Build: Normal

Hair: No

Eyes: Red, glowing

Appearance: 4

Notable Characteristics: Inhuman, Glowing Eyes

Height: 193 cm / 6'4"

Build: Muscular

Hair: Dark brown

Eyes: Dark brown

Appearance: 4 Bold demeanor

Notable Characteristics: Inhuman

= The Followers of Set =

Zalika
Apparent Age: Mid-20's

Height: 5'10 / 176

Build: Athletic

Hair: Curly, Red-Brown, Natural

Eyes: Brown

Appearance: 4, Striking

Notable Characteristics: Inhuman, Covered in tattoos

Clan Status: Dedicated, Erudite, Enlightened

If one is brave enough to venture into the Settie Temple one might encounter Zalika. On the quieter side, one often never forgets her presence. She walks with a stern gate her eyes never seeming to cease their analyzing of the Kindred whom decide to pay a visit to their lovely abode. The heat of her burning gaze is often never forgotten. Although her words are sharp or cruel they often have an air of truth to them even if one may not wish to hear it. She's the head priestess of the congregation that seems to be building out of Philadelphia. Usually one to keep her head out of politics she is often never seen that events and choosing to focus just a bit more on her craft or... at least so it seems.(edited)

Salihah
Apparent Age: 25

Height: 5'8" 172.72 cm

Build: Lithe, athletic

Hair: Dark brown

Eyes:  Brown

Appearance: 5, Stunning

Notable Characteristics: Inhuman, scales on back, Taint of Corruption

Status: Influential, Herd Shaper

The main face of the Serpents in Philadelphia, Salihah can be found most nights either at Cheerleader's, the strip club owned and maintained by the Followers, or at the temple. Having a reputation for being less obviously fanatical than some Followers, Salihah instead is a font of knowledge, willing and more than able to talk about anything and everything under the sun. She bears a faint accent, visible more in the way she structures her sentences and a slight lilting cadence to her words and a pair of large, dark sunglasses from which she's rarely seen parted.(edited)

Ammon
Apparent Age: Early-30's

Height: 5'7" / 170 Centimetres

Build: Muscular

Hair: Light Brown, closely styled

Eyes: Light Green

Appearance: 5, Pornographic

Notable Characteristics: Nevershirt, thicc as fuck.

Clan Status: None.

In the long nights of the modern day everyone has the need for a single bit of respite, and in that respite there is the chance even still, for a furthered sense of immediate enlightenment. And there are none more willing, or constant in their respite studies, than Ammon of the clan of the serpent. Ammon is the paramount to the knowledge that not all good things come in harsh study and pervasive discipline. The shackles of the Aeons, are even stronger on the outside of our normal perceptions, at least to Ammon. And there is no greater way to become capable in them, and of how to avoid them, than taking part of that which society has deemed wrong. Come to Ammon for a quick bite, a nice drink, and maybe a weird talk. But only if you're willing to listen.

= Clan Giovanni =

Euan Dunsirn
Apparent Age: Early 20's

Height: 6'0" / 182.88 cm

Build: Athletic

Hair: Brown, wavy

Eyes: Blue

Appearance: 3

Notable Characteristics: Permanent Fangs, Touch of Frost, Inhuman

Status: Well Spoken, Well Connected, Personable, Reliable, Honored and Proven by Station

Position Held: Don

Charming and friendly, Euan often sports a wide smile. Pale and inhuman, he nonetheless seems to breathe and blink naturally. Rarely rude and never confrontational, Euan nonetheless carries himself with the casual confidence of someone who knows how to handle themselves, tending to treat every space he's in as though he owns it. Aside from the obvious attachment to Onorina, the only person whose orders he's been seen to follow are Venanzio's.

Onorina Rosselini
Apparent Age: Early-20's

Height: 5'9 / 175

Build: Curvy

Hair: Raven

Eyes: Red

Appearance: 3

Notable Characteristics: Cold Breeze, Twitch, Touch of Frost, Eerie Presence, Covered in Bandages

Clan Status: Relentless, Accursed

Whether you may consider it lucky or unlucky one may run into a fair maiden walking alone in the dark of night. Her eyes crimson like blood itself, she moves yet there never seems to be a sound, the wind seems to even whip and curl away from her frame. Whether you speak or not her eyes will be watching. One of the more reclusive members of the Giovanni family within Philadelphia not much is known about her but she always seems to be... about in the dark of night... watching. Will you speak to the quiet miss in the dark of night?

Venanzio Machiavellil
Apparent Age: 30s

Height: 5'9" / 175 Centimetres

Build: Lean

Hair: Dark brown

Eyes: Stormy Gray

Appearance: 3 Bold

Notable Characteristics: Inhuman

Station: Capo.

Status: Connected, Enforcer, Fixxer, Prodigy, Magical Savant, Reliable, Proven, Capo, Feared and Indispensable by Station.

Often unseen, the Capo of Philidelphia's Giovanni family has long been an impressive member and upstanding enforcer of Giovanni interests ever since the days of the families insurgence. Any and all who meet with him may note that while he isn't the largest, he stands taller than most, and while he isn't the scariest, his shadow is cast over those who think him incapable. The Capo is calm, cordial, but quick to bite with wit when he sees, feels, or hears that a note of incompetence has come anywhere near to bear near his family. One of the lions in a world of sheep, the man is known to be intensively intelligent, extremely tactical, and a serious force to be reckoned with, all on mere reputation alone.

The reality is as they say, scarier than fiction.

Nick Milliner
Apparent Age: 25

Height: 5'10" / 177.8 cm

Build: Athletic

Hair: Brown

Eyes: Blue

Appearance: 5, Breathtaking

Notable Characteristics: Blush of Health

Status: HA!

Nicodemo "Nick" Milliner is almost painfully normal, very intentionally so. Practically a poster boy for American Eagle or Abercrombie and Fitch, Nick is the antithesis of everything normally associated with his "family". The one most often used to deal with lower echelons of the Camarilla or most human contacts, Nick does everything in his power to distance himself from the dark, creepy doings of the Famiglia.

Gianfranco Giovanni
Apparent Age: 80's?

Height: 6'1" / 185.42 cm, hunches

Build: Thin

Hair: Scraggly yellow-white

Eyes: Rheumy blue

Appearance: 1

Notable Characteristics: Hunchback, Lame, Cold Breeze, Sanguine Incongruity, Inhuman

Weird even for a Giovanni, Gianfranco is reclusive, cranky and just overall unpleasant to be around, much less to behold. Far more concerned with his studies and never ending search for Mementos, Gianfranco is something of an unpopular figure even amongst his own clan, even ignoring his odd resemblance more to the Cappadocians of old than the current Giovanni clan.

= Clan Ravnos =

Arjun Rao
Apparent Age: 70's

Height: 5'5" / 165.1 cm

Build: Slight, frail

Hair: White

Eyes: Brown

Appearance: 2

Notable Characteristics: Lame, Blush of Life (Not Merit)

Kind and almost grandfatherly, the somewhat reclusive leader of the Ravnos Kumpaniya is quick to smile and slow to anger, his bearing rather calm and serene; an air of normalcy seems to roll off the old man. Most often, when he is seen, he's seated; those who have seen him walk know why: he bears a limp, a severe one, from a leg so mangled that it barely supports his weight. How this happened is anyone's guess, but the old man is, apparently, too stubborn to use a crutch.

Jishnu Devapada
Apparent Age: 23

Height: 5'8" / 172.72 cm

Build: Athletic, lean

Hair: Dark brown

Eyes: Brown

Appearance: 3

Notable Characteristics: Lisp

One of the younger seeming members of the Kumpaniya, Jishnu is also one of the more visible members. Generally cheerful and a bit goofy, if one examines the knuckles of the athletic young man they would notice enlarged, slightly deformed, calloused knuckles indicative of a life spent fighting. He doesn't seem to do much of that now, though, more often seen laughing and joking.(edited)

Bhisma Gandham
Apparent Age: 65

Height: 6'10" / 208.28 cm

Build: Muscular

Hair: Gray

Eyes: One brown, one milky white

Appearance: 2

Notable Characteristics: Twitch, One Eye, Huge Size

A towering, quiet giant, Bhisma is most often spotted either at Arjun's side or patrolling Ravnos territory, looking for God only knows what. A career soldier, that training still shows in his squared shoulders, straight spine and regular, regimented gait. His one good eye is forever moving, alert; the other is a milky, blind white.

Ishaani Vaishnav
Apparent Age: 17

Height: 5'3" / 160.02 cm

Build: Slight

Hair: Dark brown

Eyes: Brown

Appearance: 5, Exotic

Notable Characteristics: Blush of Life (Not Merit)

Frequently quiet and soft-spoken, this shy young woman is prone to blushing and stuttering, despite most often being found posted up at the reception desk of The Mantra Lounge. She has a friendly air, and seems to give off an aura of normalcy, on top of looking surprisingly human.

Keshava Rauniars
Apparent Age: 24

Height: 5'11" / 180.34 cm

Build: Athletic

Hair: Dark brown

Eyes: Brown

Appearance: 4, Striking

Notable Characteristics: Enchanting Voice

By far the most outgoing of the Kumpaniya, Keshava is the one most frequently found outside of their haven, chatting up people on the street, keeping an eye out for strange goings-on in their territory and keeping contact with the people who live and work there. Suave and charming, when not out amongst humans, Keshave still doesn't seem quite as human as some of his Kumpaniya, nor nearly quite so open.

= Mariners =

Adamaris
Apparent Age: Mid - 30s

Height: 5'10

Build: Muscular but Lean

Hair: Pale Aquamarine with Blonder Tips

Eyes: Bioluminescent Yellow Pupil - less Eyes

Appearance: 2, Heavily Fish

Notable Characteristics: Adamaris is a peculiar sight indeed. His skin is a pale aquamarine color, afar cry from anything close to what used to be human. His eyes are pupil-less. His ears finned often twitching and reacting on their own to their surroundings. While the strangest detail about him is the bioluminescent nature of his skin. from his eyes to the tips of his ears several parts of him seem to shimmer and glow rather reminiscent of a lantern fish.

Beyond the waves of the Delaware River deep below you may find one of its more elusive keepers. There's not much known about Adamaris the leader of the local Mariners. Not many have ever seen him reach the surface. Often his word is spoken through Either Nixie or Tryphosa. People who speak to him see seem to believe he's a rather charming individual despite the oddities in his appearance. As long as you respect the waves the Delaware and bare mind to its keepers one has no need to meet Adamaris. If not...By the time you meet him it's far too late.

Nixie
Apparent Age: Early - 20s

Height: 5'5

Build: Rectangle

Hair: Dark Purple

Eyes: Teal Pupil - less Eyes

Appearance: 4 Innocent, But Mildly Fish

Notable Characteristics: Her skin is a pale cream color. There's not a drop of obvious color in her expression. Her ears finned twitching ever so slightly at various sounds. A clear mark of her inhumanity. Yet... as one looks into her teal pupil-less eyes when almost begins to feel sorry for her. The mute little miss who can't quite seem to stop fidgeting with her webbed fingers seems almost completely harmless.

Beyond the waves of the Delaware River or Perhaps skimming along its surface you may find one of its more sheepish keepers. Nixie it's a rather quiet miss to say the least. Considering she seems to be without a voice that's a given. Even though she lacks of voice when she has been seen she often seems to click almost as a dolphin. To whom? Yet have to be determined. Despite her skittish nature she is one of the more friendly Mariners often trying to keep passerbys away from some of the more prickly members. She's often found arranging meetings between Kindred whom wish to meet Adamaris.

Tryphosa
Apparent Age: Possibly Late - 20s But it's not exactly a science

Height: 5'10

Build: Athletic

Hair: They be Tentacles

Eyes: Big Black and Beady

Appearance: 0 unless you're into fish. Then 5.

Notable Characteristics: Everything. Her skin is a pale blue that melds into a more sea green color the closer to her back you see rather similarly to the underbelly and the scaly front of a fish. Her eyes are completely and utterly pupil-less. Large and Beady. Her care is comprised of many interconnected tentacles that seem to move on their own. Her Fingers each webbed. One could swear that even her face is almost shaped rather similarly to a fish's. You will be lucky if you find her in cloth functions as a skirt of sorts.

Beyond the waves at the Delaware River you may find one of it's more prickly keepers. Tryphosa is a peculiar miss. One of the more commonly seen Mariners. If she's ever seen it seems to be as she is patrolling the coast keeping her eyes ever vigilant for Human intruders and uninvited Kindred. There's never a moment where she is seen without a task. She's a straightforward miss tending to hate most forms of small talk finding it to be pointless considering she could be using that time to complete any of her other tasks. She seems to be the right hand to Adamaris. Never agreeing to matters without his word.

= Other =

Ethan Royle
Apparent Age: 36

Height: 5'9" / 175.26 cm

Build: Average

Hair: Wavy Brown

Eyes: Blue

Appearance: 2

Notable Characteristics: Inhuman, Cast No Reflection

With all the suave and charm of a used car salesman, Ethan Royle operates a business trading ghouls out of a warehouse on the edge of Philadelphia. Word on the street is, though, that money has little meaning to the friendly Malkavian; rather, he operates on a barter system, trading ghouls for favors or things of equal value.(edited)

Maxim Reed
Apparent Age: 40s

Height: 190 cm / 6'2"

Build: Normal

Hair: Brown

Eyes: Dark Blue

Appearance: 3

Notable Characteristics: Baby Face

A usually very quiet man, Maxim is one of the people who never quite found their place in the city. While many would call him an Anarch he himself never takes on the cause and certainly doesn't recognize any of the barons authority over him. Reserved, polite and comforting to be around, Maxim hides steel behind his eyes that not everyone notices. Despite not belonging to a sect, or maybe thanks to that, this Toreador can be occasionally seen all around the city and is known for dealing with anyone and everyone for a rather humble price. While services he offers are far from competing with those of Nosferatu or Giovanni, they also don't come attached to the consequences of such, which makes him popular with those who would rather pay in cash and influence than favors and promises.

He and his small coterie of young and often weak blooded kindred offer information, all kinds of illegal goods, loans and contacts to anyone willing to deal with someone of low origin and unimpressive lineage. Surprisingly enough, he hasn't been swallowed whole just yet by the stronger forces. He can be found in the small, elite tailoring shop by the name of "The golden thread" that is well known to local kine and serves as a front to his operations.
