Short Bio:
Since the 15th Century, the proud continent of Europe was threatened time and time again by the evil vampire lord Dracula. Every time Dracula attempted to annihilate the continent, he would be thwarted by a brave member of the infamous Belmont Clan, whose family duty was to protect humanity from the mad vampire. However, by the turn of the 19th Century, the Belmont Clan mysteriously vanished from history, leaving no one to stand against Lord Dracula.
In the Belmonts' place rose a number of church-backed organizations, each with the agenda of researching ways to destroy the vampire lord permanently. The most prominent of these groups was the Order of Ecclesia, whose elder Barlowe devised a unique way of killing Dracula: using his own magic against him.
Shanoa, an orphaned student who was taken into Ecclesia, was trained brutally all her life in her order's magic arts. Shanoa was found to possess a unique gift: the power to absorb magic glyphs into her body and use them as weapons. At age twenty, her master chose her to be the bearer of the Dominus glyphs that would destroy Dracula once and for all. However, the ritual that would've given Shanoa the glyphs was sabotaged by Albus, a jealous student who wanted to be the bearer of Dominus instead. The failed ritual not only stole Shanoa's powers, but even her memories and emotions. However, her ability to absorb glyphs was still intact. With no options left, Shanoa was sent on a dangerous quest to find Albus and recover her stolen powers and memories, while taking down any of Dracula's monsters along the way.
Feats:
* Is the second woman to be the protagonist of a Castlevania game.
** The first being Sonia Belmont from Castlevania: Legends.
* Is the only person capable of wielding the Dominus Glyph without going insane.
* Defeats ghosts, zombies, werewolves, and gigantic monsters on a regular basis.
* Rescued the entire population of of Wygol Village.
* Defeated her childhood friend Albus in a one-on-one duel.
** Albus was roughly as powerful as Shanoa herself
* Uncovered Barlowe's plan to use Dominus to resurrect Dracula, not destroy him.
* Fought and explored her way through Dracula's entire castle.
* Finally defeated Dracula himself and sealed him away once more.
* Is borderline OP in the fighting game spinoff, Castlevania: Judgement.

Powers and Abilities:
Glyph Magic:
*Glyphs are magic, floating runes that Shanoa absorbs into her skin via three tattoos (two on her forearms and one on her back).
* Most of the Glyphs Shanoa finds come from fallen enemies who already possess the power their particular Glyph represents. (i.e., Sword enemies have Sword Glyphs; Archer enemies have Bow Glyphs)
* These Glyphs allow Shanoa to use a wide variety of weapons, including swords, lances, knives, axes, bows, hammers, sickles, and shields.
* They also give her multiple elemental powers, including fire, water, earth, wind, lightning...and basically everything else.
* Her two "arm" Glyphs are for weapons or magic powers while her "back" Glyphs are used for support powers, including flight, health/strength regen, and other powers.
* Shanoa can also perform "Glyph Unions", which combines two different Glyphs to create a single, more powerful attack. However, doing so consumes hearts (which in Castlevania, are basically ammo. Don't ask why).
Gameplay Videos:
Dominus Glyphs:
* Shanoa's most powerful Glyphs, each one a copy of Dracula's powers.
* The three forms are Dominus Anger, Hatred, and Agony.
* Each one can obliterate an entire room full of enemies.
* Each has an attack power of 66.
* Were used to defeat Dracula in the final boss level of Order of Ecclesia.
** Summons several pillars of light, which then shower the floor surrounding Shanoa.
** Shanoa shouts "Light, fall like rain!" while performing this.
* Dominus Anger:
** Also known as "Dark Inferno."
** Fires a cluster of energy surrounding Shanoa.
** For footage, please watch the above video by SatanitusLord.
* Dominus Agony:
** The only support Dominus Glyph.
** Shrouds Shanoa in Dracula's magic, dramatically increasing her strength, intelligence, constitution, and magic resistance (mind).
* Glyph Union:
Finishing Move: Gale of Glyphs:
* Very aggressive: Uses little defense and prefers rushing towards her enemy with weapons or magic.
* Glyph magic requires recharging: Shanoa's Glyph magic consumes energy and needs to recharge each time. Fortunately, it only takes a few seconds for it to do so.
* Glyph Unions: Glyph Unions consume Hearts, which can't recharge and have to constantly be replaced.
* The Dominus Glyph:
** Dominus takes away 1/6 of Shanoa's health with each use.
** Worse, if she uses its Glyph Union, it'll kill her instantly!
*** Shanoa must only use this Glyph as an absolute last resort!

What level of power/Attack potency or hax is Shanoa exactly? I kinda bought around Building to Multi-City Block level+. But there seems to be contention as to how powerful Dracula is. Some claim that he's Multiversal because of his connection to the Chaos Realm and because he's supposedly stronger than the Time Reaper.
But others say that we don't really know how powerful he is comapred to the Time Reaper (only that he's stronger than Galamoth), and that the Word of God claim that supports the first side's evidence is not from someone who does not have the final say in Castlevania's canon.
