Topic: CV is running out of timeline...

That being said, we still have quite a few Belmonts IGA could tell his story with. I would like another game were you play as Trevor, exept I hope he'd be dressed like in CoD.

[Thomas Belmont]

No. The Belmont line is a direct line, father to son sort of thing.

This is what I always believed too, but was it actually ever confirmed? Maybe in Castlevania's Adventure or Belmont's Revenge?

Agreed. That (His relative(s) could have passed down the blood line) would've made them like the whole morris/shneider/etc stuff, unable to use the whip without some special spells and die while using it.

Eh, I'd assume that would only happen if the bloodline continued through a female Belmont. Say, just for example, Trevor didn't have any children, although I believe he did, the Vampire Killer and his blood could have been passed down through his brother or cousin. I don't think that would weaken the lineage.

Oh, just let it end already! There's no further hope for the series....!!

There's still enough space on the timeline to last Castlevania a good while, so long as creativity and ingenuity is applied. I also wouldn't worry much about Castlevania not surviving. It's gone on for longer than 20 years, I think it'll be fine.

It's never been confirmed that the Belmont line is totally direct as far as I know. 

[Genya Arikado]

Christopher Belmont rescued his son, Soleiyu Belmont, so I think it would be correct to assume the father son line. Also, Juste Belmont was the grandson of Simon (hair change from red to white?) The only problem with this theory is that Richter was the last Belmont to use the Vampire Killer, until Julius, such a long gap would make one think that Julius is not a direct descendent of the Belmont line. So I would like to see a Belmont PC in the next Castlevania game, the one after Richter, thus making it take place after PoR.

It's possible the belmonts were somehow tainted in the generation after richter, and it took them over 100 years to cleanse that. Obviously Richter wasn't the one, otherwise the whole whips memory would be his father.

I really doubt the whip, and the soul of Sara would pick a traitor/black sheep as its representation.

That sounds kinda cool. But I doubt it will happen. Belmonts have a strong will against evil, Richter obly helped Shaft because he was under a spell.

I would like to see a game were Dracula is Chalenged for the Lord of Darkness title. Yopu would play as a Belmont, then you would have to kill Daracula, and his challenger.

Your main argument about the whip being passed down from father to son is because Christopher rescued his son? And besides Julius, it's unlikely that there was a Belmont who used the whip after Richter.

Yes that's my theroy. And yes again, It would be unlikely.

[DragonSlayr81]

It's unlikely, hell, no Belmonts used the VK after Richter, but the Belmont line still thrived. Richter most likely had kids with Annette, and their children had children, and so on. Julius is a descendant from THIS. But, by his time, the "taint" was gone. He was the "prophecized" hero that would put Dracula down.

There is no prof. Up untill 1944, no Belmonts used the VK, but what about Julius' father?

[Long John Silver]

Cod and Pork say that belmonts couldn't touch the whip until the demon castle war times, so nope. Doubt it.

Your Cod sorce is wrong. And in PoR it only said Richter was the last one to use it.
