Prince Harold Godwinson Posted Image Childe of Marcus Verus, Baron of Avalon and Prince of the Fief of Chester, Childe of Mithras, God-King of Avalon, Prince of London. Prince Godwinson was instituted in place by the Archon Gilbert d'Harfleur at the behest of Praetor Rudiger Kleiss. Since then he has set about remodelling the Court of New Sarum in his image. More old fashioned and adhering to detail and etiquette than the old Prince, Harold is at once strict and lenient when fancy takes him. Those closest to him say he has a shrewd political mind and every move he makes has been calculated far in advance. Theme song: The Obsessed - Iron and Stone Dominic Fraser Posted Image Childe of Prince Harold Godwinson, Dominic is an innovator in the field of IT. Nobody is sure when he was embraced but most presume it was fairly recently given his field of work. He founded several web based businesses offering different services, taxis, cheap accommodation, among other things. He is now working on creating specialist programmes for mobile phone devices in collaboration with TWC's mobile software department. It is whispered at court that this was the price to buy d'Avignon back into the circle. Theme song: Devo - Time Out for Fun Prince Francois du Versailles - DECEASED Posted Image Childe of Gaius Marcellus, Prince of Paris. Childe of Alexander. Prince du Versailles reigned for over 100 years and has brought great prosperity to the kindred of New Sarum. His final years represented a golden age and Prince du Versailles was readily accepted as one of the chief causes. He maintained a close knit group of Primogen and advisors around himself at all times. Audiences with him were rare and tended to be short, though he did insist on personally chairing every court meeting in order to keep up to date with the latest issues. Despite his many successes, the former Prince always seemed stern and watchful, as though he expected everything to crumble and fail as soon as he chose to relax and enjoy the fruits of his labours. He was known to be behind Trans World Corporation, which owns and operates many businesses in the city and is a large campaign contributor to several political worthies in the area, a legacy he left to his childe, Antoine d'Avignon. Prince du Versailles was slain in combat with a monstrous Tzimisce, Priscus Talia Huszti of the First Crusade of the Sabbat. Theme song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSAd3NpDi6Q Antoine d'Avignon Posted Image The childe of the former Prince and Ventrue Primogen, stripped of the rank of Seneschal by the new incumbent. Antoine once enjoyed a privileged position at court. He was often the first to greet new arrivals to the city and insisted upon offering suitable accomodation to all, ensuring that they were not wandering the streets in a state of hunger, giving him the unofficial title of "Master of Havens". Which was appropriate for this wealthy hotellier and realtor. It was said that not only did he offer a variety of havens for use to kindred in need, for a price, but he knew the location of almost every kindred haven in the city. Though despite his recent seculsion, it seems that at least remains the case. He was leader of a group of French Ventrue in the city, known colloquially as "La Faction Francais", though many of those seemed to have betrayed him for favour in the new Court. d'Avignon remains a dangerous and cunning man and has grown increasinly bitter and isolated since the death of his beloved sire. Theme Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3Kvu6Kgp88 Edouard Beauchamp Posted Image Childer of the Ventrue Primogen Antoine d'Avignon. Edouard is known to hold a preeminent position of influence and power within the regional Judicial system and has been known to act as a fair and just adjudicator of disputes between the civilised Kindred of the city. His reputation is that of an honourable gentleman Judge who has proven his commitment to justice within Kindred society above his own and his clans self interest despite being considered part of 'La Faction Francais'. Some have 'fondly' dubbed him 'Master of the laws' and which Edouard has openly shunned association from several times. His few open detractors would seek to call into question the nature of his justice, to which he has always replied with a pointed on the nature of Kindred society. Anton Du Lac Posted Image A very established and reviled kindred, Mr Du Lac has been well traveled, having spent much time in South Africa in his youth. He is an expert geologist and antique dealer. Having an intricate knowledge of both antiquities and precious stones from his time working at his family's diamond mines. He often complains about the fortune he left behind but this is normally done in jest. One thing is certain, he is a shark in a suit. Completely ruthless and ambitious. If he had not been embraced he could have made a decent run at President one day. With that said, his brusque nature leaves him as a relatively unpopular man, not that he cares. He also seems to have a problem with black people, but his motivations for that are unknown. Du Lac was appointed as Steward of New Sarum and is responsible for sourcing the "feasts" at Elysiums as well as keeping track of kindred business interests and ensuring no conflicts arise. An interesting position for someone hated by so many. Theme song: James Carter & the Prisoners - Po Lazarus Thomas Archer Posted Image Originally an outsider brought in to sure up the city early 90's he is still ultimately an offshoot of the Prince's line. A dedicated and meticulous man who believes in efficiency over frivolity, a view that has caused him occasional minor tensions with some of the Toreador. Tom is a true believer in the Camerilla and his clans place within it as the unifier and a leading force. Overseeing the east coast division of the International services and supply chain corporation, The Verco group, and delivering the less than glamorous services through government contracts and key regional partnerships.

Character Name: Bartholomew Bonche Blog Tag : Bart Player Name: Derek Leduc Posted Image Public Backstory: The old man with a story to tell, he views himself as a motivator with a flair for automobiles. A bit on the eccentric side with dark humor, he is the guy to get in contact with if you're looking for a car or truck. Typically one to avoid physical confrontation, he's expressed a love of property and vehicles, as well as an ear for a good story or two. On occasion that 'grandfatherly' quality drops, and he becomes a very cunning business man, viewing life as a game of 'Go', though will rarely say No to an opportunity.

Ventrue James Johnson Posted Image JJ is part of the (FKW) Fair Knight Welcoming team sponsored by the Prince. He enthusiastically carries out the duties of welcoming new kindred into the city prior to court recognition. He is known to be rather down to earth compared to many of his cousins and enjoys the status and connections the position offers despite ruffling a few feathers . He is also the host of the radio show " Nights Out with JJ" a popular program covering all topics concerning the city from exclusive club openings to DUI checkpoints to NSA spy drones. Also interlaced in his commentary are unlife hacks for kindred who have recently arrived in the city extending a welcoming hand from the Clan of Kings. |
