The daughter of Vlad Tepes, aka Dracula, Mina Tepes is the ruler of all vampires. Mina Tepes first met the co-protagonist Akira when he was a child. As a vampire, Mina never ages, and as such her body usually resembles that of a prepubescent girl though her body is capable of transforming into an adult woman's. She appears at first very haughty and self-indulging, but is in truth very protective of her fellow vampires that she rules over. She will do almost anything to protect their future, even if it means risking her own life. Despite her occasionally harsh treatment of Akira, she cares deeply for him and truly loves him in the best way that she can manage, considering her stature in the vampire world.
