The Servant that works under the mad clown Lanrukun. Much like his Master, he is a deranged individual with twisted notions of love.

Vampire...?

A demon that sucks blood.
Under the assumption that it is not a living being created by the Lord, it was painted as an easy to understand antagonist by a certain religious view. Described as drinking the blood of humans, not growing old, being immortal and accompanied by many beasts.

Dracula

Has the meaning of "Son of the Dragon (Dracul)".
His father was a knight in the Order of the Dragon of the Holy Roman Empire and his self-introduction as Dracul originates from that.

Background

A famous hero in Romanian history.
A noble warrior who maintained the independence of Wallachia was as far as being described as the shield of the Christian world.

From the start, Dracula was nothing but the popular name most habitually used to refer to the lord of Wallachia, Vlad III. Strictly speaking, it was Wladislaus Drakwlya. Standpoint-wise, because he was a duke appointed by the Eastern Roman Empire, he signed under the Roman-style. This derived from the fact that his father, Vlad II, was a member of the Order of the Dragon (among a total of 24 members), which was established by the Holy Roman Emperor Sigismund, who called himself Dracul (dragon lord). In other words, because he was the child of Dracul, the a pronunciation that holds the meaning "child" was added at the end thus becoming Dracula.

Incidentally, the purpose of the Order of the Dragon was to protect the Christian world from the Islamic influence. There is the possibility that Vlad III took up the name of Dracula as a form of declaration of the intention of succeeding his father will and safeguarding the Christian world.

In order to protect Wallachia from the Turkish army, he enforced discipline on the nobles that ruined the realm and sentenced 20,000 soldiers of the opposing Turkish army to impalement, but was betrayed by the nobles due going through with a doctrine of rigorous measures. His death came in the form of assassination by the Wallachian nobles that were his subordinates.
Died at the age of 46 years-old.

Dracula

The person who became one of the most famous monsters in the present world.
It can be said to be the greatest sample-case of a literary work that distorted reality...but it is also a fact that not all can be categorized as insolence of the writer. Vlad III did not choose the means to defend the independence of Wallachia and was loathed as if a devil by the Turkish.

Year of 1462.
Known as his greatest impaling, but at the same time a defensive war against the Turkish invasion. Because he had to oppose 150,000 Turkish troops that were like raging waves with an army of just 10,000, he instructed the use of scorched earth-tactics and guerrilla warfare. After making the populace escape to the Carpathian Mountains, going as far as emptying the capital city, he ambushed the Turkish forces. At that time, what stood in the surroundings of the capital city of Bucharest was the impaled figure of over 20,000 Turkish soldiers.

A swarm of countless impaled dead bodies in the surroundings of the citadel of Bucharest. Before its bizarreness and offensive smell, the Turkish soldiers - commended for their bravery - had their morale completely crushed. Even the valorous Mehmed II, who was called the Conqueror, was said to have withdrawn his army while leaving behind the following:

"I am not frightened of any kind of human, but a devil is an exception."

The field of impaled soldiers at that time was of three kilometers in length and one kilometer in width. Even during the occupation of Wallachia by the Ottoman Empire years later, the autonomy of the region continued to be recognized because of this trauma.

Rationality made into brutality. A warrior with an extension of vision above humans. However, he was not blessed with sympathizers and ended his life in middle of despair due to betrayal. But that is the truth of Vlad III.

Also, this is a digression but there is an view on how that was the first time that guerrilla tactics (partisan) were structured in the in the Christian world. If one is to remain unrewarded in spite of having this much talent, surely it is not unreasonable to end up losing the sanity because of that?
