User:KristenDArgyle/Sonia Belmont Draft
Don't Look At Me! I am Crappy and soooo not done! I probably even copied some random info from the List of Castlevania characters page and am awaiting citations and research and pictures and every thing else a page needs! Also, I'm not sure if I'm going to be my own page or part of the Castlevania characters page. I am just a sandbox.
Draftity Draft Draft[edit]
Sonia Belmont (ソニア･ベルモンド, Sonia Berumondo, Sonia Belmondo) is the seventeen year old female protagonist of Castlevania Legends and lived during the Late Middle Ages, before Trevor Belmont, in a remote part of Transylvania.[1] She was born with special abilities beyond that of ordinary humans and was taught how to use a whip by her grandfather.[2] It is not explicitly stated whether the whip she uses is Vampire Killer or not. Like all other Belmonts, she ventures into Dracula's castle with the intention of ending his evil. Within the castle, she encounters Alucard, the half-vampire son of Dracula.[3] She had met him some time before and it can be inferred from their dialog that the two had formed a romantic relationship.[4][5] Alucard was intent on dissuading Sonia from her goal, planning to stop his father alone.[6] When Sonia would not yield, he challenged her to a battle to test her abilities.[7] After she defeated him, Alucard was confident that Sonia could overcome Dracula and he went into a self-imposed sleep.[8] Sonia went on to become the first Belmont to defeat Dracula, and spared Europe from his evil influence for a time. Sometime after Dracula's defeat, Sonia bore a child who "would carry on the fate and tragedy of the Belmont family, and the bloodline of dark ways." [9] It is never explicitly stated, but it is suspected this child is Trevor Belmont, since it would match up chronologically and the epilogue states the child will rise against the Prince of Darkness and one day be praised as a hero. [10] It is also suspected that Alucard is the father, due to the implications of a romantic relationship between he and Sonia as well as the hint that the child has the "blood of dark ways."
This character and her game have been retroactively removed from official continuity.[11] Furthermore, Sonia was also one of the confirmed leads in the Dreamcast game Castlevania: Resurrection, up until that game's cancellation. [12] To date, she is the only female Belmont in the Castlevania series.
