Born in {{s|wikipedia|Wallachia}} in 1773, Richter Belmont is the sixth direct descendant of the Belmont Clan, succeeding Juste Belmont and preceding Julius Belmont. The Clan was founded in 1094 by Leon Belmont, who swore that he and his descendants would always "hunt the night" in the wake of his betrayal by Mathias Cronqvist, his once-best friend who willingly transformed into a vampire and would later become known as the infamous [[Dracula]].

Unlike a typical vampire hunter, Richter boasts peak human physiology, thanks to the Belmont Clan's centuries-old training regimen and the magical blood of Sypha Belnades, a powerful witch who married Richter's distant ancestor, Trevor Belmont, after they defeated Dracula. Like Juste, Richter is also able to utilize the magical capabilities he inherited from Sypha. In Richter's case, he is able to use an Item Crash, which unleashes the hidden power of a sub-weapon, such as the Hydro Storm of [[Holy Water]] and the [[Grand Cross]] of a [[Cross]]. Unlike Juste, he is able to do it naturally instead of having to rely on a combination of spellbooks and sub-weapons.
