Overview:
The Kindred of Clan Malkavian are reviled in Alexandria, yet have built a relative base of power in Georgetown. The Tremere Prince of Alexandria has outlawed the citizenship of any Malkavian to her Domain. While some pass through from time-to-time and one was granted temporary visitation rights upon an unused rock of an island, most Malkavians try to steer clear of the Domain south of the Potomac. In the north, however, things are quite different for the Cassandras. The powerful elder Joan has a niche for herself as a Primogen with the ear of the Prince. Her brood has settled into the domain of Gallaudet/Ivy City. All that the Clan has built in Georgetown is thrown into turmoil in December of 1994. The Sabbat launched a major offensive in the city, attacking Gallaudet directly and nearly killing or capturing Joan. It remains to be seen if the Malkavians can bounce back from the fall of their benefactor, Prince George of the Toreador. Meanwhile, the Malkavians of the Sabbat revel with their sectmates in the destruction of the Kindred institutions of Georgetown and look to recruiting appropriate candidates to the Sword of Caine.
None of these political and territorial challenges are of great importance to the Clan, however. Each member is heavily invested in the fulfillment of great prophesies and terrible omens. Some for good, some for ill, and some for completely inscrutable motivations.
Few have come to know, however, that a force claiming to be the Malkavian antediluvian resides in the mind of a hapless Malkavian neonate, Zachary.

Kindred and Cainites
Abraham
Malkavian of Alexandria. While never met by any of the characters, Abraham was mentioned by Lance Polloch at the Vencor board meeting on February 13, 1989 as having been executed by Prince Elaine for reasons unknown at a time before that meeting, yet some time in the recent past. He had some sort of controlling interest in hospitals in Northern Virginia and with his absence, the Ventrue look to move into that resource with the building of the new INOVA Fairfax Hospital. He might well be the same “Abraham” mentioned by Immanuel to Zachary on November 29, 1994, and thus Zachary’s grandsire. Or this might be a different Abraham altogether. On December 3, 1994, Jason Li told his childe Thaïs that the “Abraham incident” involved human sacrifices and mass embraces in the hospital in Fairfax before the building of the new facility. On December 5, 1994, Thaïs got a more complete picture of what had happened with Abraham from Jeremiah Banks. Jeremiah told her that Abraham had committed unspeakable acts involving pregnant women and unauthorized embraces and all manner of messy blood rituals before being found out. The affair required a massive Masquerade cleanup with many minds wiped. It was back some time in the early 1960s. Abraham was executed and his childe Immanuel was made an “undesirable” outlaw. On December 7, 1994, Thaïs confirmed the tale of Abraham from the Brujah Primogen Aloysia at the Georgetown Elysium at the Smithsonian National Zoo.
Adams, Damien Luther
Malkavian of Alexandria. Also a childe of Immanuel, the Malkavian has been a quiet resident of Alexandria, living on its fringes. Damien met Jinx and Rose on Theodore Roosevelt Island on March 5, 1989. He was playing an oboe “lullaby” for Hirut, the ancient. He was contacted on December 3, 1994 by the Prophet Zachary through the Cobweb. He tried to give as many answers as he could to Zachary’s many questions. He was headed to Loudoun to find Immanuel so that he wouldn’t be alone. But then he was to find Jordan and make him “Alexander” again . . . whatever that means. He was supposedly with Immanuel around the time he died, though Zachary never saw him. Perhaps he was waylaid. Zachary reconnected with Damien through the Cobweb on December 8, 1994, shortly after the attacks and the rise of the psychic ribbon wall. Zachary determined that Damien was indeed working at cross purposes and as his “brother” from the same blood experiment which birthed Zachary, Damien was hard-wired to carry out his mission.
Cedric
Malkavian of Georgetown. Once known only as “mustache man” of Jinx’s visions, Cedric is Prentiss’ sire and Joan’s lieutenant amongst the Malkavian leadership in the Malkavian Domain of Gallaudet/Ivy City. The Ventrue Barnaby Wilcox told his childe that Cedric was an old friend of his and in his coterie. Jinx has run into Cedric in Ivy City and Gallaudet University throughout the 90s. He is often with his sire when he is not hanging around his friends, the Brujah Peter Forsythe and the Ventrue, Barnaby Wilcox. Cedric met with George and Zachary after they awoke from their blood-sweats on December 4, 1994. He suggested the use of muslin robes for the Prophet to wear. He was slightly rude, but not downright mean. The next evening, Cedric warmed up to George, Benjamin and Zachary. He helped to train Zachary in the use of the Cobweb and combinations of Dominate and Obfuscate. Later, Cedric procured a Mustang for the team to use. In the eraly morning of December 6, 1994, Cedric greeted Zachary and George at Gallaudet University, seeing the four little girls that they had rescued. The following evening, he met with them alongside the rest of the assembled Malkavian Clan. The Malkavians had a vision of Jinx siring Chad (through Chad’s eyes . . . Jinx’s mind was still blank to them). Cedric was cagey and strange with Jinx on December 6, 1994. He ushered her away from the Malkavian library at Gallaudet and told her to meet with Joan on the Quad. Cedric was actually hanging out with Zachary, George, Joan and the four rescued girls at the time and they didn’t want to bother Jinx with all of that. Cedric taught Zachary quite a bit (from the Malkavian perspective) what the Clans were and the Disciplines. The next night on December 7, 1994, he left from the Malkavian library fairly early to attend Elysium. Cedric represented the Malkavian Clan at Elysium at the National Zoo on December 7, 1994, his sire noticeably absent. As the Ventrue made their move against Prince George, Cedric went into Obfuscation. His fate is unknown at this time.
Comet
Malkavian of Georgetown. Jinx’s broodmate, childe of Prentiss. He is an Anarch in the Domain of Georgetown and holds a grudge against his sire. He has yet to really interact with Jinx, but they know of one another. Bottleneck of the Nosferatu mentioned to his lover Henry that he and a group of Anarchs, including Comet, were pulling off a heist of Texas Instuments technology from a truck headed to George Washington University on February 15, 1989. Comet met up with Jinx the following night when Jinx brought Allie along to be ferreted out of the city. Comet introduced her to the Anarchs. After those antics, Comet went home with his great-grandsire Joan when the Malkavian elder came to Dharma with Rose for some reason. Jinx has run into Comet occasionally at Malkavain family gatherings. He continues to be a surly teenager with an Anarch sensibility.
Garrow, Juniper Anne / JINX
Malkavian of Georgetown. [NOTE: Jinx was a Player Character from the beginning through BOOK I, Story 3, Chapter 5, part 3: “Bubble.” Everything the character has done after that will be listed here. To see Jinx’s notes as a PC and read her PC Page, click here.] Seer freed of the Cobweb. Gateway of Chaos? Jinx was last seen on December 8, 1994 hiding in a boathouse on the Potomac River near the Chain Bridge to Virginia as the area was besieged with Sabbat. Jinx had made mental contact with Montbatton. The Sabbat priest told Jinx to stay out of sight and that he would be there for her soon. Jinx seemed excited about the prospects of life outside of the Camarilla. Her fate is unknown at this time.
Immanuel
Malkavian of Alexandria. Immanuel Embraced Zachary after abducting him and taking him in a stolen car to Ben Brenman Park in the morning of Tuesday, November 29, 1994. He spoke of the end of the world and Zachary’s part in that. He later appeared to Zachary the next night in a mirror using the Cobweb. He warned Zachary that he was being tracked by the Black Hand and the only way to keep them off of Zachary’s trail was for Immanuel to walk into the sun, but that he’d try to talk to him again. On December 3, 1994, Immanuel sees Zachary through the Cobweb moments before his death. Immanuel is in a burning barn in Loudoun County when he is surrounded by armored forces of the Black Hand commanded by Shadaal. He imparts some bit of final information to his childe before he sacrifices himself in the flames to avoid capture. On December 5, 1994, Thaïs asks Jeremiah Banks about the “Abraham Incident” to learn why the Malkavians were so persecuted in Alexandria. She learns that following Abraham’s execution, his childe Immanuel was basically made an outlaw and had lived on the margins ever since.
Joan
Malkavian Primogen of Georgetown. Malkavian Primogen of the Domain of Georgetown and Domina of Ivy City/Gallaudet. Jinx was presented to Joan on April 3, 1985. Joan seemed to know more about Jinx’s destiny than she knew herself. She told Jinx (in her mind) to seek her out when she returned from her Travels. Joan told Prentiss to present Jinx to the Prince of Georgetown within the year, but that Jinx was confined to Malkavian territory until such a time. Joan was at the Georgetown Elysium below the Kennedy Center on Thursday, July 23, 1985 when Vitus was Presented to the Prince. She spent a boon to intercede in favor of a condemned neonate. Joan was at the Smithsonian Castle Elysium on Monday, January 6, 1986 for Jinx’s Presentation before Prince George. She whispered in George’s ear and he accepted Jinx into the fold. Rose woke to find Joan waiting for him after he had broken into Jinx’s haven in Malkavian Domain. She politely scolded him, but then helped them to find Jinx by seeking out Comet. In the process, she gave away some more cryptic portends to Rose. When she found Comet at Dharma Coffee House, she left Rose to their own devises with her other great-grandchilde, Jinx, and departed with Comet. Joan helped Jinx learn about her powers of Auspex and guided her through the astral plane in various lessons during the years of 1989-1994. Joan was at the presentation of Gwenevieve Rossellini to the court of Prince George at the Smithsonian Castle on November 27, 1994. She excused herself to “make a phone call.” A little girl who called herself Joan made a strange and cryptic call as “Caller Number 3” on DJ Prophet’s Power Hour on WRXL 102.1 FM Radio Alexandria just after midnight on Sunday, November 27, 1994. She warned the Prophet that what must come to pass must come to pass. On December 3, 1994, Zachary contacted Joan through the Cobweb and learned more about his destiny and where next to look. Joan met Zachary and his entourage at Daingerfield Island in Old Town Alexandria and used her mastery of Obfuscate to hide the troupe from the watchful eyes of the Lighthouse of Alexandria. Benjamin and the assembled Kindred bobbed and weaved through the crowds of tourists to a quiet alleyway.Joan used some mechanism to enter and brought the group to the underground library. She waited there as Zachary’s coterie entered the chamber of Samal. When Zachary presented his third eye, Joan fell prostrate on the ground in worship of the Prophet. Following the events at OTCAL on December 4, 1994, she led the group through Obfuscation back to Daingerfield Island. She then took George, Benjamin and Zachary to her domain in Gallaudet University to bed down for the day. On December 5, 1994, Joan had a discussion with Zachary about the use of muslin during the day to capture dream-induced blood-sigils for future interpretation. She unveiled much more about the nature of the Mekhetim and the forces arrayed against the Prophet. She spoke briefly through the cobweb with Zachary about Manassas and other matters on December 6, 1994 in the A.M.
Later that morning, she helped lead the rescued children from the mustang given to the Prophet and George to a “safe place.” The next night Joan was wiping the rescued girls’ minds when all of the Malkavians in the library were beset by an expansion of the Cobweb with Chad’s embrace. That morning (the A.M. of December 7, 1994), Joan spoke with Jinx at a gazebo on the quad of Gallaudet University in an Obfuscate bubble and revealed that Jinx is one of the Gateways of Gehenna and that her destiny is great and terrible. On December 7, 1994, after the girls’ minds had been wiped, Joan had her grandchilde Theodore take the children to George Washington Hospital to have the reunited with their families. She was headed to Elysium when she was accosted by a group of Tzimisce, led by the “Ant Man.” The creature told her that “Colette sends her regards” before staking Joan. The creature threw Joan into a car and tried to drive off with her, but it was stopped by George using his power over blood. Zachary unstaked Joan and the two of them snuck down to the Malkavian library to fetch some blood stores and Benjamin. They then used Obfuscate to get back to George and the car. George had finished his diablerie of the now-dead Dr. Gavreau Tzimisce ant-like creature. The four took off in the stolen vehicle as the two Tzimisce gave chase. When George took the others to the Jameson Inn in Annandale, Va., he stepped out of the motel room to “make some contacts.” Joan took that as an opportunity to get away. She took Zachary and Benjamin to OTCAL. She warned that OTCAL was now compromised and so she would be working with the cult to move artifacts and Samal soon, but Zachary and Benjamin should hide elsewhere. And so, Zachary and Benjamin left Joan at OTCAL on December 8, 1994 with the understanding that she would be in contact over the Cobweb.
King, (Prince) Quentin
Malkavian Prince of Boston. Gwenevieve was presented to the nominal Camarilla leader of Boston by Jonathan Milliner on October 23, 1982. At the Boston Elysium inside the Custom House Tower, The Prince sized up Gwen (in his more lucid moments), but was ultimately uninterested in her as long as “Andreas was happy about it and she sticks to the Promise.”
Klytaimēstra
Malkavian of the CEZ. Klytaimēstra is an elder Malkavian seer who helps to guide the Camarilla Inner Council operation in the CEZ. #7 has had reason to see her while in the CEZ, and she can be unnerving, but they have not established any sort of meaningful relationship. Klytaimēstra sensed the ripple in the Cobweb created by Zachary on November 29, 1994 and suggested the Inner Council investigate. Thus, the Tremere sent their agent Number 7.
Malkav (Ma’ail)
Antediluvian. The Father of Madness, the Shepherd of the Web, the Ascended, the Mind Beyond . . . or a damn good ancient impersonator with loads of Auspex and Chimerstry . . . has made themselves known to his “Voice,” the humble neonate Prophet Zachariah upon DJ Zakz’s final radio broadcast on Wednesday, November 30, 1994. He later made himself manifest within the mind of a prying Tremere meddling in forces beyond his comprehension . . . only for a split second, but that was certainly long enough to give said Tremere a Derangement. Malkav spoke again to Zachary when he was in the bowels of OTCAL. Malkav denied saying any of the words attributed to him on the parchments in the collection, though the Word of Power Ma’ail caused Zachary to enter into a fugue.
Montbatton
Malkavian antitribu. Montbatton was the sole Sabbat survivor of the Battle of Bowie on New Year’s 1986. He fled for Baltimore, but not before connecting with Jinx in the Cobweb (the first time she had successfully done that) to tell her to find him later. Montbatton reentered Jinx’s mind on December 7, 1994 when Jinx had gone to the Panda enclosure for an intimate moment with Rose while the pair were on drug blood. He first taunted her with a “get it, gurl,” but then warned Jinx to leave immediately. Apparently, the Sabbat were poised to attack the Elysium. Montbatton spoke with Jinx in her mind, but the attack began. Later (in the a.m. of December 8), he entered Jinx’s mind when she called out to him during the battle near Chain Bridge. He was bringing Sabbat reinforcements, but he was also working to make sure Jinx was hidden well so that they might talk.
Prentiss “Mother”
Malkavian of Georgetown. S’eth Adar “cleaner.” Prentiss saved Juniper from her attackers only to imprison her and dress her as a doll. Prentiss says she is some sort of “cop,” but on a larger scale beyond Juniper’s imaginings. Fascinated by Juniper, she is grooming her prisoner for the Embrace. She ghouled Juniper on April 3, 1985 and telling her that the next night was going to be filled with adventures. She Embraced her childe and presented her to the Malkavian elder, Joan. A few months later, now bored of her “daughter,” she took Jinx to the Battle of Bowie. Jinx served with distinction and her sire was pleased. Prentiss presented Jinx before Prince George at Elysium on January 6, 1986. Prentiss joined Rose in their investigation into Masquerade breaching murders on the University of College Park campus in February 1989. Rose slipped away after he ran into Jinx and the two had found a frightened Allie who had committed the murders. Prentiss later ran into Rose who told her of Jinx’s visions. She seemed deeply intrigued. On February 17, 1989, Prentiss arrived at Alexandria Elysium to claim her boon for her role in cleaning up the mess from the Brock Thompson murders (technically, she had the boon transferred from Bobby Schroyer after he was incapable of cleaning up the problem on his own). She took special interest in her childe after she had learned that Jinx was capable of visions. Prentiss attended the Alexandria Elysium on February 23, 1989 as Bobby Schroyer’s “date.” Bobby’s boon was transferred to Printess and she elected to hold onto it for the future. Prentiss attempted to gain further insight into her childe’s newfound powers of precognition, but was constantly rebuffed. Due to the snub, she has become her childe’s rival. She has continued to work with distinction for the S’eth Adar and has a cordial working relationship with Vitus.
Prentiss was at the Ansara estate on December 6, 1994 to aid in the investigation into the Ventrue Primogen’s assassination. She entered the smoldering building with Vitus and found a couple of ash piles of fallen Cainites. She scooped up the remains for her childe Jinx to use the sight-beyond-sight on. Prentiss stood on guard to protect the Prince during the Georgetown Elysium at the Smithsonian National Zoo on December 7, 1994. She watched Jinx with disdain, but otherwise kept a sharp eye. And then, there was a Ventrue coup. Vitus convinced Prentiss to stand with him in the revolution and she helped to depose George. She planted a stiletto into his fat frame as Jordan staked him. As the Sabbat began to attack, she followed with Vitus and Henry as they met up with Rose and Jinx in the panda enclosure. Together, they fought off the attacking Gangrel antitribu. After besting them (and witnessing Vitus commit diablerie), Prentiss and the team joined up with some commandos, scaled a wall, went down a ravine and faced a pack of wolves. Prentiss killed one (and would have killed another if it weren’t shot out from under her grasp). She joined the other escapees in a small caravan of stolen vehicles through the streets of D.C., looking for a way to get south, though all of the highways were packed with panicking families. They all arrived at last at Chain Bridge, but found a psychic ribbon wall blocking the path to any and all Kindred. She, being of high Auspex, was one of the first to sense the presence of the wall. Prentiss went into obfuscation and began sneak-attacking the line of marauding Gangrel antitribu. Her fate is unknown at this time.
Theodore
Malkavian of Georgetown. Theodore is a part of the Malkavian brood of Gallaudet/Ivy City. He is often in or near the underground library at the Psychology Department of Gallaudet University. Jinx has seen Theodore on occasion in Joan’s orbit or at Malkavian family gatherings. Theodore minded the door to the Malkavian sanctum below Gallaudet University on December 4, 1994. He let Zachary pass by with his friends only because he said that Joan would deal with them if they weren’t wanted. He seemed to recognize that Zachary was one of his blood. He continued in “guard duty” at the door to the Malkavian library in Gallaudet for the next few nights while Zachary, George and Benjamin stayed in the Malkavian domain. Theodore was a part of the Malkavian mass vision when the Cobweb “expanded” with the siring of Chad on December 6, 1994. On December 7, 1994, Joan asked Theodore to escort the four girls who Zachary and George had rescued from the Ålixir demon to near the George Washington University Hospital and have them walk in, so that they could be ultimately reunited with their families now that their memories had been wiped. He thus left shortly before the Tzimisce attacked.
Thomas, Chad
Malkavian. Fledgling. The frat boy was dying on the table on February 16, 1989: another victim of Brock Thompson. However, Jinx ghouled him to save his life and find out more about what happened. Vitus Dominated him to sleep after the coterie got the information they wanted from him and took him in their armored SUV to Vitus’ manor. Jinx wakes Chad and has a confusing talk with him, later enlisting the help of Vitus to figure out what to do with the boy. He stays in the manor through the day under Vitus’ intimidating warnings not to attempt to leave. The next night, the coterie gives him “the talk.” He is, understandably, shaken. He is given more agency than most ghouls in deciding if he wishes to continue down the dark path of ghouldom or face his fate as a “heroin junkie” in Rose’s estimation. He asks the coterie for a night to sleep and think on it. On February 18, Chad elects to stay on as Jinx’s “blood intern” and is nearly killed by Jinx’s feeding. She saves his life by giving him back his blood and he finds the experience to be exhilarating. Chad serves his mistress throughout the early 1990s. He earns his degree, but soon loses interest in anything but what his mistress asks of him. He visits Delia Evans as per his mistress’s request. On December 6, 1994, Chad was enthusiastically participating in a routine feeding with Jinx, but something went wrong. She (and Chad) were locked in a vision and Jinx took too much blood, leaving Chad dead and his blood used as a medium for Jinx’s fugue prophetic scrawling in her bedroom. In a panic, Jinx embraced her beloved ghoul. When Vitus found the pair in his house while Chad was still going through the Malkavian Change, he had Chad staked and placed into a secure location (Vitus’ facility in Clifton, Va.) to be dealt with later. Simultaneously, the other Malkavians tied to the Cobweb could sense his embrace.
Ghouls
Meyer, Benjamin “DJ Ben Jammin’”
Domitor: Zachary Sellz
Benjamin is Zachary’s best friend and co-host on the night show at WRXL 102.1 FM Radio Alexandria. He shook Zachary out of it when Zachary had some sort of waking nightmare attack while on air. Benjamin was last seen in the early morning hours of Tuesday, November 29, 1994 offering his friend a ride home, but Zachary chose to leave by himself. Benjamin hung out with his friend the next day, despite him acting strangely. During their broadcast, Zachary again prophesied and things got . . . weirder. The lights flickered off and a strange Grey Man appeared and had odd questions and used some sort of powers on Patricia in the producer’s booth. They all left the station in fear, but then Benjamin joined with two of his co-workers to cry out in a single voice to Zachary: “Thank you for being my voice.” When Ben snapped out of it, he went with his friend first to a restaurant and then to his apartment to try to figure out the alien conspiracy going on. By the end of the night, however, Zachary “came out” at last to his best friend . . . as a vampire. Ben spent the next day checking out books from the library on vampires and getting animal blood from the butcher shop for his friend. On December 1, 1994, Ben went with Zachary and “George” to the Americana Hotel to debrief far away from where folks might be looking for them. Suddenly, birds started killing themselves by bashing into the window of the hotel room. After getting some of the “facts of unlife,” Zachary reluctantly made Benjamin his ghoul so that they could get more information as Ben was now “of the blood.” Benjamin continued to learn and fret over his friend-turned-domitor as they hid out in the Hotel Americana. Ben joined George and Zachary on the night of December 2-3, 1994 as they went to Club Euphonia to find the two women from Zachary’s vision. After they met up with Thaïs and Desirée, they left the club as George was taken away by Tremere agents. Benjamin tired to piece together what was going on at Desirée’s art studio. Benjamin went with the group to Arlandria to meet with Nikoli at an abandoned warehouse in the wee hours of the morning on December 3, 1994. Benjamin went with his friend and new associates to the H&H Ranch. Zachary told him to sleep for the day. When he woke, Eric Normandin made Benjamin some flapjacks. Benjamin went with the crew to Daingerfield Island in Old Town Alexandria to meet with Nikoli and the ancient child Joan. Joan used her mastery of Obfuscate to help Benjamin and those with him to hide from the prying eyes of the Lighthouse of Alexandria as the troupe bobbed and weaved through the throng of tourists. Benjamin arrived at OTCAL with the rest. Even though Joan and Nikoli refused to leave the confines of the library, Zachary entered the double doors into the heart of the underground OTCAL facility and Benjamin dutifully followed. Inside, the assembled encountered the entity calling itself Samal. Samal entered the mind of Benjamin’s friend, and to Benjamin’s eyes, all of his erstwhile compatriots became nearly comatose in shaking medical distress. Benjamin witnessed his friend grow a third eye and the cultists begin to worship him. Undaunted, he continued to help Zachary. Later that morning, he left OTCAL and said goodbye to Nikoli, Thaïs and Desirée. Benjamin, Zachary, George and Joan went from Daingerfield Island in Alexandria to Gallaudet University in the Domain of Georgetown to bed down for the day. Benjamin was given a dorm room to rest in. Benjamin went with George and Zachary to Manassas Battlefield Park on December 6, 1994. Though the team seemed to find nothing of interest there, on the way back they stopped for gas. While at the filling station, George and Zachary saw something that alarmed them and so left Benjamin with the keys to the Mustang that was given to them by the Malkavians and left him alone. George came back for Benjamin and took over the Mustang. The group drove with four rescued girls across the river and back to Gallaudet (with a brief pit stop of a traffic stop by the police: but the officer was easily managed with George’s mind powers). Jinx had seen Zachary in a vision and drew a sketch for Vitus. It was only a matter of time before Vitus’ detective found a match for the local DJ. On December 7, 1994, Vitus put out a search among his forces for Zachary and his known associate, “DJ Ben Jammin.” Benjamin listened to Cedric in the Malkaivian library on December 7, 1994 as he told Zachary about the Clans and Disciplines, attempting to write down the wisdom, but was stopped by Cedric who told him to memorize it instead. The next night (also the 7th), Benjamin was with George and Zachary in the Malkavian library below ground as Joan was attacked by a pack of Tzimisce on the campus above. He was told to wait in the crypt as Zachary and George went up the stairs to face the attackers. Once Zachary had unstaked Joan, the two went back down to the library to retrieve Benjamin and some blood stores. The three the made their way to the car through Obfuscation and gave the attacking Tzimisce the slip. Benjamin then went with Joan, George and Zachary to the Jameson Inn in Annandale. When George went out to “make some contacts and be right back,” Joan, Zachary and Benjamin took their opportunity to get away from an ever-more-erratic George. The three went to OTCAL. Joan determined that the place was compromised and so would work to move material with the other cultists, but that would take time. In the meantime, she suggested that Zachary and Benjamin find another place to hide. Benjamin went with Zachary to Club Euphonia to meet up with Desirée and Thaïs once more. They were greeted by the security ghoul, Alexander, who locked them into a closet until Desirée could return. Once Des and Ty arrived late that morning (December 8, 1994), the four reunited and stayed the day in Del Ray. The next night, Benjamin went out onto the terrace to view D.C. in chaos. He also could sense when Thaïs was very hungry and looking at him. Luckily, Zachary had some blood bags. Zachary, Thaïs and Benjamin played UNO for a while as Desirée recovered from her blood vision with Zachary’s blood. The following night (December 9, 1994), Benjamin stays in the Penthouse to watch the news, compile notes, watch from the top of Del Ray Tower in the penthouse as Thaïs and Zachary go out to hunt.
Nathaniel
Domitor: Prentiss
Last name unknown at this time (and possibly unknown to Nathaniel), Nathaniel is Prentiss’ servitor. He was intensely jealous of Juniper/Jinx as Prentiss had marked her out for the Embrace. Nathanial made sandwiches for Juniper as she was tied up for the Embrace in Prentiss’ attic. He and Jinx made a truce of sorts. He continues to serve his “mistress” in all things, including driving her around and procuring any number of things she requires. He drove Jinx and Prentiss in their Mercedes to the Smithsonian Castle for Jinx’s Presentation. Nathaniel was waiting in the car on December 6, 1994 at the Ansara estate while his mistress was on duty.
Ziegler, (Professor) Raymond
Domitor: Cedric
Dr. Ziegler is a professor at Gallaudet University and is one of Cedric’s ghouls. Though the characters have yet to meet him, George read the blood being served to him Dr. Ziegler’s “profile” using his Path of Blood on December 7, 1994.
