  • Reinhardt's whole story with Rosa. As a Belmont, he has been raised to be a relentless monster hunter and Vampire Killer from birth by his father Michael and the Church. But upon meeting Rosa, a kind, meek, non-violent Vampire who offers him her help and who loathes her cursed fate, Reinhardt can't help but to stop, whereas he has no problem exterminating other Vampires, even the female servants. Later, Reinhardt stops her from committing suicide as it would damn her soul regardless, yet when asked to kill her, he can't bring himself to do it. After having to fight a mind-controlled Rosa, he refrains from killing her yet again, only disarming her. Rosa asks Reinhardt to find her family and tell them she never gave in to her curse for her. Finally, breaking through Death's control of her, Rosa sacrifices her life by shielding Reinhardt with her body from Death's attack. Reinhardt embraces her and assures her God would welcome her and forgive all her sins, praying for her soul and giving her a cross to hold as she dies. Enraged, Reinhardt makes short work of Death, the Demon Renon, Fake Dracula, Dracula and Dracula's Real form in rapid succession, after which he is in the verge of despairing over Rosa's fate. He is rewarded though, as Rosa is revived and appears in front of him, her curse lifted. The couple embraces and watches the purified Wallachian landscape under the sunrise before leaving to start their life together.
  • Carrie's stated motive for her adventure. A 12 year old girl who had her loving stepmother taken from her by an angry mob who feared Carrie's power. She states that she wants to exterminate Dracula so children can live a life without fear, and is abhorred when she hears Actrise (an enemy exclusive to her in the game) tell her she gained her power by sacrificing her own child, and countless others, to Dracula. In the end, her goal accomplished, she visits her Stepmother's grave and lays a bouquet of flowers on it.
