The man who defeated Dracula three years ago and is now seeking a way to remove the curse. Hearing stories that a Devil Forgemaster has returned, he goes to Dracula's old lair to investigate. He finds Hector in the Garibaldi Temple, but quickly realizes that he is to weak (having not yet recovered his full powers) to be the Forgemaster his is looking for.

Zead[edit]
A strange man Hector meets in the Abandoned Castle. He claims to be looking for a way to remove the curse and knows a lot about Devil Forging, though he will not tell Hector who he is exactly. He will often be found wandering around the area, and always willing to point Hector in the right direction. After Hector eavesdrops on a conversation between him and Saint Germain, it becomes clear that the two are bitter enemies, and that Zead has magical powers of his own, a fact that he had not revealed to Hector. Despite the fact that he is fighting Germain to allow Hector to complete his quest for vengeance, he becomes concerned after Hector tells him that Germain promised to stop interfering, and once again rus off in a hurry. Following Issac's death, he attempts to use Hector as a host for Dracula's soul. It turns out that Zead is Death, who had been leading Hector to Isaac for the sole purpose of transferring the curse.

During his fight with Isaac in Cordova Town it is revealed that she is, in fact, Isaac's sister. Despite this, she still wants Hector to kill Isaac, since he is now little more than a host for Dracula's curse. She takes care of Trevor Belmont after he is injured and goes to Dracula's Castle to watch over Hector, knowing that the curse could consume him if he didn't fight it. In the end she offers to help Hector protect his demon friends from humans who would attack them, mostly to get him to stay with her.
Saint Germain[edit]
The other strange man that Hector encounters during his quest. He appears in front of Hector outside of the Garibaldi Temple, and asked Hector to give up his quest for revenge against Isaac. He refuses to tell Hector who he is, only that he is trying to "maintain the flow of a greater will". He teleports out (for the time being) in a flash of light before Hector can inquire further. In the Forest of Jigramunt it quickly becomes apparent that he and Zead are enemies, though the exact cause of their hatred (besides the conflicting interest over Hector's quest) remains a mystery for much longer. After challenging Hector to a fight, Germain claims that he is merely a traveler, prohibited from acting or telling Hector the complete truth. In the end it is revealed that Germain is a time traveler from an unknown time (far into Hector's future, but before Dracula's final defeat in 1999) who came back because he was worried about the stability of time. He is based on a real person.
