Suprise, tiny, character-update:

Old-man Jonathan Morris lives. And he's the hottest old man you'll see today.

This character portrait is the first thing about Jonathan that I've liked.  He's not my favourite Castlevania character (tbh I don't like POR), and the awful artwork for POR doesn't help, but wow, he looks amazing here!  You guys really have got the *perfect* artist on board for Umbra (that isn't Ayami Kojima herself).

Wow. This, right here, is one grandpa I would go to great lengths to at least have the honor of meeting if I was in the Castlevania universe. Bonus points for him being one of my favorite hunters, too. Nice work!

Junki will be greatly satisfied with the feedback :) Junki's own style has evolved a lot, so you'll notice Jonathan here is looking even better than Julius, technique wise.

I'm also glad you liked Jonathan, because he was certainly one of the hardest characters to mess with and conceptualize. Coming from the "animesque" past, the expectations for him as an old man, etc etc, too much hanging here.

Dang, Jonny-boy went from Daddy Issues to "your daughter calls me 'daddy' too", 10/10.
It is precisely because it never cared, that people do care.  It's something which it's lacking, because that which it has, it has lackluster of.

It's been long enough, so another hint is in order.

What does this image depict?

I was going to throw in the suggestion of jar of dirt, and start singing about it, Jack Sparrow style, bt I think you're right.  The ashes of Dracula, perhaps is most likely?  Or some other vampire.
