Topic: My favorite classic Castlevania thread

[Super Waffle]

Does anyone remember this thing from about five years ago?

It has recently occurred to me that, rather than going about the overcomplicated task of trying to seduce his son to the Dark Side while hanging out in an upside-down hidden castle in another dimension and relying a dead sorcerer who had already failed him twice, Count Dracula should have just ordered one of his pals to capture Maria and use her as a virgin sacrifice to bring himself back to living immediately after she stumbled into the castle looking for Richter.

Now, I know what you're thinking. "oh noez, Hulkster! You can't kill her off so quickly! That would ruin a perfectly good Belmont off-shoot storyline and a boss battle in the Saturn and PSP ports of SOTN!" But hear me out.

Think about it. The adult Maria Renard, lying helpless and unconscious atop Dracula's coffin. The only thing covering her nude form is a thin pale blanket pulled up to her collarbone. The Succubus watches nearby holding Maria's folded green dress, after being the one left to prepare her body for the sacrifice. Shaft's ghost leads the ceremony and, in the ultimate act of irony, Bad Richter is the one to plunge the knife into her. Her final blood-curdling scream as her blood empties onto the coffin echo through the castle, and the new form of Dracula is born into the living world. Hearing this, Alucard spends the remainder of the game in a near-invincible hotblooded rage as he takes brutal revenge on all of his father's minions and finally the Dark King himself for the poor girl's murder.

It would be epic.


For those of you who still disagree with me, I only have this to say:

That is all.

I wonder if it still gets people as angry and offended as they were back then.

Or maybe they think it's at least an mprovement over whatever Cox is writing into canon these days.

Thing is, Alucard wouldn't have met her by that time. Why would he go on a roaring rampage of revenge for someone he doesn't even know?

Yeah that doesn't make any sense what-so-ever. I can only conclude that whomever wrote that story was a little too romantically infatuated with the Alucard & Maria thing in SotN to even think straight.

Or they just watched the first 15 minutes of Lust for a Vampire too many times.

Why you didnt quote in a way that we could see who and where they posted it? I wanted to see the responses.

Also in the fanfic world, Maria isnt virgin anymore. lol

Thanks Waffle. Its fun to see they comparing Maria to Storm from X-men. Serio talking about "Dracula can only be revived using virgin's blood once every 100 years" when its not written anywhere and we have already seem that happening in-game without this huge span of time. LOL

Its good to see the past sometimes. They even said "Maria isnt virgin" like I said. xD

*That moment when you discover that X is saying this in front of the writer, Waffle, without knowing and giggles because of the sincerity*

[VladCT]

So Serio used to go by Long John Silver here? Well, how about that?

[Super Waffle]

They even said "Maria isnt virgin" like I said. xD

what's the deal with that?

Oops??! I never realized that Super Waffle wrote that till I checked it out...only AFTER commenting  My apologies Super Waffle.    Now I'm the one not thinking straight.

About that what? You didnt knew?

Its funny to see that someone years ago said that and me without knowing said the same thing. Thats it.

I've discovered only reading the original topic too xD

Yeah, but why do different people keep insisting on it?

Did I miss something about Maria's backstory?

[Lelygax]

I thought you already knew about that too, since they mentioned this in the very same topic.
Thats why we are "insisting" in this joke.

[Super Waffle]

That's scandalous.

Also I don't think that's canon.
