~ Albus to Brachyura |
Summary
Albus was a chief researcher of the Ecclesia Order from Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. From the beginning of the story Albus stole parts of Dominus which were key in defeating Dracula. Later on its revealed that he stole Dominus because he wanted to protect Shanoa from the heavy toll Dominus puts on the users body and soul, eventually killing them. He eventually died in a fight against Shanoa and willingly gave up his Soul so she could use Dominus against Dracula.
Albus himself is fairly powerful and has mastery over various Glyphs and is even able to somewhat control the life draining power of Dominus Agony. His main weapon is Agartha which he uses to project his Glyphs like with Max Shot, Optical Shot and Torpor. Though he should be fairly familiar with various other elemental Glyphs as he was trained since childhood. Albus is also fairly swift with his warping abillity and even dangerous upclose with his Ignis Kicks.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Agartha: Albus main way of attacking and using his various Glyphs are through his gun Agartha. It can shoot rapidly and indefinitely as long as Albus has enough magic to support it, it doesn't need bullets or projectiles as it is mainly powered through Magic. Albus can also combine his Glyphs and shoot them out from Agartha, though this is not limited by the gun as he can use Glyphs independently from it
- Glyph Mastery: Albus can fire a variety of Glyphs from Agartha the same way as Shanoa fires her Glyph from her arms, though Albus prefers Acerbatus, Torpor, and other types of shots suitable for Agartha.
- Torpor: Agartha can fire a Torpor Glyph that incapacitates its victim in a crystal cage. It has the longest cooldown in Albus's arsenal. It is an Ice based Glyph.
- Optical Shot: Agartha can also fire a magic wave of black and white. The light wave will spiral into where Agartha marks before released as an outward spiral in an opposite direction. The black and white light waves do either light or dark damage, depending on the opponent. Along with Max Shot, it has the second longest cooldown. It is also called Vertical Shot.
- Max Shot: A powerful Glyph. Agartha can fire an Acerbatus Glyph that curses the victim, shocks with electrical damage, and consumes the enemy in darkness. Albus inserts the Acerbatus Glyph into Agartha's barrel, and fires Agartha, launching a large black ball of darkness with yellowish skulls. Along with Optical Shot, it has the second longest cooldown. It is also called Casper Shot. While battling him, he says " Glyph in Bullet!"
- Quad Ignis: Albus also masters a spinning flame kick which does a ton of damage and is easily one of his strongest attacks, though it is entirely melee based and has almost no horizontal range.
- Warp: Possibly his best ability in the game, Albus can warp to wherever he chooses in an area and however many times he desires, as long as he has the Magic to do so.
