Source [[1]] Born a stalwarts man, Alexander Anderson joined the Tottenham Mandem crime family as an assassin in Glasgow, Scotland at the age of 18 in 1975. Becoming disillusioned by 23, he cut all ties with the mob, along with 50 kilos of heroin. Now a target for both the Scottish police and his old crew, he skipped town, hiding out in what can only be described as a village while posing as a priest. A local nun named Kris gave him the opportunity to work at the local parish, an opportunity Anderson gladly took hoping he could live out the rest of his days atoning for his sins. Fate had other plans. A man named Flanders, Anderson's ex-partner and an esteemed member of TMD, came across his parish within a year of his disappearance. Waiting for him to leave the parish, he and his underlings committed numerous atrocities against Kris, before ordering a shocked Anderson to return the drugs or have Kris pay the first half of the price. Utilizing his Regenerator powers for the first time, he easily overpowered the gangsters before setting his sights on the head of his old organization. After some digging, he found a strange answer, the ghost of a nazi. Exercising the demon by the tip of a bayonet, he once again decided to settle down in a Sicilian orphanage, where he served as a recently-ordained Catholic priest, tutoring his orphans, including a young Enrico Maxwell for 8 years. At 18, Maxwell himself became a priest within the Vatican's very own Section XIII, also known as Iscariot; a section of Catholic forces that officially does not exist that is dedicated to the annihilation of the unholy creatures of the night. Being well-aware of his father-figure's Regenerator powers and rising terrifyingly quickly of Iscariot's ranks, a 22 year old Maxwell placed Anderson, a 37 year old priest with an unaging body, at the head of their elite forces for his now-legendary zeal and trained powers. He was among the few to survive direct combat with Alucard, each deeming the other their rival. This lead to Alucard requesting the Jackal's development, and Anderson impaling his own heart with Helena's Nail in one final attempt to bring him down during the London firebombing of the single-day conflict of World War Three, though he would not survive this fight.

Variant: Monster of God Alexander

While Anderson is impaled by Helena's Nail, his AC becomes 17, his walking speed becomes 45 ft., has an offset PECR of 19, and he gains the following:

Endless Regeneration. Anderson regains 5 (2d4) hit points at the beginning of each of his turns, and he can not be killed instantly.

Pierced Heart. A creature may attempt to remove Helena's Nail as an action while grappling Anderson, making a DC 21 Strength (Athletics) check. On a success, Anderson loses the effects of this variant, becomes incapacitated, and dies at the end of his next turn (6 seconds). On a failure, Anderson can immediately take the Attack action against the creature as a reaction.

Holy Touch. Anderson's melee attacks deal an additional 3d10 radiant damage to Aberrations, Fiends, Undead, and any other unholy creatures.

Bayonet. Melee or Ranged Weapon Attack: +13 to hit, reach 15 ft. or range 30/60 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d6 + 5) slashing damage and 7 (2d6) radiant damage.

Vine Wrap. One creature within 15 ft. must succeed on a DC 21 Strength saving throw or become restrained for 1 minute. They may retry this saving throw at the end of each of their turns.

Vine Armor. Anderson's AC becomes 24 until the beginning of his next turn. Anderson can use this action as a bonus action or as a reaction to being targeted by an attack, increasing his AC to 21.
