Captain Kronos

Captain Kronos is a vampire hunter during the Protestant Reformation.
== History ==
Kronos was a Captain in the English military during the early 1600s, where he met his friend Dr. Marcus. After he finished serving, he returned home to find his wife and daughter had been murdered by vampires. He swore vengeance upon the undead and began to dedicate the rest of his life to hunting them. It was during his early adventures that he met his longtime partner Hieronymus Grost.
Dr. Marcus called Kronos to his village which is plagued by mysterious deaths marked by highly accelerated aging. Along the way, Kronos and Grost took in a local Gypsy girl, Carla, who had been sentenced to the stocks for dancing on the Sabbath.
In the village, Kronos came into conflict with the mercenary Kerro, who was hired by the vampires they were hunting. Marcus was turned and Kronos was forced to kill him, but by doing so learned how to kill this particular species of vampire. Grost forged a cross into a sword, while Kronos conducted a knightly vigil. After seeing the Durward carriage flee the scene of a vampire attack, Kronos suspected the Durward siblings as the vampires.
Carla pretended to seek refuge at Durward Manor to distract the household while Kronos sneaked inside. The bedridden Lady Durward revealed herself as the vampire and hypnotized Carla and the Durward siblings. Lady Durward raised her husband from the grave and offered the mesmerized Carla to her husband, but Kronos used the new sword's mirrored blade to turn Lady Durward's hypnotic gaze against her. He killed Lord Durward in a duel, and then destroyed Lady Durward.https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071276/
Kronos and his allies then ventured to Romania in search of Porphyr for indeterminate amount of time. After executing him and his horde, they were approached by the militia of Serechurch and asked to deal with the local infestation of the slums which called itself Slake. They discover that the vampires he turns are immune to typical weaknesses, such as sunlight and silver. Kronos managed to kill Slake by stabbing him through the heart with a crucifix, but found that he had actually been hired by vampires that wanted to get rid of their rival.https://www.comics.org/series/117354/
