Bolt Ericson

is an unused playable character from Castlevania: Bloodlines. He was intended to be a member of the Ericson Clan, one of several offshoots of the Belmont Clan which had many talented vampire hunters. They were descendants of Leif Ericson who had married Amanda, a descendant of Christopher Belmont.
Bolt could wield a spiked Hammer, which could level up twice (Wooden Hammer > Iron Hammer > Shockwave Hammer). It could attack straightforward, or used in a variety of vertical attacks. It could also smash through ceilings.

==Trivia==
*Bolt's concept design is reminiscent of the Barbarian enemy in Castlevania: Bloodlines; domed helmet, muscular and wielding a spiked mace. It is possible that after being scrapped, Bolt's design was repurposed to create the Barbarian.
*Bolt's design may have been inspired by the Norse god of thunder, Thor, who wielded a hammer. 
*Bolt's weapon could have been intended to be Mjollnjr, Thor's hammer. It could have been a legendary weapon passed through his family like the Vampire Killer or Alucard Spear. In Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, Mjollnjr can be evolved from a Morgenstern, which resembles Bolt's weapon.
