- Alucard to Anderson ""

Alucard (アーカード) is a powerful vampire and is the deuteragonist of the Hellsing anime series.

He is the most powerful weapon of the Hellsing Organization working against other vampires and other such supernatural forces. Alucard is no mere vampire; it has been implied that he is one of the most powerful vampires (besides Incognito), as well as the most powerful entity in the entire series. In the English dub of both series, he is voiced by Crispin Freeman. He was responsible for saving Seras Victoria's life by turning her into a vampire at The Cheddar Village Chapel, rescuing her from the Cheddar Priest.

He is also Seras' master due to her refusal to drink blood and free herself much to his annoyance.

Appearance
Alucard has eyes which are blood red in color, and they glow a brighter hue of red when angry. His hair length changes according to his release states from short to knee length. It appears that his clothing is part of his physical form due to the fact that when he regenerates, his clothing also repairs itself. As a vampire he possesses enhanced shapeshifting abilities, allowing him to change his shape.


 * His usual outfit is comprised mainly in a classic Victorian fashion, including a charcoal suit, leather riding boots, and a intricately knotted red cravat, covered by a full-length, red frock overcoat (similar to the duster coats often associated with cowboys) with cape. He also wears a red fedora with a wide, floppy brim and a pair of circular, heavily tinted, wire-framed orange sunglasses with goggle sidings. Alucard's gloves have five-pointed seals on them which limit the personal use of his powers.



Level 1

 * He wears his leather coat/straightjacket seen right before Integra released the vampire from his captivity in the dungeon of Hellsing HQ, but it's color is changed to red instead of it being black.

Flashback

 * During Integra's flashback, he wears a black straightjacket that kept his arms right behind his back, his hair was white probably due to his body drying up from the lack of blood or even as a stressful reaction to his imprisonment.

Personality
Alucard fights with ferocity and often-extreme cruelty, rarely shooting to kill until his target has been totally disabled and humiliated. As he is essentially immortal and invincible, Alucard is very egotistical as well. 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 be blown to shreds before simply flowing back together. It can accurately be stated that rather than killing his opponents, Alucard breaks them. However, he has a kind and caring side and a sense of morality as he acts as a father figure for Seras Victoria. He also becomes deeply disgusted by the vampires he hunts, as not only are they pathetic to him but they cause destruction, chaos, and are cruel towards humans, meaning that he still retains sense of humanity despite being an undead monster.

However, even as an invincible vampire, even Alucard can be stunned because of his arrogance. In his first meeting with Alexander Anderson, he assumed he had easily killed Anderson with a single shot to the forehead. It was not until Anderson stood up and took him by surprise, impaling him with multiple blessed bayonets, that Alucard learned Anderson was a human regenerator. When Alucard was fighting Incognito he states that he finally found a suitable creature to battle. Meaning that he was concerned with finding a worthy opponent.

Alucard has expressed extreme disgust with the vampires he has been hunting for the last 100 years, especially when they kill without purpose. Alucard makes his discontent apparent, demanding to know the motivation behind their rampage.

Despite his disgust for homicidal vampires, he is not entirely against immortality. He happily gave Seras immortality (despite his self-reflection) due to her indomitable will and courage, for continuing to fight against the monsters in Cheddar and not giving up even when she was about to die. He even asks Integra if she wants to become a vampire or not. In the last episode, He offers Integra his blood.

Before the Events of Hellsing: Impure Souls
Immediately after Arthur’s death, Richard Hellsing, jealous of Integra for inheriting the family headship, attempted to hunt her down and kill her.

Hoping to find a knight, she stumbled across an old, dried-out corpse instead. Richard found her, cornered her, and shot her in her shoulder, spilling her blood across the floor of the room. The corpse, who ended up being a vampire whom Arthur had imprisoned 20 years earlier, awoke and licked up Integra's blood. Rejuvenated, it proceeded to kill her persecutors, thus saving her. Richard desperately attempted to kill Integra one last time, but the vampire blocked his bullet.

Seras Victoria
Seras Victoria is Alucard's first fledgling since Mina Harker. Alucard holds deep feelings of admiration towards his fledgling, Seras. Alucard seems to be more gentle and understanding compared to his OVA counterpart who is more harsh and Seras seems to be more serious compared to her OVA counterpart. Alucard seems to be rather patient and accepting of Seras' refusal to drink blood. Alucard takes on a role of a mentor and teacher to help Seras reach her full potential. As Seras lost her parents at a young age, her fondness and love for Alucard could be similar to a daughter's love for her father. While he is frustrated with her refusal to drink blood at first, he was always confident that eventually she would drink blood.

He mentions Seras' decision as an answer to Integra scolding him on taking a fledgling. He states that she is incomprehensible, along with humans. Seras appears to be extremely loyal to him, disobeying his order to draw back as to help him against Incognito.

In Order 07, after Alucard shoots both of Alexanders arms while questoning him if hes a dog, a human or a monster and Alexander leaves while saying that he will defeat Alucard, Alucard says that Alexander will never defeat him, cause he's not a man or a monster, and is, therefore, incapable of killing him, only a human can do that. However, He says that he's fun to fight with.

Integra Hellsing
Alucard is extremely devoted to Integra Hellsing, his current master and the Hellsing Organization's leader. In all versions of Hellsing, Alucard and Integra share a complex but strict "master and servant" relationship. Integra has been connected to him since her father's death. Arthur Hellsing named her the new head of the Hellsing Organization, a decision that drove her jealous uncle to try and kill her. Using the air ducts, Integra snuck into the dungeons of the Hellsing estate's sub-levels (recalling that her father said she would find her "salvation" there, should she find herself in the face of death at the hands of her enemies) and found Alucard's corpse (Hellsing's "greatest legacy" according to Arthur) in one of the rooms. Shortly upon discovering him, Richard finds her and shoots her. 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. 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..." Even so, he describes her as his "beloved master", showing his undying loyalty to her. 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.

Arthur Hellsing
Arthur Hellsing was Alucard's previous master before Integra Hellsing. Nothing is known about their relationship, although it's possible that Alucard respected him. For instance, in the in Episode 10, when a young Integra stands up to Alucard after he tries to intimidate her, he proclaims "You ARE your father's daughter!", and then proceeds to bow to her, and apologizes for his disrespect.

Luke Valentine
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 walks away in disappointment.

Overview
Alucard is the original vampire, Count Dracula, and Hellsing's trump card. He is a sadistic monster who consumed thousands of his enemies and subjects, using their life to supplant his own. While most vampires have some degree of regenerative ability, Alucard's is on another level. He demonstrates a number of unique abilities as well as the ability to regenerate from virtually any injury. Alucard is an extremely formidable and deadly opponent who can cut down most supernatural enemies without releasing the seals that contain his true power. He some times lets his opponent damage him, then regenerate as a way to taunt them. He is a very deadly opponent, he's not someone to be messed with.

As a true vampire, Alucard is inherently strong. To start,


 * his guns Jackal and Casull are far too unwieldy for a human to hold, let alone use, but he does both with ease.
 * He has been seen going up barehanded against even some supernatural weapons and destroying them.
 * He was shown fight several Soldiers, wearing heavy armor. But, Despite their armor, Alucard was able to disembowel and tear apart several Soldiers with one hand.

Level One

 * Was able to hold Sett's mouth.

Superhuman Speed and Reflexes:

 * Alucard is too fast for the human eye to follow.
 * Alucard's reaction times are top-notch, he stopped a bullet from hitting Integra.
 * It also safe to assume that same as strength his reflexes and speed becomes more potent in other forms.

Enhanced Endurance:

 * Alucard takes most damage without flinching or making a sound, quietly allowing the enemy to attack before retaliating tenfold.
 * He can even attack after being torn asunder by bullets.

Enhanced Durability:

 * He got shot in the head by Luke's gun, laughs it off.
 * Shoulder get's shot by Seras's pistol, laughs it off.
 * Torso got blown by Incognito's Grenade Launcher, doesn't care.
 * Alucard appears to have the ability to harden the surface of his body to the point where he was able to survive while being slashed by Incognito's magic.

Level One

 * Was able to survive Sett's blast, taunts Incognito in the process.

Abilities

 * Regeneration: Alucard has the ability to perfectly and quickly recover from any physical injury. He has been torn to shreds by conventional weaponry and holy weaponry designed to kill his kind and has survived all of it. Holy weapons, while they do affect him more, are regenerated all the same if not as quickly.
 * Extrasensory Perception: Alucard has senses that are not only sharper than a mortal's, affording him abilities such as perfect accuracy, but he has abilities that they completely lack. In particular he possesses a 'third-eye' which allows him to see things from far, far distances. Though he never uses it to do so, he can likely see through things that fool human eyes.
 * Dark Composition: Though he generally dons a corporeal, humanoid form, Alucard is made up of a highly variable otherworldly substance that is black in core and reddish on its edges. This can be especially seen whenever he takes heavy damage, the darkness being immune to conventional weaponry. Along with composing his being, it can serve as a weapon. Alucard is able to transform this material into virtually anything he chooses, like a puddle of goo.
 * Intangibility: Alucard has the ability to walk through solid objects, such as walls.
 * Immortality: It is unclear if Alucard is a true immortal, but he is at least biologically immortal, immune to disease and aging. Alucard has suffered all manner of injury to the most extreme degrees, only to reform himself. This seems to indicate structural immortality as well, but the vampire himself asserts that there is no such thing as a true immortal.
 * Hematophagy: As a vampire, Alucard has the ability to consume blood raw. He has long, conical fangs to assist in this job as well as serpentine-like tongue. His feeding habits have been seen to vary: from the traditional neck-biting to simply ripping people to pieces and outright devouring them. Alucard doesn't seem to need blood to survive, however if starved of of it, he will enter an inactive death-like state.
 * Aestivation: Alucard will enter a dormant state if he goes too long without blood. It is unknown if he can be starved to death, as he goes decades without a drop of blood before a young Integra finds him. It is never made clear if this is unique to him or if all vampires can do this.
 * Hemokinesis: Alucard has the ability to manipulate blood . This ability seems to be limited to blood outside of the body, as he is never seen influencing the blood of enemies while they are intact.
 * Soul Absorption: By draining a person of their blood, Alucard gains dominance over their souls and very forms. He also takes on whatever knowledge they possess.
 * Familiar Control: Alucard can summon forth anyone he's taking the soul of at will.. He has an entire legion dwelling within him but seems to favor using Baskerville, the Black Dog. Whoever he absorbs, their powers are at his disposal. Alucard seems content to completely dominate everything living inside him. It is unclear if this is due to their individual wills or a lack of experience on Seras' part.
 * Shapeshifting: Though form is of no particular importance to him, Alucard claims to be able to change into anything. He has changed into a child, several bats, an amorphous darkness, has several "default" forms, and can assume the form of a hellhound. It is unknown if he can take the shape of inanimate objects such as tables or chairs.
 * Mist Body: Alucard is capable of turning his body into some sort of dark reddish mist in order to render attacks against him useless.
 * Telepathy: Alucard is able to communicate telepathically with his fledgling, Seras. The telepathy doesn't seem to have a maximum range. He can also read the thoughts of others, if he wishes.
 * Teleportation: Alucard is able to vanish and reappear at a different location. The range in which he can teleport is unknown.
 * Daywalking: Other vampires operate in the dark, because of a presumed weakness to light. Alucard however seems to have no problem with sunlight, only complaining that being up during the day is exhausting.
 * Hypnosis: Alucard has the ability to control minds, doing so on exclusively with Humans. The afflicted human will enter a euphoric, stupor-like state and their eyes will glow red. They will be pliant to all of Alucard's designs, doing and speaking as he wills. This hypnotic link is established through direct eye-contact and does not waver, even when Alucard's attention is elsewhere.
 * Gravity Defiance: Alucard is seen flying while fighting Incognito in the last Order of Hellsing.
 * Supernatural Detection: he could see the blessings on Father Anderson's bayonets as well as the holy barrier preventing their escape, he also sensed Incognito's presence in Order 8.
 * Telekinesis: Alucard showed said ability when he was able to move Jackal's case from Seras's hand.


 * Hibernation: Alucard is able to survive long periods of time without consuming blood, but is able to fight at a usual level of strength after drinking even the smallest amount of blood.
 * Weather Control: The ability to control the weather to an unknown limit, as demonstrated by the fog created when he returned to Hellsing HQ.

Release States
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 Two by himself.

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. His gloves, which are engraved with the Hellsing seal (a pentacle decorated with occult symbols and several mottoes, reading: "Hell's Gate Arrested / Gott Mit Uns / And Shine Heaven Now") are also thought to be part of this mechanism and the source of Hellsing's control over him (Alucard's distinctive gloves are visible in the vast majority of his transformations, even when Alucard himself is not in a humanoid form).

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 takes his "Count-form". In his level one form, he wears the Red one instead of the Black leather coat/straightjacket seen right before Integra released the vampire from his captivity in the dungeon of Hellsing HQ. 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), Incognito (whose powers match with Alucard) In this form, the vampire seems to prefer fighting with hand-to-hand combat. In this version, he can use Baskerville while in his "Count form", an example of this is when he fought Luke Valentine.

It is clear that Integra herself is in control of Alucard's release states as she was seen giving him permission to release to level one, the state where he is in a red version of the black straightjacket-like garb he is shown in when Integra finds him in her youth.

Hellsing ARMS .454 Casull Auto
The Casull is a semi-automatic magnum pistol, based on two pre-WW1 handgun designs by Colt: the M1903 and M1905 pistols (the early versions of the M1911). The gun weighs approximately 6 kg unloaded and has a magazine capacity of six .454 Casull cartridges. Its appearance is also similar to the AMT Automag III. The overall design of the Casull is simple, using the Browning short recoil mechanism. Its most recognizable feature is its long slide, counteracting the weapon's heavy recoil with its weight. The barrel is 10 inches long (specified on the slide) and finished with titanium nitride which gives it a characteristic gold color. The Casull is able to kill normal vampires with only 1 shot. It is too heavy and unwieldy for a human to use, yet a perfect match for Alucard's strength.


 * Caliber: 454 Casull Magnum
 * Total length: 335mm
 * Weight: 4kg
 * Magazine: 14+1 rounds since highcap magazine (The magazine is the same size as the Jackal, so the magazine probably only holds 6 rounds.)

The Jackal
The Jackal is a massive pistol made especially for Alucard, and one of the most powerful handheld weapons in the Hellsing series. It has a length of 39cm (16 in), a weight of 16kg (35lbs), and a black gunmetal construction, and uses massive 13mm explosive rounds. The words "Jesus Christ is in Heaven now"  are engraved upon it, in mockery of a similar statement on Alexander Anderson's gloves.

Identity
In the Final Order of the Hellsing anime, Alucard refers to his name as being "a bit of an enigma" when speaking to Incognito before they fight. There are few obvious references to the character of Count Dracula. Also in the last few minutes of the anime's Last Order Incognito is impaled. Impaling his enemies was common practice for Vlad III The Impaler (Vlad Ţepeş, also known as Dracula). 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. Historically, Vlad Ţepeş was responsible for the deaths of between 40,000 and 100,000 of his enemies and various villains in his own country during his reign as the monarch of Wallachia (a major portion of what is now present-day Romania). 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. would be punished severely. 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 1462. Reports show that he had 20,000 captured turkish soldiers and convicted criminals impaled and staked out on the borders of his capital city, Târgoviște. 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.
