Alfred

Overview

Alfred is a powerful alchemist and a former member of the Alchemy Guild (responsible for the demonic uprising ten years prior to the events of Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night).

During the events of Ritual of the Night, he crosses paths with Miriam a few times in the castle (threatening to kill her if she does not leave the castle). It is quickly revealed that he is acting on his own, searching for a powerful tome known as the Liber Logaeth (currently in possession by Gebel). Johannes, one of his former students, distrusts Alfred's motives.

In the English version of Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, he is voiced by Christopher Swindle.

Curse of the Moon

In the companion game Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon, Alfred is a minor protagonist who is rescued by Zangetsu and, depending on the player's actions, can join him as a playable ally.

If Alfred is sacrificed, Zangetsu gains the Blood Moon Soul Art, which allows him to perform a double jump.
