Grave Keeper

Not to be confused with Grave Digger.

The Grave Keeper is an enemy in the Castlevania series. He is a master of unarmed combat.

Description

The Grave Keeper, as his name implies, can usually be found near graveyard areas. When approached, he will stand up and challenge the player. He generally attacks with long and fast side kicks, or by jumping and performing a downward kick.

Upon defeat, he will die in a shower of blood. Alucard can regain some health at this moment if Dark Metamorphosis (or any of its variants) is active.

Appearances

Castlevania: Rondo of Blood

First appearance of the Grave Keeper. He appears in the Caves (Stage 3') and, as his name implies, he can be found guarding the graveyard. Two are encountered near the room where Tera is held hostage (bridge with the dragon skeleton).

Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow

While the Grave Keeper does not appear in this game, his soul does. It can be obtained very early in the game, inside a soul-keeper located in the middle of the lower path of the Mermen room in the Castle Corridor. Acquiring this soul grants Soma the ability to perform back dashes.
