Whip

A Whip is a damage type in Castlevania series.

As the name implies, Whip is a damage type inflicted on enemies by using the Castlevania weapon of choice: The Whip.

This special lashing effect is akin to a flail or a single-headed version Metoer Hammer, but is special since it includes some of the most notable and infamous weapons found in any, if not all, Castlevania games.

Vampire Killer
The legendary whip wielded by the Belmont clan. The whip is possessed by magical properties which allow it to destroy evil. Special rituals are needed for those who are not of Belmont blood to use it.

Alchemy Whip
The Alchemy Whip was used to be an ordinary whip before Rinaldo Gandolfi used the mystic, and at the time forbidden, arts of Alchemy to give it extra power. Wielded by Leon Belmont, this gave him the advantage at getting through Walter Bernhard's castle, but wasn't strong enough to do any damage to the powerful vampire. It was later, through a sacrificial ritual, that the Alchemy Whip was transformed into the now famous whip: Vampire Killer.

Hunter Whip
The Hunter Whip is passed down through the Baldwin clan. It was used by Nathan Graves in Castlevania: Circle of the Moon. The weapon seems able to be used by anyone with a pure spirit, untainted by evil.
