'''Rachel Alucard''' (レイチェル＝アルカード) is a [[vampire]], former [[Onlooker]], and head of the [[Alucard Clan]] of vampires. She is the daughter of [[Clavis Alucard]], and watches over the world from the [[Alucard Castle]] alongside her butler [[Valkenhayn R. Hellsing]]. Rachel wields the [[Sankishin]]: [[Tsukuyomi Unit]], and has no [[Eye of the Hunter|life-force value]]. She is constantly followed by her familiars - [[Nago]] and [[Gii]].


She is one of the original twelve characters who debuted in ''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]''.
Rachel is one of the original twelve characters who debuted in ''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]''. She was revealed for ''[[BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War]]'' on February 1st, 2021.


==Appearance==
==Appearance==
Rachel is a petite girl with pale skin, red eyes, and long blonde hair tied into twin tails with black ribbons, which resemble rabbit ears when done up. Despite looking like a young girl, due to being a vampire, Rachel is much older than she appears.


A small, pale vampire with large red eyes and long blonde hair tied into twin tails with black ribbons, Rachel looks much younger than she actually is. She is almost exclusively seen in her large, backless black dress that stops just below her knees. The dress is intricate, with two parts to it, the first of which stops on her hips and sits above the other part which ends in white frills and has small red crosses near the front base of the lower dress. On this second part are large red wings which can extend and contract according to Rachel's will. The sleeves of the dress also end in white frills, and have red crosses adorning each sleeve. At her collar is a ruffled white cravat which is obscured by a large red ribbon. On top of her dress she wears a small cape that is decorated with the same red crosses that cover her sleeves. Under her dress she wears white tights and large, black, platformed boots that come up to her knees, and a red ribbon tied on her right ankle.
She wears a black knee-length gothic-themed dress with bell sleeves and a matching skirt. Over this she wears a shawl in the same color as her dress. A large red ribbon sits in the front of the dress with white frills under both the skirt and the sleeves. On top of the skirt are large red wings which can extend and contract according to Rachel's will. Underneath the dress, Rachel wears a sleeveless white ruffled shirt, a matching set of white bloomers and a pair of large, black, knee high, heel-less platform boots with red laces. The dress has a prominent cross motif with red crosses with a white outline appearing on several parts, specifically adorning the hem of the sleeves, the front of the skirt and on the shawl.


When using Tsukuyomi, her eyes turn amber, and she is always seen carrying Nago around in an umbrella form. Because of the ribbons that hold her hair, she is sometimes compared to a rabbit.
During the time of the Dark War, Rachel looked physically younger, closer in appearance to a six year old child. Her outfit was similar to that of her modern day self, with the exception of her dress having a large red cross on the front of her dress and instead wearing white socks and black shoes.
==Personality==


Contrary to her elegant and graceful appearance, Rachel is often overbearing and rude, delivering rapid, yet complex insults. She's righteously proud at times, boasting of her formidable power before she sacrificed it, and is known to bully Gii relentlessly, using him as a conductor for her infrequent bursts of rage. She enjoys teasing [[Ragna the Bloodedge]] and [[Hakumen]], but is known to greatly respect the both of them. Additionally, she is heavily implied to be in love with Ragna.
When using the Tsukuyomi Unit, her eyes take on a glowing amber color.


Despite these characteristics, Rachel is undeniably wise, having knowledge and wisdom that surpasses most of the cast. She put her life in great danger to ensure that the time-loops would be broken and that [[Doomsday]] would be stopped. The people she treats with respect are often the ones who have earned it, such as [[Celica A. Mercury]], Valkenhayn, [[Jubei]], [[Tsubaki Yayoi]], and eventually, [[Noel Vermillion]]. Although she may come off as domineering at times, Rachel cares far more greatly for the world and its people than she will let anyone know.
==Personality==


Even though she is a vampire, Rachel detests partaking in the consumption of blood, and will only do so if absolutely necessary. However, she does enjoy drinking tea and sitting her rose-filled garden with Nago, Gii, and Valkenhayn as company.
{{Quote|Refined, intelligent, and quiet yet arrogant, domineering, and self-centered, she rarely travels without Gii and Nago to accompany her. She treats them roughly; especially Gii, who always seems to be on the brink of death.<ref name="bbcf-jp-rachel"/><ref name="bbcp-en-rachel"/>}}


==Biography==
Contrary to her elegant and graceful appearance, Rachel is often overbearing and rude - delivering rapid, yet complex insults. She is righteously proud at times, boasting of her formidable power, and is known to bully Gii relentlessly, using him as a conductor for her infrequent bursts of rage. She enjoys teasing [[Ragna the Bloodedge]] and [[Hakumen]], but is known to greatly respect the both of them. Additionally, she is heavily implied to be in love with Ragna.


===Scarlet Rose===
Despite these characteristics, Rachel is undeniably wise, having knowledge and wisdom that surpasses most of the cast. She put her life in great danger to ensure that the timeloops would be broken and that [[Doomsday]] would be stopped. The people she treats with respect are often the ones who have earned it, such as [[Celica A. Mercury]], Valkenhayn, [[Jubei]], [[Tsubaki Yayoi]], and eventually, [[Noel Vermillion]]. Although she may come off as domineering at times, Rachel cares far more greatly for the world and its people than she will let anyone know.


After the events of the Dark War, Rachel slept to gain knowledge and regain lost power. She slept for over 50 years until she finally awoke. She called for Valkenhayn, noting that he had grown older since the last time she had seen him, she apologized for giving the [[lycanthrope]] a difficult life but took up his offer to a cup of tea. Valkenhayn dressed her, and told her that [[Relius Clover]] had been seen again, and that Jubei was currently hunting him down.
Even though she is a vampire, Rachel detests partaking in the consumption of blood, and will only do so if absolutely necessary. However, she does enjoy drinking tea and sitting her rose-filled garden with Nago, Gii, and Valkenhayn as company.
Hearing that three children had been adopted by Celica A. Mercury, Rachel travelled to the woods nearby the nun's church. There, she watched as the Celica and the children searched for strawberries - she attracted the attention of the young girl, [[Saya]], but she could only feel Rachel's presence. Once they had left, Rachel whispered her wonders towards what conclusion [[Ragna the Bloodedge]] will bring to her; she then left the woods.


===Endless Waltz===
==Powers & Techniques==
Rachel recalled the first time she met properly met Ragna, and the events that unfolded that night in the first timeline.
Celica A. Mercury's church after briefly saying farewell to Valkenhayn. Arriving at the church a few seconds later, she was met with a fierce rain and the destroyed church that was set ablaze by Terumi; near her feet lay a young, dying Ragna, his arm cut off by Jin. Rachel quickly cast a spell that swallowed Ragna whole, before he had time to scream; inside the hole, Rachel drank his blood, stopping the bleeding and allowing Ragna time to live. Ragna scanned the room and touched the Azure Grimoire that lay in the corner, Rachel soon departed after comments by Nago and Gii, leaving Ragna alive and transported back to the ruins of the church, having saved his life.


===Variable Heart===
As a vampire, Rachel possesses some of their signature abilities, such as being able to regenerate most wounds inflicted upon her and the ability to turn humans into her kind. Her [[Drive]] is '''{{h|Silpheed}}''', which allows her complete control of the wind, being able to conjure slight breezes to deadly storms and whirlwinds. Her Drive is also used to help make her fly through the air. Her Drive is further amplified by both her mastery over sorcery and [[magic]], which she often uses to summons bolts of lightning or teleport, on which there seemed to be little limit on how many she could transfer at one point. Additionally, Rachel possesses the ability [[Slave Red]], which lets her take control of someone's mind with a look, giving them one order they cannot refuse. However, this ability has limits, as it was unable to affect Amane Nishiki.
Witnessing that Ragna, [[Mai Natsume]], [[Kajun Faycott]], [[Taro Sasagae]], [[Shiori Kirihito]], and [[Bell]] were surrounded by the Zero Squadron and [[Meifang Lapislazuli]], Rachel performed a massive teleport, evacuating the group out of their predicament. Ragna's behaviour started to annoy her, so Rachel ordered Valkenhayn to throw him away to any location. She than began talking with Jubei about Bell, confirming that Mai is not an Observer, and that she looks forward to how all their fates unravel. <ref>''BlazBlue: Variable Heart, Chapter 11''</ref>


===Calamity Trigger===
Inside her body lies one of the three Sankishin, Tsukuyomi, which forms an absolute defence that is impenetrable from even the Boundary and Take-Mikazuchi. Instead of conventional weapons, Rachel uses Nago and Gii with their shape-shifting powers to help her fight, and she rarely lets herself take any direct damage.
Rachel teleported to the [[Hanging Gardens]] of the [[13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi]] alongside Nago and Gii. Having briefly contemplated the past, and the last time she visited the area, Rachel teleported in front of Ragna, startling the young man. Typical of her nature, she began to easily belittle the Grim Reaper, taking great delight in his reactions; although this was short lived as she directed him towards his objective. Turning, she greeted Hakumen, although the conversation served as little more than trivial banter between the two as Rachel chastised humanity’s lust for the Azure. As Hakumen left, the young vampire turned her attention elsewhere.
 
Later in the evening, Rachel teleported beside a melee between Ragna and Valkenhayn. Brandishing more insults to Ragna before ordering Nago and Gii to be silent, Rachel ordered Valkenhayn give her an explanation for his appearance in the city, finding herself to be satisfied at his response. Rachel then teleported the group back to the Alucard Castle. There, Rachel and Ragna began to fight, although the former hardly exhausted any energy doing so, and resigned herself to a cup of tea brewed by her servant. She then began to criticise him, calling Ragna weak, but congratulating him on being “marginally” stronger than before. However, she begged him to not give up before teleporting him in front of Kagutsuchi’s [[Novs Orbis Librarium]] branch. Watching from afar, Rachel teleported down to the branch in front of Noel Vermillion, preventing her from advancing any further.
 
Noel was not spared from Rachel’s razor sharp tongue as the vampire easily made a verbal assault on her person, and ultimately prevented her from advancing.
 
Once Noel had saved Ragna from [[Nu-13]], Rachel teleported to the basement of the NOL branch where the [[cauldron]] lay. She told Ragna about Noel’s origins, and how she is now the [[Eye of the Azure]]. After explaining that Noel will inherit the true Azure, which is stronger than Ragna’s, Rachel confessed that she cannot foretell what happen next, but also congratulated the young man on “''performing brilliantly''”. She teleported atop of Kagutsuchi, and activated the Tsukuyomi to prevent the destruction of the city that would be caused by a blast by Take-Mikazuchi. Unfortunately, Rachel arrived too late to the basement as Noel had already accidentally Observed Terumi, causing his existence in the world to become true. Rachel prevented Ragna from attacking the monstrous being, and contacted [[Kokonoe]] shortly after he had left, asking if she had bore witness to what had happened.
 
===Trigger Shift===
Instead of teleporting them outside the ruins of the NOL branch, Rachel swiftly departed from the cauldron, opting to return home instead. She decided to visit the same wooden prison that held Terumi for the short time before he was released. Rachel questioned whether the action of Nine to release Terumi was wise to make. Valkenhayn appeared next to her and the two talked until a buzz rang, signalling that [[Takamagahara]] wanted to speak to the young vampire.
 
===Continuum Shift===
Upon conversing with Takamagahara, Rachel lost her ability to Observe. She returned to the castle with significantly less power, dreading the return of Terumi. She thought about the movement in Takamagahara and was surprised that Terumi returned so soon. When Valkenhayn asks what she intends to do, Rachel replied with "''Nothing.''" Before going to depart again, she asked him if he'll do her a favour. He agreed and she left, heading to [[Sector Seven]]'s confinement chamber. The room radiated magic and in the center of it all, Hakumen sat silently. Rachel demanded he gets up immediately, and he complied once she threatened to fill him with "''animals' leavings and spoiled food''". She informed him of the impending threat and the '[[continuum shift]]', vaguely mentioning that things have already changed. The two agreed to meet in Kagutsuchi.
 
Rachel went on ahead and entered a restaurant whilst waiting. Inside were Ragna and [[Platinum the Trinity]], eating lunch together. Rachel quietly stormed out, furious that Ragna was with someone. She waited outside for a little longer and was questioned by Nago as to why she didn't just transport Hakumen out with her. She replied by claiming that she doesn't owe Hakumen anything and that it would take a lot of energy to transport him out with her. In actuality, it was the weakening of her powers that made it hard to do so. Valkenhayn appeared before her, alerting her that Jin is at the castle, as per her request. As Hakumen still had yet to return, she agreed to go.
 
Rachel laughed at Jin for his weaknesses and over-dependency of Ragna. Striking a nerve, Jin became infuriated by her insults and ignored his injuries long enough to fight her. She easily won and summoned Vakenhayn to dispose of him. Secretly, Rachel had Valkenhayn limit the [[Mucro Algesco: Yukianesa]]'s influence on Jin. Later on, she transported Jin to the NOL branch in Kagutsuchi without alerting him to the limit on his Nox Nyctores.
After waiting at the castle, Rachel went to meet Hakumen. He was surprised by something he saw and demands answers. She replied by telling him that she's not sure what he's talking about, and he comments on Takamagahara moving again. Terumi's return had him worried, but his concerns are cut short by Lambda-11's arrival. Rachel teases and taunts the operator behind the Prime Field Device, causing Kokonoe to order the death of the vampire. Sending Hakumen to go pay Terumi a visit, Rachel dealt with Lambda-11 herself.
 
After winning the brief fight, Rachel teleported to the NOL branch, meeting [[Litchi Faye-Ling]], of whom has joined the NOL. Rachel chastised Litchi's decision, claiming that her hands have been 'dirtied'. She asked about [[Hazama]] and the information that he passed onto Litchi, although the latter refused to reply, leading to a short brawl. Once Rachel won, she gave Litchi some words of advice and departed.
 
On her way, Rachel was stopped by an obscure, mysterious feeling. She felt herself being trapped in a binding circle. [[Izanami]], [[Nine the Phantom]], and Relius Clover appeared before her. Trying as hard as she can, Rachel was unable to free herself and was trapped. She was saved by Ragna after he defeated Terumi not long afterwards. In typical form, Rachel refused to thank him, though she is grateful for the rescue. She told him that the only way to save Noel from herself as [[Mu-12]] is to kill her. Ragna, however, managed to save her without anyone dying, but lost his left arm in the process. The Imperator appeared and threatened Rachel.
At the end, Rachel is seen with Hakumen. He told her that she and Jubei have grown soft and weak, walking away in frustration. Rachel wished for Ragna to be strong, brave and never give up, no matter what the altered future may hold.
 
===Chrono Phantasma===
A month after the Continuum Shift, Rachel found Ragna near the charred site of [[Celica A. Mercury's Church|Celica’s old church]], watching on from the skies. She descended down, and talked to him for the first time since the end of the phenomenon event, but her words ignited the two into a fight that was easily won by the young vampire. She was caught off guard by his question about [[Kushinada’s Lynchpin]], and confessed that she knows little about it - although she told Ragna everything she knows about it, and further divulged into her information on Hades Izanami; the very being itself appeared before them.
 
Phantom’s gravity seed brought Rachel, Nago, and Gii to their knees in front of the Imperator. She helplessly watched as Izanami easily subdued the Grim Reaper, but was freed once she left. Rachel struggled to get to her knees, and greeted [[Taokaka]] as she came to meet them, later finding and greeting [[Torakaka]]. The vampire remembered that the old [[Kaka]] village lay nearby, and asked that Ragna be taken there, but not before warning Ragna that the scars caused by magic can transcend time and space, meaning that he will be affected no matter what phenomena may occur. She promptly teleported away.


The destination for the teleportation was alongside Hakumen, and she invited him for tea. The decline hardly affected the situation as the two discussed the identity of Phantom and how to deal with her. Both of them cast aside their vanity, admitting that the combination of Phantom with her comrades would make her a formidable threat, even for Jubei and themselves. With this, Rachel suggested a plan to follow.
Rachel, however, sacrificed a lot of her power once she gave up her position of Amatsumugi and Onlooker. Her sorcery power deteriorated to the point where she could barely teleport herself.


Ragna’s behaviour had earned Rachel’s scolding as she teleported near him to remind him that his attitude towards innocents was nothing short of disgusting. She quickly teleported away from him before he could apologize. Watching above as Ragna was beaten by [[Kagura Mustuki]], Rachel and [[Amane Nishiki]] began to talk about the people below them. He warned her about getting too involved before assuming his pursuit of [[Carl Clover]]. She would later teleport to the basement of the [[5th Hierarchical City of Ibukido]]’s NOL branch.

Finally, Rachel and Celica were reintroduced. She insulted Ragna as he lay incarcerated in the nearby cell. Noel soon joined them, and Rachel began explaining “The World” and Chrono Phantasma to the two girls. The story went on, accepting all questions until it ended on a sad note. Rachel asked that Kokonoe improve her eavesdropping before promptly teleporting away. She would join the main group for dinner, criticising Ragna for his lack of table etiquette, and complimenting [[Hibiki Kohaku]] for his exceptional cooking skills while also trusting his decision for what tea to prepare for her. Kagura introduced himself to Rachel, his flattery earning her liking.
==Official Profiles==
===''[[BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger]]'' Official Site Profile===
''The head of a clan of bloodsucking vampires, the Alucard. Although she is the "head," she lives alone within the spacious castle she inherited, along with the black cat Nago and the red bat Gii. She hates boredom, so she leaves her castle to search for entertainment.<ref name="bbct-jp-rachel"/>''


When Noel created [[The Realm]], Rachel entered and began to tutor her on how to manage the Power of the Eye, and how the space was even born. When was summoned by Noel’s consciousness, Rachel asked her if she could accept herself, with the answer leaving Rachel more than content - she asked that Noel accept her Azure, although the two were interrupted by Hazama, who had managed to enter The Realm thanks to a hole left by Rachel once she had entered the area. She was left behind when Terumi took her elsewhere in The Realm, but managed to leave and bring Noel’s consciousness back to the normal world.
===''[[BlazBlue: Continuum Shift]]'' Official Site Profile===
''The head of the prestigious vampire clan "Alucard." Although she has carefully watched over the "Closed World" for ages, after the previous incident, the [[Onlooker|Observer]] gave the world the opportunity to move again. Determined to settle matters with her bitter enemy Terumi by her own hands, she begins to move.<ref name="bbcsex-jp-rachel"/>''


The Battle of Ragna the Bloodedge came around the following day, and Rachel watched contently, placing actual bets with Celica on who would win each round. She complemented Kagura on his ability to pull together such an event, and placed a bet on [[Bullet]] winning the next match. She wouldn’t anticipate that [[Azrael]] would be her replacement opponent. She prevented Kagura from switching in with Ragna during his beating by the Genocider, and threw Gii in front of Azrael’s aimed fist towards Celica. Rachel silently congratulated Ragna on his ability to control the Azure Grimoire, and prevent it from eroding his soul any further. In the medical bay, Celica thanked Rachel for stopping Azrael’s assault on her, but the vampire’s sharp tongue remained straight and true. The revelation from Ragna that he would stop using the Azure Grimoire caused her to invite them to the cauldron in Ibukido as long as they brought Noel with them.
===''[[BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma]]'' Official Site Profile===
''Rachel Alucard, the [[Onlooker]] of the world, the wielder of the Sankishin "Tsukuyomi Unit," and a vampire said to have lived thousands of years. The [[Onlooker]] beings to move again in order to stop a plan involving the highest official in the NOL, the "Imperator."<ref name="bbcp-jp-rachel"/>''


At the cauldron, Ragna, Celica, and Noel arrived. She placed additional protection on Noel to prevent more interference with her conscious from the nearby caskets, explaining that their thoughts were interfering with Noel’s thoughts. Pleased with Noel’s dedication, Rachel told Ragna that he was to be sent back in time to the first timeline so that he could solidify the timeline, although Noel’s Observation would be put at its pace, and Celica’s memory would be strained. Finally, Rachel placed the Tsukuyomi Unit upon him so that he could safely arrive in the past. They succeeded in sending him back, but Rachel lost her status as an Observer, instead becoming an Onlooker without any magical power. This event became known as the Time for Decision, an important event that cost Rachel the majority of her remaining power.

;Story
''Once an [[Onlooker|Observer]] of the world, and the current head of the Alucard family. Although she lost most of her power from continuously interfering with the world, she once again begins to move in order to stop the Imperator's conspiracy. She searches for "Ragna," who should be somewhere in this world.<ref name="bbcf-jp-rachel-story"/>''


A few hours later, Ragna returned from his journey to the past, his memory scrambled. Rachel accepted his thanks for sending him back into the past, but Rachel soon realised how great a sacrifice she had made. Amane arrived a short while later as he had told Valkenhayn about Rachel’s location, leaving once the latter man had arrived. She thought kindly of Amane’s guidance, and asked that Valkenhayn escort her back to the Castle.
;Personality
''Refined, intelligent, and quiet yet arrogant, domineering, and self-centered, she rarely travels without Gii and Nago to accompany her. She treats them roughly; especially Gii, who always seems to be on the brink of death.<ref name="bbcf-jp-rachel"/><ref name="bbcp-en-rachel"/>''


Intruding in Kagura’s office, she and Valkenhayn introduced themselves while also offering advice for the group to follow. Rachel reminded them all that [[Tenjo Amanohokosaka]] had intended to use the Lynchpin as a last resort method in a time when Celica wasn’t around, arguing that another method is possible with the Nox Nyctores - [[Phoenix: Rettenjou]]. When the main group had left, Kokonoe told Rachel and Kagura that Izanami’s intervention has stopped, with Rachel further confirming that the Takamagahara System had been demolished. She remained in the room even once [[Izayoi]] and Jin had entered.

;Rachel Alucard
Rachel directed Jin and Hakumen to cut the base of the [[Monolith]] - they succeeded. She further ordered Valkenhayn to assist [[Bang Shishigami]] with his battle against Relius, soon ordering that Bang hammer Rettenjou into the Lynchpin (thanks to Tager teleporting both parties above the Monolith) which subsequently fell into the tower. Rachel’s final orders were towards Ragna, asking that he activate the Azure Grimoire and confront the Take-Mikazuchi. Amaterasu was summoned in the world thanks to Doomsday, but Rachel prevented any damage being done upon it by using the Tsukuyomi; both the Tsukuyomi and the Embryo lay floating above the ruins of Ibukido. Izanami and Rachel discussed their ideals above the sky, with Rachel telling her that she will give life to the former Imperator, while the latter wished to give her death.
 
Rachel caught [[Tsubaki Yayoi]] punching a wall by her lonesome, and gave her some advice. She asked that if she was to find Ragna, that she should kill him. Should Tsubaki fail, and Ragna expire of his own accord, Rachel implored that Tsubaki kill her with the Immortal Breaker in order to eradicate the evil within Ragna.

BlazBlue: The Wheel of Fortune

Rachel Alucard (レイチェル＝アルカード) is a vampire, former Onlooker, and head of the Alucard Clan of vampires. She is the daughter of Clavis Alucard, and watches over the world from the Alucard Castle alongside her butler Valkenhayn R. Hellsing. Rachel wields the Sankishin: Tsukuyomi Unit, and has no life-force value. She is constantly followed by her familiars - Nago and Gii.

Rachel is one of the original twelve characters who debuted in BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger. She was revealed for BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War on February 1st, 2021.

Appearance

Rachel is a petite girl with pale skin, red eyes, and long blonde hair tied into twin tails with black ribbons, which resemble rabbit ears when done up. Despite looking like a young girl, due to being a vampire, Rachel is much older than she appears.

She wears a black knee-length gothic-themed dress with bell sleeves and a matching skirt. Over this she wears a shawl in the same color as her dress. A large red ribbon sits in the front of the dress with white frills under both the skirt and the sleeves. On top of the skirt are large red wings which can extend and contract according to Rachel's will. Underneath the dress, Rachel wears a sleeveless white ruffled shirt, a matching set of white bloomers and a pair of large, black, knee high, heel-less platform boots with red laces. The dress has a prominent cross motif with red crosses with a white outline appearing on several parts, specifically adorning the hem of the sleeves, the front of the skirt and on the shawl.

During the time of the Dark War, Rachel looked physically younger, closer in appearance to a six year old child. Her outfit was similar to that of her modern day self, with the exception of her dress having a large red cross on the front of her dress and instead wearing white socks and black shoes.

When using the Tsukuyomi Unit, her eyes take on a glowing amber color.

Personality

Refined, intelligent, and quiet yet arrogant, domineering, and self-centered, she rarely travels without Gii and Nago to accompany her. She treats them roughly; especially Gii, who always seems to be on the brink of death.[3][4]

Contrary to her elegant and graceful appearance, Rachel is often overbearing and rude - delivering rapid, yet complex insults. She is righteously proud at times, boasting of her formidable power, and is known to bully Gii relentlessly, using him as a conductor for her infrequent bursts of rage. She enjoys teasing Ragna the Bloodedge and Hakumen, but is known to greatly respect the both of them. Additionally, she is heavily implied to be in love with Ragna.

Despite these characteristics, Rachel is undeniably wise, having knowledge and wisdom that surpasses most of the cast. She put her life in great danger to ensure that the timeloops would be broken and that Doomsday would be stopped. The people she treats with respect are often the ones who have earned it, such as Celica A. Mercury, Valkenhayn, Jubei, Tsubaki Yayoi, and eventually, Noel Vermillion. Although she may come off as domineering at times, Rachel cares far more greatly for the world and its people than she will let anyone know.

Even though she is a vampire, Rachel detests partaking in the consumption of blood, and will only do so if absolutely necessary. However, she does enjoy drinking tea and sitting her rose-filled garden with Nago, Gii, and Valkenhayn as company.

Powers & Techniques

As a vampire, Rachel possesses some of their signature abilities, such as being able to regenerate most wounds inflicted upon her and the ability to turn humans into her kind. Her Drive is Silpheed, which allows her complete control of the wind, being able to conjure slight breezes to deadly storms and whirlwinds. Her Drive is also used to help make her fly through the air. Her Drive is further amplified by both her mastery over sorcery and magic, which she often uses to summons bolts of lightning or teleport, on which there seemed to be little limit on how many she could transfer at one point. Additionally, Rachel possesses the ability Slave Red, which lets her take control of someone's mind with a look, giving them one order they cannot refuse. However, this ability has limits, as it was unable to affect Amane Nishiki.

Inside her body lies one of the three Sankishin, Tsukuyomi, which forms an absolute defence that is impenetrable from even the Boundary and Take-Mikazuchi. Instead of conventional weapons, Rachel uses Nago and Gii with their shape-shifting powers to help her fight, and she rarely lets herself take any direct damage.

Rachel, however, sacrificed a lot of her power once she gave up her position of Amatsumugi and Onlooker. Her sorcery power deteriorated to the point where she could barely teleport herself.

Official Profiles

BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger Official Site Profile

The head of a clan of bloodsucking vampires, the Alucard. Although she is the "head," she lives alone within the spacious castle she inherited, along with the black cat Nago and the red bat Gii. She hates boredom, so she leaves her castle to search for entertainment.[5]

BlazBlue: Continuum Shift Official Site Profile

The head of the prestigious vampire clan "Alucard." Although she has carefully watched over the "Closed World" for ages, after the previous incident, the Observer gave the world the opportunity to move again. Determined to settle matters with her bitter enemy Terumi by her own hands, she begins to move.[6]

BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Official Site Profile

Rachel Alucard, the Onlooker of the world, the wielder of the Sankishin "Tsukuyomi Unit," and a vampire said to have lived thousands of years. The Onlooker beings to move again in order to stop a plan involving the highest official in the NOL, the "Imperator."[7]

BlazBlue: Central Fiction Official Site Profile

Story

Once an Observer of the world, and the current head of the Alucard family. Although she lost most of her power from continuously interfering with the world, she once again begins to move in order to stop the Imperator's conspiracy. She searches for "Ragna," who should be somewhere in this world.[8]

Personality

Refined, intelligent, and quiet yet arrogant, domineering, and self-centered, she rarely travels without Gii and Nago to accompany her. She treats them roughly; especially Gii, who always seems to be on the brink of death.[3][4]

BlazBlue: Central Fiction Library Entry

Rachel Alucard

Head of the Vampire clan, 'Alucard.'

At one time she oversaw the Boundary with the Takamagahara System. She houses one of the Sankishin, the Tsukuyomi Unit, within her, and is an observer that has lived for millennia.

She knew of Ragna from when he was young, and presented him with the opportunity to wield the Azure Grimoire. She is also the one who gave Jin the Susano'o Unit.

She is refined and wise, and carries herself with an aura of elegance. But contrary to her appearance, she's quite free spirited, arrogant, and domineering at times. It is not uncommon to see her vilify anything that does not suit her tastes. She seldom lifts a finger to do anything, and relies on her familiars, Nago and Gii, to do her bidding.

While being a key player in our world, she is forbidden to intervene in its course of events. Thus, it has been her fate to silently observe history repeat itself over and over. But when Noel triggered change to occur once more in the world, Rachel devises a plan to take down her arch nemesis, Terumi, once and for all. She rescues Hakumen, and keep him under her domain.

Rachel is no stranger to the highest ranking member of the NOL, the Imperator. To put an end to the Imperator's scheme, she walks on stage, going from Observer to actor.

As one of the Chrono Phantasma, Rachel orders Tsubaki to use the Immortal Breaker to destroy her, should Ragna died without being defeated by Jin or Tsubaki. That it was the only way for evil to be eradicated from this world forever.

It is still not known what she meant... [9]

BlazBlue: Variable Heart Glossary

Rachel Alucard

When asking who is the strongest vampire in this world, it would be the “Crimson Vampire”. Or that is what the note that Professor Kokonoe wrote said that I saw before.
