Castlevania: Lords of Shadow: Difference between revisions

The story is an [[Alternate Continuity]] from the previous titles and concerns Gabriel Belmont, an orphan raised by the Brotherhood of Light and currently tasked to speak with the Old Gods in order to determine the nature of a darkness afflicting the world. Perhaps humanity has been abandoned by God. Perhaps someone -- or something -- has cast a spell powerful enough to separate Earth from the heavens, preventing the dead from moving on. Either way, Gabriel has a personal [[Just for Pun|stake]] in the matter: his wife Marie was recently killed, and he hopes to (at the very least) speak with her again and, if possible, discover a way to bring her back to life.

Traveling through ancient groves, mausoleums, forgotten temples, castles and swamps on his quest for an artifact that may bring Marie back from the dead, Gabriel encounters all manner of characters both mortal and immortal.

 

 

* [[A Boy and His X|A Girl and Her Magical Golem]]: Claudia and the Black Titan. She's a [[Cute Mute]] girl, the last of her kind, he's a magitek animated suit of armor feeding off the souls of the baddies trying to do her harm. Daddy knows best, indeed.

* [[Absolute Cleavage]]: Carmilla.

* [[Badass]]: Gabriel Belmont, so very much.

* [[Badass Grandpa]]: Zobek.

* [[Best Boss Ever]]: There's a [[Magitek]] [[Golem]] who you fight, that constantly rains down meteors made of the lost relics of an ancient civilization upon you. ''It's the second boss, and it isn't even the [[Climax Boss]]''. [[Serial Escalation|And they just get better from there]].

** A perfect example of it just getting better is {{spoiler|Pan, your [[Stealth Mentor]] and [[Mysterious Protector]]}}, as the Silver Warrior. Where to start? Well, he looks like [http://images.wikia.com/castlevania/images/9/9a/SilverWarrior.jpg this]. He uses a BFS with a chain-whip tip for his weapon, has magic just like you, pulls off some [[Crazy Awesome|utterly stunning]] moves with said BFS and will summon spirit animals to attack you. He insists you bring it on throughout the battle (but not so frequently as to become annoying). The best parts, however, are under the spoiler tags (consider yourself warned, as they are serious plot twists). {{spoiler|You just killed a god, and it was a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] on the god's part.}}

** {{spoiler|Satan as well, and most of the villains in the game, so it's [[Evil Is Hammy]] in full force.}}

* [[Last of His Kind]]: {{spoiler|Claudia.}}

** The giant spiders also count.

** Not to mention Brauner, who can be miles away one moment and right in your face the next. And he doesn't have speed boots like Cornell.
