Count Dracula (Castlevania)

How Count Dracula joined the Tourney
Originally a human called Mathias Cronqvist, Dracula fell into madness after the death of his first wife, and became an immortal vampire thanks to the powers of the Crimson Stone. With his dark powers, he built his 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.

However, a member of the Black Black Club angry with Sakyo returned Dracula to full life. This member of the club was Butajiri, who resorted to using any means to get what he wants. Dracula's orders were to kill Sakyo and the Toguro Brothers at the Tourney, including the Elder Toguro. Dracula still retains his own ambitions sectretly.

Dark Metamorphosis (Hyper Smash)
Dracula warps and reappears in front of his opponent and tries to bite him/her. If he does, he drains every drop of blood from the body, taking a life from the stock and healing him fully.

Demonic Megiddo (Final Smash)
Dracula sends a swarm of bats forward saying "Night falls..." If they hit, he teleports to the sky behind the enemy with demonic wings, eager for the finale with "And now, the finale." With a desire to burn all who oppose him, he charges a magic rune that burns with demonic fire, then slams it on his victim like a meteor with "Everything must burn!" The demonic rune then triggers and explodes with a power that matches a nuclear explosion. He then taunts his victim "Thats the power of Darkness."
