Speaking of worsening the situation, vonun members trained in obfuscate who are in the city are changing tasks. Theyre going from keeping the kine safe and oblivious to keeping an eye on alucard, members of his house, and anyone he associates with as well as the heads of house. The goal is to give warning to anyone that might be targeted by a purge if it looks like it's about to happen immediately. Vonun believes that less information is safer, so no-one outside of vonun is aware of this. 


May not ever actually affect our story, but it's a warning to whoever if exciting things happen before I can write. Also, there's less kindred working on keeping kine oblivious. Major breaches of the masquerade are still being dealt with, but some of the minor ones may get through. It's not vonun's home so there's limited resources.

Now I'm curious. If the Vonun house is aware that Morrigan is in the city, would they assume her mother Morro is also near by? Given the history I've given Morro I'm sure there would be more then a few houses demanding her head if they found out where she was. 
 
There are scouts out and about in the city currently correct? Can I assume that if Cornelius goes and starts killing some other blood thirsty vampires, that a scout might come across him? And if so would Cornelius be able to smell and/or hear them since he's got crazy good senses? @anyonewithananswer

Short of one of them being a master of Obfuscate or similar discipline he's likely to pick up on them
 
Probably won't pick up on vonun, they specialize in hiding from auspex. As I understand it obfuscate deals with perception rather than actual senses (unnoticability charm vs invisibility charm). But there are probably other scouts as well. Feel free to correct me on that though.
 
So... it looks like I've finally figured out what's going on with images and such.


You actually have to upload the image from your computer and then insert it into your post for it to show more than just a broken link. The new system apparently doesn't take well to external image links. As far as the white backgrounds (for those of us using nightlife), when you copypasta your character sheet, etc., you have to chose the option to remove formatting before you submit. I might just be late on all of this, but I just thought I'd share since there's a wealth of broken images in the characters forum.
 
I just copy and paste images into posts. Not the image URL, the image it's self. I think this only works if the image is already within the allowed image size. 
 
When the site changed how all uploaded images were handled it lead to all the links being broken. Now it seems mainly imgur and deviantart work as far as links go. 
 
Sorry the intro for Vladimir and his ghouls is SO long. xD  


Just kind of needed to get them out there in the world before the gathering.
 
One thing I'm not completely clear on is how kindred typically would react to their sire. Is there an aura they can see, or a gut feeling? Are they compelled to obey them?

It's kind of a gut feeling . . . all kindred have a level one blood bond with their sire.


The wiki describes it like this:

After the first sip of blood, the thrall begins to develop strong feelings for the regnant, whether love or hate, though they are still free to act as they choose. Those in a one-drink bond may unconsciously seek out the regnant, seemingly accidentally running into them on a frequent basis . . . . The bond will become weaker over time if the thrall does not drink from the regnant's blood and does not see them for a long time. However, due to the very nature of the bond, such avoidance may be extremely difficult for the thrall.

So unless the sire strengthens the bond and continues to reinforce it, its effects will wear off in a few months following the embrace. Even then, in a level one bond they're not compelled to obey the sire in any way. Can read on it more here is you'd like: http://whitewolf.wikia.com/wiki/Blood_bond_(VTM)

If you'll give me the time to write xD  I'm always really busy, but I promise Lucifer or Scipio is my next piece.
 
Something told me I should mention this before the gathering. William and Lucinda... NOT a public thing. Entire relationship has been very private up until this point.
