Let's not forget that The Lost Soul found in the castle could have something to do with it, too.

If satan truly has taken Trevor's body to become Alucard than the lost soul could easily be Trevor's.

But at the end of the one of the demo gameplay videos, Trevor encounters The Lost Soul after defeating The Executioner. As Trevor prepares to enter a huge door, The Lost Soul comes out of it and tells him, "You cannot pass yet, Trevor," and then immediately departs. (My mind's a sponge for details lol.)
They'd have to be two different characters.

Don't remember that part...

Was that CONFIRMED to be the lost soul that said that?

But if thats the case the lost soul has to be someone not mentioned yet considering Trevor's part of the game is the first part.

it would mean that the lost soul would have to have been there before Trevor,Alucard, and Simon's time.

Yes. Watch the end of this video Castlevania: Mirror of Fate - 27 Minutes Full Demo footage

He's also in the GameInformer cover art.

Very nice screens, shame about no new trailer though.

Trevor=Alucard definitely seems very likely now.

That Death statue is such a tease.

Damn, the artwork and sceens look wonderful. Though, I DO see a stark contrast compared the the first game. It's more colorful, even somewhat whimsical. I'm kinda wondering how they are going to match that musically, because the tone with the locations and designs looks completely different than the first LoS. It's almost looking similar to an IGA castle with the colors they've got going for them.

Old tweet from Cox:

Q: If Alucard is in the game, and Alucard is Dracula's son, and Gabriel is Dracula, does that mean Trevor = Alucard?
A: No.

However, the similarities between Alucard and Trevor are very clear. Maybe Alucard is like a dark half to Trevor or something? That's the only thing that I can think of.

[Kingshango]

You know what Trevorcard reminds me of?


And just looking at Trevorcard, it just screams demonic possession is at work.

From here on out, I now dub Alucard in the LOS universe: Nelo Angelcard! 

[e105beta]

Alucard =\= Trevor
Alucard = Trevor + Another Person

If we assume Cox isn't lying to our faces, then that would be a very possible explanation. I wouldn't be surprised if the Wandering Soul is Zobek and ends up possessing Trevor, turning him into Alucard. It would explain that one impression someone wrote about Trevor transforming into a shadowy version of himself, as maybe Alucard is akin to a split personality. And if Zobek can possesses people, it would be one possible reason why he looks different from his original look at the end of LoS.

That being said, I really don't buy the Satan theory.

[Chernabogue]

I'm pretty sure Satan won't appear in MoF, his big role will be in LoS2 but he could be mentioned. The big bad guy is Gabriel.

[Neobelmont]

Trevor+lolipop guy spirit soul thing= Alucard

all in a nut shell like this

Wouldn't be the first time.

[e105beta]

Wouldn't be the first time.

True, but if I'm not mistaken, I don't think he's ever lied about plot matters.

Besides, if I assume he's not lying, then I can speculate without it feeling like a crapshoot

So by all account's it's really just 3 playable characters in Mirror of Fate as oppose to 4 as advertised since one character is apparently two. Which is a shame since I really wanted Trevor and Alucard to be seperate people.

Now for Nelocard here, there's definitly some demonic possession here, like straight up evil corruption Even his battle cross looks evil to a point that it's no longer shaped like a cross anymore. He's probably not aware that he's being controlled by someone (a little lean on the 4th wall there) and thinks he was brought back from the dead by "fate" to kill Dracula. Little does he know, he's being played like a puppet by a dark force.

Alucard will certainely have different gameplay than Trevor.
