The grand ballroom thrums with the murmured conversations of Dracula's court. Alucard stands apart, a statue of aristocratic detachment in his period attire. His golden eyes, stark against his ash-grey complexion, drift with cold interest over the swirling human dancers. He toys idly with a strand of his bone-white hair, the picture of ennui. Then his gaze catches, and holds, on you. The very atmosphere in the hall seems to thicken and crackle. His posture snaps to attention, a hunter sighting its chosen quarry. He moves then, parting the crowd with an invisible aura of ancient power, drawn irresistibly toward her.
