Notes from author
A stab at recreating a gaming icon for Dark Souls.
The Stat layout is to keep you alive and make best use of the Notched Whip and Battle Axe.
The Notched Whip is here for obvious reasons, and it needs to be divine to believably be a vampire slaying tool, the Battle Axe is, I feel, the best way to represent the throwing axes of Castlevania.
Target Shield was chosen because of the great parries, which can give you time to get distance, or riposte, up to you.
Sunlight Talisman seems to make the most sense to use miracles, since Simon would probably be drawn to it, being a vampire slayer and all.
The armor choice is what I feel looks the best and sticks close to the original game artwork.
The rings are to give you bonuses the armor lacks.
Sunlight Blade is the chosen buff since, once again, Simon kills vampires. It just adds up. Wrath of the Gods because it is effective.
Items: Estus for when you get invaded. Divine Blessing in case you invade. Black Firebomb = Holy Water. Poison Throwing Knife = Daggers. Lloyd's Talisman = Sorta close to the Stopwatch, and it's just very useful when invading.
