VTM: Setting
VTM By Night is set in the contemporary year of 2017, and is set in the fictional city of New Wessex, PA. This RP runs off VTM V5, with homebrew exceptions.
01/17 New Wessex is divided. Whilst kine bicker over their Presidential cadidates, kindred are beginning to filter out of major cities, seeking refuge in back water residences. Though, where Kindred flock, trouble follows.
[] (DOMINATE): is the Discipline that overwhelms another person's mind with the vampire's will, forcing victims to think or act according to the vampire's decree.
Hendrik Castelle does everything with a certain finesse, leaving his shirts without wrinkles and is never caught in an un-pressed suit. Some Kindred even say he doesn't bother to change his look because it's perfectly subtle and intimidating; the perfect notes you wish to hit when you're a Ventrue. Recently being established as the Keeper of Elysium and a recent rise to power within the cainite society Hendrik still has alot to prove, however his natural aptitude for moving through the ranks and coming out on top has flourished, commonly known on the block as "Ace"; Ace's movement began around the late seventies in the "Cocaine Craze" streets of Miami, if you wish to be specific enough Ace's start began after the Dadeland Mall shootout. Although no-one could point out a direct sire to Hendrik, some Kindred of those days claimed to have seen him shake hands with the likes of Gustavo Gaviria Rivero and also an associate of the now released Jhon Jairo Velásquez Vásquez. To summarize, many neonates and ancilla within New Wessex never found it a good idea to work against him due to his amount of resources. Perhaps the most use of Hendrik's repertoire is the use of the Masquerade itself, reminding others that their existence is one of fables and late-night scares. Others claim Hendrik was the man you'd see if you wished to expose the boogeyman himself. To those who are more intune with the auras within the night will easily see the stains his soul carries, which begs to question exactly how he manages to stay so calm with such a fierce soul. However such power comes with a certain price for Hendrik, requiring blood from those under the influence of psychostimulants such as MDMA, amphetamine, and his personal favorite cocaine.
"If you want to test a foe's character, give him power."
