It was only in his final moments that Walter realized what was happening and what Mathiass true intentions were.He is loosely based on the eponymous character from Bram Stoker s 1897 novel, Dracula, as well as the historical figure, Vlad Drculea.With his dark powers, he built an army of creatures and his fortress, Castlevania.Since the 11th Century, the Belmont Clan stood in opposition to Dracula and legendary warriors confronted him each time he came back from the dead.
He was eventually definitively destroyed in 1999 by the last descendant of the Belmonts. Sometime during the mid to late 11th century, he served in a company of knights alongside then Baron Leon Belmont. With Mathiass brilliant military strategies and Leons skill with a sword, their company was unstoppable. Little is known of Mathiass early life or his family, save that they seem to have been longtime practitioners of Alchemy and had advanced further into the study than most alchemists could have ever dreamed. Mathias was very well educated and quite skilled in the art, though he never told Leon or any of his other compatriots of his knowledge, with the notable exception of Rinaldo Gandolfi, whom he had met at an unspecified time. Mathias married a woman named Elisabetha who he was deeply in love with. While away on a campaign against heathens in the east, Elisabetha died due to illness. ![]() Mathias began searching for ways to become immortal and show God that he didnt have a final say in everything and that he could defy Gods decrees by existing outside them and scorning God in his eternal life. He learned about the Crimson Stone, considered to be a treasure among vampires. Through some means, the stone came into Mathiass possession and he planned to use it to ascend to immortality. With the stone, Mathias could not only control the powerful spirit creature, but also absorb the souls of slain vampires and add their powers to his own. As an effect of this, humanity would be lost and he would become a vampire himself. The young knight then had all the resources he needed to plan his scheme to become an immortal. Mathias eventually came in contact with a powerful Vampire Lord named Walter Bernhard, who had somehow obtained the Ebony Stone, another vampiric treasure that locked his forested realm and castle in eternal night, thereby making him the most powerful vampire. The only thing of value that Walter desired was the Crimson Stone, which was believed to be lost for ages, but was secretly held by Mathias. To raise the stakes of the game - to make the human more interested - he would steal that which is most precious from his target. Mathias suggested targeting Sara Trantoul to Walter, the fiance of Leon Belmont. The knight would make an interesting player in Walters game, because according to Mathiass stories, his combat prowess was second to none. Walter, who didnt realize he was being tricked, ordered his forces to invade Leons domain in order to capture Sara. When Walter was dying, Death appeared and took his soul and granted the vampires power to Mathias, who had materialized in the castle.
