Who is hellsing alucard

While Alucard possesses an extensive arsenal of supernatural abilities, the most fearsome is his power to absorb souls and then use their knowledge and skills to his advantage. During the Battle of London, Alucard summons the entire legion that dwells within him to fight by his side. Once transformed into Level Zero, Alucard is an unstoppable force who fills every enemy with dread. Alucard of Hellsing Ultimate. We will notify you when this product becomes available.

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 an anti-hero, Alucard is a remorseless and pitiless vampire who has no qualms about being a monster and taking lives of innocents even nonchalantly stated by himself. He is arguably the first vampire that ever existed. It is revealed in Alucard's flashback in Chapter 70 of Hellsing, Castlevania 2 that he was enslaved by Ottoman conquerors when he was a child and sodomized by a high ruler.

During the whole ordeal, he defiantly clenched a silver cross. When he became the Voivode of Wallachia, he launched an all-out war on the Turks which devastated both sides. Eventually, his troops were defeated, his people were killed although mostly executed by his own hands , and his homeland was set ablaze.

Vlad himself was to be executed. However, before he was beheaded, he drank of the blood from the battlefield and became a true vampire. When he accepted the powers of darkness, the silver cross he had always carried with him shattered.

Abraham Van Hellsing, Arthur Holmwood, Quincey Morris, and Jack Seward Jonathan Harker, the last member of their group, is left out of the Hellsing version of the story were able to defeat Count Dracula and killed those who served him. Instead of finishing Dracula, Van Helsing captured him and successfully tamed him into his family servant using the combination of science and magic.

He now goes by a new name, Alucard, as given to him by Arthur Hellsing, Integra's father. Alucard, along with a year-old Walter C. Dornez , is sent on a mission to Warsaw, Poland, to stop Millennium 's vampire production program. According to Sir Hugh Irons, Arthur Hellsing came to believe that Alucard was "too powerful a drug to be used as more than the occasional medicine".

Shortly after Aruthur Helsing's death in , Alucard was awakened and resuscitated by his daughter Integra's blood after she came to his cell and her shoulder was clipped by a bullet. Alucard then blocked and shredded a bullet Richard shot at Integra, allowing Integra the opportunity to kill her uncle.

She killed Richard and became the head of the Hellsing Organization, and Alucard became her most loyal servant. Soon he hears of Millennium 's return and prepares to go to war against them.

He meets Enrico Maxwell in a Museum where Integra has a meeting with him and then was about to fight Anderson if it had not been for Seras. Alucard uses his.

He then later appears alongside Integra and Walter aboard the eagle held by Rip van Winkle and easily kills her, he then laughs maniacally in Volume 5. In Volume 6, Alucard uses the Eagle to transport him back to London. In Volume 7, he finally returns to England to fight against Millennium and the Vatican special forces.

Alucard, in his Vlad Dracula form, looks over and greets Integra and Seras, however, Anderson attacks Alucard in a sword duel. Anderson and Alucard engaged in a staredown and Anderson uses Helena's Nail.

Alucard knows what it is and what it does, he begs Anderson not to become a monster like him, but Anderson still used it on his heart causing him to become a Creature of Thorns and vines called a monster of God by Alucard. Later, they contiuned fighting and then Anderson used his new powers to stab Alucard and burn all his familiars. In Volume 9, Alucard was about to be defeated, but Seras intervened and awakened him, Alucard then rams into Anderson's heart and removes it, along with destroying the nail.

Anderson gave words of pity to Alucard before he dies. Then Walter as a Vampire jumps from the air and crushes Anderson's remains, followed by killing Yumie. Alucard and the others were shocked to see Walter betraying Hellsing and Integra orders Alucard to kill Walter.

Alucard and Walter begin their Battle, Walter seemed to have the upper hand and Alucard's gun the Jackel was revealed to be made by Millennium as The Doctor uses his remote to destroy it. Alucard summons his last familiar, Luke Valentine and Walter using his wires to control him but his transformation was failing. Walter thought he killed Alucard but actually killed Luke and Walter became so young he reverted back to his 14 year old self from the Dawn and Alucard punches him from behind this time reverting to his female form from the Dawn.

Alucard is figuring out why Walter has turned traitor, saying that his desire to kill Alucard consumed him. Alucard them absorbs all the blood from the city.

The Major claims that Alucard has lost. Integra orders Alucard not to disappear but Alcuard closes his eyes and bids farewell. As he is immortal and invincible, Alucard is very cocky, arrogant, and egotistical. He freely taunts and belittles his opponents, often allowing them to inflict seemingly fatal wounds before healing himself and obliterating his enemy.

One of his favorite methods is allowing himself to literally be shot to pieces before simply flowing back together. It could accurately be said that rather than killing his opponents, Alucard breaks them. An example can be seen in Volume 2 when Alucard fights Luke Valentine. When Luke gains an advantage over Alucard, victory seems within his grasp. The tides turn when Alucard transforms a part of himself into a hellhound.

Alucard then shoots off a part of his leg telling him to regenerate them and pick up his gun and fight back. When Luke fails to do so, Alucard devours Luke, declaring him as little more than dog food. However, even as an invincible vampire, Alucard can be taken by surprise, usually because of his arrogance. In his first meeting with Alexander Anderson , he assumed he had easily killed Anderson with a single bullet, but was caught off guard when he regenerated.

Alucard was also expressed deeply disappointed that Luke was not a more worthy adversary. In the anime, he seemed concerned with finding a worthy opponent; in the manga, however, it is revealed that he wishes to find an opponent, a human opponent, whom he can let defeat him. However, underneath his arrogance, Alucard seems to be deeply sad and envious of humans.

Over the course of his existence, Alucard has come to realize that life needs death to make it precious. Alucard chose to become a monster to obtain power and escape death, and he regrets it.

All of these feelings are shown at various points throughout the series, such as when Alucard tells the Queen that she is "that same saucy filly from 50 years ago", and that she is "truly beautiful now". He becomes infuriated as Anderson stabs himself in the heart with the Helena's Nail in Volume 8 because Anderson is making the same mistake that Alucard made , and when Alucard says that Walter's old, aged body was "a trillion times more beautiful" than his new, vampiric body in Chapter His desire for a worthy opponent may be connected to his regret, as well; it could be interpreted as a desire to finally die.

However, it's important to know that he does not want to die by a monster's hand, but rather a human's hand, due to him viewing monsters as weak creatures and humans as strong beings.

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. Such early hints include his anagrammatic name Alucard is Dracula, reversed , the title of the series and the name of Integra's family, and the impalement of the GATE officers in Volume 3. From there, the hints become much less vague, and his identity as the fictional Count Dracula is brought to light. In Volume 4, Alucard is dreaming and recalls his defeat at the hands of Abraham van Hellsing, which marked the beginning of his servitude to the Hellsing family.

In Volume 8, his full identity is made plain when Integra places his control level at zero and greets him with, "Welcome back, Count. These include his own Wallachian army, peasantry, Turkish Janissaries, war horses, and others. Throughout his battle with Anderson, Alucard frequently compares his rival to the man who defeated him years ago - Abraham van Hellsing. Most of these revelations are not present in Gonzo's TV series. There are few obvious references to the character of Count Dracula.

Also in the last few minutes of the anime's last episode Incognito is impaled. Additionally, upon Incognito's defeat, a close-up is seen of Alucard with half his face shrouded in shadow. The bullet grazed her arm and the blood from her injury fell onto the corpse, awakening Alucard. He kills all the men in the room and severs Richard's arm before pledging his allegiance to his new master.

After protecting her from Richard's final attempt to kill her, Alucard allows Integra to kill her uncle herself. In the television series, Alucard offered Integra to be a vampire shortly after his awakening, but only when she bravely defied him did he consider her worthy of his respect and servitude and fit to be the head of the Hellsing family. Alucard claimed that Integra "Hasn't changed, she is still so childish Over the years, Alucard and Walter help her grow and mature into the leader and master she becomes.

As such, Integra is the only person whom Alucard will obey. Integra is also one of few people whose life and honor Alucard will bother to openly protect. In Episode 9 Red Rose Vertigo of the television series, Alucard is moved to shock and rage when Incognito implies that Integra has been killed.

Rather than stay and fight, Alucard makes a hasty return to the Hellsing manor to kill Laura before she could turn Integra into a ghoul.

Alucard and Walter are old and close friends, almost like brothers. However, when Walter betrayed Hellsing, Alucard began to see him as a mere plaything, even going so far as to call Walter's younger vampiric body ugly and state that his elderly human body was "a thousand times more beautiful". Upon his return from Rio de Janeiro, they speak to each other as old friends.

Alucard sees her as the "same spirited young woman he met fifty years ago," and that to his eyes, "time had made her even more beautiful. Anderson and Alucard have an intense and fiercely competitive rivalry that borders on kinship; their remarkable similarities and nature as polar opposites fuel both their intellectual and physical combat.

The relationship between the two grows as the series goes on. The two almost seem to live so that they can fight each other. When Anderson turns into a monster towards the end of the season and is defeated by Alucard, Alucard cries. The sense of respect between the two is most apparent when Anderson tells Alucard not to cry and points out that he Alucard became a monster so that he no longer had to cry.

Unlike many other enemies, Anderson is the only opponent that Alucard has ever shown respect for in battle, and even states he would have let Anderson kill him when he had the chance as a human.

Not much is known about Alucard's interactions with The Major before the series, but the two hold a great deal of hatred for each other. The Major explains that his reason for hating Alucard is because he is "a monster with the trappings of a man", and The Major is "a man with the trappings of a monster". The Major also holds this grudge most likely stemming from Alucard's and Walter's attack on Millennium's headquarters during WWII and has vowed to exact revenge ever since.

Alucard, in some strange sense, seems to almost feel a sense of joy upon the return of the Major and the Millennium Organization, which is evidenced by him stating: "Excellent. I can't wait to destroy you again! Alucard seems to think of himself and The Major as "incorrigible warmongers" and the lust for battle never being enough for them.

It could be possible that The Major reminds Alucard of his former life as Vlad the Impaler, and because of this, Alucard seeks to destroy him once and for all. During the first fight between him and Luke, he was at first very impressed by Luke's abilities and comments his reflexes are amazing. Due to the fact that Alucard rarely praises his opponents, this could be considered a form of respect, similar to how he praised Alexander Anderson. While the battle goes on, Alucard asks for Luke's name again; he states the battle was the most fun he had in ages, and remarks that his skills are above that of even the most powerful vampires.

Once he transforms, however, and impatiently waits for Luke to regenerate his legs, he realizes that Luke is nothing but a spineless coward who ran away in terror when faced with an opponent more powerful than him. After Luke is eaten by the Baskerville, Alucard says he was nothing but dog shit. When Luke was used by Walter against Alucard, he once again praises Luke for his skills and states that his talents were wasted being inside Baskerville, implying that Alucard regretted not making Luke into a familiar instead of letting him rot inside of Baskerville.

Alucard also states that dog shit would do in a pinch, after successfully fooling Walter into attacking his double which was Luke's body. The following are Alucard's powers gained from both his being a Vampire and due to several years of research by the Hellsing Organization. Alucard is an extremely formidable and deadly opponent who can cut down most supernatural enemies without releasing the seals that contain his true power.

However, the ghoul army formed by the devoured souls in Alucard may be one of these alterations. Dracula didn't use this ability against Prof. Van Helsing and his crew according to the flashbacks in the manga and of course according to Bram Stoker's novel, which is a base of Hellsing.

In addition, Van Helsing admitted that they had destroyed all of the vampire's servants which means these servants can't re-appear in It is possible that through occult, the Hellsing family managed to unlock Alucard's ability and allowed him full access to all the souls he had consumed, and made it possible to release them on the battlefield in Control Art Restriction System Level Zero.

Also, the Major seemed to know much about Alucard's release states. It's possible that Alucard may not have had these abilities while Dracula, but naturally got them later on, without Hellsing's interference, as Alucard expected Luke to summon his familiars during their battle.

This contradicts the conjecture that this is exclusive to Alucard, however, it is yet to be revealed in the ongoing Dawn-series whether these assumptions are true or not. 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 intimidating, high powered semi-automatic handguns named the.

The ammunition for Alucard's Casull and Jackal appear to be high impact, hollow point rounds, giving them even more stopping power. Being too powerful to be left on his own, his power is restricted by the "Control Art Restriction System" and has to be accessed by the "Cromwell Invocation". There are shown to be six levels of restriction and six corresponding states, with lower numbers meaning greater levels of power.

He can often be heard stating what level he is releasing immediately prior to combat "Releasing control art restriction to level two". This is, perhaps, a requirement of the release mechanism, but this has never been confirmed and is likely a literary device.

Another possible reason is that it is to unnerve his opponents as he goes into battle. Given what has been seen of his personality, this is quite likely.

Alucard can release his power up to Level One by himself, but he needs his master's approval to release his final state - Level Zero, the lowest level, allowing him full access to his most devastating powers. It is noticeable that Alucard's attire sometimes changes according to how much power he is using: as he charges up to engage in battle, first his sunglasses, then his fedora will disappear; in the manga he also removes his arms from the sleeves of his coat letting it simply just hang on his shoulders like a cloak whilst he fires from underneath it.

It has been posited that these articles of clothing are direct physical manifestations of whatever system Hellsing uses to control Alucard, with his leather straight jacket representing his true nature. However, in Hellsing OVA II, in the flashback scene where Alucard recalls being beaten by Abraham Van Hellsing, Alucard is still seen wearing these gloves, despite the fact that he was not yet under their control. This is a continuity error, because when compared to the panel from the manga, it shows normal white gloves.

In this form he appeared as his former, year-old self with a thick beard and mustache. He also wore heavy medieval armor with a huge tattered cloak and carried a long sword. However, he quickly returned to his normal form when confronted by Anderson. The enormous army surrounding him in this state, along with the souls of every single person he has ever drank the blood of, accompanies this form as well.

Some fans claim that his "girly form" is the Hellsing family doing. However, in Hellsing: The Dawn, chapter 4, Walter questioned Alucard's girly form and asked if he is still half asleep, in which Alucard answered "I can change my shape into anything.

The particular form I take Also in volume 9, Alucard also admits in his 'Girlycard' form that "There's never any meaning in the form that I take". Alucard's different shapes from top to bottom: as a young girl Girlycard , in his usual vampiric form Count , and in his human form as Vlad III Dracula the Impaler. The only real difference between each form is the preferred method of fighting; in "Girlycard" form he uses a tommygun, in "Count" form he uses his dual pistols, in "Nosferatu, the no-life king" form he uses his hands and shadows to fight, and in "Dracula" form he primarily uses his Claymore sword.

To sum it up, the release states are not just the markers of Alucard's growing powers, they also have an effect on his appearance and fighting methods as well. Up to level 1, Alucard usually takes his "Count-form", even with his new personality, he still takes the form he once had as Count Dracula.

It can be assumed that the vampire sees this form as the one which is fitting his monstrous being the most. In this state, he usually fights with his guns, using his bare hands only against human targets or to finish off his vampire victims, often by impaling them. This form is sometimes called "Nosferatu" or "the no-life king" as noted during his final battle with Anderson. This form seems to possess the most raw physical power when it comes to fighting hand to hand, as shown when he used it against Luke Valentine implying that he was a very powerful opponent , Tubalcain Alhambra whose powers amused Alucard , Alexander Anderson when the priest was reinforced with Helena's Nail and the vampirized Walter.

In this form, the vampire seems to prefer fighting with hand-to-hand combat, however, he can also use firearms.

It is only in Alucard's level one and level zero states that he uses Baskerville. In Ultimate's eighth episode, Sir Integra issues the command "Release control art restriction zero.

Alucard remains at release-state zero for his final fights with Alexander Anderson and vampirized Walter Dornez. In release-state zero, Alucard appears, at different times, in all forms seen throughout the anime to that point. In the final minutes of his fight against vampire Walter Dornez, Alucard adopts his "Girlycard" form to mock Walter's age-regression. Such early hints include his anagrammatic name Alucard is Dracula, reversed , the title of the series and the name of Integra's family, and the impalement of the GATE officers in volume 3.

From there, the hints become much less vague, and his identity as the fictional Count Dracula is brought to light. In volume 4, a dreaming Alucard recalls his defeat at the hands of Abraham van Hellsing, which marked the beginning of his servitude to the Hellsing family. In volume 7, the narration alludes to the Count's arrival in London aboard the Demeter, from Bram Stoker's novel Dracula. In volume 8, his full identity is made plain when Integra places his control level at zero and greets him with, "Welcome back, Count.

These include his own Wallachian army, his slaughtered peasantry, the Turkish Janissary, war horses, and countless others. Throughout his battle with Anderson, Alucard frequently compares his rival to the man who defeated him a hundred years ago - Abraham van Hellsing. Most of these revelations are not present in Gonzo's TV series.

There are few obvious references to the character of Count Dracula. Also in the last few minutes of the anime's last episode Incognito is impaled. Additionally, upon Incognito's defeat, a close-up is seen of Alucard with half his face shrouded in shadow. When lightning flashes, the other half of his face is revealed to be that of the Impaler.

His most well known way of execution was impalement. For torturing people by impalement, it is alleged that his executioners learned how to have the victims placed so that the pikes, spears, or other shafts on which they had them impaled would pass most or all of the victim's vital organs, entering their lower nether regions and exiting near the back of their neck.

In this way, the victims could be kept alive for days on end before they finally bled to death. When simply executing a person, they were typically impaled straight through the center of their torso, with the shaft entering their groin and exiting through the mouth.

This is paralleled by one of the end scenes from the final episode of the TV anime, where Alucard leaves Incognito's corpse, impaled from groin to mouth, hanging from the top of the tower. Vlad was also known for his deeds as the"Voivode of Wallachia, particularly the fact that any criminal, thief etc. When the Ottoman army attempted to invade Wallachia in the mid 15th century, they encountered several thousand impaled and rotting corpses staked on the banks of the Danube River.

Historical records state that the Ottoman emperor saw his forces return shortly after, many of them sobbing and ranting that whoever had slaughtered all those people had to be the Devil. Perhaps the best-known incident regarding Vlad's mean of execution was the way by which he prevented the Ottoman Army from invading Wallachia again following the fall of Constantinople in Mehmed II, the leader of the Ottomans who was well-known himself for his use of psychological warfare , was sickened by the sight of the corpses outside the Wallachian capital and ordered his forces back to Constantinople.
