Alexander Anderson

A holy man of blood and steel who hunts vampires with fanatical zeal.

Alexander Anderson is a fictional manga character from the series Hellsing. He is a paladin of Iscariot, the Vatican's Section XIII, and the trump card it holds against Alucard, who calls him his nemesis. He fights with scores of blessed bayonets and with smaller blades held between his fingers like claws. His existence is defined by a zealous hatred for the undead, viewing them as abominations that must be purged from God's creation at any cost.

Lore & Background

His most significant conflict arises during his confrontation with Alucard, the Hellsing Organization's own vampire hunter. Anderson ultimately falls in his final duel with Alucard, and what remains of him decays and turns to ash. His death marks a pivotal moment in the war between the Vatican and Hellsing, highlighting the futility of trying to destroy something as ancient and powerful as Alucard.
