Vampirella

The extra-terrestrial heroine who is considered a vampire, since she needs blood to survive and had many of the typical vampiric powers, including increased strength and reflexes, shape-shifting into a bat, and a mesmeric stare. She is not prone to the group's traditional weaknesses viz. daylight, holy water, garlic or crosses. She cannot, most importantly, transform others into vampires. She does not attack people to drink their blood, although she does it occasionally when she is attacked. She is almost always scantily clad (usually in trademark red in the newer books, see below). The name is said to be inspired by 'Barbarella'.

Conrad van Helsing

A blind psychic and vampire hunter, he makes the substitute blood serum that keeps Vampirella's thirst for blood under control. He was after Dracula and initially tried to destroy Vampirella, believing her to be akin to the monster. He later realised his mistake.

Adam van Helsing

Son of Conrad van Helsing and the last of a long line of vampire hunters, he followed his father's steps and became a paranormal researcher. He is portrayed as more open-minded than his father. He believed that Vampirella was not your usual evil vampire and, quite soon, they shared a relationship. Vampirella has often helped Adam in his research. In the new series he finds redemption in Drakulon / Hell.
