That makes Symphony's manual even more wrong. If Dracula was "born" in 1094, and Symphony is set in 1797, it would seem much more logical to say that Dracula was estimated to be 700 years old at the time.

Well the manual was written before LoI, I mean around 800 works though it's a bit of a stretch.  :)

I still think LOI was unnecessary, and it drives nuts like me up the wall... not because it's bad game, it's rather fun, but they could have made the same game and given it a 15th-century setting.

However then it would contradict both cva and rondo which both stated dracula existed way before the cv3 incident.

^ as well as the msx manual, granted it has a lot of inconsistensies when you take the other titles into consideration.

Yup, it talks about dracula coming back every hundred years and the people banning together to fight the constant evil they face in there time it also puts the original in the 13 or 14 hundreds.

Nope otherwise how would he be 18 in 2035? :P

Apparently his birthdate was 2017, during a specific solar eclipse cycle that appears every 18 years and 11 days.

I believe the other "candidates" were born in 1999. Graham, Dario and Dmitrii were born in that year.

No! He was 18 in AoS, which took place in 2035, so that means that he was born in 2017 (18 years after Dracula was completely destroyed).
