Roland de Ronceval

Roland de Ronceval was a Paladin of the Brotherhood of Light, and commander of the greatest army ever brought to destroy Dracula. He was in command of half a million men, and countless machines in an attempt to siege Dracula's castle. He commanded the troops from the Siege Titan.

He faced Gabriel at the balcony near the throne room, but backed off when Dracul proved to be too strong for him, instead ordering the titan to attack  the castle. Dracula escaped to the arm of the titan and worked his way up, Ronceval continutally tried to shoot exploding arrows to knock him off the titan. But was unsuccessful and the titan was finally destroyed by Dracula. The titan and everyone on board crashed through the outer wall leaving men dead or dying.

Roland made one final battle to destroy Dracula when the monster stepped out of the rubble. Gabriel still bested him in the fight. In last ditch attempt, Roland pulled out his battle cross, and began to chant in latin to call on the power of the seven archangels to destroy Dracula. But the cross had no effect on Dracula, he reminded Ronceval that he had once been much like him, and also began to chant the same prayer. The combined effort of both prayers unleashed a terrible explosion that destroyed Dracula's castle, and all nearby areas for miles around.

All that was left was Roland's golden helmet, nothing else was found of God's Paladin. There had been no witnesses to what happened, and in later times historians assumed that Roland had been victorious in destroying Dracula, however in reality Dracula had effectively wiped out the Brotherhood of Light.

Following that event, the Belmont clan became the new leaders of the Brotherhood of Light, up to the last belmont VIctor Belmont in present times.
