The Gurkha Master is an enemy in the Castlevania series. He is one of the Giant brothers; an armored warrior who wields a gurkha knife.

Origins[]

The Gurkhas are the soldiers of Nepali nationality, recruited by several countries and war zones around the world. The name may be traced to the medieval Hindu warrior-saint, Guru Gorakhnath, who has a historic shrine in Gorkha.

Ethnically, Gurung, Chhetri, Thakuri, and Magar mainly were the Gorkha tribes who united erstwhile Gorkha kingdom and fought against the British invasions. There is no ethnicity-based restriction to join.

Gurkhas are closely associated with the khukuri, a forward-curving Nepalese knife, and have a well known reputation for fearless military prowess.

Description[]

The Gurkha Master is one of the Giant brothers, a tall and thin armored knight who wields a gurkha knife. His armor is green with golden details, and he wears a samurai helmet. He either attacks by throwing the knife swirling forward, which then returns to him like a boomerang, or by lunging with the blade extended.
