Luke Valentine

Luke Valentine, with his brother Jan, is a vampire and minor antagonist in the beginning of the Hellsing series. His Seiyū is Takehito Koyasu while he is voiced by Patrick Seitz in the English Dub.

Appearance
Luke has pale skin, long blonde hair tied with a white ribbon at the end and green eyes. He wears silver pince-nez glasses and the same military jacket as his brother Jan, with a different design- Luke's is white with gold lining. His jacket is black with white lining in the manga. He also wears white suit pants, white gloves, a white suit jacket over his jacket; in the OVA, he adds a white overcoat draped over his shoulders. He later loses this overcoat when infiltrating the Hellsing mansion and is caught in the building's spear-trap.

Plot
Luke likes to fancy himself as the one who will bring about Alucard's demise, believing that because of his relatively advanced powers that he was destined to surpass Alucard in every way. He believes that he has more than Alucard's powers at his own disposal, and believes Alucard to be just another artificial vampire like himself. He soon finds that this is far from the truth, being soundly beaten by Alucard, who pleads with Luke to call upon more powerful vampiric abilities (having already been impressed by Luke's speed and reflexes) but is disappointed to find Luke can't even heal his severed legs. After calling Alucard a "monster", and saying he is nothing more than a "dog" of the church, Luke is devoured by Alucard's hellhound. Alucard quips that in life (as a vampire), Luke was useless and pathetic, and now (if Alucard is a dog) he is simply "dog food." Later during Alucard's final battle with Walter, Alucard summons Luke as a familiar. Walter uses his wires to sever Alucard's arms and legs, to cut his torso in half, and to suspend him helplessly in the air. He then grabs a metal bar and attacks Alucard, impaling him through the chest. The Alucard that Walter attacked, however, was a decoy, created by Alucard using Luke's remains, allowing him to shapeshift and sneak up behind Walter. Luke is now believed to be dead for good.

In chapter 78, Finesthour (3), Luke emerges from the remains of Alucard's hellhound "Baskerville", after Walter slices it in two and is very disgusted by the events surrounding him. In chapter 79, Walter, using his wires like puppet strings, gains control of both Luke and Alucard's Hellhound, and uses them to attack Alucard. Alucard makes short work of them. In chapter 80, Walter uses his wires to sever Alucard's arms and legs, to cut his torso in half, and to suspend him helplessly in the air. He then grabs a piece of rebar and attacks Alucard, impaling him through the chest. The Alucard that Walter attacked, however, was a decoy, created by Alucard using Luke's remains, allowing him to shapeshift and sneak up behind Walter. Luke is now believed to be dead for good.

When Luke meets Alucard in the sub-levels, Luke seems to be quite condescending to Alucard in the beginning, but frightend towards the end with Alucard kills him. Luke claims that he will prove that immortality is a myth, once he has Alucard's head on a stick in the Hellsing OVA II. After Alucard tore off Luke's legs, Luke refers to Alucard as the dog of the Church of England. Alucard goes back to that comment while belittling what is left of Luke. "As a vampire you were shit. Now your nothing but dog shit."

Jan Valentine
Given how short their time on-screen togethr was, it's hard to say exactly how well the two actually get along. Obviously, Jan is very comfortable talking with Luke, chatting the entire way to the Hellsing Mansion. Luke, however, didn't seem to pleased with the conversation. Luke seems somewhat short with Jan, usually telling him to shut up when he starts rambling.
