As a child, animals were always drawn to Hector, causing the people around him to think of him as a freak. This caused his mother to despise him, telling him that she wished he was never born. His father was an alchemist that only ever cared about wealth and being protected by those in power, so he barely ever acknowledged his son. The animals that were so drawn to him decided to help him by setting a church on fire, and telling him to go to the only place he would be accepted: Dracula's Castle.

When Hector first took up devil forging he was thought to be the most promising human there, causing his fellow aspiring Forgemaster, Isaac, to be jealous. He was never concerned about if his power was "evil" as he mastered devil alchemy, and continued to become as powerful as Death. When Dracula ordered his generals to ravage the countryside, Hector obeyed, despite not wishing to harm humans with his power. He pleaded to Dracula for months, but his lord didn't care about his concerns.

Once Dracula heard that Trevor Belmont was on his way to defeat him, he sent Hector to kill him. Hector didn't kill the Belmont, though, and instead took refugee in a church, where Dracula wouldn't be able to sense his powers. Concerned about losing one of his most powerful generals, he sent Isaac to see if he was dead, or if he had just betrayed him. Finding him to be alive, Isaac decided to kill him, rather than return him to the castle. During their battle, they sensed that Belmont had gotten into Dracula's Castle, and defeated Dracula. Isaac was enraged and blamed Hector for Dracula's death, only to be defeated by Hector shortly after.

Hector was convinced to stay by Rosaly, a sister from the church he took refugee in. She convinced him that the castle and it's demons had vanished. Isaac hadn't vanished though and, driven mad by Dracula's curse, watched Hector for three years and let him have peace, just so it would be painful when it was taken from him. This time was up when Rosaly went into the local village to sell apples. She was burned for witchcraft after Isaac had convinced the villagers she was selling poisoned apples. This angered Hector, and he ran after Isaac to Dracula's castle.
