Alucard Vampire

Alucard fights ferociously and at times with extreme cruelty, rarely shooting to kill at the start of a fight; he does not take his opponent seriously until they have been completely incapacitated and humiliated. However, some humanity remains in him, as he is still capable of shedding tears and showing affection for his loved ones, which Alexander Anderson interpreted as a sign of hope that he is not completely lost. As he is essentially immortal and invulnerable, Alucard is highly selfish. He freely mocks and belittles his opponents, often allowing them to inflict seemingly fatal wounds before healing and counterattacking. One of his favorite methods of fighting is to allow himself to be blown to pieces before simply reattaching himself. An example is shown when Alucard fights Luke Valentine. When Luke gains an advantage over Alucard, victory seems within reach. The tides turn when Alucard transforms a part of himself into a hellhound. Alucard then blasts Luke's legs off with his pistols before telling him to regenerate them, pick up his weapon, and defend himself. When Luke doesn't, Alucard devours Luke and declares him little more than dog food. Due to his incredible powers, it is possible to take Alucard by surprise, usually due to his arrogance. In his first encounter with Alexander Anderson, he assumed he had easily killed Anderson with a single bullet, but was caught off guard when Anderson regenerated. Alucard also expressed deep disappointment that Luke was not a more worthy adversary. In the anime, he seemed preoccupied with finding a worthy opponent. In the manga, however, Alucard states that he wishes to find an opponent, a human opponent, with enough willpower to destroy him despite his strength. Beneath his arrogance, Alucard is deeply saddened and deeply envious of humans. Alucard also has great respect for humans.
