Bring Out Your Dead

The night began with the introduction of three new Camarilla vampires. Rainbow introduced her childe, Belfrii and her companion, Sir Teacup. Another Toreador joined the city named Tristan and an Assamite named Sien joined as well. They were all welcomed and acknoledged by Prince Oliver. Some Anarchs came to visit and they were welcomed as well. Introductions were made and everyone seemed to be getting along.

Business was handled quickly and everyone split into various groups to discuss the goings on in the area, specifically the feeling of malaise that had fallen upon the region. The investigating kindred noticed that religious buildings seemed to be less directly affected, but have a stronger feeling around their perimeters. It was also discovered that some bodies had been stolen from their graves and the grave robbers tracked to the same run down neighborhood as the perpetrators who killed a man two weeks ago. Seeing that this was unlikely a coincidence, the Prince ordered the Sheriff to investigate. Meanwhile, Belfrii was attempting to speak to ghosts in a variety of ways and warned Miles that "Winter is coming."

Dark Ambition

The first modern game of the chronicle began with the Salt Lake City Anarchs negotiating their territory with the Prince. The Prince did not request council and negotiated everything himself. The resulting map was whisked away by the Anarchs, before any other court member could view it.
A Camarilla Ventrue arrived in the city, Jaret Byar. He is a well reputed kindred, extremely loyal to the Ivory Tower.
Miles received a call from his Retainer and went upstairs with the Keeper of Elysium, Zane Crockett. They discovered a man's corpse inside the restroom. His neck had been punctured and most of his blood had been drained.

I'm sure someone will miss him.

2002

The evening began with introductions of a few new Camarilla Cainites joining the city. David "Sammy" Sampson, a Tremere; Zane, a Toreador; and Anastazie. Some Anarchs arrived and informed the Prince that they had taken Salt Lake City and pushed the Sabbat to Ogden. The Anarchs expected a big show, but the Camarilla vampires already knew what had happened. In fact, the Camarilla vampires had provided covert assistance, because the Anarchs had refused overt assistance. Deflated, the Anarch Ambassador left the meeting.
After some meeting and greeting, another Camarilla vampire arrived. He was remarkably different from the brooding vampires. He was loud, kind, and smiling. He also handed out business cards. His name was Stanley Adams.

Stanley Adams, a face you can trust.

1984

Summer, 1984. Everyone met in the basement of Mile's nightclub, previously called The Star Palace, but now called The Star. The Anarchs arrived in force, but did not seek to challenge Prince Oliver's leadership. They informed him of their plan to take Salt Lake City from the Sabbat and the Prince agreed to assist them. There was also an unaligned kindred who came to visit the city. Two new Camarilla kindred also introduced themselves, Joe, a Brujah and Edwad, a Tremere.

Too much style, 80's Style.

Zeth, the unaligned kindred, asked Prince Oliver to extend protection to him and in turn, he would offer a major boon to the Prince. The Prince agreed. A passionate debate started between the Anarchs and Ivory Tower kindred about freedom, order, and the nature of Cainite existence. Although tempers flared a bit, everyone respected Elysium.
Prince Oliver and William discussed naming a Sheriff and asked Joe to complete a task to prove her worth, if she wanted the position. He told her to go to Salt Lake City and bring back a member of the Sabbat, alive. Joe agreed and departed with William, who would be an observer.
Edwad was causing minor commotion, insulting the Anarchs and demanding everyone follow him, because he was "The Chosen One." The Prince and Harpy thought he was funny and quite possibly ingested some contaminated blood, so he was tolerated. Zeth and Anthony, an Anarch, played chess. Prince Oliver and Harpy Miles bet a trivial boon on the outcome. Anthony and Miles both lost.
Joe returned with a Sabbat member in tow. The was tied up and began spouting anti-Camarilla propaganda. He was bleeding badly and his blood was obviously flowing, he was a ghoul. Prince Oliver offered the ghoul to the Anarchs as a gift to represent their alliance. Upon hearing this, the ghoul attempted to escape, but failed. Rahab, an Anarch, crushed the ghouls chest, which killed him.
Miles immediately protested because the ghouls blood was ruining his carpet, but Rex, another Anarch, promised to clean it up. Edwad rummaged through the corpse's pockets and found only slimy used contraceptive devices. Rainbow suggested Edwad wash his hands. Edwad rubbed his hands on the Harpy's shirt to clean them. Miles warned him and Edwad removed himself from the room in a hurry. Edwad went upstairs to change.
 Rainbow removed the body and took it somewhere secret. There, she used it to divine the future. She reported the finding to the court, after disposing of the body with her allies in the coroner's office. She told them of a red star at the start of the new millennium that would appear in the sky and that would be the time to strike the Sabbat and take Salt Lake City. Everyone was pleased to hear the prophecy and plans were tentatively discussed. The Anarchs played poker for trivial boons, which Riya easily won. Rainbow was teaching one of the young Anarchs about the Camarilla, for which Miles granted her loyal.
A short time later, a disturbance at the entrance of the club drew Miles, Joe, and Oliver upstairs. A gang was looking for their lost member, which they tracked to the club. Some heated words were exchanged and Edwad walked out to see what was going on. Edwad got punched in the back of the head and ran back inside. While everyone was arguing outside about the missing gang member, who everyone figured out was the ghoul Joe and kidnapped, Edwad told the Anarchs that anyone who helped fight the gang outside would receive a major boon from him. The Anarchs rushed outside. More words were exchanged, then Riya began singing, which seemed to entrance two of the gang members. Fighting then began, with everyone ganging up on the Sabbat vampires. The Sabbat vampires were quickly destroyed and the Masquerade was protected by a sudden power outage.
For her bravery and willingness to destroy Sabbat members, Joe was granted courageous by Prince Oliver.

The next game will be June 24, 2017 at 6pm at the Dragon's Keep, 48 west 300 north Orem, UT. Join us.

1969

Summer, 1969. Due to the population of the Orem-Provo area increasing beyond one hundred thousand and continuing to grow and a Sabbat presence in Salt Lake City, the Ivory Tower seemingly decided to send a group of Cainites to the area.
A group of kindred were given letters, summoning them to a secret meeting in a peach orchard seemingly from their Ivory Tower betters. Everyone stood around and stared at each other a moment, then Miles Sterling began introducing himself and talking to everyone. A table with food a candles was quickly discovered by Moonbeam, who began partaking of the food, which she swore was blood in food form. No one else was daring enough to eat the blood food, so they simply sat and chatted quietly.

Moonbeam and Miles were dressed stylishly.

Suddenly, a fancy dressed gentleman walked into the clearing. He told them he had sent the letters to summon them there. He told them of the darkness in Salt Lake City and how important it was to stop it from spreading. He implored them to work together and to consider the grove Elysium. No one disagreed with him and he departed as quickly as he'd arrived.
