This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?

A part-prequel/part-expansion follow-up to the original N64 Castlevania, Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness centers around a new werewolf protagonist named Cornell, who was intended to be one of the playable heroes in the first game, but got cut from the roster and was given his own starring role here instead. After completing Cornell's quest, the player gets to unlock truncated versions of Reinhardt's and Carrie's quests from the first game, reworked around the new levels and bosses from this game, but without their voice acting and most of their cutscenes due to space constraints.
