It is suggested that the Hellsing Organization was founded by Abraham Van Helsing shortly after the events of Bram Stoker's novel as a response to the threat posed by vampires after his encounter with Dracula. The purpose of the Hellsing Organization is to end all earthly activity of non-human creatures. It is traditionally headed by Abraham's descendants, as they are the only ones who can control Alucard, "the fruit of the Hellsing family's labors," whom they performed many experiments upon, building him into the ultimate undead for use in battle against other undead. In 1944, Arthur Hellsing, then the director of the organization, sent Alucard and a 14-year-old Walter C. Dornez to halt the attempts by Millennium to create an artificial vampire force that could help the Nazis win World War II. This they succeeded in doing, although they failed to kill the key members of Millennium. After WWII, it was decided that Alucard was too powerful, too potentially dangerous to be used as a weapon, and was locked away in the basement of the Hellsing mansion. Upon Arthur's death, his daughter, Integral Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing, became the director of the organization. Her uncle, Richard Hellsing, attempted to kill her and take the headship of the organization for himself, but was defeated by Alucard, whom Integra accidentally released from a 20-year internment, on instructions from her father. Integra herself fired the bullet that killed Richard. 10 years have passed since Integra took control of Hellsing.
