 Alucard Ţepeş from Castlevania Alucard Ţepeş is the name of the son of Dracula in the Castlevania video game series. His true full name is Adrian Farenheits Ţepeş. As the offspring of an unnatural bond between Dracula and a human woman named Lisa, Adrian had special powers, preordained to be stronger than any human but not potentially as strong as his father. After Lisa was tried and killed, mistaken for a witch, Adrian grew up under the influence of his father, whence he was taught in the black arts and molded into a warrior who would one day fight for the side of evil.

Adrian's existence did not come without quirks, as the gentle, human side of his mother always seemed to cloud his "better judgment", as Dracula would have put it. Before his mother's death, Adrian was by her side. Even though he was enraged, she insisted that he not take that anger out on the humans. With those thoughts forever implanted into his being, his mind always wandered as he questioned his father's intentions. After standing by for as long as he could, he broke away from his father's army and disappeared. Understanding that Dracula was going to implore his wrath on the people, Adrian would turn his efforts towards destroying his father's army, hopefully encouraging him to reconsider. Furthermore, he chose to go under the name "Alucard" — his father's branded name in reverse — to represent that he stood for beliefs opposite that of his father's.

Kid Dracula Though speculative, it is quite possible that the character who starred in the game, Kid Dracula, was indeed Alucard early in his life. It has been noted that early in Alucard's life, he did indeed emulate his father and at one time, intended to completely follow in his footsteps. Kid Dracula could be documenting his life during this time. Kid Dracula is a pair of video game titles by Konami released during the early 90s. ...
However, since Kid Dracula takes on a hero's role, it is possible that Alucard has already renounced his evil father's ways and took on the path of a hero. The storyline of Kid Dracula states that Kid Dracula wakes from a long sleep, which seems very much like future "sleeps" that Alucard would put himself in.
Castlevania: Legends
 Alucard Ţepeş from Castlevania Legends The first game where Alucard chronologically appeared was Castlevania Legends, yet not as a playable character. In the year 1450, Alucard appeared as Sonia Belmont's lover. Almost as soon as they met, the two fell in love and became very close. Alucard then revealed his intentions to her: His father had to be stopped, and he was the one to do it. Castlevania Legends artwork of Alucard This work is copyrighted. ...

Sonia revealed to Alucard that she intended to do the same. They had to part ways at this point, as Sonia would go on to battle her way through the castle of Dracula. During her adventure, Sonia would encounter Alucard one more time as he tested her skills in battle and found her to be more than worthy.
Feeling that he could be a danger to humankind afterwards, Alucard submerged his powers and put himself into a state of rest, much to the sadness of Sonia. He would rise again soon enough, however.
It should be noted that there is speculation about the possibility of Alucard being Trevor Belmont's father through his union with Sonia. This is mere speculation and hasn't been confirmed by Konami. This would theoretically however, explain many of the Belmont's powerful abilities in the bloodline.

With the help of Richter's sister-in-law, Maria Renard, they were able to find out the truth: The Dark Priest Shaft was controlling Richter and wanted to raise Dracula from his dark slumber.

Having defeating Shaft, Alucard discovered that his efforts were in vain, as Shaft's plan had come to fruition regardless. He solely defeated his father in combat once more, and sent him back to the grave. He then planned to put himself back at rest, but since Maria had fallen in love with him during their meetings, she tried to prevent him from doing so. Whether she managed to stop him in time is not known.
Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow
 Image of Genya Arikado In the year 2035, a man named Genya Arikado and his close associate Yoko Belnades, a Catholic Church employee, began to frequently visit the Hakuba Shrine in Japan. Mina, the shrine caretaker's daughter, was not sure sure of what they were looking for, but she was always friendly to the duo. Genya, an extremely cold man with an inhumanly attractive face, was a member of a shadowy organization somehow related to national security. He and Yoko knew well about the events where the castle was sealed away in the eclipse by a group of vampire hunters, and about the prophecy that says someone would come to the castle in 2035 to inherit Dracula's powers.

In their investigation, they found the link between the Hakuba Shrine and the dark side of the eclipse. They decided to enter the castle, where they planned to prevent the rebirth of Count Dracula.
In reality, Genya Arikado was Alucard himself, risen from his resting place due to the absence of a Belmont to deal with the situation. Julius Belmont was present, roaming the castle, but his amnesia and advanced age made it too risky for him to get involved in big conflicts.
Alucard knew that the power of the seal holding Dracula was wearing off. If someone with bad intentions (like Graham Jones) were to seize the opportunity and inherit that power, his father would return, reborn. A madman who is the antagonist for Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow. ...
Alucard then came up with a plan. He would find someone with powers similar to the Dark Lord's (but with a goodwill) and summon him to the castle on the day of the solar eclipse. That person turned out to be Soma Cruz. Alucard helped him to discover his natural absorbing abilities in hope that Soma would use that power to collect the enemies' souls and the castle's energy essence, becoming someone as powerful as Dracula. A self-aware absorber who would use that collected power to enter into where only Dracula could go: The Chaotic Realm where the seal remained broken, having the chance to fix it by destroying the source. Soma Cruz Soma Cruz, known in Japan as Soma Kurusu (æ¥é ˆè’¼çœŸ Kurusu SÅma), is the protagonist from the game Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow and is slated to reprise his role as the main protagonist in the upcoming Nintendo DS game Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow. ...
Soma was able to cut the flow of Chaos and suppress Dracula's spirit before it could take over his body completely, resealing the castle within the eclipse, bringing his friends to safety, and ending the threat of Dracula's resurrection. The kanji for "Genya" means "illusion," while "Arikado" means "to have horns." Arikado also has a double meaning, in that it is similar to the katakana spelling of Alucard (Arukado, or Ah-Ru-Ka-Do.

Alucart Alucart is assumed to be a parody of Alucard. In Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, three pieces of equipment (an armor, sword, and shield) brand the name. Each piece is weaker than Alucard's brand respectively, but when all three pieces of the equipment are worn together, Alucard gains a lot more luck. To obtain Alucart status, Alucard must find the Alucart equipment scattered throughout the castle of his father, and equip them.
