SIMON
During the life of Simon Belmont, the Belmont name was well known and quite famous, making Simon famous as well. When the Count Dracula once again awoke in 1691 and started terrorizing the people of Transylvania, they sought out Simon, who was promptly on the case.

He would fulfill the Belmont legacy once again, defeating Dracula. However, Dracula was not one to just up and admit defeat. Instead, this time he sacrificed an early resurrection and placed a curse on Simon. By having his minions take his body parts and hide them all over Transylvania, he believed and hoped that Simon could not find them all in time and the curse would over take him and the Belmont family lineage would succumb. However, that did not happen, as Simon would be successful in locating all the body parts to resurrect Dracula and promptly defeating him, thus lifting the curse.

Trevor C. Belmont (ラルフ・C・ベルモンド, Rarufu Shī Berumondo?, Ralph C. Belmondo) is the primary protagonist in Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse and a supporting character in Castlevania: Curse of Darkness.

He was the first "real" Belmont (given Sonia Belmont's lack of canonicity) to defeat Dracula. This was accomplished with the aid of Grant DaNasty, Sypha Belnades and Alucard. He would later marry Sypha Belnades and have children with her. This would add the prodigious magical powers of the Belnades line to the Belmont line, which would be most prominently seen in Juste Belmont.

He later plays a secondary role in Curse of Darkness, where he is investigating the rise of Dracula in the reason. He confronts the Devil Forgemaster Hector, and although initially treats him with contempt, he aids him in his quest after being injured by Issac, Hector's rival Devil Forgemaster.

He, along with Sypha Belnades and Grant DaNasty, later makes a cameo appearance in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night when zombies impersonate the trio to antagonize Alucard. Other such zombie impersonators also appear in Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin when Jonathan Morris and Charlotte Aulin trek the Nest of Evil.

Ricter Belmont

Hero of both Castlevania: Dracula X games and also a minor enemy in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Richter had to battle legions of Dracula's demons to save his love interest Annette. In Symphony of the Night, Richter mysteriously disappears. He was cursed and placed under the control of Shaft, a dark priest and servant of Dracula. This game had two different gameplays, players need to beat Richter (which was controlled by an orb) in order to free Richter after receiving holy goggles and Maria Renard comes in to rescue him, defeat him (without controlled by an orb), he will disappear aften beaten by Alucard, son of Dracula, after receiving a holy goggles.

In his first two appearances, as well as the prologue for the third, Richter wears a headband and a blue uniform. In Symphony of the Night, only in the Saturn version following the prologue, he wears his hair quite a bit longer and is dressed in much more regal attire. He also gains a few new abilities, notably a dash, a slide attack, and a super jump that doubles as an uppercut.

Contrary to popular belief, Richter is not the grandson of Soleiyu Belmont. They are nearly two centuries apart in terms of age and combat duty timeframe. He is, however, the son or grandson of Juste Belmont.

According to Alucard in Symphony of the Night, Richter powers were "Supreme among vampire hunters" and that "None other could defeat him," although his in-game appearance as a boss is rather weak. This is attributed to the fact that fighting Richter, instead of Shaft's orb, will lead to the Bad or Worst Ending, much like fighting Dario, instead of Aguni, in the second encounter in Dawn of Sorrow.

In Portrait of Ruin, Richter is used as an artificial enemy of Jonathan Morris in a test created by Stella and Loretta Lecarde. Richter, considered to be the last memory of the Vampire Killer, fights Jonathan to test his worthiness in wielding its full power. As such, Richter can be construed to the last Belmont to wield the Vampire Killer before Julius Belmont killed Dracula in 1999.

It is during this battle that Richter's power properly attests to Alucard's statement, as the mere memory of him can easily defeat Jonathan within only a few strikes of his whip.

Richter will once again star as the protagonist in the upcoming Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles for the PSP, which is essentially a remake of his first two games.

Note: In the North American version of Portrait of Ruin, his name is misspelled in cutscene dialogue boxes and the unlockable character selection menu as "Richiter". This may have stemmed from a translation error in the localization process.
