History
The Order of the Van Helsings
They were formed long ago after Cain brought the brood into Egypt during the reign of Ramses II, during the 13th Century BCE. All in their path were murdered, until someone learned that driving a wooden stake through the heart and decapitation would kill the vampires. (I, Vampire v1 #10) Cain and his bride, Lilith, had inadvertently formed them by way of Lilith's first change to a monstrous entity, the survivors of the massacre joining 'the destroyers', a cult of vampire 'murderers'. (I, Vampire v1 #16) The Order have been very influential throughout history, including the invention of napalm. (I, Vampire v1 #10)
After assembling a new contingent of general vampires including Tig, Charles Thompson, and the vampire dog Mishkin, Andrew attacked Castle Van Helsing, easily tearing through their defenses and meeting with their second-in-command before being brought face to face with the newly resurrected and enhanced Van Helsing. Making their way past the leadership, they made their way to the Egyptian Book of the Dead, which they used to go into the pocket dimension that housed the Armory of all weapons known to kill vampires. (I, Vampire v1 #15) Finding the brick from the top of the Tower of Babel that touched Heaven and turning the Keeper of the books in the area, the group accidentally awakened a contingent of living statues in the armory, along with Van Helsing, and summarily defeated and murdered them all with the help of their own skills and the brick itself, possibly eradicating the Order in the process. (I, Vampire v1 #16)
