Really weird oversight but hey, what can you do. Back to the normal topic now.

Alright, so some of you may know already that there are nearly 40 secrets to discover and I wanted to see if people are onto ideas/have already unlocked many? This seems to be secrets made specifically for big fans of Castlevania Lore.

I did a few runs. Through that, I have unlocked five characters.

Doing my final run as Dracula, I have unlocked;
You don't need his services if you can walk on water (Ferryman)
Bring bad luck to the Count's belligerent bosses (Graham)
Kill fleamen? I killed only 220 though, so must count all variants (Fleaman)
Give the deceiver a taste of her own medicine (Succubus)
Hold the stones that birthed your lineage and prove dominance over all your monstrous minions (Megalo Dracula)

I do not even know how I got most of these, as they were by accident. Theories;
Walk on water, but the fact that I was walking on water seems to be a bug, since I was able to go through EVERY wall from pure speed. Actual trigger idk.
I didn't do any runs with a character with negative luck, so not sure for that.
I did do a run with a reflect build with Richter, and Soul Steal for Soma. There is no Succubus enemy in the castle I've found though so idk
Dracula I simply killed every boss but one in a single run. There's a boss panel next to the top left room I never figured out how to activate. Walking over did nothing. Bug?

As for theories for other secrets:
A secret so big it won't pass through the castle doors, potentially never enter the castle at all?
Reconnect the youngest hunter.... Unlocks Young Maria. Her pets could be her guardians? So familiars/the birds and the Gemini card?
Make it feel at home unlocks Death. Bring Red Death? If castlevania characters only, idk
Go low and kill 3mil of those jokers unlocks a Cave Troll. Kill a specific enemy in Drac's basement area 3mil of?
Burn bright until the end... Assuming only castlevania characters are to be used, Charlotte and use only her starter weapon/evo. If all non-other-DLC characters are included, Avatar?

Any ideas people?

Origineel geplaatst door Treasure "Hato" Clint:

Adding everything I've found thus far for those that are curious:

Young Maria: Evolve both Birds into Vandalier and have Gemini active at the same time as all four Familiars on Maria.
Familiar/Innocent Devil: Get Familiar Forge twice as Julia Updated with newer information
Blue Crescent Moon Cornell: I'm not sure if you need his transformation, but you absolutely need 100000 kills in one run since he's basically a Megalo.
Ferryman: Clip onto the water outside of the castle, specifically the bit north of the entrance. Several people have mentioned you need the upgraded version of Nathan's starting weapon, just a heads up.
Master Librarian: Buy everything in his store once.
Hammer: Have 6 Castlevania weapons from the Coat of Arms fully upgraded.
Wind: Trigger Eric's near-death ability three times in one game. Thanks for the tip, Ragna!
Sisters (and PoR Duo): Sanctuary's timed ability needs to hit the boss versions of the Sisters, unlocking them.
Brauner: Drain his paintings, which spawn in at around 24 minutes and 26-28 minutes, using the Blood Astronomia arcana. Thank you so much, Meta!
Soleil: The same as Sisters, actually. Sanctuary and cure his ass.
Dario: Win a run without using anything but the basic fire spell. Just go to the no enemies moving map and idle there.
Dmitri: Kill Menace with Celia. You need to kill Menace in general to get full castle exploration, but it's in the sewers part of the castle if you need a reminder.
Celia: Have both Light and Dark glyphs maxed out at the same time.
Graham: Beat every boss. Might need to be in one run? Specifically, the ones before Pile of Secrets.
Joachim: Kill Joachim with Sara. Joachim can be found in a hidden icy alcove in the blue caves, after acquiring the Pile of Secrets.
Walter: Kill Walter with Rinaldo. Walter spawns to the east of the first passive-picker once you've acquired the Pile of Secrets.
Carmilla CURRENTLY BUGGED: Kill her with the upgraded Hex spell. Current assumption is that you need to use the upgraded Vampire Killer instead once it's fixed. She spawns in the 3x3 grid of bridges right before the clock tower after you've acquired the Pile of Secrets.
Olrox: Kill Olrox with Dark Rift. Olrox spawns in the fancy hall area in the east after acquiring the Pile of Secrets. Same area as Eligor, if that's any help. Thanks, Flitz and Ragna!
Cave Troll: Fairly certain it's just a kill count, so kill lots. Not that you can check it, because Cave Troll isn't in the bestiary.
Fleaman: Kill count. Probably the one you'll unlock at the same time as the secrets? At least I got it then.
Axe Armor: Kill an amount of Axe Armors with the upgraded Discus. There's a brown room in the chapel-like area which has almost infinitely spawning axe armors. Go farm there. Thanks Flitz!
Frozenshade: Kill an amount with the upgraded Rock spell. Unsure specific amount, but Joachim's room spawns a ton so just go to town. Thanks Flitz!
Succubus: Kill her with the upgraded version of Hex. She spawns in the same room as one of Dracula's glyphs. You'd be hard pressed to miss this spawn.
Keremet: Kill Keremet with the PoR duo. Might work with sisters too. It spawns in the top left part of the castle, a little to the east of the door leading to Beelzebub.
Alamaric Sniper: Killcount based unlock, kill enough of these with the upgraded Discus. Updated, thanks EzkaTKoB!
Blackmore: Kill Blackmore with Barlowe. You'd need to find him to get this far regardless, but he's in the area where Julius' coffin was. To the west of Paranoia.
Malphas: Kill Malphas with Quincy. In case you missed it, Malphas spawns at 25 minutes.
Death: Trigger the Death sequence with the Clock Tower in your inventory. Get all four clockwork weapons and union them to get the Clock Tower.
Galamoth: Kill Galamoth with the Power of Sire. Easily accomplished with Dracula, the Dominus picker and the magnet Arcana to pick up the other two pieces He's found in the maze-like area with the Mummy Man after the Pile of Secrets is acquired
Megalo Elizabeth, Olrox, Dracula, Death: Usual Megalo requirement, AKA kill 100000 enemies in one run. Obviously, get the relic to let them transform first.

Thanks to everyone who helped! The final reward is dope!

Nope, you did not. You just need to buy everything from the librarian. Not needed to be on the same character.

Anyone having issues with evolving Alucard's Spear? I got wings, both are max level but they never evolved.

Alucard's sword once evolving into shield may cause evolution issues. Also, make sure you didnt accidentally seal the evolution.

Also seriously, can we get this pinned to the front or something? XD

This is the plan, but I am waiting for Hato to give me the all-clear since editing becomes impossible I'm pretty sure. Rather be safe and make sure that its how they want it

So fun little thing to do - I don't think it's related to any secrets:
If you wait until 30 minutes before entering the doppelganger room, the reaper gets deleted(not killed, no eggs drop - unsure if it counts for the unlock rerquirement) The timer is paused while you fight the doppelganger and afterwards there is no reaper. A new one spawns every minute though so you only have a little respite

Is there a Spell for unlocking Brauner? I've killed so many paintings with Blood Astronomia and it has not unlocked him. It's so time consuming and just not working for me.

I'm not sure if this helps, but when I got it I was running Soul Drain. Given the wording for the secret, that would add up.

You need to be FULL out blood astronomia items

I never used Soul drain, its not part of blood astronomia and i got it.

Reminder that Red Death does not drop Golden Eggs if not killed via Shroud/Corridor. Red Death just dies normally like any other mob if killed through damage or some other gimmick.
Skelemari on Bone Zone can eat Red Death for example.

Oh and as for unlocking Brauner, I personally went in with Dracula, chose Ebony so I could Skip and have no starting weapon, and just went all in on Paranormal Scan, Laurel, Clock Lancet (not sure if worth), and Attractorb of course, and purely survived on Blood Astronomia damage (which is terrible, by the way, even died once).
But zero competing damage sources and one attempt to unlock.

If I had to do it again, I might've turned off Limit Break and considered Pentagram (no LB so it doesn't chain fire and infinitely level-up as Gorgeous Moon).
