10 Most Powerful Characters Killed By Blade
2. Deacon Frost
Deacon Frost was a scientist attempting to uncover the key to immortality. In 1863, he kidnapped a young woman named Ilsa to inject her with the blood of a recently killed vampire. But Frost was injected with the blood instead and found that anyone he turned into a vampire would create a doppelganger. Each doppelganger could then create an infinite number of doppelgangers by biting them. And he could mentally control them all.
In 1929, Vanessa Brooks was having issues with her delivery and a doctor was called. The doctor, Deacon frost, feasted on Vanessa, killing her, and passed his powers onto the child, Eric. He was driven away before being able to kill the baby by the Ladies of Madame Vanity’s brothel and they raised the boy. He grew to become the vampire hunter Blade.
Though they initially distrusted each other, Blade teamed up with future fellow Nightstalker Hannibal King, whom Frost had also turned into a vampire. They battled an army of Frost’s men and thought they had him cornered but it turned out to be a doppelganger. This false Frost was trying to unseat Dracula as the Lord of the Vampires but failed. In Tomb of Dracula #4, The true Frost arrived at what he thought was a summons from the vampire lord only to be staked by Blade.
