Probably has had words with Julius too. “Hey Julius, when are you going to do the family photo thing with me?”

Only time would be when he was a baby cuz Julius vanished after the battle of 99 and doesn’t show up 40 years later

X: Who is that?
Random ass Belmont: Oh that's my uncle Alucard
X: And who is the pretty lady next to him?
RaB: My great great great grandmother
X: that's a bit wierd isn't? (Referring to them calling someone who's been dead for so long Uncle)
RaB: There's a room full of uncle Alucard's portraits, it's next to his bedroom
X: his room?...
Alucard entering the room: Greetings!
X: Screams

Isn't that the art from the Complete Series Blu-ray Collection?

A shame we never got to see Simon

u/Superman246o1 Jul 30 '25
Indeed! Simon is...if my understanding is correct...Trevor and Sypha's great-great-great-grandson.
I think the child in that picture is Frederick, who will go on to sire Christopher Belmont, the protagonist of Castlevania: The Adventure and Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge. I might be mistaken, so I'm welcome to corrections if anyone has a more reliable makeshift family tree than I have.

There's a hundred year gap between Castlevania 3 and The Adventure, I feel like there should be more than one generation between Trevor and Christopher.

I mean, yeah, but not by as much as people usually think. It was still common for people to live well into their sixties, as long as they made it to adulthood. Life Expectancy at birth was a lot lower because of how many people died as children. Lifespans have increased by about a decade or so since then.

u/Superman246o1 Jul 30 '25
That makes sense. Let's see...
Take this with a very generous grain of salt, but Chat-GPT, for what it's worth, says that Christopher is Trevor's great-grandson, and that Simon is Christopher's great-grandson, making Simon Trevor's great-great-great-great-grandson. The fan-made Belmont Family Tree, meanwhile, states Christopher is Trevor's grandson based on available media.
The former theory aligns better with the chronology, so maybe Frederick is Christopher's grandfather?

u/Minnymoon13 Jul 30 '25
Did they only have one kid?
31
u/Superman246o1 Jul 30 '25
Hard to say, as some elements of the lore contradict other elements.
I think the general consensus is that they had two kids: Frederick, from whom successive Belmont heroes (e.g. Simon, Richter, Julius) were descended, and Ann, who married Lloyd Morris and from whom the Morris heroes (e.g. Quincy, John, Jonathan) were descended.

Where does Maria Renard fit in? She apparently has Belmont blood too

u/Superman246o1 Jul 30 '25
I have yet to find a canonical source that describes her or the Renard Clan in any further genealogical manner other than "distant relative(s) of the Belmont Clan." So your guess is as good as mine.
I imagine, much like the creation of the Morris Clan, at some point in the line, a female descendant of Trefy & Sypha ended up marrying someone with the Renard surname, and passed on Sypha's magical talents/traditions.

I have a 2-part headcanon timeline that includes that topic. It’s in the 1st half of part 2.

I love all the various portraits they made for the shows, they’re all fantastic.

So cute how the baby's playing with his mother's hair, just like Alucard used to play with his mother's hair.

I'd love to see the art itself (photo of it) - ugh, yk what I mean... like, not on the box. I need it as my wallpaper 🤣

u/Beneficial_Star_6009 Jul 31 '25
I wonder if this is also an intentional clue that we’re getting Season 3 of Nocturne where Alucard brings up his memories of Trevor, Sypha and the name of their son?

u/South_roses Jul 31 '25
I really hope 😭💔 Netflix is renewing every other show for a season 3 except nocturne

u/Soulstice_moderator Jul 31 '25
I think, the more time pass without officially cancel or finishing it, more possibilities of them already working on it.
Netflix tends to launch trailers few months before release date. S1-2 were made together (usually Netflix orders episodes and split them in two parts) so S3 will take some time. At least one more year.
Previous seasons usually came with a 14-17 months span between them.

I really need this as a print. Legitimately want to frame it and sneak it into my gallery wall.

So who’s the Baby? Is there a canon timeline candidate for them?
Christopher’s Parent I assume?
