Favorite Dracula...?

We all know that Dracula gets a new form in each game, both in his human-ish form and his Dracula Ultimate (True Dracula) form. So, I was wondering, what's your favorite form of Dracula?

Mine is from Castlevania 64, Malus, the evil little prince of darkness. At first, Malus is just a scared little kid you find in the Villa's garden maze, or so he seems. You help him escape from the Frankenstein Monster and his two evil stone dogs. After Malus escapes through the forest gate, you would think he was gone, that he went home and is safe. Well, you were wrong because you actually see him again in the castle center about half way through the game. He says some very strange things to you, asking if you were going to fight Dracula and avenge his parents. You say yes, and his eyes turn pinkish and he goes all evil saying how you cannot kill Dracula and how you will "Die like Wretches". You actually don't see him again until the very last level. After you kill what you think to be Dracula, the castle begins to crumble, and as you escape, you meet up with Malus one last time while he's riding on his creepy looking purple flying unicorn, which I assume is a nightmare. You climb onto the roof of one of the buildings in the Master's Keep, and he reveals to you that he is Dracula. He then transforms into an adult form more suitable for the Lord of Darkness, and also very cool looking. Then, after defeating him, he transforms into his child form again, and your idiot character thinks he's back to normal, and reaches to help him. Then, Charlie Vincent pops up out of nowhere and douses Malus with holy water. It is then where he transforms into True Dracula, which looks like a giant mixture of a dragon and a centipede. It's actually pretty cool looking and extremely powerful, with it's ability to make giant explosions and summon flaming serpents. Then, you defeat him, sealing him away in a big shiny portal. Also, if you get the bad ending, Malus marries Carrie, knowing her power could be useful to him. Yes, he's still evil.

From the ones I've played (very few) I'd still say Symphony of the Night. He has a heart (I don't mean literally :P ) there. XD I love that final conversation with Alucard..

Oh, and the big monster variety thing was cool too.

I still think Malus and his creepy purple unicorn pwn the world. Have you seen that thing?! It's awesome!

I would agree. Also, I like you're "Jesus Dracula" name for him. I think you mentioned on the Chapel that you call him that because he seems kinda like a sort of messiah? Like when he looks like a cross in his transformation to true form? I would also agree with these.

My favorite is SoTN Dracula.  The interaction with his son is great.

I like the Super Castlevania IV, because i believe he's the most original, since he has only one form that is getting harder instead having a second form.

his msx beginning version with just the skeleton in the robe, that was tight and I also love his Cod second form that one was awesome he looked like some kind of demented evil angel. (killed satan and stole his soul maybe? that would be a kickass plot twist).

Agree with most of you that Dracula was best in SotN, however I'd say only character-wize, the first fight ofcourse is the DCX clone and the last, for some reason I don't really like. For the fight though, I'd have to go with PoR (on a harder setting). Also I really like the Bloodlines fight, especially the trippy last part.

yeah his second form in por was awesome too, but it appears to be the CoD form again with a darker hue due to death's assistance.

yeah that was cool and showed genesis' power, the supernes couldn't do that under those parameters.

PoR and CoD shared a lot of enemies and such. Those two Dracula's are two of the most similar final forms.
