Alucard (アルカード, Alucard), full name Adrian Fahrenheit Ţepeş, is the human/vampire hybrid son of Dracula, and recurring character in the Castlevania series. He first appeared as in Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse as a supporting playable character alongside Trevor Belmont, with the purpose of defeating his father. After defeating his father, he goes into an eternal slumber. However, it wouldn't be until Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, where he would be awakened due to the disappearance of a Belmont.
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Alucard appears as an Assist Trophy, using his sword, Crissaegrim, transforming into a bat, and avoiding attacks by transforming into mist. According to Masahiro Sakurai, he is one of the harder Assist Trophies to KO.
Origin
Alucard is a playable character in Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse and the main protagonist in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. His weapon as an Assist Trophy is the Crissaegrim/Valmanway, an extremely rare and powerful sword in Symphony of the Night that allows the wielder to attack while running, as opposed to his iconic Alucard Sword. He is also capable of using the Veil of Mist, a transformation that lets him travel through certain walls and avoid attacks completely, Soul of Bat, a bat transformation that leads into the Wing Smash tackle, and both his divekick and backdash, which has become standard abilities for all Castlevania main characters since their introduction.
