It causes strong damage to enemies and reaches over most of the screen. But he makes up for it with his immensely powerful Item Crushes! Like the opening anime shows, he can destroy a whole group of Skeletons in one go ) SPECIAL MOVES -=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Fire Whip - If you perform an Item Crush without a Sub-Weapon, Richter will use a giant fire whip at a cost of 15 Hearts.

Most veteran Castlevania players will find themselves more comfortable playing as a Belmont, rather than a 12 year old girl that kills demons with fluffy animals. Richter is drawn to Castlevania via two forces his own cursed bloodline which beckons him to destroy Count Dracula, and his love for a girl called Annette Renard, who was taken from her village to Castlevania by evil forces.

Anyway, after roughly 5 years I ending up getting it and ended up writing this FAQ/Walkthrough for it. Thankfully, I found this out during the build up for the release of Symphony of the Night in late '97, so it was pushed into the deep recesses of my brain by the anticipation of Symphony of the Night.
