My Idea for a Castlevaina Tv Series
For this Halloween, I'm going to bring my idea for a Castlevania TV series to life, because let's face it, the first series is fantastic, while Nocturne... well, it's not. Here is my idea for a Castlevania show.
Now the show is set after the first series, but it takes place 25 years after the events of the first series.
It would be 10 episodes per season, each an hour long.
This series would be inspired by Simon's Quest and Lords of the Shadow.
Trevor and Sypha would be in the show making a return to the series along with Alucard. As well, Issac and Hector would appear in the show, too, Greta would be in the show, and Carmilla's vampire sisters would come back, too.
Simon Belemont would be the protagonist of the show, and he is the son of Trevor and Sypha.
Simon hunted vampires and other night creatures with his father, Trevor, and learned magic from his mother, Sypha. However, Simon is a mix of his parents; he has his father's toughness, loves drinking, but he is as smart as his mom and has learned magic from her, which he uses to turn two axs into flames. He also has a fiancée named Selena.
Selena is in the game, but this version is not like Annette; instead, she's a healer who has known Simon since childhood and possesses magic that Sypha taught her. She is also Alucard an Greta's daughter.
She is kidnapped by the Lords of Shadows, and the reason for her kidnapping is to provide Carmilla's evil spirit with a new body to be reborn. As she is a quarter vampire thus a reborn Carmilla can walk in the day light.
New characters include Hector's daughter, Lenora, who is a forge master, and Issac has a son named Vlad, who is the prince of the kingdom of Sytria. They would join Simon on his quest to kill the Lords of Shadows and both seek to stop Carmilla from returning.
Dracula would appear in the show along with his wife, but he is more of a supporting character and not a villain. He would even help Simon and Alucard defeat the Lords of Darkness along with his wife.
The villains of the show are the Lords of Shadow, led by The Forgotten One, the rest of the group are Zobek, Cornell, and a reborn Carmilla who steals Selena's body. The Forgotten One, who is actually Gabriel Belemont, a vampire turned by Dracula. That's right, the main villain would be a Belemont.
The storyline would be that Simon is getting married to Selena, but it all goes to hell when The Lords of Shadow come, and during the attack, Trevor and Sypha die, but they die saving their son. Simon is full of rage over the deaths. So Simon goes on a quest to avenge his parents and save Selena. However, he won't be doing it alone with the help of Alucard who wants to save his daughter from the Lords of Shadow.
Unlike Nocturne, I won't have the vampires be too sympathetic. I'm not going to have Selena be a unlikeable character like Annitte. I won't have any forced characters that are there for the sake of pandering. And Simon, unlike Ritcher, isn't a crybaby and didn't even avenge his mom, like he spares Orlok's life, and I'm like, really, he killed your mom, but no, he's actually a victim, and he has a love story. Ugh, bad writing and a sympathetic villain trope are a failure again. Simon would be the opposite; he wouldn't be a pushover, downgraded for a co-lead, and he would be the primary focus, a hero that we look up to, like Trevor and Sypha were.
The villain of the show is interesting because he's a Belmont who was turned into a vampire, and he seeks to destroy his own bloodline, feeling abandoned by them after he became a vampire. As he was the found of House Belmonts, and after he became one he fled into exile and now he wants to create a world in darkness and kill his bloodline.
So that's my idea of for a Castlevaina Series.
Let me know what you think?
