Character Information
Name: Abigail 'Abby' Heller-Van Helsing known aliases Abigail Heller or Abigail Sheppard
Age: 28
Sex: Female
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Occupation: Waitressing or just about anything if she's in a place long enough. She chooses not to live off her Trust Fund. (Prefers not to use her family money or wealth knowing where it comes from but dips in when there is no other way).
Character Type: Past: Human/Vampire Hybrid followed by Vampire/Conqueror Present: Conqueror (First Horseman of the Apocalypse)/Her blood is the cure to vampirism
Powers: As the Conqueror/ First Horseman, Abigail is immortal and knows the sins of anyone she comes in contact with. At present she hasn't learned to block or reverse them towards the sinner. She is a skilled fighter and archer having worked with the Knights of Templar once upon a time. Her blood is now the cure for vampirism.
Personality: Abby isn't mousy or shy and will speak her mind with some very colorful four letter words. She's always analyzing the next move and observant of the human and vampire condition. She understands both sides on levels the other one can't grasp or comprehend. She doesn't give her trust freely if at all but will work for the greater good. When she loves she loves deeply. She is fair but tough.
Detailed History: Abigail is the daughter of Mary Heller-Van Helsing and Simon Sheppard (They never married therefore legally on paper she has her mother's sir name). She is the granddaughter of Abraham Van Helsing and has deep biologically ties to Vlad III Dracul also known as Vlad the Impaler or simply Dracula in some tales he's even been called Judas. Van Helsing imprisoned Dracula and appointed himself guardian of his body unable to find anything capable of destroying the creature. He used Dracula's blood in small doses to sustain his life. He would age with limited properties of living beyond a normal human life span and passed the DNA to his daughter Mary when he took a wife. Mary in turn has done the same with her own daughter Abigail.
Like Mary's mother, Simon took Abigail from Mary to give her a better life away from all the death. Mary agreed it was best and would stay away taking her role as guardian of Dracula after her father's murder and final battle with the immortal creature during a brief awakening. Simon raised Abigail in New York City hoping the large city would swallow them whole. It didn't keep the nightmares away. Abigail has taken a battery of meds to keep her sanity in check from a very young age. Simon trained her in archery and fencing. Made sure she was well read and educated. But friends were to be kept at arm's length and her family background was never to be revealed to anyone.
When Abby was 13, she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. During a botched robbery she was mortally wounded by a stray bullet. Simon reached out to Mary so she could stay good bye. Unable to let her only daughter die before her, Mary did the unthinkable and transfused a large amount of Dracula's blood intravenously when she arrived at the hospital. The dormant DNA in Abby fused with his fresh blood saving her life. The consequences were quickly noticeable. Abby needed to drink blood in order to survive. She was linked to every vampire within a 1 mile radius feeling and seeing what they felt and saw. Her father fled from the city with her. Mary returned to her post. He never forgave Mary for what she did.
Abigail spent her teenage years living out in the country in the middle of nowhere. Simon reluctantly agreed to let Abby go to college. They settled on a
small college in New Hampshire. In college Abby was soon recruited by the church where she met Father Vincent a Knights Templar for the Vatican. There were rumors and talk about the depth of their relationship and the complicity of it. No one really knows if anything happened between them even though it was forbidden.
Vincent was badly wounded during a raid into a vampire den and unable to work in the field again. They parted bitterly with Vincent taking his new post in Boston's Trinity Church and Abby leaving wanting nothing more to do with the church. Making a difference would come on her own terms.
It's been several years since she's seen Father Vincent and when she got word from him that he needed her help, that it was a matter of life and death. She packed her car the next morning and drove up to Boston from her latest hellish venture. And now confronted with her past she'll have to fight for a future but not only hers . . . All of mankind.
Abigail was killed by the Fallen Angel Laylah the event turned her into a full vampire. She was later cured but remains immortal thanks to her status as the Conqueror (First Horseman).
*Abigail Heller-Van Helsing is an original character created from the Dracula 2000 movie verse (based on her age only the timeline of the year 2000 where the movie events took place has changed but the events themselves remain intact), various characters from that movie have been referenced.
