Blade
Half-human and half-vampire, Blade is feared by full-blooded vampires as the Daywalker - one with vampire strength and skills but the ability to stand sunlight.
His quest to rid the world of vampires makes him a driven man, but that doesn't mean he hasn't got time for style: he's one cool character with long leather coat, spiffy motorbike and shiny samurai sword.
Blade was created when a vampire bit his mother as he lay in the womb. Saved by mentor Whistler as a child, Blade fights to quell his vampire hunger, and revenge his mother, but doesn't always succeed. Points for trying, though.
Originally a Marvel comic, Blade was adapted into a film starrring Wesley Snipes in 1998, followed by a sequel in 2002. Cue much bloody high-octane excitement.
