Do y’all think Messmer is inspired by this guy?

I stumbled across this guy from 1400 and I honestly think Fromsoft got inspired by him, what do y’all think? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vlad_the_Impaler (He’s called Vlad the Impaler).

He’s literally called Vlad the Impaler, like come on now, Messmer is called the Impaler too… And the red aesthetic overall looks similiar.

Yeah man, it's pretty obvious that their similarities aren't just a wild coincidence and he was inspired by Vlad III. Dracula.

Vlad the Impaler is literally the figure who inspired Dracula too :D

Fun historical tidbit about ol' Vlad (outside of his inspirational function for Stoker): he was apparently fastidious in his religious observances, and was reportedly very good to his mother.

Same man who went backdoor to piehole on his enemies with sharp poles.

Truly, people contain multitudes.

This is why you never judge a book by its cover. Just look at Otters and Dolphins, they looks so cute, but are basically the biggest criminals in the animal kingdom 😂

Adding to this, Dracula had the power of "mesmerism".

No, he was inspired by Richard Nixon. Where do you people come from?

Inspired is a rather generous term, more like some one at soft did a google search and though they had uncovered some obscure bit of history rather then then Dracula him self.
