Inspired by the Food post in "Off Topic" by Shiroi Koumori
I would like to make a Castlevania Trivia topic, I will start with a Castlevania Trivia Question and the first person read it answers it then asks another one for the next person to answer... (Its more fun if you don't look it up. You lose nothing by getting it wrong.) Lets test our Castlevania knowledge!
First question,
In Aria of sorrow, Julius mode has all of of simons original 5 Subweapons except stopwatch and....?
(I know... easy)
-
Knife.
In which town from Simon's Quest does Stage 1 of Rondo of Blood take place in?
-
Aljiba.
What's Trevor Belmont's middle initial?
-
C.
In Aria of Sorrow, Legion will not drop its soul unless you complete a certain task. What is it?
-
Break it's shell completely.
Trust me, i know that too well. My normal AoS run will be forever incomplete because of that.
Name the 3 glyphs that make up Dominus.
-
Hatred, Agony, Anger
What song do you have to play to get the crown in stage 2 (Harmony of Despair)?
-
:'(
Shouldn't we have the tears of the emoticon in red? This is a CV forum, after all.
What item in Circle of the Moon allows for a *very* special transformation, and how can it be found?
-
:'(
Shouldn't we have the tears of the emoticon in red? This is a CV forum, after all.
What item in Circle of the Moon allows for a *very* special transformation, and how can it be found?
The Bear Ring. If I recall, it's a drop from an enemy that only appears in one room. That room is hidden. From the room in the opening scene, drop down the pit. About halfway down, the wall is breakable. Once in that room, there is a portion of the ceiling that is breakable and leads to the room where the enemy is. FYI, the enemy is very fast and will suicide into the wall if you aren't fast enough.
The ring causes the combination of the Pluto and Black Dog cards to turn you into a bear instead of a skeleton.
In Classicvanias, how many times can the whip be powered up?
-
Twice, sometimes even thrice.
When did Koji Igarashi first become introduced to the Castlevania series?
-
Rondo of Blood.
Aside from a Potion, what are Aria of Sorrow's Boss Rush rewards?
-
Positron Rifle is the one I remember clearly
What stage has been the most prominently featured throughout the series?
-
I don't know for sure, im thinking excalibur, valmanway or some handgun.
And my guess for the latest question is clocktower?
-
The Stairway to Dracula.
In Curse of Darkness, what Item can only be found with the help of a save-file of another Castlevania game?
-
The Moai Head. Other other game is LoI.
Why didn't Shanoa die when she used Dominus to defeat Dracula?
-
Albus sacrificed his soul for her.
In bloodlines, how do you skip the merman area in stage 1?
-
...oh man, we're stumped aren't we? ;D
-
Eric Lecarde's pole vault.
(almost forgot about it ;D)
What is Carmilla's real full name?
-
Mircalla Karnstein. Or was it Millarca. Something like that.
Who were the original four protagonists of Castlevania 64?
-
We're talking about the ones who were originally planned, right? Reinhardt, Carrie, Cornell, and some guy named...Coller, was it?
Now for my question, in Aria of Sorrow, the three souls required for the good ending shared something in common, what is it?
-
They all allow for Soma to transform
In SotN, there's a sword that when you attack, a specific word appears on the screen. What is the sword's name, and what is the word?
-
In SotN, there's a sword that when you attack, a specific word appears on the screen. What is the sword's name, and what is the word?
Rune Sword, "Verboten".
Dracula X (SNES) has a very easy password to get to Dracula. Describe the password.
-

You're thinking of the souls needed to access the secret area, I'm talking about the souls you have to equip when you're going to fight Graham. I'm giving you another shot at this.

Giant Bat, Flame Demon, and Succubus. Right?
In Harmony of Despair, what was the hidden item in Stage 6?
-
In Harmony of Despair, what was the hidden item in Stage 6?
What exactly do you mean? Like, there's a bunch of itens hidden on the stage but I'm guessing "Konami Man".
How can one enhance the aroma of their soup?
-
Giant Bat, Flame Demon, and Succubus. Right?
Yes, what do they have in common?
How can one enhance the aroma of their soup?
With laurels, I believe.
Anyway, while my question is yet to be correctly answered, I might as well keep on trucking. Simon Belmont and Albus share one thing in common, what is it?
-
Yes, what do they have in common?
They're Dracula's basic powers, aren't they? With Giant Bat obviously being batform (and Dracula's second form supposedly being a bat), Flame Demon being his attacks (Hellfire, and I guess Dark Inferno?), and Succubus being his blood-drinkingness (since the soul restores health).
Simon Belmont and Albus share one thing in common, what is it?
Both are voiced in English by Keith Silverstein. The former in Judgment, the latter in OoE. Coincidentally, both these games feature Shanoa as a playable character.
In Akumajou Dracula X68000, you can find a picture of Simon smoking a blunt, and there are Japanese characters written next to him. What do these say?
-

Fake Simon was here.
Glamdring is known by what name in the English translation of SotN?
-

Damn I love is topic already.
Glamdring is known by what name in the English translation of SotN?
The funny thing is that it ended spelled wrong as "Marsil" haha
EDIT: Just noticed I mixed two completelly different weapons. Know the answer, but will get corrected anyway~
In Castlevania Judgment, Alucard carries a crest on the back of his armor. What is on this crest? And be happy that I did not ask for the name of it xD
-

Glamdring (Gandalf's sword that he found from the troll cave in the Hobbit) is not Marsil (that was misspelled from Narsil, which was King Elendil's sword). So try again~
For your question, if I am not mistaken it kinda looks like angel/cherub thing.

He~ Thanks for being understanding. It is the Dark Blade "Sword forged by the elves".
As for the question, yes it is an angel, but not any angel. It's Michael, the same exact one as Saint Michael Archangel statue on the top of Saint Angelo castle in Rome. Explains well how Alucard makes his blade go all firebrand like that xD Image for reference. (http://us.123rf.com/400wm/400/400/zoomzoom/zoomzoom1104/zoomzoom110400045/9284704-saint-michael-statue-on-the-top-of-castle-sant-angelo-in-rome-italy.jpg)
So, new question:
Why do Sagittarians drop rare items so easily?
-
What exactly do you mean? Like, there's a bunch of itens hidden on the stage but I'm guessing "Konami Man".
Completely missed this post. Yes, you are correct. By "hidden item", I was referring to the bonus ones like Konami Man, Vic Viper, etc. that only enhance your score. Probably should have clarified what I meant, lol. My bad.
-
KKKKKNNNNNNIFFFFFEEEE :o
-
So are we atumped or something?
I was really liking this topic :(
-
I don't even know what question to answer.
-
So, new question:
Why do Sagittarians drop rare items so easily?
A shot in the dark, but.... because they're lucky?
-
Why do Sagittarians drop rare items so easily?
Wait, so that was the question? :o
Since when did we have "Sagittarians" in Castlevania? The only centaur I can think of is Eligor.
A shot in the dark, but.... because they're lucky?
Eh, I wouldn't consider myself "lucky" if I spent my time dropping rare items...
-
Speaking of which, what is the rarest item in Harmony of Dissonance, and which enemy drops it?
-
I don't know the enemy's name but it looks like a small clown creature and he has only one item to drop. But trying to find him is like finding a needle in a haystack. I've only come across that thing once out of all my playthroughs.
-
A shot in the dark, but.... because they're lucky?
Yes, but why are they lucky, in Castlevania terms?

Okay so... I figured that I would phrase my questions in a more "puzzling" manner, since you can simply find every answer on the internet (I refer not specifically to Castlevania, but everything, like "luck Sagittarians"). I though it would be more interesting.
The answer would be anything including the "Lapis Lazuli", since it is a lucky stone for Sagittarians. Like "Because they always have a Lapis Lazuli equipped" for instance. The Lapis Lazuli is a luck stone for the Sagittarians, as this link (http://www.crystalvaults.com/sagittarius-crystals) and this one (http://www.all-gem-stones.com/choice/sagittarius.html) say, and it increases Luck in SotN (and other games too). My bad if it turned to not work xD
Dropping a rare item on Castlevania is affected by Luck rate, so yeah...
Just an addendum, I know the horoscope is pretty much bollocks, and that many places claim differently about the luck stone. All it mattered is that I mentioned one of the signs that included the Lapis Lazuli for it to work out, since it is the only "luck related" item in Castlevania that's also associated with luck on the horoscope.
-
Okay, I assume we need a new question?
Who is Death's English voice actor in Castlevania: Judgment?
(Hint: It is not Travis Willingham, despite my earlier claims it was, and what the web says. I have reviewed the voice clips closely and found out he is a different actor.)
(Second hint: This actor voices another character in the game.)
-
Hoo boy, if that is indeed true, I don't know the exact answer, but if I were to narrow it down, my guess is between Cornell or Golem's voice actor.
-
Hoo boy, if that is indeed true, I don't know the exact answer, but if I were to narrow it down, my guess is between Cornell or Golem's voice actor.
Yeah, I feel like I threw out a somewhat unfair question, lol. I can recognize voices VERY well (so much that people have contemplated why I don't have a job in doing that stuff), so I can figure it out real well.
If there's no answer by tomorrow, I'll just throw out the answer and we'll move on, lol.
EDIT: Okay, no answer. Kirk Thornton (Grant) was the voice of Death. New question! Which Konami teamed developed Legends?
-

That's an easy one: Konami Computer Entertainment Nagoya. I only remember because the acronyms (KCET, KCEN and KCEK) sound real funny to me when spoken on my language xD
"Two heads think better than one."
What enemy best fits this line?
-
Diplocephalus?
Where was Super Castlevania IV's game over theme reused?
-
Circle of the Moon.
1. Dominus ________ is a winged eye with a crown.
2. Dominus ________ is a flaming sword.
3. Dominus ________ is a wyvern.
-
1.Agony
2.Hatred
3.Anger
There is an unused track in Circle of the Moon which is a classic CV tune. What is it?
-
Super Castlevania 4's Level Finished Tune
What was Dracula's second form when John Morris fought him?
-
A small and speedy sorcerer form that resembled Death.
There is a minor difference between the Japanese and American versions of SCVIV's password screen. What is it?
-
The Japanese version has a cross and Jesus, while the American version did not.
How much health does the 1st phase of Dracula have in Portrait of Ruins? ;)
-
How much health does the 1st phase of Dracula have in Portrait of Ruins? ;)
6666, in both forms.
Who is the voice actor of Soma in Harmony of Despair? (Hint: This actor is also one of three actors that played a specific character in BlazBlue)
-
What was Dracula's second form when John Morris fought him?
Isn't that Drolta the evil witch who resurrected Dracula at that time?
-
Isn't that Drolta the evil witch who resurrected Dracula at that time?
Yes it "is".
The main problem with this question is that there is no consensus if that is Drolta or Dracula. I believe it is Drolta, but she's not shown with a staff on her artwork, nor is mentioned anywhere else besides the manual.
Who is the voice actor of Soma in Harmony of Despair? (Hint: This actor is also one of three actors that played a specific character in BlazBlue)
Is that Grant George?
Question:
"Demonic Meggido" would have been called another thing if the writers sticked with the mistranslation of the original word, instead of using the correct one like they did. What would it be?
Hint: I'm not talking about game localizations or translations. I'm talking about a real world mistranslation.
-
Is that Grant George?
This is an acceptable answer. I've read online in several places that he is Erik Davies (one of three actors that voiced Hazama in BlazBlue), but he sounds a LOT like Grant George, too.
-
EDIT: Whoops, sorry. Theplottwist's question hasn't been answered yet.
-
EDIT: Whoops, sorry. Theplottwist's question hasn't been answered yet.
No prob, I'm giving out the answer now, since it's been so long, and to not hold the topic hostage:
The mistranslation would be Demonic Armageddon. Armageddon is a mistranslated word from Har Meggido, which means something like "The Hill of Meggido" where the supposed final battle of good and evil will take place on the end of times.
-
So new question?
-

Nice. Man, we should keep track of what questions stumped the rest and who posted it. ;D Also, perhaps we should give our questions a few days to be answered before revealing it ourselves? Three or four days, maybe?
Anyway, reposting my question pre-edit:
In SOTN, the Paranthropus won't drop a Ring of Varda until you finish the game. What will it drop till then?
-

I agree! I think that a good time would be in 3 days. Sometimes I have this really nice piece of trivia in mind, but can't post it without answering...
So, about your question, this is one of the things that kept me playing SotN while cracking my head on why the hell Paranthropus was not dropping a Ring of Varda. The answer is Turquoise.
My question is:
Only one enemy can speak in SotN. Who is it?
-
Owl knight. Which enemy is more powerful... the white or the black fomor?
-
Owl knight. Which enemy is more powerful... the white or the black fomor?
About the answer, you now got me real confused. I remember another enemy being able to talk, and now that I think about it, Owl Knight can speak... Or can't he? I mean, what the hell is he saying when he sends the Owl against you? The enemy I meant was Frozen Half.
And the answer is White Fomor.
I'll leave the next question for someone else.
-
All I remember is him screaming "NOOO!!!" When you kill his owl. Does that count?
-
All I remember is him screaming "NOOO!!!" When you kill his owl. Does that count?
Well... He doesn't scream. He simply goes to the owl and mourns "Ugh!". However, when sending the Owl to attack you, he seems to speak "I'll get you!" or "I'll catch you!".
-
I seem to remember many more foes in SOTN being able to speak. Like Blade ("Take that!") or Medusa ("Iiiii'm petrifiiiiied!"). But yeah, Owl Knight's one of them if memory serves right.
Next question: the fight with Chaos in AOS was extremely similar to another boss fight in the series. What was it?

Didn't think bosses count....
-
I think he was asking another question...what CV boss fight was similar to the Chaos boss fight...but I can't even figure it out with my google-fu.
-
I know it was a new question, I was talking about him including medusa.
-
:-S My bad!

What Belmonts never actually fight dracula?
-
Soleiyu Belmont? And/or Leon Belmont?
-
Bingo! You get to post the next question. 8)
Mind = Blown
What Belmonts never actually fight dracula?
Leon Belmont and Juste Belmont. Is Reinhardt Schneider a Belmont?
-
Marie Belmont, Zoe Belmont, Delores Belmont, Leon Belmont, Soleiyu Belmont, Sonia's grandfather. some think its debatable whether juste fought the "real" dracula or just a "false" dracula
reinhardt is a belmont, in development his name was originally "schneider belmont"
next question: who's "favorite activity" is castlevania 2095?
hint: its not a hero in a half-shell
-

I don't think this is the correct answer as EstebanT's question can be interpreted in a variety of ways.
The correct literal answer to his question would be "Every single Belmont, including wives, brothers, and those who never got hold of the Vampire Killer".
I think he meant "canon" Belmonts who are playable, and got to the end of the game, and in this case Marie Belmont, Zoe Belmont, Delores Belmont, Soleiyu Belmont, Sonia's grandfather do not count, since some are not canon, others are supporting characters and one is a boss. That's also why I kept Reinhardt questionable.

Wing Nut from Turtles Tournament Fighter
-
My question was stupid and not very specific.
-
Wing Nut from Turtles Tournament Fighter
wrong, its wing nut from turtles tournament fighters
i will ask another question:
sometimes in dos when Soma gets hit/takes damage, he will yell out a specific phrase in japanese. what is he saying?
-
wrong, its wing nut from turtles tournament fighters
u straight up crazy
-
That's also what Soma says. I would know, I speak Cherokee.
-
Not in the face! Anything but the face!!
-
Is that really what he says? I mean you could be lying and I wouldn't be the wiser
-
Is that really what he says? I mean you could be lying and I wouldn't be the wiser
Just a joke.
-
Does he yell "Yagana?" If so he is saying "I'll find a different approach." I think at least.
-
Or is it "yaru na"? I hear that means "not bad."
-
New questions since no one made another one.

The clock tower question was already answered. (13)
Please refer to this question:
What is the rarest item you can obtain in Portrait of Ruin?
-
Ancient Armor, I think w/ (0.5% drop)
Give bosses in CV that could heal and its means of how they do it.
-

How many?
-
How many?
All, from both 2D and 3D Castlevanias.
-
I don't think anyone could name all of the Castlevania bosses that heal themselves, there's just too many, so I'll just name a few.
The Wallman in Order of Ecclesia always have an unlimited supply of Super Potions to negate the amount of damage he takes. The only way to defeat him is by sucking up his glyph.
Dracula's Soul Steal attack in Order of Ecclesia can count as well.
That's all I can think of.
Anyway, question.
Which card combination in Circle of the Moon can turn you into a Skeleton?
