	Games - Richter Belmont

Richter Belmont is a hero from the Castlevania
series of video games. He has starred in three games, one of which is considered to be a remix. In Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, he became a villain.

Dracula, after being resurrected by the dark priest Shaft, commanded his forces to kidnap Richter's girlfriend Annette Renard, her younger sister Maria Renard, and other town women. Now Richter had to deal with the Count's massive army, including Shaft, and arrive in time to save the women. Young Richter proved to himself that he was worthy by fulfilling his vampire-hunting destiny.

Soon after, Richter was coaxed to the side of evil by the magic of Shaft, who had somehow survived the earlier defeat at the hands of the Belmont. It was Alucard who arose from his slumber, braved the evil castle, and freed Richter from that control with Maria's help. Despite his lapse during this era, Richter is largely recognized as the most powerful Belmont.
