===================
(1) Introduction
===================

 First off I would like to thank anyone who reads this walkthru and uses 
it to the fullest. Second, this walkthru is NOT 100% complete, nor will 
it EVER be. However, it does cover almost everything that is in the 
game.

 Second, let me make this very clear from the start. This is a 
FAQ/Walkthru for the NEW Castlevania game for the Nintendo 64, not the 
classic NES version. Konami has simply named it Castlevania instead of 
Castlevania 64 or 3D just to confuse people and plus the 64 and 3D 
endings just plain sound bad.

 After writing my first walkthru for MegaMan Legends I discovered two 
things about writing a FAQ.
1) If you devote enough time to it, it can be a breeze.
2) You become the center of attention on that one game. Any and Every 
question goes to you.

 After getting well over 300 e-mails and having a 90 plus contact list 
for ICQ, I decided it was time to move on. I checked some games out, but 
they just went bad. Tenchu: Stealth Assassins didn't had too little to 
write about and Zelda: Orcarnia of Time had too much to write about, not 
to mention it was done by around thirty other people.

 Castlevania is another matter. It involves everything I like. Death, 
Role Playing, More Death and Big Bosses. Being the 17th in it's series, 
Castlevania has plenty to live up to, especially Castlevania Symphony of 
the Night, one of the PSX's best games. Well on with the guide!

| It is a collection of Konami | Konami game trying to set   |

===================
(4) Vampire Hunters
===================

                       {Reinhardt Schneider}

 Say this one seven times fast. The male role of the game goes to 
Schneider, a fur wearing, whip welding, knife slashing all around 
vampire hunter. Schneider is actual related to the Belmont dynasty (4th 
cousin twice removed?) so this whole vampire hunting/killing/slaying 
all comes natural to him.

                        {Carrie Fernandez}

 Yes, she is small. Yes, she is young. Yes, she knows martial arts and 
has vampire slaying magical attacks, what girl her age doesn't? Carrie 
of course is weaker than Schneider, but her shots go farhter than his 
whip, allowing her to avoid more danger.

===================
(5) Full WalkThru
===================

C O M I N G  S O O N  (and I mean that!)

===================
(6) Normal Items
===================

Sun and Moon Cards

Much like the Sun song for Zelda, the Moon and Sun cards can change the 
game from dusk to dawn at your own will.

Roast Chicken

It's rotten, it's dieeased, it's your dinner. The Roast Chicken 
replinishes over 50% of your health. Hey, it's better than KFC!

Roast Beef

Where this came from, I just don't want to know. Roast Beef replinishes 
over 80% of your health. Hey, it's better than Arby's!

Med Kit

Good luck finding one of these. If do stumble upon one, however, expect 
your health to be fully recovered.

Cure Ampules

These cure any poison effects that your character runs into. Expect 
yourself to be poisoned often.

Purify Crystal

Say a vampire BITES you. Your doomed to wonder the earth, roaming around 
looking for blood, right? Not with these. After being bit, and then 
using one of these, the curse is lifted!

Red Jewels

Unless your working on easy mode, red jewels are used for the use of 
Special weapons. Make sure to always have a good supply handy.

White Jewels

While you would think it is just a bigger version of the red jewel, the 
white jewel actually lets you save your game on the controller pak.


===================
(7) Special Weapons
===================

Special Weapons work in the way of Red Jewels. The number of jewels you 
have, the more you can use the special weapons. Simple, ne?

=================  Knife  ====================
========== Cost 1 Red Jewel Per Use ==========

The Knife can actually be thrown farther than the whip can reach, but of 
course is not as powerful. 


=================   Axe   ====================
========== Cost 2 Red Jewel Per Use ==========

Also a good projectile weapon, it can be more well controlled than the 
knife, being able to be thrown far and short.


================ Holy Water ==================
========== Cost 3 Red Jewel Per Use ==========

Back evil spawn of SATAN!!! er.. Anyways, the holy water is more of a 
close range attack, where is a super soaker when ya need it?


================   Cross   ===================
========== Cost 5 Red Jewel Per Use ==========

While it is a VERY powerful weapon, the cross sucks up a good 5 Jewels 
every time per use. Ouch. It mostly functions as a boomerang type 
projectile.
