Revision as of 22:13, 23 September 2018
- For the Dracula's Curse and Portrait of Ruin theme, see Overture.
"Divine Bloodline"[1] (乾坤の血族 Kenkon no Ketsuzoku?, lit. "Blood Relations of Heaven and Earth") is a song introduced in the 1993 NEC PC Engine game Castlevania: Rondo of Blood as the music for Stage 1, as well as the Stage 1 from the 1995 Super NES game Castlevania: Dracula X. The song is composed by Akiropito.
There are five major variations:
- Overture, which comes with a faster tempo, is the music for the intro animation before Stage 0 in the game. It is marked as Richter Belmont's theme in the soundtrack.
- Ending theme of Castlevania: Dracula X.
- "The Outcasts"[2] (異形の血族 Igyō no Ketsuzoku?, lit. "Monstrous Blood Relations"), which was introduced in the 1997 Sony PlayStation game Castlevania: Symphony of the Night as the music for the battle against Richter Belmont. In The Dracula X Chronicles version, the song also plays during the battle against Maria Renard. This version is arranged by Michiru Yamane and is also known as "Strange Bloodlines" or "Blood Relations".
- "Sign of Blood Relationship" (血脈の印 Ketsumyaku no Shirushi?), which was introduced in the 1999 Nintendo 64 game Castlevania as the intro music of the game.
- "Bloodlines Bequeathed"[3] (-継承- 乾坤の血族 Keisyō Kenkon no Ketsuzoku?, lit. "The Succession: Blood Relations of Heaven and Earth"), which was introduced in the 2006 Nintendo DS game Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin as the music for the battle against Richter Belmont.
