View Full Version : Is Arucard jesus?
On one scene, Icognito asks, "Who are you really?" Then Arucard's hair is wrapped around a cross, and the other side of his face looks like Jesus.
No.
My guess he is Vlad the Impaler, the original basis for Dracula.
hmmmm... I was toying with the idea that Alucard could be Casca the cursed roman legionnaire who stabbed Jesus with his spear ...
... according to what I could gather in this individual ... after his deed, as he was splashed by the blood of the dying Jesus, he became cursed to wander the earth for his sins until the end of time i.e. Armeggedon.
It would be short stretch to turn Casca into the archtype vampire ... along the lines of ...
"After accidentally ingesting a drop of blood of the Christ ... Casca doomed himself to a damned immortality to pay for his sin against god ... to further his suffering, he is compelled to slay repeatedly and to take a symbolic drink of the victims blood ... pennance is found in the choice of victim - the evilest of humans ... those without redemption ... sentanced to face the appointed "Executioner of God"
hmmmm ... I think I'll write a short story on this :lol:
Cas .... errrr ... I mean Sam :o
Look at his mustache.......

Alucard in this seen represents his supposive father "Dracula". it is said that the son of dracula, will be named in the reverse in honor of his father.
DRACULA=ALUCARD
or arucard for those morons who think his name is spelled with an R
There is an old playstation game and one of the lead characters is called 'Alucard'.. who (Alucard) has the mission of killing his father i think..

Yup, the other Alucard is from "Castlevania: Symphony of the Night," an awesome video game.
How about this? Has anybody here saw the (lame) movie "Dracula 2000."
Could Alucard actually be...[highlight improbable spoiler] Judas Icariot?

doubt it. Alucard is either dracula himself or his son. Period.

The fact it it would be rather illogical to be anything else, judging by the Pic that was posted. *shrug* maybe he's a clone or something. But i doubt he's unrelated.
I posted the pic. That's Vlad, a real historic figure, not the fictional Dracula.

I think I'm related to Vlad Dracul somehow.
Hah, I love how I'm not contributing any real information.
If the character Alucard had any basis though, I'm guessing it would be Dracula (the vampire), and in turn, the Impaler up there.

umm, first of no.
Second, What would have Dracula or his sun do to make them turn there name backwards? Most times when someone changes there name something really good, or bad happened to them
(IE Saul changing his name to Paul)
So what would have happend to him to make him spell it backwards?

"Alucard: An assumed name used by count Dracula, created by spelling his real name backward. This novelty was first employed in the 1943 universal picture Son of Dracula, starring Lon Chaney, Jr. The use of this name was repeated with such regularity in subsequent works that its very appearance in a film created either a campy atmosphere or unintentional humor."
Quoted from "The Vampire Encyclopedia"
Seeing as Dracula was based off of Vlad the impaler, I have to agree with Schizm.
doubt it. Alucard is either dracula himself or his son. Period.im convinced its vlad

Yes, and Andersen is Judas Iscariot. This explains why Alucard beat Andersen, because Jesus always beats Judas in the end.

Haha.. umm I can't tell if your being sarcastic or not.
In the Manga Alucard himself admits that he is Dracula.

I'm being totally serious-- it clearly states in the Bible how a guy in a big red coat, red hat and yellow glasses was duking it out in an almighty fight to the finish gun VS knives battle with a giant guy in a big grey jacket (called Andersen), on a train......in an anime called Hellsing--
Interesting point about the manga, but why would a fictional character admit to being another fictional character?

:rolleyes: Is that a literal translation; I mean from this world used in this 'fiction' or some sort of metaphor :confused:

I'm not related to Vlad in any way that I know of, but my late grandfather was from Transylvania. They call the historical impaler, "Uncle Vlad" because he's a national hero there.
*spoiler*
The only way Alucard could be Jesus is if he was his reincarnation or something.. the fact is it would be ironic if he was; when Anderson uses "Elena's Nail" on himself to become something of a demigod to beat Alucard (One of the nails that was used to crucify christ.. so it has 'his' blood :rolleyes: )
Anyways, how did anyone get the idea that Alucard might be Jesus in the first place :lol:

Alucard is definitely Vlad the Impaler. **Minor Spoiler:** Look what he did to Incognito ~in the end~ (literally) :lol: !

Yeah, I was kind of wondering that myself ... if it were not for the name reversal and actual hints in the series ... I would be tempted to guess that Alucard was a major demon or perhaps Lucifer himself! That at least would seem to fit with his defeat by Elena's nail (blood of Christ). ... but really with the name reversal from Dracula ... I think it obvious that Alucard is in some way shape or form Dracula ... just snazzed up for the new generation.

what can i cay? um... well we shall start with the painfully obvous
SINCE WHEN HAS JESUS IMPALED ANYONE.
then the whole fact that well the whole story is about vampires
and then we have the little thing about how the whole thing is dripping in vlad/dracula mythos.
I've prabably missed stuff but i think i've done enough damage for now

Lovely wikipedia... it helps us learn so much on fictional and historical information.
>The spelling "Alucard" would also be justified because of the "Dracula" anagram, although the sounds of "Alucard" would normally be represented by arukādo in Japanese
> Alter Ego: Vlad III Dracula
> Alucard was born in the winter of 1431 as Vlad III Dracula, the son of Vlad II Dracul. He later became known as Vlad Ţepeş (Vlad the Impaler), and as Kazıklı Bey (the Impaling Prince) by the Turks
> The next known account of Alucard's life is during World War II, in 1944. Count Dracula now went by a new name given to him by Integra's father Arthur, which was Alucard. Alucard, along with a 14-year-old Walter C. Dornez, was sent to Warsaw, Poland, to stop Millennium's vampire production program
just some major pointers.
My own personal knowledge on Dracula isn't much except being Vlad the Impaler and what I've seen on the History Channel (yes... I have no life :P) but prefer the vampire Dracula :) he's cooler.
