![]() ![]() When the townsfolk came to drive off Doris because she was marked by the Count and puts them all in danger, D threatens to butcher them on the spot if they don't leave. Characterization Marches On: In the first novel, D is somewhat more emotional and confrontational.Unless his potential lover is a vampire, they'll grow old and die long before he ever will. It's also implied by D that one reason he doesn't pursue romance is because of his vampiric heritage. In the manga, a group of villagers come just as it looks as though they're about to have sex, although it's implied D still would have rejected her advances. In the OVA, he nearly succumbs to his bloodlust when he sees her naked neck, but stops himself and pushes her away. In the first arc, Doris offers herself to him, but D refuses. Celibate Hero: He's no idiot about love, but he abstains from sex and romantic relations, no doubt due to the issues he has with controlling his vampiric blood.This also goes for the Nobility, who generally look down upon the existence of dhampirs for their human blood.ĭ: Because I'm a dhampir. His vampiric heritage and inhuman looks, which out him as a Noble, bring no small amount of distrust from those around him, including his potential employers. Can't Stay Normal: As he says in Bloodlust, it's why he's a Hunter in the first place.BFS: His weapon of choice, which is as long as he is and is also an Absurdly Sharp Blade.Badass Longcoat: Described in the novels to wear a long coat, which looks ominous, though usually, it's a Badass Cape in adaptations and the official illustrations.He still looks as young as he appears towards the end of the film when he attends Leila's funeral, having either succumbed to either age or illness, though not before having a child as one of the girls attending the funeral bears a strong resemblance to her. In Bloodlust, he meets an old man whom D once saved as a boy, who comments that he looks exactly the same. The Ageless: It's ambiguous in the first novel, but becomes less so over time: half-vampires don't really physically age.While D's thoughts on Dracula aren't especially known in the OVA, it seems he has some level of respect for his father, in contrast to the novels where he has absolutely nothing positive to say about the Sacred Ancestor. In the 1985 OVA, D harshly rebukes Larmika's words about the strong preying on the weak, stating that the Sacred Ancestor never believed in such an ideal. Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: Downplayed.Born from the union of a human woman and the Sacred Ancestor himself, D is on a never-ending journey to find the man who created him and cut him down. Impossibly beautiful, dark, mysterious, and blessed with god-like martial prowess ( among other things), he is the worst nightmare of the Nobility. The man, the legend, D is the eponymous vampire hunter and main character of the series.
