Day 5 of 2020 Inktoberfest.
Today's words from both lists are 'Feather' and 'Blade.'
I remember thinking back where I heard the two words before. Then it hit me. The game Castlevania: Curse of Darkness and the weapon the Feather Sword. A sword is a type of blade so it counts.; D
The main protagonist of the game is Hector. For those who know the Netflix series more; Hector is the closest in appearance to his gaming counterpart. Far more so than his rival Isaac.
The series also explored how a Devil Forgemaster is of valuable service to Dracula's army: primarily in raising the dead.
Yet this is where the series and game greatly differ. Hector in Curse of Darkness demonstrates two abilities the series did not show: the ability to hatch and raise Familiars (almost like Pokemon.) And the other is gathering materials to create weapons, armor and other interesting objects.
Of particular note is unique weapons Hector can create. Even things so unearthly and bizarre as a laser sword, Death's scythe and even an electric guitar. (Keep in mind this takes place during the late 1400's.)
For this Inktober I present Hector wielding one of the weapons of his forging: The Feather Sword. It is a weapon apparently so light it is light as feather.....but it is no less deadly.
And Hector is a very accomplished swordsman and a master in other fighting arts such as the polearm and even the fist.
Something the series DEFINITELY didn't follow up on. What have they done to my boy being whipped about and seduced by some bitchy vampires? ![:P]( ":P (Lick)")
This must be setting the stage for his future revenge; as Curse of Darkness was the sequel to Dracula's Curse which the series is based on.
Although I don't wholly trust Netflix these days. They cancelled Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. Not even Castlevania can have me forgive them for this offense.
Hector and Castlevania are properties of Konami
