{{Character | '''Cardinal Dracula''' was a villainous, possibly vampiric [[Mind Flayer]]. He existed as a real being in at least [[Cardinal Dracula's Universe|one universe]] (simultaneously being its counterpart for [[Dracula]] and for {{w|Cardinal Richelieu|Cardinal Richelieu}}), and as a fictional being in [[Earth-44|at least one other]]. | ||
== Description == | |||
=== Physical appearance === | |||
Cardinal Dracula, when in his human form, was a tall, pale man in gilded red cardinal's robes. He was described as having “a sharp, aquiline nose and a high brow”. However, he could also shapeshift, notably transforming into mist, or, using the [[Reliquary of Baphomet]], into a [[Dragon]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Preludes and Distractions (short story)|Preludes and Distractions]]'') | |||
=== Powers and abilities === | |||
In addition to the aforementioned shapeshifting, he seemed to possess hypnotic abilities, and could sense people's true identities. His mouth contained a pair of fangs with which he could drink blood and turn others into vampires. He was nearly invincible, but could be harmed by a wooden stake through the heart; even then, though, he could recover by assuming the form of a dragon. Crosses could also harm him. In addition, he was an extremely skilled swordsman, possibly aided by unlimited stamina. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Preludes and Distractions (short story)|Preludes and Distractions]]'') | |||
== Biography == | |||
=== Cardinal Dracula's Universe === | |||
Cardinal Dracula lived in the [[France]] of [[Cardinal Dracula's Universe|one universe]], where he was a constant foe of the Three Musketeers and [[Jenny Everywhere#The fifth musketeer|Jenny Everywhere]]. He dwelled in the [[Cathedral of Cardinal Dracula]], and, in the words of Athos, "corrupted church and state" and "feasted upon the blood of innocents". He hoped to rule the world, with Jenny as his bride.{{Character | |||
