History
edit
Alucard was born in November 1431 as Vlad III Draculea, son of Vlad II Dracul. He later became known as Vlad Tepes (Vlad the Impaler), and as Kazikli Bey (the Impaler Prince) to the Turks (for a biography, see Vlad III Dracula). He "died" in 1476, at the age of 45. Alucard recalls "that day" 523 years ago in Chapter 71. The circumstances of his death and transformation are shown in the previous chapter (Castlevania), but the details are unknown. In flashbacks, he sees himself as an infant held prisoner by his people's enemies and being abused by his captors. Finally, as an adult again, he is seen in the hands of his enemies seconds away from being executed, at which point he transforms.

Centuries later, in 1897, the events of Bram Stoker's Dracula take place. Jonathan Harker, Abraham Van Helsing, Arthur Holmwood, Quincey Morris, and John Seward were able to defeat Vlad (then known as Count Dracula) and kill all of his servants. In the dream sequence of volume 4, Van Helsing says that Mina Harker was freed from his (the Count's) control, just as in the book. At this point, Hellsing deviates from the novel. The Count was staked, but not destroyed; it is not known for certain whether Dracula was forced into servitude or did so willingly, but from that point on, the Count became the servant of Van Helsing and his descendants.

The next known event in Alucard's life is during World War II, in 1944. Dracula was now known as Alucard, the name given to him by Arthur Hellsing. Alucard and Walter (then 14 years old), were sent to Warsaw, Poland to stop Millennium's vampire production program based on Mina Harker's infection. The results of the mission are unknown. Decades later, in 1970, Alucard is locked in a dungeon in the Hellsing mansion by Integra's father, Arthur. According to Sir Hugh Islands in Chapter 75 (Hear
