About Devil Forgemasters
While not much is said about them within the series, Devil Forgemasters are not mere sorcerers; not just trained in black magic, but also in the arts of alchemy and spiritual metaphysics, being able to craft massive weapons and arsenals, to even forming living, magical beings, from mere prime and raw material of nearly any sort with the forbidden knowledge they possess.

Their creations bear the namesake of Innocent Devils, creatures summoned and born of darkness, ranging from original and self made, to even the formerly deceased and revived. All created hold strict and utter loyalty to their respective Forgemaster, and grow in power through battle and destruction.

Their ranks having been in the employ of Dracula himself, it is highly possible that they are also responsible for the mass creation of many of the series' enemies and fiends alongside Dracula's and Castlevania's own influence and summoning of evil creatures.

It is also said the strength of Devil Forgemaster's rivals that of Death. Because of this, only few humans are known to be able to use Devil Forgery.
