Glide

Gliding (or Levitation) is the ability to fall slowly. This is usually accomplished with the help of a being who can fly and is often used to reach the tops of distant high up ledges that are lower than the height you can jump from. Soma Cruz was the first character to have this ability, which he gained from a Flying Armor in both Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow and Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow. Hector is able to use this ability with a Crow Innocent Devils or any of the other Bird Type innocent devil in Castlevania: Curse of Darkness. He is also able to gain a Long Glide ability, enabling him to reach extremely distant places. Maria is able to perform this move with help of her Owl in the Dracula X Chronicles version of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night following a High Jump.
