ABRAHAM WHISTLER
Originating from Earth-26320, Abraham Whistler was once a happily married man before his family became a target for a sadistic vampire, who cruelly drained the life blood of his wife and daughters before his eyes, moving onto torturing Abraham and severely injuring him, before the now satisfied vampire swiftly disappeared into the night.
Eventually recovering from his wounds, Abraham would dedicate his life to hunting down vampires as he willingly shut himself off from the world and learned everything he could about their culture and customs.
Several years later, Abraham would encounter a young Eric Brooks on the streets of New York (almost mistaking him for a traditional vampire as he quickly uncovered Eric's unique birth as a Daywalker who happened to possess all of the vampire strengths with none of their weaknesses beyond an insatiable bloodlust, looking convincingly human otherwise).
Taking Eric under his wing, Abraham taught the young man everything he knew about vampire hunting and how to safely utilize his new powers, creating a serum which helped to sate Eric's uncontrollable bloodlust, choosing to go by the name of Blade from then on as his urban legend reputation among the vampire race, grew with each passing year.
However, Abraham would eventually be diagnosed with lung cancer after years of a bad smoking habit and secretly began to form a team of vampire hunters behind Blade's back, determined to ensure that he would never be alone in his crusade to wipe out all vampires.
Fending off an assault by the vampire lord, Deacon Frost and his goons as he gave then-infected vampire victim Karen Jenson enough time to escape with a cure to both her and Blade's ailment, Abraham was bitten by Frost and threatened with being turned into a vampire himself in order to lure Blade out for his own ends.
Being found not too long afterward by Blade at their destroyed warehouse lair, Abraham pleaded for Blade to go and stop Deacon Frost's plans, attempting to commit suicide in order to escape from a worse fate as Blade slowly walked away.
This would unfortunately turn out to be in vain for Abraham however as he survived the self-inflicted gun shot and was kidnapped by the forces of the vampire overlord, Eli Damaskinos, who saw Abraham as a tool that could prove useful against Blade, keeping him as a tortured prisoner that had now been turned into the very thing he despised.
Luckily, Abraham would be found alive and saved by his young protege, Blade, after two years of dedicated searching (brought back to their new safehouse in New York's docks as a new, more refined cure created by Karen Jenson was administered to eradicate Abraham's vampirism and make him a mortal human once more with the lung cancer wiped from his system as a byproduct of his time as a vampire).
Gradually reforging a trusting relationship with Blade, Abraham ultimately proved himself during the events of the Reaper Strain vampire outbreak and proved that this old man could still learn new tricks.
Unfortunately, this would not last for too long as Blade recklessly killed several humans who were loyal to an offshoot group of vampires, neglecting to ensure in his overconfident mindset that they were truly vampires.
Knowing that the two of them had now opened up the wasp's nest with attracting too much attention, Abraham knew it was only a matter of time before their base of operations was discovered by the local human authorities.
With the sudden arrival of the FBI who stormed upon their safehouse and not wanting decades of intel on vampires to fall into the wrong hands, Abraham nobly sacrificed himself once more and afforded Blade enough time to escape, not living to see what would become of his protege and his time among the Nightstalkers as they wiped out the vampires for good on Earth-26320 with the defeat of Dracula himself.
But things are not always as they seem, as a strange dimensional portal formed beneath Abraham and pulled him safely to a different universe just before the explosives entirely destroyed the safehouse.
Now finding himself on Earth-7150 and discovering that his cure had only partially gotten rid of his vampirism, Abraham now found himself able to move about and react like someone in their physical prime despite still being old and mortal.
Suddenly encountering a different version of Blade who had never even met him before (but had still gone on to be a vampire hunter regardless in this strange timeline), Abraham was about to ask this Blade a whole host of questions about where he was, before the two were inexplicably attacked by robotic clowns, which eventually managed to abduct Blade as he was teleported away somewhere else, with only a maniacal laugh heard by Abraham as he was separated from Blade again as quickly as he had been reunited.
Determined to save this version of Blade no matter what, Abraham had his attention drawn to a unfamiliar voice as he turned around to see two mysterious men whom claimed to be allies of this world's Blade, calling themselves Hannibal King and Frank Drake respectively...
