Joshua Sparrow
Vampire Childe of Lady Raven
You are a delver into the mystical arts. A shaman and a seer. Your embrace into the vampire clan was but a step on the path to higher power. Your Mistress values your magical skills, but hers is an intrigue filled house. You've managed to manipulate yourself into the position of your Mistress's lover. A position of great influence and great danger. It is a matter of prestige and politics, not romance.
Plot Point: Hostage in a Foreign House
The game of intrigue in your house is complex, and one of your rivals has managed a move against you. You have been sent to the household of your Lady's rival, Lord Arturo. You are a "guarantee of good behavior" hostage in the treaty between the Lord and Lady. You are pissed that your Mistress has sent you away, where your influence on her will diminish with time. You are also pissed that the Lord has placed a magical binding on you, preventing you from using your magic. You know that the Lord's childe, Valentina, holds the focus of the spell.
Your Lady's Rival: Lord Arturo Vladimir Maximillian Rex
Lord Arturo is a petty and cruel master, much like your own.
Lord Arturo's Favored Childe: Valentina
Valentina holds the focus of the spell that binds you from using your magic. You have noticed that Valentina is infatuated with you. This may be useful.
Your Blood Slave: Tweet
Tweet is your loyal ghoul bodyservant. You insist that he call you "Mr. Joshua". He was previously the ghoul to Dr. Vincent Barlowe, now deceased.
Plot Point: The Shiva Lingam of Haidakhan
You are attending the convention because you have an item for sale in the private auction. The Shiva Lingam of Haidakhan is a holy object from the temple of Haidakhan. It is proported to have great magical powers, but your research and investigation has turned up nothing unusual about the stone.
Plot Suggestion: Saving Face
While you're here - in the heart of your Mistress's enemy's household - you may want to turn circumstances to your advantage. If you can dig up some nice juicy dirt on Lord Arturo or just ferment chaos in his household, you may be able to gain status again with your Lady for disadvantaging her rival. You may even be able to turn this into more of a subvert and destroy mission which would, if successful, gain you great rewards from your Lady.
Plot Suggestion: Switching Houses
If the bug that's up your butt about your sire assigning you here gets really entrenched, you may consider changing households.
Your Rival: Alexei Alexandrovich Vronsky
Alexei is Lord Arturo's mage. It's hard to guess how powerful he is compared to you because his magic is so different from yours.
