Castlevania: Lords of Shadow is a 2010 action adventure reboot of the Castlevania franchise developed by MercurySteam with oversight by Hideo Kojima and published by Konami for PlayStation 3, Xbox360 and PC. Upon its release, the game was the first true 3D Castlevania title since Castlevania: Curse of Darkness for the PlayStation 2 in 2005.Taking place in an Alternate Continuity from the previous games, the story concerns Gabriel Belmont, an orphan raised by the Brotherhood of Light on a quest to defeat the eponymous Lords of Shadow. Earth has been cut off from the Heavens, leaving the souls of the dead forever trapped in the mortal realm and giving unholy abominations free reign to prey upon the human race. In these dark times, humanity's only hope lies in Gabriel fulfilling the prophecy of a pure-hearted warrior who will unite the powers of the Lords of Shadow and restore balance to the world. Gabriel himself also has a personal stake in the matter: his wife Marie was recently killed, and he hopes the power the Lords of Shadow guard, pieces of an ancient relic called the God Mask, will give him a way to bring his love back.Traveling through ancient groves, mausoleums, forgotten temples, swamps and castles, Gabriel must face all manner of characters both mortal and immortal,note Many of whom had appeared in previous Castlevania games, but who were originally public domain characters to begin with. and come to terms with his own terrible destiny.Lords of Shadow were followed by Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate released in 2013 for the Nintendo 3DS (later ported to PlayStation 3, Xbox360 and PC), and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 for PlayStation3, Xbox 360 and PC, released in February 2014. It also had an August 2013 Updated Re-release with the DLC Expansion Packs included, Castlevania Lords of Shadow: Ultimate Edition.In April 2017, Konami announced they were adapting the Lords of Shadow sub-series into a pachinko machine called Pachislot Akumajō Dracula: Lords of Shadow, featuring an original story and new characters to the Lords of Shadow universe.The games feature an extensive character sheet. |

Dying Race: Numerous in-game foes and allies belong to a species that are slowly dying out. Goblins and trolls are on the verge of extinction, the very last ogre had taken refuge in Malphas' stronghold, giant spiders are being poached for their precious silk, the Old Gods are being replaced by one God, and dragons died out long before the game's events. The sequel adds harpies, lycans, and vampires to this list, as well. |

Gone Horribly Wrong: The founding members' of the Brotherhood of Light plan to purify themselves and ascend to Heaven as powerful spiritual beings worked well enough, but the evil they left behind in their bodies grew into the Lords of Shadow. Gabriel fulfills the prophecy and defeats the Lords of Shadow just like the Brotherhood of Light and Pan wanted him to, but then goes on to become a more terrible monster than all the Lords of Shadow combined. |

comment |
End of an Age: The game opens with the Old Gods and lesser mythological creatures slowly dying out. The former is because of the increased spread of the One Faith, and the latter because of the ever-expanding human race. Death of the Old Gods: The story takes place in an era where Christianity is slowly displacing the Old Gods humanity once worshiped in bygone times. Gabriel eventually ends up killing Pan, one of the last surviving Old Gods. |

Adaptational Villainy: Sort of with Cornell, the hero of Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness, is the first of the three Lords of Shadow. it's revealed that the Lords of shadow are the soulless bodies of three of the Brotherhood's founders whose souls rose to heaven as beings only second to God. Meaning Cornell is a heroic person, but just not the part you fight. |

Prophetic Fallacy |

Prophetic Fallacy: When Zobek first unveils that Gabriel must fulfill the prophecy that would “deliver [them] from all evil,” he fails to mention the consequences. Justified, in that neither Zobek nor Satan, were aware of the “completed” version of the prophecy, and that Gabriel would have to trade in his humanity to achieve his goal. |

Mythology Gag |
| | Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Video Game) / int_26ac510e |
comment |
Mythology Gag: Gabriel's outfit is based on the crimson armor Simon Belmont wore in Castlevania II: Simon's Quest. The Lord of the Lycans is named Cornell, the werewolf protagonist of Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness and who is a playable character in Castlevania: Judgment. The Queen of the Vampires is named Carmilla, a vampire familiar of Dracula who featured heavily in Castlevania: Circle of the Moon and Castlevania: Judgment. One of Zobek's narrations also says that Carmilla will cry 'bloody tears', the name of a music track from several games and Carmilla's signature attack in the original continuity. The Crow Witch is named Malphas, a reoccurring crow demon enemy first appearing in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. The demon fought in the Resurrection DLC is named The Forgotten One, after the optional Bonus Boss of Castlevania: Lament of Innocence Gabriel's in-game profile suggests he may be an illegitimate son of the Cronqvist family. The castle the vampires reside is said to have belonged to the Bernhard family. The Combat Crosses, the Brotherhood's signature weapon, were created by an alchemist called Rinaldo Gandolfi. The small town in the land of the vampires is named Wygol Village, the main setting of Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. In the epilogue, a dead Slogra can be seen sticking out of the rubble in the church. It is mentioned villagers started calling the Combat Cross the "Vampire Killer". The song in the music box stage is an arranged version of the Vampire Killer theme from the first game. Waterfalls of Agharta and Belmont's Theme are rearranged versions of The Waterfall and Simon's Theme respectively from Super Castlevania IV. Gabriel's response to one of the Forgotten One's boasts is taken straight from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. |

Beauty Equals Goodness: Played with. Most of the monsters you fight look fairly nasty. However Carmilla, Zobek, and eventually Gabriel, continue to be good looking... at least in their human forms. |

Awesome, but Impractical |
| | Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae |
comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: The Exploding Quake skill, which requires a whole slew of button mashing to pull off. note Here's the in-game instruction for this move: “<...> Tap the [[X]] button, then press and hold the [[Y]] button until you smash the Combat Cross against the floor to start the combo. Each subsequent [[Y]] press will create an additional explosion, climaxing with a final press and hold of the [[Y]] button for the last devastating attack.” Scared yet? You will buy this skill just because it opens up the much better Ultimate Shadow. |

He Who Fights Monsters |
| | Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Video Game) / int_2c1f1138 |
comment |
He Who Fights Monsters: Fighting against hosts of monsters alone and without sleep or much food is not good for Gabriel's sanity, though as The Stoic he doesn't show it much. Two thirds of the way in, though, and Zobek begins to describe him as talking to Marie as though she were still there. To his credit, he's resolute enough to ask for forgiveness when made aware of his unwitting evil acts, yet he immediately reverts back when his long-awaited reward is yanked from under his nose. |

Even Evil Has Standards: Even after becoming the Queen of Vampires, Carmilla still despised Friedrich von Frankestein's heinous experiments on humans. She spends several centuries torturing him for his crimes. Laura also qualifies, sparing Gabriel when she sees him and Marie embrace, and later enlisting his help in dealing with The Forgotten One. |

Boring, but Practical |
| | Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 |
comment |
Boring, but Practical: The direct heavy combo might qualify as this. It's one of the very first upgraded moves you can acquire, and chances are, you will put it to good use. It's easily the most damaging non-magical skill, the combo can be built indefinitely, and it's one of the few moves which strike the ground before you, meaning it is critical when facing skeleton warriors and/or unique sludge-summoning enemies (the Black Knight and Laura's toys). This skill plus an enemy that is distracted/dazed by a fairy equals mincemeat, enjoy. Guillotine. The ease-of-use of this airborne finisher you obtain during the tutorial is not be undervalued, and with Shadow Magic active you can effortlessly bypass the hundred damage cap per hit. |

Not Even Bothering with the Accent: Averted. Unlike the original series, where everybody had an American accent, the Lord of Shadows series is pretty good about everyone having a European accent since the game takes place in Medieval Europe. Granted, it seems like they can't quite decide which specific part of Europe (you have characters with English, Scottish, and German accents in the same family), but it's something. |

Of course, that happens after the game is already hijacked once, by Satan. You expect to fight the Lord of the Dead in a climactic showdown that the entire game has been building up to. Zobek appears, reveals that he was Evil All Along and is the Necromancer himself, he gives Gabriel a big, winded speech, and even offs Gabriel... and then Satan appears, anticlimactically does away with Zobek, and takes over as the real final boss. |

| | Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Video Game) / int_588d766f |
comment |
Black and Grey Morality: Unlike the first series of games where one side was clearly good and evil, this series is a lot more ambiguous. Dracula has become the Prince of Darkness and terrorizes the world, but the Brotherhood of Light knew what he would become so they convinced his wife to keep his son's birth a secret so said child may one day destroy him. However, it is implied that Gabriel going down the path where he became Dracula was the only way to stop Satan. |

Evil Makes You Monstrous: The Lords of Shadow all went from normal humans to demons with decidedly monstrous true forms. Subverted with Gabriel, however; he's fairly humanlike even as a vampire, and this is in an universe, where to take on the visage of a human, a vampire must survive for a few centuries. |

Kleptomaniac Hero: Gabriel taking gems from his fallen brethren. Scrolls of the fallen also suggest nearly all Brotherhood of Light members loot the dead for such items, as they are too precious to leave behind. Most of the Brotherhood are suitably somber about it. Gabriel specifically kneels and crosses himself over dead knights before searching them. |

There Is No Kill Like Overkill |
| | Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Video Game) / int_8b606a51 |
comment |
There Is No Kill Like Overkill/Rasputinian Death: The climax of the Carmilla boss battle has Gabriel stabbing her multiple times with a stake, then impaling her on the steeple of one of her towers, then spiked through the heart with such force the ground behind her quakes. No wonder the Combat Cross' stake extension breaks off after that. |

Karmic Death: The abbot Vincent Dorin was indirectly responsible for an entire village being killed by vampires because he kept the only artifact capable of killing them to himself. Guess what becomes of him when he is left at the mercy of vampires when the artifact is taken from him by Gabriel Belmont and Zobek. |

You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: This is how Gabriel deals with every mount that isn't a shapeshifted Pan. The spiked chain Rinaldo Gandolfi created was for such a purpose. You can also do this to your own white pieces after winning the Vampire Wargame. Also done by the Big Bad, Satan, once Zobek is no longer necessary. |

Foreshadowing: The fact that Gabriel killed his wife is flat-out shown in a vision in Chapter 1. The increasingly ominous tone of Zobek's narration as the story continues. When Gabriel, after several instances of fighting alongside with Zobek, Zobek's narration says that the vampires' reckoning is coming in the form of a "Knight in Shining Armor with Death at his side." Baba Yaga saying that the "King of the Angels" told her Gabriel would arrive. The priest in Wygol Abbey jabbering on about how the Devil has been taunting the holy man in his dreams about the arrival of Gabriel and Zobek. Gabriel's profile mentioning he may be an illegitimate son of the Cronqvist family. Mathias Cronqvist was Dracula's original name in Castlevania: Lament of Innocence. |

Our Vampires Are Different: The vampires here are fairly standard, except they can't assume human forms unless they're at least several centuries old. They also have weird Crab-leg-claw-talon thingies protruding from their shoulders in addition to large bat wings. Olrox and Brauner aren't even human in origin; they're demons that Carmilla turned into vampires. |

comment |
Anti-Hero: Gabriel, who starts out as a Type I, but turns into a Type IV by the end of his journey. A double subversion in that approaching the conclusion of the main game he discards his doubt and becomes an Ideal Hero. That period of noble-minded valiance doesn't last long, though, as he falls from grace to become – astonishingly enough! – an Anti-Villain. note Granted, an Anti-Villain who's ready and waiting to commit homicides. Ultimately, however, it is played straight, as he returns to being unscrupulous by the time 2 rolls about. |

Shout-Out: "Search your soul, Gabriel. You know it to be true." "The Cake is not a lie!" Beating the game lets you equip Gabriel with a Bandanna and Solid Eye. The scroll of one deceased knight mentions a "Dekuh" tree. When you enter said tree, it is filled with spiders. From another scroll has a knight named Hoagy vowing revenge for his fallen companions Sister Laverne and Brother Bernard. During the Reverie DLC, you come across a scroll which mentions a time machine built by Emmett Marron. With additional Bilingual Bonus for Marron being the French and Spanish word for "brown". In the Resurrection DLC, there is a scroll that mentions the "Beast of Aaargh". It's pointed out that it's not clear if there is actually a Beast of Aaargh, or if the knight who wrote this line died while writing it. |

Adaptational Wimp |
| | Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Video Game) / int_d500b978 |
comment |
Adaptational Wimp: Subverted with Carmilla and Death. They've both lost their signature powers (a giant floating skull that weeps acid blood for Carmilla and millions of sickles for Death), but have new powers making them equal to their classic counterparts: lightning for Carmilla, and Death is a powerful necromancer who can control who lives and who dies across the world. Justified in the case of Dracula, since the story takes place before he becomes a vampire. By the end of the two DLC chapters he has gained power equal to what he's supposed to have if not more. Played straight with Brauner. In Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin he had the ability to create Portal Pictures and even bring his paintings to life, and he was so powerful than he almost managed to steal Dracula's Castle away from him. Like Carmilla and Death he loses his original powers, but unlike them his new powers are nowhere close to equal to what he had before. |

Hijacked by Ganon: You've been playing as Dracula's past self all along, and you just hijacked the Big Bad title from both the Lords of Shadow and Satan. Of course, that happens after the game is already hijacked once, by Satan. You expect to fight the Lord of the Dead in a climactic showdown that the entire game has been building up to. Zobek appears, reveals that he was Evil All Along and is the Necromancer himself, he gives Gabriel a big, winded speech, and even offs Gabriel... and then Satan appears, anticlimactically does away with Zobek, and takes over as the real final boss. |

Only a Flesh Wound: Possibly getting skewered by Carmilla and, much later, Satan, but this one's obligatory, doesn't seem to deter Gabriel in the slightest. |

Press X to Not Die |
| | Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Video Game) / int_e6661fc2 |
comment |
Press X to Not Die: Used for grabs, avoiding certain enemy attacks, platforming, and boss battles. They come in a few forms: mashing one of the four face buttons as fast as you can, hitting a shoulder button to avoid falling, twirling the left stick to catch and return things, and timed button presses based on two on-screen circles intersecting. |

Who Wants to Live Forever?: Gabriel, in the epilogue, lives to modern times as the immortal Dracula. Unfortunately, it seems all he really wants to do is die. Zobek tries to recruit him to prevent Satan's return, and promises to free Gabriel of his immortality if the fallen hero does. |

comment |
The demon fought in the Resurrection DLC is named The Forgotten One, after the optional Bonus Boss of Castlevania: Lament of Innocence Gabriel's in-game profile suggests he may be an illegitimate son of the Cronqvist family. The castle the vampires reside is said to have belonged to the Bernhard family. The Combat Crosses, the Brotherhood's signature weapon, were created by an alchemist called Rinaldo Gandolfi. |

Evil Plan |
| | Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Video Game) / int_f2d8e3c2 |
comment |
Evil Plan: The entire plot was orchestrated by Satan to obtain the God Mask in order to ascend into Heaven and usurp God. He was the one who manipulated Lord of the Dead, Zobek, into casting the spell that separated Earth from the Heavens and then manipulated Gabriel into killing his own wife. This leads to Gabriel's quest to vanquish the Lords of Shadow and reunite the three separate pieces of the God Mask, after which Lucifer promptly eliminates them both. Unfortunately for him, Gabriel won't stay dead. |
