Entries:

theplottwist's Merman's Delight 1st Place
A popular drink in the underworld. The Merman blood mixed in gives it a bittersweet, acidic taste. The decorative eye is not really a Merman's, though.

Dracula9's Blood Dreg Keg 1st Place
A cask filled with the leftover blood from vampiric meals within the castle. Often given to the lowest-ranking creatures as a form of gift from their ever-generous master. This frequently leads to rather...interesting situations.

Partial Blooverine's Water
A cup of water, or rather, a poor drawing of some water with ice(?) upon closer inspection. You'd like to pretend that the coaster has pretty doily patterns in it.

Edit:  How do they make the sprites appear in another way? I get a small key to the side and you have to click to see them in big... why? xD

Upload it to imgur, copy the image's url (the IMAGE's url, not the page's url), and paste it here like so:

Code: [Select]

Except that instead of the URL to my image, it's yours.

Thanks dudes!

I have a suggestion: There is one kind of enemy based on horror movies lacking on the Castlevania series: aliens. So, my suggestion is to design an alien enemy sprite.

It can be any style: 8-bit, 16-bit, look like it came from one of the Gameboy games. No matter. It just has to be an alien in a convincing Castlevania style.
