3.

* NumberTwo: To Carmilla, Morana's job is said to be organizer and is the one that makes Carmilla's insane schemes to make them doable. Morana is also willing to consider the potential of Carmilla's plans before she considers how possible it is.

* FightsLikeANormal: Isaac can turn the deceased into demons, and yet when he fights, he uses only his knife and his spiked belt with great efficiency. [[spoiler:He made short work of Godbrand using completely mundane methods, too.]] Justified, as the act of forging is shown to take some time, which wouldn't exactly be practical in a straight-up fight.

* TakeOverTheWorld: When the duo [[spoiler: turn on Alucard, they explain that they'll work out how to move the Castle and find out all of Alucard's secrets to use to make their own empire.]]

* TakeOverTheWorld: What really turned the duo against Alucard was his disinterest in fixing the Castle's travel mechanism. Just as they're about to kill him, they reveal that this and him not yet teaching the magic (justified on his part, as they were having difficulty with normal readings) as signs of his betrayal, as their ultimate goal is to make their own empire.

* VampiresAreSexGods: Subverted. Alucard certainly looks the part between his good looks and constantly open shirts, but when Sumi and Taka come into his bedroom to seduce and have sex with him - he's astonished and out of his element. So he's [[{{Uke}} completely the passive bottom partner with both siblings]]. This contrasts with the scene between Lenore and Hector which happened concurrently with his.

* BestialityIsDepraved: Her sisters are grossed out when they discover that she intends to use their pet Hector as a SexSlave.
