Dracula continues to be the main antagonist in Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, just as he was in the first game. However, his role in this sequel is slightly different. After being defeated by Simon in the first game, Dracula has returned in a new form. He has divided his body into several pieces, scattering them across the world. Dracula's ultimate goal remains the same: to conquer the world and bring darkness to humanity. Although Dracula doesn't appear frequently, he is the mastermind behind the events of the game and controls the various demons and monsters.

Dracula remains the most important character in the Castlevania series. He represents evil and is the ultimate enemy that Simon must defeat. Conquering Dracula is Simon's ultimate goal. Dracula in Castlevania II: Simon's Quest is still the main antagonist, but his role has evolved. He is now divided into pieces, making the task of defeating him more challenging.
