 Castlevania II: Simon's Quest - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is the year 1698, seven years after Simon Belmont originally defeated the evil Count Dracula.
Once all the parts of Dracula's body were in place, Simon took them to the ancestral home of the count, Castlevania, and revived him, fighting him once again, and this time finishing him for good (or so the people thought, though Dracula would return in the 18th Century)...
Simon's appearance in this game is much more similar to his debut in Vampire Killer (the first game Konami made in the Castlevania Timeline), wearing a red armor instead of the brown, "neo-barbarian" outfit from the last game.

 Complete Castlevania story(with belmont family tree!~) - GameWinners.com Forums
Indeed, the Belmonts would continue to be gifted with supernatural powers; with this, the natural ability to fight and destroy vampires--whereas mere mortals could only combat such evil through other means (driving a stake through their hearts, decapitating them and burning their heads, etc.); the Belmonts would have the power and the weaponry.
The Belmont family name, through time, as had most families', was split over several factions from marriage, it deviating from the surname--some changed their names, like the Baldwins and Graves, and most others disappeared.
It was a group of vampire hunters, led by Julius Belmont, the heir to the Belmont clan of legend, that ultimately sealed Dracula's fate by destroying him and finally ending his regeneration cycle by sealing his castle, the symbol of his demonic power, within the darkness of an eclipse.

It is revealed that Maxim accidentally came into possession of some of Dracula's disembodied remains (as Simon Belmont had), and the dark presence within those remains polluted his mind.

Castlevania II: Simon's Quest isn't a bad game by any means, but the Vampire Killer-like gameplay combined with a rather easy difficulty level didn't sit well with fans of the series.
Aside from these minor details, Simon and Trevor are basically the same, since they use the same special weapons, walk in the same manner, and have the same jumping and whipping abilities.
His primary fireball attack has a small delay, so attacking some of the quicker enemies, like bats, is a little more difficult, but his ability to change into a bat makes some of the later levels much easier because you can bypass entire sections by just flying to the exit.
