Hellsing/Characters

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


This page is about characters that appear in the Hellsing manga and OVA. For characters in the TV series, see Hellsing (anime).

Hellsing Organization

Alucard

Voiced by Joji Nakata (JP), Crispin Freeman (EN)

Extremely powerful, to the point where he qualifies as "nature" in terms of man vs. x conflicts, Alucard is a vampire who is well over 400 years old. He acknowledges Integra Hellsing, a woman who is one of the last living members of the Hellsing family, as his Master. He spent twenty years sealed in the depths of the Hellsing manor by Integra's father, until a young Integra discovers his "corpse" when she was fleeing from her wicked uncle. Integra is shot in the shoulder, and her blood just so happens to fly into Alucard's mouth, which awakened him. As a way of showing his thanks, he helps Integra kill her pursuers, and from then on, grants her his services and protection. He is highly skilled in firearms and his vast powers are divided into seals with increasing levels of power (with Level Zero being the strongest to 5 being the "weakest"). His servant is Seras "Police Girl" Victoria.

Most definitely IS Dracula.

SWAT team member: Monster!
Alucard: I get that a lot.

Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing

Voiced by Yoshiko Sakakibara (JP), Victoria Harwood (EN)


The head of the Hellsing organisation and the last descendant of said bloodline; one of the knights of the Round Table also known as the Twelve Conventions that control the 'British Empire' in the shadows and protect the Anglican faith and the Crown. It is unknown how she lost her mother, but her father died when she was about twelve years of age. As her father lay on his deathbed, he told Integra that if she ever was caught in a bad situation and has no one else to turn to, she should head for the cells deep below the manor, where the family's "darkest legacy" is kept, and that it will be her greatest weapon and the "instrument of her salvation". She awakens Alucard with her blood when she was cornered by her evil uncle Richard Hellsing, but Alucard saves her life and swears his loyalty to her. Shortly after this, Integra kills Richard Hellsing and is knighted days later. She's twenty-two years old during the course of most of the story.

Seras "Police Girl" Victoria

Voiced by Fumiko Orikasa (JP), Katey Gray (EN)

A cute young police officer who was caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. She was sent to investigate the mysterious disappearances in the small village of Cheddar. However, things are much worse as she finds out—a vampire masquerading as a priest had taken over the village and killed all the villagers, most of them now turned into slavering, mindless ghouls (zombies). Despite being severely outmatched, Seras refuses to back down and fights as best as she could. She was finally captured and held hostage by the vampire priest, who threatened to rape her (to make her lose her virginity, as non-virgin vampire victims become ghouls) and kill her. Alucard destroys the vampire, shooting Seras through the lung in the process. After this, Seras allows Alucard to suck her blood and transform her into a vampire. She becomes his servant and is employed as one of Hellsing's soldiers soon after.

Walter C. Dornez

Voiced by Motomu Kiyokawa (JP), Ralph Lister (EN)


Integra's butler and also the retired retainer of the Hellsing Family. He is known as the "Angel of Death", due to his incredible fighting prowess and skill with manipulating ultra-thin wires that can cut nearly anything to ribbons. Don't be fooled by his elderly appearance—to this day he can still prove to kick a lot of undead ass.

Pip Bernadotte

Voiced by Hiroaki Hirata (JP), Yuri Lowenthal (EN)


The captain of the Wild Geese mercenaries, who are hired by Hellsing after the entire Hellsing forces were wiped out by the Valentine Brothers. Bernadotte is cynical, snarky, and a pervert, but he's also a cunning strategist and very proficient in the art of war.

Abraham Van Hellsing

  • Badass: This was the man who defeated Alucard at his best, in an implied Curb Stomp Battle and is the reason Alucard thinks Humans Are Special. Damn. Ladies and gentlemen, meet the most Badass characters in the series.
  • Cool Old Guy
  • Face Framed in Shadow: A rare heroic example
  • Nice Hat: It would later become Alucard’s
  • Noodle Incident: Is never explained or show even a glimpse (for all the massive Flashback) of how Abraham managed to defeat and enslave Alucard. All that is stated is that Alucard went all out, was imprisoned and Abraham managed to put such fear (and respect) in Alucard that he hunted his nightmares for hundreds of years and make him weep blood... yeah. No matter how you cut it, this man is Badass
    • It is heavily implied Alucard was much weaker back then and more in line with a normal vampire. Hellsing is stated to have experimented heavily on him in the last hundred years making him stronger which was why Anderson was surprised the conventional ways to kill a vampire did not work on Alucard.
  • Our Founder
  • World's Strongest Man: It certainly says something if this guy gave Alucard a run for his money, and engraved his mindset about humans.

Arthur Hellsing

Father of Intergra and leader before her


Iscariot/Vatican Section XIII

Father Alexander Anderson

Voiced by Norio Wakamoto (JP), Steven Brand (EN)


A member of the Vatican black ops group the Iscariot Organization, Anderson is a Catholic priest trained to efficiently kill vampires. He has been genetically engineered to heal from any wound he receives, making him Alucard's equal in combat. His weapon of choice is blessed bayonets, which he carries in great quantities, throwing them with unerring accuracy in order to hit his target in as many places as possible. Both in and out of battle he is a very compassionate and caring person, whether it is towards the orphans in his charge or his fellow members of Iscariot. However he shows no mercy to his opponents, but holds special place in his heart for Alucard (presumably for his challenging nature) and Integra (whose bravery he finds impressive).

Enrico Maxwell

Voiced by Show Hayami (JP), JB Blanc (EN)

Maxwell is the ambitious commander of Section XIII and an even more fanatically bloodthirsty Catholic than Anderson. While he does not do any fighting and killing in person, his orders are ruthless and he shows no mercy to Protestants, considering the "sinners" to be less than human. Maxwell can be viewed as Integra's rival, in the same way that Anderson is Alucard's rival.

Heinkel Wolfe and Yumie Takagi

Heinkel and Yumie first appear in the Crossfire extras at the end of Hellsing volumes 1, 2, and 3 as female Iscariot assassins, taking down various anti-Catholic terrorists. Heinkel, who cross-dresses as a priest, wields a pair of pistols. Yumie exists as the fanatical alternate personality of the meek nun Yumiko, the only Japanese character in Hellsing. Both are extremely effective in combat.

Word of God says that the Heinkel and Yumie in Crossfire are different characters from the ones that appear in the main continuity, but they are identical in personality and appearance anyway. The OVA has given both slightly more screentime.

Renaldo

Maxwell's advisor

M'quive

Maxwell's sucessor

Millennium

The Major

Voiced by Nobuo Tobita (JP), Gildart Jackson (EN)


The leading commander of Millenium, an nazi vampire organization hellbent on destroying London as a revenge for the Third Reich's defeat. He is a short, fat, Aryan cyborg who was a former member of SS, who was given order from the Führer himself to create a mighty army of super vampires. He created at least 1000 vampires before Nazi Germany's defeat but the Major took the Führer's order at heart and spent the last 50 years on planning to restart World War II.


The Captain

The Dragon to the Major's Big Bad. He is a seemingly-immortal werewolf, always seen in his full uniform with the collar turned up. Like Alucard and Anderson, the Captain is Millenium's supernatural trump card, boasting great strength, speed and abilities in all three of his forms.

The Doktor

The chief scientist of Millennium. He is the one responsible for the creation of the artificial vampires, made possible by his work involving "Shi" (Mina Harker's remains). He is always seen with a blood-stained lab coat, glasses with multiple lens, and often a remote with many buttons whose functions range from incinerating subordinates to destroying Jackal. Ironically, he's arguably the sanest of the Millennium bunch. He frequently scolds Warrant Officer Schrodinger.

First Lieutenant Zorin Blitz

As part of Operation Seelowe 2, she is tasked with attacking Hellsing Manor, laying siege to it with Seras and the Wild Geese inside. As a vampire, she is enthusiastic about killing humans, frequently calling them "insects". Zorin makes use of her ability to torture her opponents, physically and mentally. She has an intense fixation on Seras for some reason. Which doesn't end well for her.

First Lieutenant Rip Van Winkle

Voiced by Maaya Sakamoto (JP), Kari Wahlgren (EN)

Millennium's magical sharpshooter and Perky Female Minion, seen singing opera in her first appearance. She compares herself to Kaspar, the protagonist of the German opera Der Freischütz; appropriately, her Weapon of Choice is a musket with magic bullets.

Warrant Officer Schrodinger

Voiced by Ryoko Shiraishi (JP), Laura Bailey (EN)

The blond, sassy Catboy who's "everywhere and nowhere". Although he looks like comic relief, he's not to be brushed off. Due to his powers, he's practically impossible to kill.


Tubalcain "The Dandy" Alhambra

Voiced by Hochu Otsuka (JP), Steve Wilcox (EN)

The second Millennium agent to confront Hellsing. He is modeled after Brazilian malandro characters and his powers are very similar to various DC and Marvel characters.

The Valentine Brothers

Voiced by Takehito Koyasu (Luke, JP) and Wataru Takagi (Jan, JP), Patrick Seitz (Luke, EN) and Josh Philips (Jan, EN)

Jan and Luke Valentine are the first of the Millennium forces sent specifically to attack Hellsing.

Appearance-wise, Luke is a sophisticated prettyboy. He is the "brains" of the operation and he believes that he can surpass Alucard. His vampiric power manifests as regeneration and super-speed. While Jan doesn't seem to have any specialized power whatsoever, he's more than happy to casually slaughter ordinary humans. Covered in piercings, he is the more vulgar and depraved of the brothers.

Despite their status as some of the weaker nonhumans of the cast, they manage to inflict significant casualties on Hellsing's human personnel.

After their deaths, Luke and Jan become the hosts of the Hellsing omakes at the end of each manga volume.

Alucard: If I'm a dog...then you're dog food.

BRINGIN' THE MOTHERFUCKIN' DEATH BY KONAMI!!


The Convention of Twelve

A secret organization that controls England from the shadows, and is modeled after the Knights of the Round Table. Some members of Parliament, military officers, and a few prominent nobles are among its members, as well as the leader of Hellsing (currently Integra). Integra's father and predecessor Arthur Hellsing (who gets some screentime in Dawn) may have been the "leader" of the Convention, and passed his position of authority to his daughter and Sir Islands. It is likely that membership is hereditary; Sir Penwood informs Integra that this is how he got into the Convention, and the finale reveals that Sir Penwood's grandson succeeded him.
