[Alucard or Adrian. He found himself preferring the latter, if only for the fact it was a real name and not an alias. It would feel strange to call him something untruthful. Did not people generally favor their own given name, or was there purpose behind the alias as well?
Before Dorian could ask after the meaning of 'Alucard', that bit of trivia came next. He turned a puzzled look back in time to catch the grin, and then he forced his gaze ahead, focus on the path they walked.]

[Easy to fall to flirtation, to flatter his own ego as he often did, than meet those gold eyes now. A dangerous game to play with the creature who'd pinned him to the wall and ripped through his skin; too bad he often went against what was best for himself. A self-destructive tendency, perhaps. He didn't analyze it.]
But, no. It isn't 'Greek' - I come from a world called Thedas, likely very different from your own. The name is Tevinter. As for its historical roots, I honestly couldn't say. Though I do like that tale of Doros.
