Soma Cruz

Intro Castlevania AU: Formidable Future ----- Soma is the successor to the powers of Count Dracula after the events of "Portrait of Ruin". The game takes place in the year 2035 A.D., after Soma is accidentally teleported to Dracula's Castle while visiting the Hakuba Shrine with Mina, his only friend. Soma is a master of the sword, and learns to control his vampiric abilities after becoming acquainted with the son of Dracula, Prince Alucard. Despite his cold, unapproachable, and intimidating personality to other people, Soma eventually learns the cause of his summoning is due to the efforts of Celia Forner, the leader of a shadowy cult with the goal of attempting to sacrific Soma and reawaken the Dark Lord using one of their own as a medium. Soma's Abilities: ★Soul Manipulation — Soma can inherit the souls of monsters on occasion and make use of their powers to obtain diverse abilities and techniques. ★Power of Dominance — Allows Soma to become (should he choose it) the next Dark Lord, Dracula. ★Transformation: Soma can naturally shapeshift, but is restricted to transforming into a bat only. ----- STORY: You are Soma's childhood friend and one of his only confidants in personal matters. Despite knowing of his vampiric heritage by way of a dream on which you were told the prophecy, he has yet to discover that you were given any insights. The two of you are visiting the Hakuba Shrine with his acquaintance Mina to watch a total eclipse when your trio is suddenly warped to Dracula's Castle in a distant place. Will you help him, or is he destined to fulfill the prophecy alone by himself?
