BPRD

The Bureau of Paranormal Research and Protection (BPRD) is an organization dedicated to protecting America and the world from the occult, paranormal, and supernatural. He uses the services of several "particularly gifted" people.
History:
The Bureau for the Investigation of Paranormal Phenomena was founded in late 1944 by Professor Trevor Bruttenholm to combat various occult phenomena threats identified during operations against Nazi Germany. Initially, it was closely associated with the United States Air Force and was located at a military air base in New Mexico. By 1947, the Bureau had moved to a purpose-built building in Fairfield, Connecticut. To this day, it is closely associated with various branches of the US armed forces. It is a private organization that receives funding from the governments of several large countries (mainly the United States and Great Britain, although other countries such as Canada, Japan, France and Italy are also mentioned). Professor Bruttenholm served as director until the late 1950s, after which he resigned to return to field work. The current director is Dr. Thomas Manning.
BPRD is a well-known and respected organization that has excellent relations with most international governments and US government agencies, with the exception of China and the CIA.
The BPRD building itself is located far from the city. Only the lobby is located on the ground, and the rest of the building's structure is located underground.

Hellboy – A half-demon born from a woman and a demon, Hellboy was summoned to Earth through a spatial portal on October 9, 1944. Hellboy, who was adopted by Professor Trevor Bruttenholm, is kept a secret from the whole world. For the next sixty years, he works as an agent for the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Protection, occasionally leaving the headquarters under supervision to fight monsters.
Appearance:
Hellboy doesn't age like humans: in 2004, he was about 60 years old, but in terms of physical and mental maturity, he's about 20-30 years old.
His hair, which is thinning on top, is styled in a samurai bun. The vegetation on his face is trimmed in the form of sideburns and goatees.
Demonstrating his demonic origins, Hellboy has red skin, yellow eyes, a tail, cloven hooves, and a pair of horns. He prefers to sharpen his horns with a belt grinder and often expresses displeasure when people stare at his forehead. [1] When the horns grow back, they reach a length of more than 30 cm and bend upwards.
His right hand is a massive stone hand and forearm, the Right Hand of Fate. Mysterious spiral patterns are carved on the brush, which continue on Hellboy's torso.
Powers and abilities
Hellboy is immune to fire.
Hellboy's favorite weapon is the Samaritan, a massive custom—made revolver. He can fire four shots and often uses homemade, specially modified bullets to fight supernatural creatures. Hellboy is also armed with Big Baby, a six-shotgun-like weapon with which he killed the Forest God.
He also wears a brown leather belt, made in 1968 by order of the acting head of the Bureau for the Investigation of Supernatural Crimes, Norbert Riker. There are pouches and rings on the belt for carrying or hanging various amulets and objects. He has a variety of items on his belt, such as sacred relics, horseshoes, and herbs, as well as various grenades and other tools.

Abraham "Abe" Sapien is a member of the BPRD. Abe is a humanoid amphibian man discovered in a Washington, DC, basement in November 1978. Since then, Abe has been working at the Bureau and trying to find out the truth about his origins. In 1978, an amphibian man was found in a coma in a capsule filled with water in a long-abandoned cell under St. Trinian's Hospital. He was discovered by a group of plumbers. Bureau of Paranormal Research and The defense quickly intercepted the creature and gave it the nickname "Abraham Sapien" in honor of a piece of paper attached to its tube: April 14, 1865 — the date of the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln.
Abilities:
Abe is an extremely talented swimmer with a natural passion for water. He can breathe both air and water, but he can stay out of the water for no more than a week; when traveling, he sleeps in hotel baths so that his skin does not dry out. He is sensitive to the condition of the water in which he swims. When he was swimming in Venice, the water was so polluted that he had to spend a long time recovering in his tank.
He is a talented marksman, as well as one of the Bureau's most experienced agents (besides Hellboy and Liz), with decades of experience under his belt.
In addition, he has significantly increased strength and regeneration ability. The question of whether his body can die at all remains open, since both times when he was declared dead, he came back to life. It's also possible that he doesn't age or ages much more slowly than ordinary people, given that he spent 113 years in a tube under a hospital.
Abe Sapien has unique psychic abilities and needs a device to breathe underwater when he leaves it for a long time. He is shown as a rather passive character, and his relationship with Hellboy, who operates on the principle of "kill first, ask questions later", can be called brotherly. In addition, he has a weakness for thousand-year-old (rotten) eggs.

Elizabeth "Liz" Sherman is a female pyrokinetic field agent for the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Protection. At the age of eleven, she destroyed an entire city block, killing thirty-two people, including her parents and younger brother. Since then, she has been under the care of the Bureau, fighting evil forces and learning to live with her abilities.
Elizabeth Sherman is a quiet, shy and introverted girl who suffers from deep feelings of guilt and low self—esteem due to her unbridled abilities. She finds solace in her childhood friend Hellboy, who has strong romantic feelings for her.

Pyrokinesis: Sherman is capable of pyrokinesis (mental flame control). She can mentally generate fire by releasing flames from her hands or surrounding her body with them in the form of a protective cocoon. In rare cases, she can also levitate with fire, but this is quite rare.
Her powers are extremely unstable and capable of causing enormous damage; when her abilities first awakened as a child, she effortlessly killed more than a dozen people. She is also an expert in hand-to-hand combat, as she has been under the care of the Bureau of Arms Control since she was eleven years old and most likely began physical training as an agent at a young age. She has been shown to be able to knock out one person with a single blow.

Professor Trevor Bruttenholm (pronounced /ˈbruːm/ "Broom", is often called that) He was an expert on the occult and the first director of the Bureau for Research and Protection against the Paranormal.
Being present at the "Hellboy Incident" on December 23, 1944, he unknowingly gave Hellboy his name when he first saw him. In the following years, he was Hellboy's guardian.
In 1944, on October 9, Bruttenholm escorted a group of American special forces to prevent Rasputin from launching the Ragnarok project. He gets shot in the leg by Karl Ruprecht Krenen, which makes him limp for the rest of his life, but throws a hand grenade under the portal machine, which destroys the device and cripples Krenen, who is trying to get it. When the baby Hellboy appears, Bruttenholm adopts him and dedicates himself to raising Hellboy as a human, despite his demonic origins. In the film, the father-son relationship between the two characters is shown more explicitly: Hellboy always calls Bruttenholm "father."
At the beginning of the film, in the present day, Bruttenholm learns that he is dying of cancer and chooses young agent John Myers as Hellboy's new contact.
Trevor Bruttenholm was born on March 5, 1918 in Essex, England. In his youth, he studied at Eton, joined the school's "Ghost Club" and became friends with Harry Middleton.Well versed in the supernatural, Bruttenholm joined the British Society of the Paranormal in July 1938. He graduated from Oxford University in 1943.

Thomas Manning is the director of the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Protection.
History
Manning was born on January 16, 1946 in Somerville, Massachusetts. The son of a government employee, the second of three children, Manning did well in school and enrolled at the American University in Washington, DC.
Career in the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Protection:
Although Manning's family and friends expected him to join the diplomatic service, he applied for a job at the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Protection. He joined the BPRD in 1976.
In 1980, after four years as a field agent, Manning was appointed Director of Field Operations. In 1982, Trevor Bruttenholm resigned as Director of the Bureau; Manning was appointed Director of Field Operations and assisted the interim Director during the transition period.
Thomas Manning is a bureaucrat and politician. He not only heads the Bureau of Investigation of Supernatural Phenomena, but also directs special operations of the FBI. He also plays a key role in hiding the existence of Hellboy and the Bureau of Investigation of Supernatural Phenomena from the public, calling any photographs and eyewitness accounts deliberate falsifications. Manning has a strained working relationship with Hellboy.

Agent BPRD Clay was Hellboy's handler—since Hellboy's existence was kept secret from the rest of the world, he was only allowed outside to perform special tasks and under supervision. Clay held this position for several years, until 2004, when his duties were transferred to Agent John Myers, because director Tom Manning felt that Clay was too soft on Hellboy. He and Hellboy have established a relaxed relationship that falls short of true friendship. Hellboy even makes fun of him because he's going to have a hair transplant to hide his baldness. He is now helping John Myers to master his new responsibilities.

John Myers is a BPRS agent who recently joined the service.
John Myers joins the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Protection at the beginning of the first film. He is transferred from the FBI to Quantico and discovers that his new job is with Squeaky Clean Waste Management Services. He presses the button with the number 103, and is immediately greeted by a quick voice. After he says his name, a car appears from the speaker and photographs John's eyes.
John Myers enters the building and is led to Section 51. This character is used to represent Abe Sapien, the fish man who lives in Professor Trevor Bruttenholm's office. Myers noted that Abe was weird, and called him that when he asked how Abe knew so much about him. Myers also gets to know the main character, Hellboy.
Hellboy and Myers immediately begin to clash after the red demon learns that his contact, Agent Clay, whom he has known for many years, is going to be replaced by a newcomer.
Clay shares information about Hellboy with Myers in order to avoid misunderstandings and better help the new "babysitter." Among this information is Hellboy's love of cats, his sawn horns, and the fact that he needs to be offered his favorite Baby Ruths candies when he's angry or in a bad mood.
