Akasha Bloodriver is the biological mother of Moka Akashiya and serves as the leader of the Three Dark Lords. She is a formidable Shinso Vampire. Akasha has three step-daughters: Kokoa, Kalua, and Akua Shuzen. Her appearance closely mirrors that of Outer Moka. Tohofuhai, the second Dark Lord, is a close friend of Akasha and describes her as a strong yet sorrowful woman who bore a heavy burden. Despite her kindness and gentleness, Akasha is one of the true ancestors of the Vampire race and managed to defeat the most powerful Vampire Lord of her time, thereby becoming a Dark Lord and the leader of the three. However, when she defeated the Vampire Lord Alucard, her blood synchronized with his during the sealing process, meaning that if Akasha unleashed her full power, it could cause Alucard to awaken once more.
This created additional challenges for her when she gave birth to Moka. Because Moka was on the verge of death at birth, Akasha injected much of her blood into Moka to keep her alive. Consequently, Moka also possesses the "Shinso Blood" and could potentially awaken Alucard from his slumber. After Moka discovered the remains of the Vampire Lord, Akasha forced Moka to leave home to protect her. When Akasha was seemingly killed by Aqua, it triggered Moka's Shinso Blood, causing Alucard to awaken again. To save her daughter, Akasha used a rosary seal to create a pseudo personality—Outer Moka—to suppress her blood, stating that only someone who truly cares for her could remove it, in this case, Tsukune. She later destroyed all her photos and diaries, leaving behind no connections except the rosario seal, and placed Moka temporarily under Mikogami's care. It is revealed by Akua in chapter 42 that Akasha fused with Alucard to prevent his awakening. She is the originator of the quote "Know your place" (身の程を知れ Minohodo o shire?), which her daughter later adopted.
Akasha's name is derived from the Vampire Queen Akasha from Anne Rice's novel series The Vampire Chronicles.
