for Vlad Tepes III/The Count Dracula in Dracula : Legacy of the Dragon
Suggested by jeanpaulvalley
In the early 2010s, excavations launched by Professor Abraham Van Helsing in Transylvania discovered, in the castle of Vlad Tépès, the possible presence of the tomb of the Impaler. The Professor's protege, Mina Harker, and some members of her group will be forced, under armed threat from her colleague Renfield and mercenaries, to go to the Count's grave. Not heeding the professor's warnings, Renfield awakens the powerful vampire with his blood, the creature frightening the mercenaries who shoot at him, this only having the effect of angering him. As Van Helsing, Mina and others escape, Dracula easily kills the mercenaries before Renfield saves his life by explaining to him that he is a servant wanting to help him, intriguing the Count. He uses the researcher's knowledge to try to better understand his world, when he is shocked to find that Transylvania is secretly under the control of the betraying vampire, Nosferatu, and extremely well-armed mercenaries. He wants to restore order to the blood but, after being summoned by Van Helsing, a group of extraordinary beings intervene, telling him that he had better act as a hero for all. This, and the fact that Mina looks like exactly to his late wife, will make Dracula question himself. If these people, considered monsters for their appearance, fight for good as heroes... shouldn't he do the same ?
