Alucard (Captain N)

Alucard is a character in Captain N: The Game Master. He is loosely based on Alucard from the Castlevania series, in particular from his appearance in Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse. He appeared in the third season's episode "Return to Castlevania" (aired in 1993).
He was voiced by Ian James Corlett.
==History==
Alucard is the son of the Count and a local resident of Castlevania in Videoland. He was banished by his father when the Poltergeist King almost escaped from captivity under his watch. Rebellious by nature, Alucard decided to save Captain N and Simon Belmont from a trap and then helped them get inside the Count's castle.
However, when his father appeared to confront them, Alucard revealed that everything was just a rouse and turned against the heroes. He summoned four Mummies to attack them, although both he and his minions were quickly and easily defeated by Kevin and Simon.
==Appearance and personality==
In the cartoon, Alucard is depicted as a rebellious, music-loving, nineties archetypal teenager wearing sunglasses and with blond hair combed in a big pompadour curl on the front. Just like in Dracula's Curse, he wears a long, black cape.
He is shown of being capable of going to great extents in order to achieve his goals, even if that means having to gain the trust of his adversaries to later turn against them at the worst possible moment. Alucard persuades the N Team to become their ally, convincing them of helping in putting a stop to his evil father, the Count (another similarity to his Dracula's Curse counterpart); however, it is later revealed that he was actually in league with his father all along and turns against them.
==Powers and abilities==
In "Return to Castlevania", Alucard is seen demonstrating both of his abilities from Dracula's Curse; he transforms into a bat and conjures fireballs out of his cape.
Being the rebellious teenager he's portrayed like in the cartoon, he's also shown to be remarkably skilled with the skateboard and has actually developed his very own trademark trick, which he named the "Bat-Flip".

==Trivia==
*Although non-canon, this rendition of Alucard is technically the first version to depict him with light-colored hair, as his appearance in Captain N predates the two Kid Dracula titles and Ayami Kojima's redesign of the character for Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.
