Carnivores

Castlevania features a variety of demonic carnivorous beasts such as predatory cats, dogs, or wolves. Many of them can run fast, possibly switching direction, and use charging, biting, or clawing as their main method of attack. Some possess mystical powers, such as the ability to breath fire, turn you into stone, return from the dead, dissolve into indistructible liquid, or charge through the air. Some are mythical beasts (such as the three headed Cerberus, the giant wolf Warg), while others are just fantastical or undead or anthropomorphic versions of real animals.
