== Richter ==
:''Main article [[SOTN Richter| Richter]]''
Richter runs start at full speed and never slow down. Very heavy in execution and extremely merciless due to his low hp.

== Maria ==
:''Main article [[SOTN Maria| Maria]]''
Played on the Sega Saturn. Categories are separated between emu and console due to significant differences in performance. Maria starts with all of her powers unlocked like Richter, but is much more resilient.

== Input Reader / Input Mechanics ==
*Whenever Alucard transitions from a ground state to an air state, there is a 7 frame period where he retains some properties of ground state. He can walk, but still has falling speed, and can jump, allowing you to get an extra horizontal boost if a jump is too far to make normally.
*States when the game is frozen and doesn't progress logically also halt the input countdowntimer. Level ups, transition screens and the menu do that. Example: You can start a Wingsmash input, enter a screen transition or level up, then resume the input after regaining control.
*Blue doors will allow you to buffer an action but not special moves.
