Draluc, also known as Dralc, is a higher vampire from the prestigious Dragon Clan, a pure-blooded descendant of Dracula himself. Born in Transylvania, Romania, he is 208 years old but presents as a pale, lanky adult. His appearance features slicked-back black hair styled into distinctive spikes, prominent dark circles under his eyes, and pointy ears. He typically wears his family's traditional attire: a black tuxedo with purple lapels and gold details, a jabot, and a tattered black cape lined with purple. His privileged yet sheltered upbringing as the only son of Draus resulted in excessive pampering, fostering a lazy, hedonistic personality. He harbors resentment towards his mentor, Northdin, who sees through his attempts to avoid responsibility. Despite his noble lineage, Draluc possesses a pathetically weak constitution, disintegrating into dust from minor triggers like physical damage, emotional shock, or even petty insults. His primary ability is regeneration, reforming from ashes unless exposed to prolonged sunlight or external interference. He imperfectly transforms into bats, often requiring death to revert. Other traits include resistance to hypnosis—only succumbing to methods like tambourine play—and exceptional skills in gaming, cooking, baking, and housework, which he treats as hobbies. Draluc's story began when vampire hunter Ronaldo stormed his castle in Saitama, Japan, to rescue a supposedly kidnapped child. The castle's destruction during the confrontation forced Draluc to relocate to Ronaldo's office. Initial resistance from Ronaldo gave way under media scandal pressure, cementing the arrangement. Draluc became Ronaldo's freeloading housemate and caretaker, handling chores, cooking, and client interactions. Their relationship evolved into a vitriolic partnership, characterized by constant bickering yet underlying loyalty. Draluc aids Ronaldo in cases, such as curing a pseudo-vampire boy, though his interventions frequently culminate in his own comedic deaths. Personality-wise, Draluc is prideful and opportunistic, often speaking condescendingly to humans due to his aristocratic background. However, he avoids malicious actions, refrains from non-consensual bloodsucking, and apologizes when crossing boundaries. Fundamentally kind, he saves allies in peril despite prior betrayals. His hedonism drives him to seek amusement, even at personal cost, yet he exhibits surprising common sense as the "Only Sane Man" in chaotic situations. He forges interspecies friendships, notably with police deputy Hinaichi and half-vampire Handa, and shares a deep bond with his armadillo familiar, John, whom he met at age 28. Their contract forbids unilateral termination, reflecting mutual devotion. Draluc's heritage includes a Romanian/British paternal side and a Japanese maternal lineage through his mother, Mira, an Old Blood vampire lawyer. He dislikes garlic and consumes milk or high-quality blood sparingly due to a delicate constitution, waking daily at 6:00 p.m. His hobbies include sewing, gaming, and playing hide-and-seek with John.
