Summary
Vlad III Dracula, known by his people as Voivode the Impaler, was far more than a warrior king: he was the balance between darkness and virtue. His name meant power, and his blade meant brutal justice.
He ruled Wallachia with an iron hand, but under his reign the people were protected from invaders, witches, and beasts of the abyss.
Vlad was not a monster; he was the wall between humanity and the dark. His bloodline carried an ancient fire, a spiritual spark that let him resist corruption and command forces no human should touch.
In the final years of his life, Vlad was betrayed by enemies and pressed by the growing darkness entering the world. His eldest son, Mordrek, opened a forbidden portal using fragments of Nocturna. From that portal came Azrael and an infernal army.
The battle that followed in 1476 at the Castle of the Carpathians became legendary slaughter. Vlad personally led the defense of Wallachia, cutting down demons with his silver spear until his final breath.
When Azrael descended, his power surpassed all understanding. Vlad fell in combat, consumed by black fire and betrayal.
His death deeply marked his children: Mordrek fled in guilt, Alucard was rescued by Nicolae and Mirela, and Selena was pulled away from the chaos by a spell. Though his body perished, Vlad Dracula spirit never vanished.
To Alucard, Vlad was not only a father, but the impossible ideal: a warrior who faced hell and did not kneel.
