Alucard
For years, the Belmont family had brought down Lord Dracula and his dark minions every time they were ressurected. However, in the year 1792, the current Belmont, Richter, had gone to the castle Castlevania to destroy Dracula like his ancestors did. Then he suddenly vanished...
5 years later, his sister-in-law, Maria Renard, went looking for Richter, and Castlevania appeared out of no where as if to show her the way.
Meanwhile, a half-human, half-vampire (named Alucard by the locals) was awakening from what was supposed to be an eternal slumber. He had detected his father's dark presence, and the fact that there was no other vampire hunter around to put an end to him brought him to. So Alucard took his sword and shield, and laid seige to Castlevania, in hopes of putting his father to rest, and to avenge what he saw as a terrible thing for his father to do. This thing, of course, delt with Alucard's mother, Lisa.
Lisa was a beautiful young woman, and somehow Dracula, that time Vlad Tepes, had fallen in love with her. She became his mistress, and in no time, Adrian Farenheights Tepes (later to be Alucard) was born. However, after about 10-15 years or so, the local villiagers found out about Lisa's relationship with the Count, and because she sold herbs to help people with illnesses, they thought her to be a witch. Ergo, they burned her at the stake, with Alucard helplessly watching as a young boy.
After that, Dracula took Alucard into his own hands, and raised him, but not properly. Alucard was furious that Dracula didn't show grief for his mother, but didn't do anything to show how he felt himself. Dracula brought out the vamperic half in Alucard, and by the time he was an adult, he too was feasting on blood. However, Alucard soon met up with a Belmont named Trevor (Richter's great-great-great-grandfather), and stopped following in his father's footsteps, and helped the Belmont defeat him. He then went into that slumber, only to be awoken nearly 300 years later to put an end to Dracula himself. Still, what he had done haunted Alucard, and his soul was divided against itself: one side good, one side evil, and it tormented him ever since the day his mother died.
Finally, after nearly three centuries, Alucard met up with his father. When Alucard told Dracula that he wouldn't let him leave Castlevania alive, Dracula frowned and told him that he was unwise for befriending humans, and ignoring his dark half. Intent on killing Alucard's human half, Dracula attacked his own son. Alucard fought back....he had to, and deafeated his father. As Dracula was dying, he asked what were Lisa's last words. Alucard told her this: "She said: 'If you cannot live with humans, then do them no harm, for theirs is already a hard lot.' She also said to tell you that she would love you for all eternity.". Dracula smiled, asked Lisa to forgive him, and told his son farewell before he died.
As Alucard ran through the inverted castle and down through the original Castlevania, it began to disinigrate, not to appear for another century. He managed to get out in the nick of time, and he ran into Richter and Maria. Richter apologized, saying that it was his fault that Alucard had to kill his own father. Alucard explained that he had his own reasons for destroying him, and that Richter shouldn't worry about it.
Maria asked Alucard what his plans were, and Alucard told her that since his bloodline was cursed, it would be best if he disappeared for the rest of his life, and go back to his slumber. Maria, who had obviously fallen in love with Alucard, was crestfallen as Alucard told her and Richter farewell. As Alucard strode off, Richter told Maria to go after him, and perhaps she could save his haunted soul. Maria bade Richter farewell, and ran after Alucard. And perhaps, this could be where another story begins....
Roleplaying Difficulty: Novice
