Either they were hiding the details or they were naive to the affects of whatever their actions were because they nearly just brushed it off. Or they just wanted me to shut up.

Jacqueline.jpg

Background

Jacqueline is a year-old neonate Gangrel who has the appearance of a 21-year old punk rocker. She is new to the Seattle area from Boston (or so she claims) and is the vocalist and frontman of the punk band Seven (no relation to VII). She resides at the bar/club where she performs most at the edge of downtown. At first, she had no covenant ties due to being so new to Kindred life, but after witnessing things nearly erupting in a war, she is extremely hesitant to even consider joining one for resentment at being used as a pawn. Though she has her secrets, being the new kid and having no one to even truly call a friend, she is quite naive and may get herself into trouble just by following her heart to what she thinks is salvation from her loneliness.

Territory

Not officially a domain, but Jacqueline has been known to hang around the club, El Corazon, often. Her band performs there regularly so the owners and employees know of her and give her nearly free reign of the place.

Retainers

Paul Holloway

Notebook

They say inspiration can come from anywhere. I don't know who "they" are, but given that I have quite a bit of time on my hands, I suppose I can give their theory a thorough test. So here I am writing in a little black notebook about the daily events of my alleged life. Maybe some hack will want to publish it for me to become the next Anne Frank (I don't recommend it, wannabe publisher), but the hope is that maybe "they'll" be right and I'll get inspired for a song or two out of all this. So let's begin from when I arrived in the emerald city.

Wednesday Night's Alright for Fighting

The night after the Vienna Boys Choir concert, Vince gathered us together on a houseboat Mike arranged for us to discuss our plans. It was obvious that there was someone going around killing Kindred and retainers for whatever reason and given those who were involved, Vince was convinced that Genevieve was behind it. Not only was Nicolai dead, Evgeni had been threatened as well, and now Gabe was dead. He wanted to nab this guy and blow the thing open.

Given the targets, since I hadn't seen him in a while, and because I knew he was targeted in the past, I got a little nervous about Paul so I gave him a call on my way home. He answered and yelled over the noise in the background that he was at a house party in Shoreline at the invitation from a coworker. On a Monday night?? Man, my boy's a partier! I hated shouting on the phone so I let him go and took a detour to Pioneer Square.

I was hoping Jericho had gotten my message and lucky for me, he had! My elation at seeing him was doused rather quickly though. First, he greeted me with a handshake which was a little awkward and informal.
