Donovan Baine (ドノヴァン・バイン, Donovan Bain?) is a Dhampir, the offspring of an affair between a vampire male and a human female. His true origin is a mystery, however, it is known that he was shunned as a child for his tainted blood. One day, a terrible event, which involved him, occurred resulting in the death of everyone in the village, including his mother. For years he's wandered the world following the teachings of Buddhism in an attempt to control his massive power, as well as his inner turmoil. Donovan is a man who seeks an answer to his cursed existence. Along his journey he has learned many things, and eventually came into possession of a gigantic magical sword known as Dhylec. This sword has the unique ability to channel the spirits of various elementals and gods to harness their power. Combined with his powerful telekinetic abilities, his strength, his mental discipline, as well as the spirit beads worn around his body, Donovan becomes a force of justice feared by all evil. With the creation of Donovan Baine, the Darkstalkers' arrogance may have been their undoing.
Donovan's voice in the video game Night Warriors: Darkstalkers Revenge is provided by Nobuyuki Hiyama, who also plays Demitri. In Darkstalkers 3, Vampire Savior 2, and Vampire Hunter 2, he is voiced by Jurota Kosugi.
