I've decided to create a separate thread about any further discussion regarding a potential Carmilla based Castlevania game (note: she's not the same Carmilla from the Castlevania game which I'm trying to figure how to make them separate or rather the games take place in a different universe than what's considered 'canon') that I've mentioned about in several threads now which I do know for a fact that sprite has already been created based on the 'concepts' I've
presented in another
thread.
Well basically let me explain about my story ideas I have (of course though there maybe people here who might have better ideas that they're welcome to share).
So I'm thinking of splitting two games, the first one being similar to
Castlevania: Lecarde Chronicles for which it doesn't involve Dracula but rather Carmilla (whose original name was Mircalla Karnstein) solving her own 'family issues' inside the Karnstein Family Castle somewhere in Europe that would look similar to Katharina Von Viltheim's from the Lecarde Chronicles and perhaps the antagonist is her own father who made a deal with Count Dracula during the 16th century which Dracula turned the entire Karnstein bloodline into Vampires and also their castle itself becomes alot like Dracula's & Katharina's. Of course I've also mentioned about the prospect of Mircalla get's betrayed by her own family (due to some reason..) and they put her into Torpor (Vampire: The Masquerade term for vampires sleeping for centuries) until Carmilla wakes up during the early 1870s and begins plotting revenge which she returns to the Family Castle which she is surprised that it's rather "changed" all these years than she remembered (like the Castle being bigger, and perhaps updated and "remodeled" from centuries following into a Rocco/Gothic/art nouveau/Victorian mixing in with it's original 16th century architecture in some places).
Or alternatively, I don't know if the creator of the "Lecarde Chronicles" posts in this forum but if so then I wonder if it's okay we could use the Von Viltheims instead of the Karnsteins which might be easier which Carmilla could easily be Mircalla Von Viltheim (or Carmilla Von Vilheim) and her mother could simply be Katharina and instead of Efrain Lecarde going after and destroying her, it's actually Carmilla during the late 18th century (or maybe it could be still the 1870s though and it's not like the Lecarde chronicles is 'canon' at anyway but rather a 'alternative universe' take on it).
As for the second game which is perhaps the easiest, it's when Carmilla/Mircalla goes after Dracula no doubtfully during the late 19th century (the 1870s) which she then meets a certain "Laura Belmont" who then become 'lovers'...
I wish I could write more on the story subject but this is all I can write for now but if anyone has a better 'story' idea I would be more than happy to hear it.
As for Carmilla's Vampiric powers, she pretty can access to all of them such as shape shifting into mist, shadows, bats (single and swarms when 'teleporting'), wolves, cats, owls, and even having her own demon form, flight, enhanced strength/speed/senses, Psychic Powers, Telekinesis, Pyrokinesis, Lasombra/Obtenebration style Shadow Manipulation (like "Arms of the Abyss" and such), Tremere/Thaumaturgy style Blood Sorcery, Necromancy, Demon Summoning (or using hellfire as a weapon), or basically any form of magic she can get her hands on or basically let's just say she'll be just as powerful as Dracula himself....
As for her feeding methods, I could imagine not only the traditional method (neck biting...if somehow that could be portrayed in a side scrolling game) but also Legacy of Kain style feeding including shooting a projectile that causes the victim's blood shooting out to her and a more powerful spell that causes everyone's blood go to her which quickly replenishes her blood meter. Speaking of which blood is basically her health meter of course her major weaknesses are holy items of course like crosses, holy water, etc that the Belmonts carry.
Well this is all I can write for now but if anyone is willing to add anything to this I would be glad.
