Blade is a Dhampir, a mix between a human and a vampire. He has devoted his life to fighting off evil vampires, such as Dracula. After years of trying to locate Dracula, Blade eventually finds him in Paris. Arriving in Paris, Blade encounters Quincy Harker, a vampire hunter whom he knows by reputation. Harker's team consists of Rachel van Helsing, Taj Nital, and Frank Drake. Due to Blade's selfish fighting style and uncontrollable temperament he strains himself from Harker's team, but keeps a steady relationship with them. After an unsuccessful battle with Dracula, Blade realizes he needs Harker and his team in order to kill the King of Vampires. Blade and the team are unable to track down Dracula, but are able to kill Deacon Frost, a vampire sorcerer whom allies with Dracula. After the death of Deacon, Dracula resurfaces and commands all of his vampires to attack Blade and Harker's team. The battle ends with Blade and Frank Drake as the only remaining vampire hunters. The others die in battle. Blade and Drake's extremely injured bodies are found by Hannibal King, a private detective whom Deacon Frost had turned into a vampire. He saves them both and takes their lifeless bodies home to care for.
