Time for the second Lord of Shadow! The Lord of Vampires, Carmilla! She shows up technically in both games, but I'll go into detail later on that.
So, I'm not certain about her part in the main series, but these are a few pics that I could find of her!
Honestly, I love these designs! I think these really fit her personality! Of course, again, I only know what she's like in LoS. Now, in LoS she shows up in three different forms. So in order: Her Lord of Shadow form, her beast form, and her human form.
I love her battle in LoS1, but she is the easiest Lord to win against in my opinion. When I first played through the game, Cornell took me seven tries, and I beat Carmilla on the first try. In LoS2, the castle uses her human image to try and seduce Dracul back under its control. You do get a game over if you accidentally pick her over Marie. Her stealth maze section is one of the most painful things to go through. The only one more of a pain is Agreus.
Getting back to her in LoS1. She is a fun boss, the final QTE for her is SO good! That scene is one of my strongest pieces of evidence that Gabriel probably wasn't a human to begin with. She has sired a ton of vampires in LoS1, including a child she kidnapped and adopted, and demons as well. It also states, that in a moment of remembering who she was, she imprisoned Frankenstein and Olrox uses him as an endless blood bag. Anyway, these are the vampires that you face off with!
Starting with the basic vampire. One holy water, and you can insta kill them, nothing super special.
Next comes the Demon-Vampire Brothers, Brauner and Olrox. They are known as ancient vampires, which are demons who were summoned on Earth, possibly by a certain Bernhard, and got turned into vampires by Carmilla. Brauner and Olrox are the only two you face off against. Also, there is a puzzle with Olrox's blood when you defeat him, and if you had a TV like mine at the time, make sure your brightness is as high as it can go. Brauner on the left, Olrox on the right.
Then there is Laura. Laura was a child, around the age of 9-12, that Carmilla kidnapped and turned. Your introduction to her is her challenging you to a game known as the Vampire War Game. Admittedly, it's difficult but really fun. However, she is a very important character. She is also one of the rare cases, where you can play as a character that isn't a Belmont. During the DLC of LoS1, she calls Gabriel and has him help her defeat a demon known as The Forgotten One. However, in order for Gabriel to face off with said demon, he needs to be turned. Laura gives him the curse of Vampirism, and Gabriel grants her eternal rest. She also battles Gabriel with living rag dolls, and they are the most difficult things in the castle, next to the chef. Anyways, this is Laura!
Also! In LoS2 there is a hidden room in the castle, known as the Forbidden Room. Inside this room are two tombs. One is dedicated to Marie, the other one is dedicated to Laura. So Gabriel did think highly of this child, and clearly he adored her enough to dedicate a space in the same area as his beloved. I still think he saw her as a daughter, and that is a hill I will die on. Oh, yeah this is what I could find of her in the main games, where she is an adult character:

It's so funny when people put Guillermo in a pedestal like like if he was a good person?????
He's so fucked up????? He's the most fucked up of them all actually?????
Like people saying nandor doesn't deserve him my sweeties they're the only people in the world who can endure one another
Also like I do believe Guillermo would get so bored if Nandor became like a sweet lovely basic boyfriend he loves the unhingedness he thrives on the violence

“People expect so much of an attractive person. I mean people are very critical on me. It makes me tense. Even when I lay down I’m tense. I’ve got an enormous imagination. I imagine all kinds of things. Like that I’m all washed up, I’m finished. I think sometimes that people don’t want me around. I don’t like to be alone though. When I’m alone my imagination gets all creepy.” -Sharon Tate, 1967.
