Pack: [[Exculpation]] ## Character Notes Nobody ever appreciates you the way you deserve. Not your mortal parents, who sent you off to the third (Third!) best boarding school in Switzerland. Not your teachers, who wrote you the lackluster recommendations which resulted in you being forced to attend Oriel (Oriel!) College instead of Balliol. That's practically like not getting in at Oxford at all! Even the vampire who embraced you never really treated you right. You were given all the worst jobs even as your broodmates became Princes and Archons in the Camarilla, and forced to pretend they *deserved* it. You had the last laugh when you met [[E Spencer (Ductus)]] and sold them the location of your Sire and their other Childer. You laughed long and hard as the fires claimed that beautiful old mansion, and you were still laughing when Spencer offered you a place among the savage beasts of their pack. You've never looked back since. True, these brutes aren't able to properly appreciate your genius, but they sure do love your taste for revenge, and that's something. ## Character Secrets Some small-minded fools might dare spit the word "heretic" at your feet. You have kept track of every slight ever paid you, and always found a way to deal out vengeance a hundredfold. Once, when you were waiting in an abysmally long line of traffic on your way to a major event, a group of black SUVs tore through the light and one of them even dented your favorite car! Not only that, but when you arrived -now late!- to the event, you discovered that those SUVs had been transporting the famed Inquisitors of [[Reasonable Doubt]]. You knew then that you must have your well-deserved revenge, no matter how many vampires needed to die for that to happen. Eventually, years later, you saw your opportunity. You convinced [[E Spencer (Ductus)]] to go after the Inquisitors. The Ductus was looking for their next prey, and everyone in the pack was suggesting ideas, but it was yours, of course, that the Ductus eventually accepted. For months, you and your packmates chased your hated rivals before finding and waylaying them in a squalid little place called Megged's Hill. Somehow, just a couple of weeks later, those very same Inquisitors are joining this mass gathering. How dare they survive against your wishes? Unlike most, [[S Reid]] of [[Habeas Corpus]] has often recognized your brilliance and offered you fitting tributes. They even reached out to tell you about the events happening at Megged's Hill, full of warnings about an infernal ritual. How sweet. You, of course, knew about the ritual, as you'd already killed the Inquisitors by that point, but the further news that there were dozens of other vampires on their way, and that Reasonable Doubt were among them, came from Reid. ## Character Goals You know little of [[K Carter]] of [[No Contest]], though you regard that entire pack as one of the few bright spots in all the Sabbat. They're mysterious, aloof, and powerful, all things you value highly. Given their ability to always show up at important moments, you suspect they have quite the sophisticated intelligence apparatus. Carter has shown you appropriate respect in the past. Perhaps they'll be willing to help you answer the question of how exactly these Inquisitors survived. If nothing else, perhaps they'll be willing to help you find a place among No Contest should things go poorly. How could they not, given the obvious value of having you on their team?
