Alucard, secretly Count Dracula, is the main protagonist of the anime/manga series Hellsing. He is the Hellsing Organization's trump card and he is a powerful Transcendent Vampire. He is a combination of Count Dracula and Vlad the Impaler. He is loyal to his master Integra Hellsing, the long time friend of Walter C. Dornez and is affectionate towards his fledgling Seras Victoria. He is a vampire hunter due to being the servant of the Hellsing family and has been modified to stand against his own kind. Although considered to be anti-hero, Alucard is a remorseless and pitiless vampire who has no qualms about being a monster and taking lives of innocent (even nonchalantly stated by himself).
He is voiced by Jōji Nakata (who also voiced Sojiro Sakura in Persona 5, Sol Badguy in Guilty Gear and Leonidas in 300) in the Japanese version of the anime and Crispin Freeman (who also voiced Itachi Uchiha in Naruto, Siegfried Schtauffen in Soulcalibur III and Helios in the God of War series) in the English version.
Appearance[]
His usual outfit is comprised mainly in a classic Victorian fashion, including a charcoal suit, leather riding boots, and a flamboyant, intricately knotted red cravat, covered by a long, red duster. He also wears a red fedora hat with a wide, floppy brim and a pair of circular, heavily tinted, wire-framed red sunglasses with goggle sidings. He has a vast range of supernatural techniques and is an expert gunfighter, his enhanced strength allowing him to wield pistols that most would consider heavy weaponry.
Personality[]
As he is immortal and invincible, Alucard is very egotistical. He has little regard for the lives of those he kills. He often fights with extreme cruelty, and could be labeled as a sociopath for his tendencies to torture his opponents. However, he holds a strict moral that only human beings can kill monsters as shown when he was fighting Father Anderson. He said that he'd gladly die fighting a human but quickly show disgust when Father Anderson pierced his heart with the Helena's nail, transforming him to a monster.
He's also very loyal to his master Integra wherein he hesitantly asks his master what to do next and obeys it without complaining.
Biography[]
Beginnings[]
His reign of terror is stuff of legends, Dracula would meet his arch nemesis a man named Abraham Van Hellsing. Taking and turning Mina Harker, The young wife of Jonathan Harker a retailer from England. This was in the end Dracula's undoing as Jonathan teamed up with Van Hellsing and finally faced Dracula head on, Van Hellsing defeated the beast but never killed him, It is not known why Dracula joined Abraham and now serves all his descendants.

Dornez a young Hellsing operative, to destroy a group of Nazi's named Millennium who are trying to create a group of powerful vampire warriors. During the battle Girlycard is cut in half and the young Walter is left to face most of Millenniums power alone. It is unclear what happened here and has lead to much speculation between fans. What is known for sure is that Alucard was later imprisoned by Arthur believing that Alucard was a drug that could become too easy to use him for everything. Sadly Arthur died in 1989 and left the Hellsing organization in the hands of his twelve year old daughter Integra Fairbrooks Hellsing.
The Evil Uncle[]
This of course did not sit well with her uncle Richard Hellsing, who began hunting her round the Hellsing manor in order to kill her. It is unknown why Walter C. Dornez was away at the time of Arthur ’s death, but many believe he had planned what happened next as Richard hunted, Integra. Remembering her father’s words, she went looking for the powerful weapon that would protect her. She found a mummified corpse in a room and felt defeated. Her Uncle had found her, lifting his hand he strikes her and draws blood that lands in front of the corpse, it starts to move as Richard makes a grand speech, in a flash the two guards that had come with Richard were killed by the reborn Dracula now known as Alucard. Richard opened fire to only be strangled by the monstrous vampire. Dropping his gun Richard is dropped to the floor and Integra shoots him. Bowing down Alucard swears his loyalty to the real Hellsing blood line.

Returning to Integra he hands over Seras and Integra ask him why he turned her and he smile replies why not and walks away.
Powers and Abilities[]
“ | Cut off his head? Stabbed through his heart? Don't think of him as one of those vampires. He won't die from just that! Just as you're the crystallization of anti-monster technology... ...the Hellsing family has spent 100 years gloriously building him into the ultimate undead. The vampire Alucard! | „ |
~ Integra describing Alucard's power to Alexander Anderson. |
Alucard, like all vampires, requires blood to stay alive. However it is not shown in Hellsing as to wether what would happen if a vampire was not to drink blood. Seras Victoria tried to stay away from blood as much as possible during the first half of the manga and had no adverse effect whatsoever. Also, Alucard survivng 30 years without drinking blood can raise the speculations that Vampires do not require blood to survive but can be only be regarded as a craving. But it is still unclear whether Alucard survived because of his new found power.
- Super Strength: Alucard can lift far in excess of 10 tons effortlessly.
- Super Speed: Alucard can move at teleportation-like speeds.
- Superhuman Reflexes: Alucard can catch objects moving at supersonic speeds with ease. He even caught Rip Van winkle's bullet and fought father Anderson multiple times to a standstill (both were moving faster than average vampires which usually dodges multiple machine gun fires).
Weapons[]
Alucard is an exceedingly lethal combatant even when unarmed, due to his extensive supernatural abilities and strength, but he also uses various weapons in battle. These have included swords, machine guns, and traditional vampire-slaying tools such as stakes and crosses. Additionally, Alucard has two signature weapons, a pair of oversized and overpowered handguns named the .454 Casull and the Jackal. In Hellsing: The Dawn, he wielded a Thompson Sub-Machine Gun.
Quotes[]
“ | Anderson, stop it! Do you know what that thing will do to you?! You'll become one of God's monsters! Retain your humanity. Don't succumb to power! Either side, it amounts to the same deal: whether in the name of the divine or the demonic, you're still a monster in the end! Do you intend to use that scrap of miracle... to become nothing but a scrap of miracle yourself?! This duel... between us... would you really push it this far - into the realms that lie beyond the realm of mortal life? A monster such as myself... a creature of such weakness that I could not bear the weight of a human life... if I am to be defeated, it must be by a human! Don't do it, human. Don't become a monster... a monster like me... | „ |
~ Alucard to Alexander Anderson. |
