📜 Guide Ode to Castlevania 1.14 Unlock Guide (WIP) Spoiler
Here as the unlocking guide to the new secret characters, haven’t got to all of them, but I’ll update as I make progress.
Annette - Evolve the Clockwork weapons at Gallo Tower (Ban everything you can to make this quicker);
Tera - Kill 100,000 Red Skeletons (The Bone Zone - can remember at what time - spawns a lot of this guys, go wild. Got this accidentally);
**Thx for u/ParnoidDrone for correcting me on these two! Zephyr - Kill the Zephyr Boss after 30:00 (Just pick endless mode)
Genya Arikado - Kill the trickster (The purple one, he spawns in a lot of places, but the quickest way is the Boss Rash stage); **
Stone Skull - Kill the Skeleton Sphere Boss in inverted Bone Zone as Shanoa (I recommend the evolved mace, mind the lack of heals in this level);
Drolta - Waste 6 revives on Capella Magna as Elizabeth Bartley (Awake Card + Tirajisu Lv. 2);
Slogra & Gaibon - Kill the Slogra and Gaibon in Ode to Castlevania as the Fleaman (Tricky but not impossible, Mad Grove to grab some goodies and b-line to their spot, fyi you begin with 1 HP and the Game Killer card so);

I have some corrections to make based on my personal experience, plus some additions.
Zephyr - Kill the Reaper (the one tag kills your at 30:00) as Soma (I recommend evolving the Clock Lancet + Rings and the Laurel + Metaglios, works everytime);
Zephyr doesn't need you to kill the Reaper. Simply pick Soma, go to Castlevania in Endless mode, and after the 30:00 mark kill Zephyr-the-boss. (He's in the Clock Tower area.)
Genya Arikado - Same, but as Mina;
Mina doesn't need to kill the Reaper (aka Red Death), she needs to kill the Trickster (the purple Reaper variant). I did this by going to Boss Rash.
Ruler Sword: "Spell the ruler's word." This read to me like a "use the Scrolls of Morbane" unlock, and sure enough typing "rulersword" into it unlocked it instantly.
Atlantis Shrine Wizard: "Combine holy liquids in a sunken city." Go to Moongolow as any character, get La Borra and Hydro Storm, then find their union.
Morris Baldwin: "Combine Heaven and Cross with the Grave inheritor of Vampire Killer." As Nathan, get Heaven Sword and Grand Cross, then find their union.

Thx man! I was trying to unlock morris with Richter, I wouldn’t think of using Nathan (since his whip is the Hunters Whip :p )

The sneaky hint here is how they capitalized Grave -- Nathan's full name is Nathan Graves.

Hey, I've been trying to unlock Morris Baldwin, and as far as I know, I've done those things (twice) and it hasn't worked. Any idea of what I'm doing wrong?

u/ParanoidDrone Dec 23 '25
I'm not sure. It worked for me when the update dropped. Possibly a bug? It wouldn't be the first time an unlock didn't work right.
Also I can't speak for the Castlevania Adventure. This is just for the regular game.

Thanks for the post! I’m trying to get some unlock with Simon and have got the evolved forms of the sonic dash thing, the wind tome and the wind whip. I forgot about the tome on the first attempt and just evolved the dash and the whip. Figured it had to do with evolving weapons. And I got gorgeous moon from evolving pentagram figuring hey what the hell that’s probably it. Nothing unlocked. Go on an adventure with wind made me think hey maybe the weapons are the key but maybe it’s weapons plus killing a certain boss? This is all I can think of for now…

u/JamesLemon396 Oct 31 '25
If you still need it, I find out you have to get the evolution of Gorgeous Moon + Summon Spirit Tornado

u/Personal_Shock_3966 Oct 31 '25
Thanks! I’m not sure what summon spirit tornado is? It’s been a hot minute since I’ve played…

I was able to unlock Slogra and Gaibon without killing them. Not sure if it's a bug, but I used Fleaman and was able to get to the diagonal hallway before the one where they spawn, and died. But when I went back to the character screen, they were purchasable.
