Vampire:2020

Vampire 2020

In ten years, two Princes and then none. The tyrannical Prince Wallace, who called sixteen bloodhunts in six months, cut down by his former ally Victor Syrenno. Syrenno himself forced to step down pending the election of a new Prince… Now, enter a coterie of neonates, or more seasoned kindred, assembled for a job. Boons and rewards promised and signed. And then the job goes badly- somebody fucked up, intelligence was bad, and now the coterie is left holding the bag. But hey, there’s another job to make up for your botches in a city trembling on the brink of a power struggle.

Kindred of Note

BRUJAH CLAN

Bruce Hutton, Brujah, 7th Generation. Childe of Theodore the Armenian. Immigrated to the City from England in 1851. Sire of Mac Bishop. Publicly volunteered his childe for the Important Mission.

TOREADOR CLAN

The Toreador Clan has had a strong hold over the Easy City since it’s founding. While Wallace Markham was not it’s first Prince he was the longest serving one; his wild actions in the last year of his reign caused much harm to the Toreador Clan and Prince Syrenno’s coup unseated the Clan of the Rose from it’s lofty position. In the post-Syrenno environment Marissa took up the mantle of Toreador Primogen, dividing the clan between Wallace’s brood and the other Toreador.

• Example Character Sheet

Alive

Mac Bishop. WhiteStar. Brujah.

• Desc: Apparently Healthy caucasion male in his late 20's/early thirties, with short black hair and brown eyes. Usually dressed in nondescript and practical clothes.
• Bio: Former US Army Tracked Vehicle Repairer (91H), went survivalist after mustering out before being embraced by his sire Bruce Hutton who was in need of hands on technical skills from the modern day. When he proved to not be susceptible to blood bonding this caused a minor falling out, leaving Bishop to set up a fly by night PI business to get by, eventually culminating in Hutton volunteering him to the local Camerilla for a high risk mission. Bishop privately suspects it was a plot to tie up loose ends without his Sire getting his hands dirty but can't prove it. Yet.

James Rathmore. Oseng. Salubri.

Alice Mae White Silence. Toreador. Singer. Gun Moll
