Adrian Farenheight Ţepeş, better known as Alucard, is one of the main protagonists of the Konami's Castlevania franchise.
He is the dhampir son of Count Vlad "Dracula" Tepes and Lisa. Unlike his father, Alucard holds no prejudice views towards humanity and is willing to protect them, even if it means opposing his father. Ever since then, he's been one of the major heroes throughout the entire series, protecting the world from those who seek to threaten it.
He is voiced by Yuri Lowenthal who also voices Spider-Man in Marvel's Spider-Man.
What Makes Him Pure Good?[]
- In Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse, Alucard helps Trevor Belmont defeat him by going through lots of trials and overall can prove to be a key point in Dracula's downfall while he did help cause the fall of his father in his ending with Trevor it was justified and he did feel regret for it.
- In Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Alucard frees Richter Belmont from Shaft’s control and teams up with Richter to defeat Dracula.
- In Castlevania: Nocturne of Recollection, Magnus, an Incubus, tries to convince Alucard to become evil but Alucard refuses and teams up with Maria, Richter, Cyril and Alexis to defeat Magnus. It's revealed Alucard once went on a blood lust, drinking the blood of many humans but this was because he was brainwashed by Magnus this was very brief and not Alucard’s fault as he only drank the blood to save his friend Lyudmil.
- In the recently scrapped mobile game, Castlevania: Moonlight Rhapsody, Alucard once again helps the new heroes defeat Dracula.
- In Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, Alucard teams up with Julius Belmont to kill Dracula once and for all in 1999, leading to Dracula reincarnating as Japanese high schooler Soma Cruz. Under the disguise of Genya Arikado he acts as a protector and mentor of Soma and helps him defeat Graham Jones and save Mina Hakuba, Soma’s girlfriend.
- In Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, he once again assists Soma as his mentor and prevents Soma from becoming the dark lord again when Soma is shown “Mina” dying. Both Soma and Alucard team up to defeat Dmitri Blinov. In Julius mode, a non-canon option if Soma becomes the Dark Lord, Alucard teams up with Yoko Belnades and Julius Belmont to defeat Dark Lord Soma Cruz.
- In Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls, Alucard teams up with other monster slayers to save the Grimoire of Souls from corruption.
- In Castlevania: Rhapsody of Rebirth, he teams up with Julius Belmont’s nephew, Raphael “Raph” Dante Belmont, to defeat Alaric Wampyr Runkle, who’s the reincarnation of an entirely different Dracula apart from his own father.
Trivia[]
- His animated series counterpart is Inconsistently Admirable.
- In the non-canon game Castlevania Legends, Alucard insisted for Sonia Belmont to not fight Dracula and have him fight Dracula instead as he didn’t want to lose her before challenging her to a duel to determine who was stronger to face Dracula. If this game was canon, this would have likely further progressed his Pure Good status.
- As of now, Alucard and Leon Belmont are the only two Castlevania characters to be Pure Good.
