Valhein

The Demon Hunter

"Be very very quiet, I'm hunting demons!" Valhein (formerly Van Helsing) is one of the first 25 Heroes in the game Arena of Valor.

Lore
"Mankind's only hope during the century-long vampire war."

Valhein was not born a famous vampire hunter. A pious man, he did not believe in superstitions or folklore. This changed while traveling to Romania to claim an inheritance left for him. The journey robbed Valhein of the possibility of a normal life. Helpless and horrified, Valhein could do nothing as Dracula abducted and murdered his wife. His world shattered, Valhein swore vengeance upon the nosferatu and his entire species!

"I hereby swear in the name of God that I shall defeat all the dark powers lurking within the shadows. I will battle the vampire scourge until my last breath!" A man possessed, this solemn vow became his singular driving force.

Valhein sought out vampires wherever they nested, and one by one he slew each and every one of them. When the last had crumbled to dust at his feet, Valhein felt a sudden and certain emptiness. An ethereal voice called out to him "You have dared to do what few mortals in history could have done. You have fought back against the creatures of night and triumphed. Yet darkness takes on many forms, vampires were but one of many." As the voice spoke, Valhein felt himself renewed. It continued, "Please lend aid, there are other terrors, demons which only you are capable of vanquishing."

Valhein steeled himself for his new vigil, as a demon hunter.
