Another redesign of an older Carrie Fernandez from Castlevania 64/Legacy of Darkness. Because, well, never been totally satisfied with my other stuff, and because I'll be damned if I let ~AlexPascenko have more Carrie related crap than me! Been a while since I did something this loose, and it was pretty damn fun~

Warning: Nerd rant incoming!

There's always been something that bugged me about all of alexpascenko's redesigns (Not that they aren't awesome on their own, mind you), and something that was missing in mine, and thinking about it, yeah what the hell, personality's totally not there. While that Alexdude might well be doing a full and total revamp of CV64, I still like characters to retain most of what makes them them, and I realized why his stuff seems off to me: Carrie, with the game's canon, would never be some sultry sorceress, or dress in anything that was remotely skimpy or fashionable: She is stated, flat out to hate adults after having two of her families murdered. And I certainly don't think she would embrace her feminine side as she grew older. She's out to hunt evil that would harm children, not grab the attention of men.

Also, comparing her backstory to her male counterpart, I've realized why I like her so much more, and why, even though she was a little kid, she seemed like a much better choice to hunt down Dracula. Carrie is born into a band Spanish immigrants that were traveling through Europe, the leader of which falls under Dracula's influence and pretty much everyone dies, including her parents. She manages to escape and gets adopted by a loving step mother. Who then dies to protect her from Dracula's invading minions. Carrie has lost her world twice to Dracula, and renounced God which is pretty big in a game universe where God factually exists. Reinhardt? He... gets picked on for not carrying the Belmont name... and then everything is okay because he gets chosen to carry the whip and becomes a man of God. It's basically his job to hunt Dracula. The hell do I care to play some guy who's doing his genetic duty when there's a pissed off little girl with magic out to double-avenge her families?

And their bad endings? Reinhardt's girl he just met doesnt come back to life, and he leaves with kid-morphed Dracula. Well, bad end cuz you just failed your mission, sure. But Carrie's? She gets tricked into agreeing to a "binding contract" to marry kid-morphed Dracula. Not only do you fail your mission, you just ruined her entire life. You just made her, after all he's done to her, the next bride of Dracula. CONGRATS ASSHOLE!

Okay. its 2am. Enough nerding out for now.
