Disposition:

CURIOUS - Though aristocratic, even dramatic and definitely a supernatural creature himself, Alucard also has a respect and comprehension of sciences that definitely aren't popular or understood during his time period. Not unlike his mother, Alucard has a natural curiosity towards these things, knowing that there is so much of the world left to learn and discover, especially with mechanisms, medicine, and engineering. In the case of the game's setting, he'll be fascinated by the technology and culture of the game itself as well as the people he encounters. Due to the fact that he was raised by a scientist and a doctor respectively, Alucard will adapt quickly to unusual and unexpected technologies as a result, so he has that going for him.

DESPONDENT - As a being of two very different worlds, Alucard is a man set with complicated feelings and worldviews, always half and never quite belonging to either due to both how he was raised, what he has lost, and because of what he is. Most of this can be contributed to the difficult history of his mother and father, a human woman who was a doctor and the latter being a powerful vampire with little love for most of humanity except distinctly his human wife and chosen few. Alucard is never quite human enough or never quite vampire enough, and in addition it seems his closest bonds in his childhood after with his parents. After the deaths of both Lisa and Dracula, as well as two of his human friends leaving shortly after, Alucard is desperately lonely.

BITTER - And of course when you're lonely as hell, you're desperate for company. When two new human hunters arrived to Alucard and his castle, he took to them quickly, not knowing that they had any ill intent toward him. After having been seduced by both humans, they planned to kill him and take the castle for themselves. Though Alucard pleaded with them, it did not deter them, and he was forced to kill them both to protect himself. This experience as well as having witnessed what was done to his mother has made Alucard swiftly angry, bitter, and secluded, as well as suspicious of others initially.

EMPATHETIC - However, he is not a man without his sense of nobility and empathy. Despite everything he has endured, Alucard cannot resist his better nature, which is to help others. Even after the previously mentioned two hunters that nearly killed him, Alucard still isn't able to ignore a call for his help for a vulnerable human village a distance away from him. Although he doesn't particularly put in the effort to hide his hurt, he also can barely resist helping someone else if they genuinely need help, even if he might end up bitching about it.

Suitability: Due to his upbringing by parents who were scientists, scholars, doctors, and all of that other good science bullshit, Alucard has an interesting approach to the whole scifi setting ordeal. He has no qualms about mixing magic and science, but also understanding the difference between the two. Although he'll certainly need time to really comprehend a microwave, his innate curiosity and ability to engineer and construct things on his own make it easy enough for him in comparison to some others to lead into an understanding. In addition, he is a being who already regularly shapeshifts, but he will find it disconcerting when he cannot control the gems causing his form to shift. He may be able to deal with it better than most, but since he can't control it himself, he will be less than thrilled with the prospect. The biggest hurdle that he'll encounter is the concept of Synchrony; due to his previous traumas, he will be very reluctant to allow himself to Synchronize, and will need to learn to adapt in order to both survive and keep his abilities in top shape. In time, he will develop, but it will certainly be no easy task for him to become open to this.

Condition upon arrival: CRIPPLING DEPRESSION.

Abilities:
DHAMPIR ABILITIES
- Enhanced Strength. Alucard is stronger than the common human, enough that he can easily wield a ridiculously long sword one-handed against a skilled hunter's full strength. He can't arm wrestle Clark Kent anytime soon, but he'd have a shot at beating someone's mechanical arm.

- Enhanced Senses. Alucard has a keen sense of sight and hearing, but more importantly he can smell very easily, down to the point that he can sniff out blood in people and generally their health. The biggest takeaway from this is that he smell the blood real goodlike.

- Speed. Alucard moves ridiculously fast. He'll phase faster than a typical human, but he can't outrun Barry Allen.

- Durability. A knee to the groin does nothing to Alucard. Also, he's just pretty durable all around and can take quite a beating.

- Shapeshifting. Alucard is able to shapeshift into a wolf and a bat respectively. Sometimes MANY bats.

- Immortality. Alucard does not age, but he can be killed under the right circumstances.

- Self-Healing and Recovery. Most injuries can be recovered fairly quickly in Alucard's case in a matter of seconds, unless he's dealt a violent blow from someone significantly more powerful than him, such as his own father. That would then require a longer period of time and plenty of rest.

- Vampirism. It should go without saying, but as the son of a vampire, Alucard does drink blood, primarily from humans.

- Sword. If his blade is nearby, Alucard can summon it to his person, and is also capable of enchanting it. The sword appears to be impossible to break.

- Float. Alucard is capable of floating a few feet off the ground, but the flight is a bit limited.

- Not With Those Nails Girl. Vampires seem to inherently have stupidly long sharp nails. Alucard can extend his at will and retract them.

Inventory:
- Enchanted sword
- Enchanted cape that lets him flapflap wings and fly
- Shield
- sadness

Gembond: Amethyst
