Personal history
Born to Arthur van Helsing and Rosamunde Vordenburg.
Albert was born into the Guild and raised as a Hunter. Arthur being a Grand Magister of the Guild, had very high exportation of his sons, thus was very strict with Albtert's and his brother Aaron's training. Especially when Albert's the eldest, and Arthur expected him to one day inherit the family duty and legacy.
However, Albert had very little interest in joining the Guild. Being a teenager, his eyes were drawn towards the far more colourful world outside the walls of Castle Vetenburg. Also, seeing his own father being too preoccupied with his duty to spend time with his family, Albert did not want to follow his example.
So at the age of 17, Albert simply ran away. Throughout the years, he spent a lot of time travelling, both in human and Twilight Realms. He even ventured far north into Tærakúynal, land of the Lothefyn, the snow elves. There he acquired an egg which hatched an ice dragon, who Albert kept as a pet and companion.
At the age of 23, Albert settled down from his travelling and went to a college for a proper education. Then he met Maria Zolotovsky a coworker from a local grocery store, they quickly fell in love and got married three years later.
Albert having very limited skill other than his Hunter training, had to take multiple jobs to support his family. But everything paid off when Maria gave birth to their sons. Albert was so eager to share the news after the birth of his second son, that he contacted his brother Aaron in secret. However, instead of Aaron, his father showed up. Albert was shocked because that contact code was arranged privately with his brother before he left the Guild, and no one else should know. On the other hand, however, Arthur did not blame Albert for abandoning his family and duty. He was genuine happy with the birth of his grandsons, and simply invited Albert back to have a look at the Castle, which Albert accepted.
Back at the Castle Vetenburg, Albert met many old friends, but never saw his brother. When being asked where Aaron was, Arthur simply took his eldest son to the castle's crypt, there Albert found in shock the name Aaron van Helsing on one of the ash urns.
Arthur explained that after Albert left the Guild, Aaron took over his duty. But due to him being younger and inexperienced, he encountered a notorious mercenary of the Red Legion, and was killed in the clash. The older van Helsing signed that the 'van Helsing curse' had fianlly caught up with them. Only one son may survive in every generation (but daughters will live and they themselves sired many sidelines of the van Helsings). Arthur was hoping that Albert running away might save the lives of both his brother and himself, that's why he never came o search for Albert.
Albert being overtaken by rage and regrets, went to seek out his brother's killer. He was outmatched, but luckily Arthur found him in time and saved his life. Back at Castle Vetenburg, Albert reflected his life and realised that he had been running all his life, and now his family need him the most, it was time to take over his duty, it was time to become a van Helsing.
Albert returned home trying to explain everything to Maria, but found in horror that his house had been torn down from inside. Luckily, Maria the boys were not at home thus no one was hurt. In fear for their safety, Albert took Maria and their sons back to Castle Vetenburg. Maria had a hard time taking everything in, but still tried to support her husband and children.
Albert named his second son Aaron in memory of his brother. Together they lived several years in the castle, but eventually Maria couldn't stand this life-style any more. So she possessed a divorce, and Albert agreed and allowed Maria to take the boys as well, for their safety and better interest.
