ORIGIN OF JOURNEY
Alucard, occasionally referred to as E45e and FoodCritic1, started his trip in 2019 when Micderper recruited him into the Templars on Club Penguin Online. He left after three months because, at first, he found it difficult to grasp the complexity of army operations. However, when COVID-19 spread worldwide, he became intensely passionate about knowing more about armies, which finally brought him back into the community. He started the first generation of Dark Vikings with fellow member Trapant and associate Krosive in March 2020. Unfortunately, this first formation, which lasted only two weeks, faltered due to a mix of incompetence and lack of general expertise. As a result, he decided to join the Ice Warriors.
In 2020, Alucard coincided with the Ice Warriors, working strongly with his friend Krosive and quickly ascending through the ranks by leading voice chats and participating in tournaments such as March Madness 2020, receiving a promotion to 5th-in-Command by December. Seeking fresh obstacles, he quickly departed IW and rejoined the Templars as HCOM alongside Krosive. Shortly after, he recreated the Dark Vikings, founding its second generation with Krosive, Pink_Cloud_8, and Thunder222 as a possession under the Templars, participating in confrontations in the Red Dawn Alliance during World War VIII against the Western Bloc. This era, extending nearly two months, saw tensions escalate with their erstwhile allies, the Trojans, due to authority conflicts. Despite the army eventually shutting down from declining interest, Alucard’s services amid its hardships gained him a position in the Dark Vikings’ Hall of Fame.

Later Successes
During his rise as a commander, Alucard attempted to create a new army called Saber Squid, though the project lasted only a few weeks before he returned to the Ice Warriors. In early February 2022, after a brief hiatus from the army community, he took on several responsibilities, including serving as the News Centre Co-Head and moderating their Minecraft server. On his 18th birthday, his dedication earned him a promotion to 3rd-in-Command, followed shortly by a promotion to Head Moderator of the Minecraft server. However, just two weeks later, after a major falling-out with certain leaders and HCOM members, he resigned once more to lead the Dark Vikings, ushering in its third generation, which was by far the most successful and prominent generation of DV.
In December 2022, Alucard joined the Army of Club Penguin as an HCOM, but he saw his tenure interrupted after four months of service. His next step came in May 2023 when he transitioned to the People’s Imperial Confederation as a Third-in-Command. During a conflict known as the Bloodbath Barrage, PIC clashed with the Dark Vikings under the Sapphire Concordat, which included armies like Help Force, Special Weapons and Tactics, ACP, Napalm Corps, and Templars. This eventually escalated into a larger confrontation with the Blue Sunset Alliance, which comprised the Elite Guardians, Water Vikings, and Rebel Penguin Federation, triggering World War IX. Alucard’s influence during this period became increasingly evident as he played a key role in these escalating conflicts.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Throughout his broadened army career, Alucard gathered an impressive list of amazing achievements that exhibited his exceptional leadership and dedication. Alucard’s shift to the People’s Imperial Confederation symbolized a zenith in his career. In honor of his vital involvement during the Bloodbath Barrage and subsequent conflicts, he was promoted to Leader In Training on June 23, 2023, and then promptly ascended to become the 32nd Commander-in-Chief on July 11, 2023, in preparation for the Beach Brawl III tournament. Under his direction, PIC earned a tremendous win in the tournament—an achievement marked by the awarding of a brand-new Medal of Vitality.

His leadership not only enabled PIC to prevail in direct battles with tough opponents such as SWAT, the Friendly Gamers, and even the Penguins of Madagascar but also contributed to winning the S/M Army New Year’s Bonanza Championship. Further establishing his reputation, he secured the Best S/M Army Leader award for the 2023 Winter Awards, and his achievements include both Paragon and Medal of Honor distinctions, as well as inclusion into the Congress of Soviets and the Hall of Fame as a PIC Legend alongside Sweater and Hidcre. Each milestone in Alucard’s path demonstrates how he has shown steadfast dedication and strategic acumen and made a significant impact on every company he has engaged with.

Club Penguin Armies reached out to Alucard to engage in his most memorable moments.
What has been the most memorable moment of your career in the Club Penguin Army community, and why does it stand out to you?
Definitely winning Beach Brawl 3 in 2023, the combined effort and teamwork from everyone in the army and leadership was just amazing, really set in motion how great our 23/24 run would be. I still remember being extremely nervous and anxious in the final waiting for the results to be announced 😭.
As a leader in multiple armies, what has been the biggest challenge you’ve faced in leadership, and how did you overcome it?
For me it was adaptability, taking the time getting to know about the armies history and getting into the culture. Foreign relations were also extremly hard to grasp at first but I’ve definitely grown a lot mentally since my time leading in armies.
Looking back at your evolution within the community, how would you say you’ve changed personally and professionally throughout your Army career?
Being in armies helped me mature a lot, learning different aspects about life and seeing how many different cultures in the world are in this community, learning things I never would’ve otherwise known about. Armies also taught me a lot about management and how to adapt in certain situations.
What has been the most challenging decision you’ve had to make as a leader, and how did you navigate the situation?
A close friend of the leadership had been caught speaking with underage members within the greater army community. It definitely hurt a lot learning about the things they had been saying but ultimately, the safety of the community always comes first and we publicly removed them from the army.
What do you see as the future of the Army community, and how do you think emerging leaders can contribute to its growth and sustainability?
It’s very unpredictable, I’ve been incredibly vocal with my thoughts on the future of the community. I can see it going one of two ways, either the army community sustains itself and we see more and more armies popping up with greater potential OR the community slowly fades into obscurity and inevitably closes.
A foe like Alucard comes once in a lifetime. His milestones and strategic brilliance have propelled his main army, PIC, to unparalleled heights in 2023. He has consistently demonstrated an ability to rise through the ranks and leave a lasting impact. His achievements, whether in managerial positions or community engagement, have reinforced his reputation as one of the most indispensable and influential figures in the army landscape. What do you think of his marksmanship? What more do you think Alucard will accomplish? We would love to hear your thoughts.
