Celia Fortner

"Celia is a shadow priestess that exercises great magical power and is the founder of a mysterious cult that will stop at nothing to orchestrate the second coming of the Evil Lord. With the disappearance of Dracula, she senses that the magical world has weakened, and in turns fears the loss of her own power. As a result, she plans to plunge Soma's mind into darkness in an attempt to seize the power of the Evil Lord." Celia Fortner (セリア・フォルトゥナ Seria foruto~una?, lit. "Celia Fortuna") is the main antagonist in Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow and is the figurehead of With Light, a religious cult similar to that of Graham Jones' own. She leads her cult through the vast belief of the balance between Good and Evil; for Good to truly exist, there must also be Evil, as neither can truly exist without each other. Since the true figure of Evil in the Castlevania series is the vampire Lord of Darkness, Count Dracula, she believes that this dark lord must exist for Good to be true. Since Dracula was defeated for good in 1999 by Julius Belmont, and Soma Cruz –who is the reincarnation of Dracula– rejected his predestined fate and did not take the Dark Lord's place, Celia is convinced that the balance is completely off and arranges for Soma's doom in 2036. Her surname in Japanese フォルトゥナ (Foruto~una), translates as "Fortuna", which is Spanish (among other languages) for "Fortune", likely being a reference to her witch-like powers, which may include divination (or "fortune reading").
