Cannot take Mizrak seriously, he'll be out here like "Only God can judge my true soul and when the time comes I hope I am found worthy of the Kingdom of heaven, as everything I have done is in service to Him" and he'll be saying this with complete seriousness to the serial killer vampire he just had gay sex with

I have to give Castlevania Nocturne a lot of credit for how they treat Olrox.

Castlevania Nocturne takes place during the French Revolution, and Olrox is unapologetically Aztec. His entire character is shaped by the fact he is Aztec and the genocide he personally witnessed. Him being Aztec is a fundamental part of his character.

But there is no reason given in the narrative why he needs to be.

I can’t explain to you just how rare it is that indigenous people are able to be a part of a narrative without they’re needing to be a justification for them being indigenous. Most stories that bother to include us all occur out west, or near a reservation, or require native spiritualism somehow. About half of indigenous people don’t live on a reservation, about 70,000 last I checked lived in New York City alone. We could just be a character’s neighbor. We could be a coworker, a rival, it doesn’t matter we can exist in any story that takes place on the North American continent because we can be found any place on the North American continent. But you never see that presented in fictional media.

Castlevania Nocturne takes place in France. And Olrox is just unapologetically Aztec. His character didn’t need to be. But he is. And that makes me smile. So I gotta give kudos to Castlevania Nocturne.

Banging my head against the wall watching Olrox tell Tera that she can accept her vampirism and still stay true to herself and keep her love for her daughter in her heart, only for her to basically tell him to fuck off

Tearing my hair out watching Olrox get branded, risk his position to protect Mizrak and warn him of what's coming, and tell him—a man trying to repent for the role he played in all this shit—that he is driven by LOVE only to be called a demon and a devil

I have a bunch of half-formed thoughts I can't articulate just yet but GOD DAMN the tragedy of Olrox's character keeps me up at night

[vampire-tman]

yes the exchange between juste and mizrak is funny as hell but ppl are failing to remember what makes it even funnier is that hes BANGING THE VAMPIRE THAT KILLED HIS DAUGHTER. BROS IN DANGER.
