Fictional character biography

Noah van Helsing is a descendant of Abraham Van Helsing and a distant relative of Rachel van Helsing. He created a team of vampire hunters with the task of killing Dracula. One of those recruits is Blade.[1] Blade ends up training with Noah van Helsing and his team of vampire hunters. Following a tale that revolved around a vampire lord named Vernae forcing a mystic named Aamshed into performing a ritual that can turn a vampire lord into a god, Noah states that Dracula plans to do the same thing and suggest they plant a small nuclear detonator into Dracula's crypt. While making their way to Dracula's crypt, the group is ambushed by Dracula's vampires.[2] Following the vampire attack, Noah tells Blade that another part of Dracula's metamorphosis would have Dracula requiring a human woman so that there would be a new breed of daytime vampires. Noah van Helsing is later abducted by the Yiki Onnas and taken to Dracula's castle. At Dracula's headquarters, it is revealed that Noah van Helsing's real name is Noah Tremayne and that he is the only Van Helsing in name and not in blood. The vampire generals then swiftly kill Noah van Helsing.[3]
