The Toreador
“Find your greatest part of joy,
Follow your greatest part of joy,
and know that I watch you, enthralled,
my children, my creations,
my beautiful ones.”
Arikel’s words to her childer
New Orleans was made for the Toreador. The city’s name is practically synonymous with parties and debauchery, yet it also boasts a rich cultural heritage and thriving arts scene. The degenerates can no more survive without these things than vitae. The Big Easy offers more than enough of both to slake the clan’s lusts… or perhaps just enough to fully arouse them.
No city straddles the line between Paris and Sodom like New Orleans. The Toreador can only stare in rapture as she struts by. She knows they’re watching. That’s why they’re her favorites. The Ventrue may proclaim themselves the Big Easy’s masters, but the Toreador know they are her lovers.

Kindred by Toreador Status
Toreador Status ••••
Antoine Savoy
Lineage: 7th gen. childe of Maria Pascual
Embrace: 17th century
Status: Bourbon Sanctified •••••, Camarilla •••••
Coterie: Antoine Savoy’s inner circle
Antoine Savoy is the self-declared Lord of the French Quarter, a former courtier under Louis XIV, and Prince Vidal’s foremost political rival. The Toreador elder has positioned himself as a charming, laissez-faire, and religiously tolerant alternative to the tyrannical Ventrue for over a century. He’s happy to promise a less autocratic style of rule, quick to recognize and reward initiative among his younger followers, and is more than willing to court friends and allies among Kindred who the prince wouldn’t give the time of night to. His star has been steadily on the rise for years, and following the news of Vidal’s impending torpor and the 2016 Battle of Mt. Carmel (whose follow-on conflicts he won), more Kindred than ever think it’s only a matter of time until he becomes prince.
Mélissaire Larieux
Ghouled: 1846
Status: Ghouls ••••
Former quadroon courtesan and current herald to Antoine Savoy.
Fabian Desessard
Ghouled: 1973
Status: Ghouls •••
Antoine Savoy’s greeter and butler.
Julia Landsale
Ghouled: 2008
Status: Ghouls ••
Julia Lansdale is a prominent figure in several of New Orleans’ most popular and politically active charitable foundations. From the Association for a United New Orleans (a Catholic faith-based initiative that seeks an end to racism and religious persecution) to Save Our City (which boasts the slogan “Our buildings may be our past, but our children are our future”), Lansdale is a major mover and shaker in the field. She is also a ghoul, and so zealously devoted to Savoy that he jokes it makes even him nervous at times.
Lansdale, along with Savoy’s other contacts in the field, has proved to be a surprisingly painful thorn in Vidal’s side. Her organizations are supported by New Orleans’ rich and working class alike, but more importantly, they draw funds from major businesses and the city’s own government in the form of grants—essentially using Vidal’s own pawns’ money against them. Her charities have supported numerous grassroots political campaigns, all of which enjoy popular support, and all of which are aimed at booting Vidal’s municipal allies out of office. In fact, the prince lost three highly placed pawns in the city’s 2014 elections and stands to lose more in the next if Lansdale’s movements keep growing.
Those Kindred aware of Landsale’s service to Savoy believe it’s only a matter of time before Vidal moves directly against her interests—and indeed, she only barely survived a scandal manufactured by Vidal’s own interests in the media a few years back—so the Toreador is thought to be making as much use of her now as he can. He knows that should she fall he has other contacts in her circles.
Pearl Chastain
Lineage: 6th gen. childe of unknown sire
Embrace: Many centuries ago
Status: Camarilla ••••, Invictus •••••, Toreador ••••
Coteries: The Cabildo ••••, the Prima Invicta
Pearl Chastain was one of the most celebrated Kindred in New Orleans during its golden age. She is a morose shell of her former self in the Modern Nights, and carries on her duties as senior Toreador primogen and regent of the the Lower Garden District with little interest or enthusiasm.
Cloe
Ghouled: Many centuries ago
Status: Ghouls ••••
Pearl Chastain’s herald. Cloe appears only twelve years old but is actually one of the eldest ghouls in the city, surpassing even the Hussar in longevity. She met her mistress when Chastain was enchanted by her beautiful appearance and purchased her from her commoner family, who had too many mouths to feed and not enough coin to feed them with. Chastain elected to keep Cloe eternally “young and innocent” to present a cherubic and seemingly benign image to the violent-tempered Kindred of early New Orleans. When her mistress fell into torpor, Cloe took Chastain’s eldest childe Accou as her domitor for the next 80 years. In a rare show of beneficence to the ghoul for her centuries of faithful service, he permitted her to age several years and experience some of what it was like to “grow up” (something she had long desired). Chastain, however, hailed from an era when adolescence did not exist as a concept and was distressed to find her ghoul “ruined” when she rose from her torpor. Though Chastain chose to retain Cloe’s services (the ossified elder still preferred to hold onto something familiar than throw it away), knowledge of her domitor’s displeasure diminished her formerly near-peerless standing among the Big Easy’s ghouls. Beyond her duties as her mistress’ mouthpiece, Cloe is an accomplished dollmaker and known to leave folded origami figures and bent paperclips wherever she goes as “calling cards.”
Accou Poincaré
Lineage: 7th gen. childe of Pearl Chastain
Embrace: 1734
Status: Camarilla ••••, Invictus ••••, Toreador ••••
Coteries: The Cabildo ••••, the Prima Invicta, the princely contenders
The younger of the city’s two Toreador primogen (though an elder in his own right), Accou is a former Creole pianist who remains his malaiseful sire’s unfailingly loyal voice of support—and perhaps the only reason she’s still undead. His younger clanmates deride him as a sellout, while older Toreador laud him as a pillar of tradition. In recent nights, his name has been floated as a potential successor to Vidal if the prince enters torpor.
Polly Willoby
Ghouled: 1898
Status: Ghouls ••
Former victim of Roger Halliburton and ‘playmate’ of Cloe.
Katherine Beaumont
Lineage: 8th gen. childe of Bruno Courtet
Embrace: 1912
Status: Camarilla •••, Invictus ••, Toreador ••••
Coterie: The harpies •••
A former opera singer at the French Opera House, Katherine Beaumont is Clan Toreador’s premier artiste and her judgment in all matters concerning fine art is considered supreme. She is less liked by her younger clanmates, however, for she considers jazz and blues “low art” and disdains them accordingly. She has been engaged in a bitter three-way feud with her fellow harpies Marguerite Defallier and Veronica Alsten-Pirrie, both of whom she considers low-born trollops, for as long as any can remember. She was a very heavyset woman at the time of her Embrace and Anarchs still find ready cause to mock the fat harpy for her weight.
Clifford East
Ghouled: 2005
Status: Ghouls •
Clifford was once a moderately successful hedge fund manager in New York City with a lifelong interest in the arts. Then he met Katherine. After three draughts of vitae, he left his marriage of 15 years and uprooted his life to follow Katherine back to New Orleans. He’s long since signed over control of his assets to his domitor, though she has little interest in managing money herself and leaves him to do so. He’s also the president of the New Orleans Opera Association, thanks to her manipulations, and runs it how she tells him. Katherine originally had no plans to let the All-Night Society know that Clifford was a ghoul, but he was “outed” by Marguerite Defallier as part of the harpies’ ongoing feud. Katherine made the best of it and publicly married him to further solidify her mortal identity’s control over the opera. Clifford even took his domitor’s false surname for his own (she didn’t like how “Judith Stevens” sounded) and is the model of the henpecked husband around his “wife” in public, whose most frequent words are, “Yes, dear.”
Toreador Status •••
Adelais Seyrès
Lineage: 7th gen. childe of Pearl Chastain
Embrace: 1874
Status: Camarilla •••, Invictus •••, Toreador •••
Coteries: The harpies •••, the Prima Invicta
Few are the Kindred who do not fear Adelais Seyrès’ attentions in Elysium. Pearl Chastain’s youngest childe has a reputation as the most cold-hearted and razor-tongued of the city’s harpies—no mean feat in a city that considers itself to have some of the most exquisite Kindred culture outside Europe. A gallery owner and critic of exquisitely discerning taste, there’s no Toreador in the clan better at pointing out the flaws in others’ work.
The Charities
Ghouled: 1949
Status: Ghouls •••
Beautiful triplet girls the icy-hearted Adelais Seyrès has rendered as hollow as she is. Their names, she considers fittingly, are Aglaia, Thalia, and Euphrosyne, after the three Kharites.
Veronica Alsten-Pirrie
Lineage: 8th gen. childe of Accou Poincaré
Embrace: 1924
Status: Anarch ••••, Camarilla •••, Toreador •••
Coteries: Antoine Savoy’s inner circle, the harpies •••
Veronica was a flapper and jazz singer Embraced by Accou during the Roaring Twenties for her pretty voice and fiery spirit. She served as a loyal member of the Invictus until Pearl Chastain’s rise from torpor in the ‘70s. Veronica found her grandsire a hopelessly antiquated has-been and stifling influence that her clan and covenant would be better off without. Her sire, who willingly surrendered power back to Chastain, did not agree. Veronica promptly defected to the Anarch Movement and led a wave of younger Toreador with her. She remains on strained terms with her Invictus kin, although the bitterest venom seems to come from her. When not performing at nightclubs and basking among her kine admirers, she is engaged in a bitter three-way feud with her fellow harpies Katherine Beaumont and Marguerite Defallier. Veronica considers her former to be full of herself and the latter pathetic for clinging to a covenant whose leaders don’t respect her.
In 2015, Veronica learned the exiled Ventrue John Harley Matheson had been feeding on neonates lured to his out-of-town plantation, her childe Amaryllis among them. Outraged by the apparent blind eye had Prince Vidal turned to his clanmate’s depravities, she led a split among the Anarchs to throw their support behind Antoine Savoy and now stands as one of his most vocal partisans and valuable allies.
Clementine Jasper-Kumar
Ghouled: 1946
Status: Ghouls •••
If ghouls had harpies, Clementine Jasper-Kumar would be their ruler. As wasp-tongued and volatile as her mistress, Clementine was ghouled at the cusp of adolescence when Veronica happened to pass her by at the night market. Her hair is dark, her skin somewhere between white and black, but despite the common belief that she is of African descent she claims that both of her parents were from Fiji. She has been at Veronica’s side since the Kindred claimed her around the end of WWII, and her time as herald has done nothing but embolden her. She keeps her mistress’ other ghouls in line, and even the occasional fledgling has found themselves on the wrong side of her ire. Veronica is fond of saying the girl is a “mini me,” complete with her sexually deviant reputation, though the ghoul is said to enjoy the company of older men.
Marisol Beaugendre
Lineage: 10th gen. childe of Henri de Tours
Embrace: 1936
Status: Camarilla ••, Toreador •••, Unaligned -
Something of a recluse from the all-night society, Marisol Beaugendre is a Parisian expatriate who fled to South America during the 1940s to escape the violence of World War II. She passed through New Orleans for several years and was sufficiently enchanted by the city’s character to return after Hurricane Katrina, citing a desire to play some small part in the rebuilding and preservation of New Orleans’ unique cultural heritage. Marisol is one of her clan’s best artists and has won acclaim for her diversity as well as depth of talents (she’s a writer as well as a painter and sculptor), but has declined to join any covenant, citing an politics as a distraction from her work. She took a childe and lover some years ago in the violin prodigy Jeremy Lenoir and appeared to have a deeply fulfilling relationship with him, but broke it off in 2015 with little explanation. Jeremy remains despondent.
Jean Autry
Ghouled: 1816
Status: Ghouls •••
Jean is Marisol’s bodyguard and a former soldier in the Napoleonic Wars. He was a gift from her sire Henri when Marisol fled France during World War II. Jean claims to have served as a grenadier in the Garde Impériale under Napoleon’s direct command, albeit as a member of the Middle Guard rather than Old Guard. Whether his claim is true or not, Jean would have been a very large man during the Napoleonic era and is over twice his domitor’s age. He zealously watches over his “young” charge, who is all that remains of his original domitor and whose continued safety was Henri’s last command.
Souraya da Silva
Ghouled: 1963
Status: Ghouls ••
Souraya is a dark-skinned beauty from French Guinia who serves as her domitor’s business manager, sells her artwork, and takes care of night-to-night (and day-to-day) matters Marisol would rather not involve herself in. Souraya is more of an extrovert than her domitor and is happy to spare Marisol from interacting with more buyers than she’d like to. Souraya half-jokes the “reclusive artist” angle helps the art sell better, anyways.
Toreador Status ••
There are currently no Toreador of this level of esteem among the clan.
Toreador Status •
Marguerite Defallier
Lineage: 8th gen. childe of Accou Poincaré
Embrace: 1876
Status: Camarilla •••, Invictus •••, Toreador •
Coterie: The harpies •••
Marguerite is one of Clan Toreador’s most influential and least respected members. As a mortal, she owned several houses of ill repute in post-Civil War New Orleans and was Embraced by Accou after he discovered she’d been successfully blackmailing the local authorities, for he desired a clever and well-connected lieutenant to help manage his affairs in the wake of Pearl Chastain’s torpor. Marguerite continued to run her brothels but expanded her interests into politics and legitimate businesses while sponsoring artists in a bid for greater respect among her clanmates. Her hopes were dashed when her grandsire rose from torpor in the ‘70s and made clear that she regarded the former whorehouse matron as a poseur of the worst sort.
Tonight, Marguerite enjoys a better reputation among the Invictus, where her influence over Louisiana’s political machine makes her a force to be reckoned with in the state capitol even tonight. She’s potentially the most politically connected Kindred in the city after Vidal himself. She still runs her prostitution ring, now in the form of an escort agency, which has simultaneously facilitated her political influence (she has dirt on quite a few politicos) and allowed her to accumulate a great deal of prestation debt among her fellow Kindred as a groom (cultivator of herds), particularly from neonates (who she sometimes likes to “mother”). She has a head for business too, and is perhaps the richest member of her clan after Accou, Chastain, and Savoy. Yet in Clan Toreador, all of this counts for naught against a simple fact: her lack of artistic talent. She was particularly bitter to have been passed over for a seat on the Prima Invicta, the Invictus’ ruling body, in favor of Adelais Seyrès in 2005. She also remains engaged in a bitter three-way feud with her fellow harpies Katherine Beaumont and Veronica Alstin-Pirrie, despising the former for her arrogance and the latter for her “unbecoming” behavior and defection from the First Estate.
Sterling Batifole
Ghouled: 1985
Status: Ghouls •
A once highly respected local art dealer and talent scout amongst New Orleans’ artistic circles and their riche nouveau patrons, Sterling was ghouled in the 80’s by Marguerite Defallier at the pinnacle of his professional fortune and fame. Tragically for the Creole yuppie, his profits and prestige declined as he was forced to divert his best pieces and agents to his domitor, who in turn has used them to conceal her lacking aesthetic talents and curry favor with her Toreador peers. Largely, these ploys have failed, but not for lack of effort or motivation–especially since that his now disenchanted domitor only “feeds” him when he brings her a piece or person found acceptable by her peers. Unfortunately for Sterling, he has little sense of what her guild and clan appreciate. Moreover, he is sadly ignorant of the fact that many of his finds would be well-received if only Katherine Beaumont and Marguerite’s other rivals didn’t spurn them out of petty spite. Consequently, Sterling’s hair has since turned to his namesake’s silver–at least in the patches he hasn’t torn out from chronic stress and sleepless nights searching for increasingly more prospects for his domitor. Such labors and tangible desperation, though, have only worsened his repute amongst mortal clientele, and rumors suggest he has turned to specious investments, illicit dealings, and unsavory partners to maintain the resources necessary to maintain his dwindling art studio, gallery sales, and talent agency office on Julia Street. Far worse for the ghoul, Sterling has become increasingly convinced that his domitor will soon replace him with someone younger and more in tune to her “tastes”. In his darker moments of self-pity, he wonders if Marguerite’s peers will appreciate his oft-contemplated suicide or snidely deride it like the rest of his downward spiraling life.
Norman “Ray” Warner
Ghouled: 1989
Status: Ghouls ••
Ray isn’t his real name, but that’s what everyone calls him on account of his sunny disposition. He’s like a little ray of sunshine, always in a good mood, and he’s happy to spread that joy to other people around him. It’s hard to stay in a bad mood around Ray. He’s not the typical candidate for a Toreador ghoul—he’s older, balding, and thick without a lick of artistic talent to speak of—but he’s charming enough with a sort of lazy confidence that most people think doesn’t come easily to someone who isn’t drop-dead gorgeous. He’s easy enough on the eyes despite his shortcomings, and he’s got the kind of mouth that’s built for generous smiles. It’s his hands that people need to watch out for, really: they’re roughly the size of cinder-blocks, and more than one dentist has made a fortune from the people on the other end of those fists. Ray serves his domitor as a driver, muscle, and all-around keeper for the girls that she considers a “worthy investment.” He takes his job seriously: he’s been known to wade into the middle of danger for the girls and break open a few skulls on their behalf. He’s got some basic medical training, enough to determine if the sex was just rough and a hit of blood will set them right or if they need to get to the hospital, and he’s the first and last checkpoint the girls go through on their way to clients. Ray doesn’t have much of a temper. It’s hard to set him off; he’s more likely to laugh with you than take offence at your words, but he takes damage to what he sees as his property very seriously.
Pietro Silvestri
Lineage: 8th gen. childe of Barthélemy Lafon
Embrace: 1931
Status: Anarch •••, Camarilla •, Toreador •
A Sicilian malcontent and ne’er-do-well, Pietro was already an accomplished art thief in life and his Embrace only made him better in that regard. In the century since his Becoming, he has also expressed himself among the Toreador by becoming an accomplished art forger. Many of them consider such work “derivative” but he says, “Who cares? It sells. Money is beautiful, too.” Whenever something goes missing in the city, Kindred assume Pietro is involved. He often is.
Since the recent factional split among the Anarchs, he has taken up with Antoine Savoy.
Alan Thomas
Ghouled: 1986
Status: Ghouls ••
Alan has one of those smiles that makes you want to punch the guy in his face. The smarmy kind, like he thinks he knows more than you. He’s charming, though, and he’s probably got what you need. Art? Cars? Jewels? Drugs? Guy could sell ice to an Eskimo in the middle of winter. Was a used car salesman at some point, but Silvestri obviously liked the cut of his jib since he took the guy in. Always trying to sell something to someone, whether it’s physical goods or an idea. “Do it for the commish,” he’s fond of saying. Gets on well with most people, honestly, silver-tongued flatterer that he is. Some people think he’s pretty stand up. Or maybe he just pulled the wool over their eyes, too. Has the hots for Clementine Jasper-Kumar. “She only looks underage,” but apparently that’s how he likes them. Serves as a herald of sorts for his domitor, Pietro, and talks about a million miles an hour.
Maxzille “Max” “Zilly” “Zillah” Babineaux
Lineage: 10th gen. childe of Abraham Garcia
Embrace: 1969
Status: Anarch •••, Camarilla ••, Toreador •
Coterie: The Kindred Liberation Front •••
Maxzille was a true child of the ‘60s: a hippie, antiwar activist, and talented folk musician who was also the first in her poverty-stricken Cajun family to attend college “out in the big city.” Although Accou received her cordially after her Embrace into the clan, she couldn’t countenance joining the Invictus, which she regarded as the establishment she’d spent her mortal life fighting against. Besides, many of her clanmates were “big city Creoles” who’d always looked down on “small town Cajuns” like her.
Maxzille was the first among her clan to join the Anarchs and privately has a somewhat ‘told you so’ attitude towards the later wave of Toreador who went Anarch in the ‘70s after Pearl Chastain alienated them. Maxzille isn’t much bothered by her relative lack of respect among her clan and is happy to “make all the music I want” at Brujah rants and Gangrel things, where she enjoys good relations with both clans and prefers the livelier audiences anyway.
A founding member of the Kindred Liberation Friend, the city’s oldest still-extant Anarch krewe, she and her lover Jonah Freeman were content to quietly support Coco’s goal of making Mid-City as hospitable to Anarch ideals as they could under Sanctified rule. Following the 2015 Anarch split and the defections of Veronica Alsten-Pirrie, Shep Jennings, and Pietro Silvestri over to Savoy’s camp, Max and her lover and the recently returned Esther Sue Parker have wound up as the next rung of leadership among the ‘Loyalist Anarchs’ after Coco and Miss Opal.
Maxzille enjoys the dubious distinction of being the Anarch with the most nickname and responds equally to any of the following: Max, Maxy, Zillah, Zilly, and Zill.
Jennifer Haley
Ghouled: 2002
Status: Ghouls ••
Formerly the herald of Marine Riqueti, a visiting Brujah involved in the women’s suffragist movement, Jennifer Haley lost her domitor to Katrina’s ravages. Sympathetic to that loss (or perhaps simply wishing to appear charitable by adopting a “Katrina orphan”) Coco Duquette took Jennifer under her wing, where she has since served as herald for the Brujah primogen. Ghouled in her prime and “fortunate” enough to have a steady supply of vitae, Jennifer resembles a young, twenty-year-old woman with curly blonde hair who dresses in college-age fashions. Her mien, like her master’s, is understated, disarming, and surprisingly charming. After Coco was destroyed in the 2016 Battle of Mid-City, she wound up in the possession of her current domitor Maxzille.
Jade Kalani
Lineage: 9th gen. childe of Veronica Alsten-Pirrie
Embrace: 2010
Status: Bourbon Sanctified •, Camarilla •, Toreador •
Jade Kalani is Veronica’s elder childe. She was Embraced prior to the general moratorium lift (one of the few awarded that honor) and formally released in 2010 on the 5-year anniversary of Katrina. Her antics at her debut Elysium garnered the attention of many of the city’s younger ears, and it’s thought that this was the night that took her already-operating business (a spa formally owned by one of her pawns) from “unknown” to “rousing success.” Since that evening she has made friends all across the city through her skill with both blade and brush, and despite her sire’s rather cool relations with her grandsire and the rest of her line, Jade has been able to build her own bridge. Indeed, the young Toreador has forged her own path since her Embrace, falling in with the Bourbons despite her sire’s Anarch leanings. She’s known to be the prettiest lick in the city—though she would never be so gauche as to say it herself—a feat made all the more pronounced by her politesse. She has made friends in almost every covenant and can often be found flitting her way through Elysium with a smile on her lips like the social butterfly she is. She has happily resided in the French Quarter since her Embrace.
Alana Frederick
Ghouled: 2010
Status: Ghouls •
Alana has been with her mistress since early in the Toreador’s Requiem. Though not the first ghoul that Jade took she seems to be the favored, if the obsequious way she serves her mistress is any indication. It speaks to a loyalty beyond mere blood. Alana serves a variety of functions for Jade, including personal assistant and business manager. She is not considered Jade’s herald, but she is the person to speak to regarding meetings and other business to do with Jade. Day manager for her domitor at Flawless Spa.
Morgan “Haymaker” Hastings
Ghouled: 2007
Status: Ghouls •
UFC fighter turned poker prodigy.
Aniyah Bailey
Lineage: 9th gen. childe of Marguerite Defallier
Embrace: 2010
Status: Camarilla 0, Circle of the Crone •, Toreador •
A prepubescent aspiring poet-rapper Embraced by Marguerite Defallier for reasons not entirely clear, Aniyah grew up surrounded by Vodoun but wasn’t a believer until the Embrace tore all doubts from her eyes. Her newfound faith in the ancestor spirits led her to join the Acolytes—as well as her dislike of the Invictus, since in her eyes the pursuit of power and money is what created slavery and maintains the economic impoverishment and racial oppression of NOLA and her people. Since she’s too young to perform much of her work publicly, she creates poems, has others perform them, then makes mixing tapes as sacrifices for the loa. She’s on good terms with a number of Anarchs, especially Jonah Freeman, but is too lukewarm over the fact that a white Frenchwoman friendly towards Vidal co-leads the covenant to want to join them. Marguerite has found her childe’s beliefs and political affiliation to be a source of some embarrassment, but remains on speaking terms with her.
Jeremy Lenoir
Lineage: 11th gen. childe of Marisol Beaugendre
Embrace: 2013
Status: Camarilla 0, Toreador •, Unaligned -
Violinist and child prodigy Embraced by Marisol at the tender age of twelve to stop him burning out. Their once-close relationship appears to have soured since 2015, though Jeremy remains desperate to recapture his sire’s affections.
Josua Cambridge
Lineage: Unknown
Embrace: 2015
Status: Camarilla 0, Toreador •, Unaligned -
Coterie: Marcel’s household
A painter Embraced without permission and abandoned by his sire, Josua had the good luck to be taken in by Marcel Guilbeau and become one of his lovers. Marcel and his agents are still searching for the neonate’s missing sire, but they’re searching for something else too: portraits Josua painted of her and several other Kindred, all of which were stolen following his Embrace. Marcel fears the portraits may have wound up in the hands of vampire hunters and could be used to track their subjects. Josua, however, is largely content to enjoy Marcel’s protection as his “boytoy” and to continue his painting. He’s extremely promiscuous even by his clan’s standards and claims to have lost count of the number of Kindred he’s shared blood with. Given how handsome he is, he might even be telling the truth.

Abraham “Bran” Garcia
Lineage: 9th gen. childe of Marguerite Defallier
Embrace: 1940
Status: Camarilla ••, Invictus ••, Toreador 0
When Abraham Garcia was a kid in New York city, he loved to tell stories. He took up photography when he was 13, since he had already decided to be a journalist, and discovered he had a gift for endowing even the most prosaic subject with grandeur. His reporting on the violence of Vietnam hardened him, however, and convinced him even the press was full of liars. When Marguerite Defaller Embraced him out of simultaneous admiration for his photography and desire to give the Invictus a hold over the growing news media, he didn’t look back. He remains deeply frustrated by the fact that his clan’s elders do not consider photography a valid art form and treat him like a poseur, even though he’s won numerous mortal awards under a variety of pseudonyms. Bran claims domain over the Times-Picayune, though the decline of newspapers has made this less relevant than it once was. Still, he’s been an essential figure in maintaining the city’s Masquerade for decades.
Arthur Duchamps
Lineage: 13th gen. childe of Louis Ash
Embrace: 2013
Status: Bourbon Sanctified •, Camarilla 0, Toreador 0
Coterie: Levee Hepcats ••
Arthur spent his mortal life on the periphery of the music world, drifting between roles as an agent, manager, and talent scout, always on the search for a big break through someone else. He finally caught it and missed it forever with his Embrace: although now one of the immortal Kindred, his pitifully weak blood limits his worth in his elders’ eyes, and his fellow Toreador regard him as a poseur for his lack of artistic talent. He’s still a regular at clan gatherings, as his Embrace has made him better than ever at finding musicians, and he’s become a hidden patron to no small number. He remains bitter over his lot, though, and constantly plots ways to advance his fortunes in Kindred society. Doubtlessly related to those ambitions, Arthur maintains contact with his sire, a former Bourbon who relocated to Mobile and likely influenced Arthur’s decision to join Papa Juju’s post-Katrina krewe of Bourbon neonates.
Ayame Seong-Jin
Lineage: 10th gen. childe of Angel
Embrace: 2010
Status: Anarch 0, Camarilla 0, Toreador 0
Ayame is a second-generation Korean-American born in Houston. The youngest of three children, Ayame grew up in the shadow of her older brothers and followed one of them into the less-than-stellar life of street crime in her early teens. For many years she was able to make it work, straddling the line between gifted high schooler and criminal, but everything came crashing down around her when she caught the eye of a local Los Zetas member who numbered among the Damned. He took her for his own, keeping her as a ghoul for three long, painful years. On her twenty-third birthday her sire granted her the Embrace. She left the city at her sire’s urging, heading to Baton Rouge before settling in New Orleans and taking up with the Anarchs. She spends most of her time penning urban fiction novels.
David Hansen
Lineage: 12th gen. childe of Anne Sommers
Embrace: 2005
Status: Camarilla 0, Invictus 0, Toreador 0
Fame-craving former political consultant.
Genevieve “Gina” Elsworth
Lineage: 13th gen. childe of unknown sire
Embrace: 2015
Status: Camarilla 0, Hardline Sanctified •, Toreador 0
Coterie: Red Right Hand ••
Gina was a teenage graffiti artist Embraced in the heat of passion by her sire after he nearly killed her. Picked up by servants of the prince only nights into her Requiem, virtually all Gina has ever known about the All-Night Society is her membership in the Red Right Hand. Quiet, almost meek, she’s the most withdrawn of the group, rarely seen alone and preferring to shadow her fellows, especially Kenneth.
Jimmy Watt
Ghouled: 2017
Status: Ghouls •
Gina’s designated ‘security’ ghoul, Jimmy was one of a number of individual’s ‘auditioned’ to the Red Right Hand by Caroline Malveaux-Devillers’ through her own head of security, Brian Fuller. A prior Navy corpsman, he was more quiet, reserved, and introspective than many of the others when introduced. Gina was drawn to Jimmy when she saw him with a sketchbook. In his spare time (especially when waiting around) he’s often found with a pencil in hand sketching whatever strikes his fancy. Though less stocky than many of the security ghouls utilized by the group, Jimmy, like the others, saw actual combat in Afghanistan and is no pushover. Less well-known and advertised is that Jimmy regards himself as well and truly damned, deserving of his fate as a servant to Kindred masters, due to an firefight in which he shot and killed a woman and her infant child by mistake in Afghanistan—a split-second decision that has haunted him ever since. Jimmy’s frame is all wiry muscle built over a marathon runner’s long legs and lanky arms. His blonde hair is sharply offset by a patchy mustache he’s cultivated since his first days in the navy that Gina has coined ‘endearing’. Other opinions are more mixed, ranging from ‘you should shave that shit off your face’ to ‘you look like the child of a porn star and a child molester’.
Kathleen “Kitty” Palmer
Ghouled: 2016
Status: Ghouls •
Kathleen is the most recent building manager for the Giani Building. Smiling and motherly (at least around Gina), she presents a welcoming image for the building and prospective tenants utterly at odds with her existence as the ghouled servant of unholy monsters. A divorcée with no children, Kathleen was rendered sterile in a botched abortion that also destroyed her marriage. What even her husband didn’t know was that it wasn’t his child, and that the abortion was an attempt to hide that fact and save her marriage after her infidelity. In her own way, Kitty views Gina as the daughter she never had, the bond warping into a twisted maternal affection for her. The vampire’s failure to reciprocate any similar affection—and attempts to avoid her—no doubt contributes to her spending most nights with a bottle of wine. Kathleen provides most of Gina’s clothing—and other needs for that matter—frequently showing up at night with wrapped ‘presents’ for Gina. She tells the Toreador that they’re things she saw that she thought would look good on her, but the truth is her shopping is much more deliberate, and she feels a surge of pride on the rare occasions when Gina deigns to wear the outfits she’s provided. Kathleen looks like a woman past her prime—but only just. Her skin hangs a little too loosely on her arms and legs, her face has just the beginnings of wrinkles, her dark hair has just begun to thin, and there’s the slightest hint of a paunch at her stomach. She’s not ugly by any stretch of the imagination, but she’s the type of woman that young men have only recently stopped chasing, no matter how many cosmetics she dolled herself up with. At least that was true until the blood gave her just a bit of an edge on the average woman at a bar—enough to help her satisfy her growing and shameful appetite that Gina has privately used to help justify the woman’s damnation, citing, ‘she can serve until she learns the lesson she didn’t the first time’.
Justine Chaudrier
Lineage: 13th gen. childe of unknown sire
Embrace: 2014
Status: Bourbon Sanctified 0, Camarilla 0, Toreador 0
Coterie: Levee Hepcats ••
Justine might well be just another rat within the Quarter, were it not for her atypical membership in an otherwise Top Shelf (if still neonate) Bourbon krewe alongside Julius Baudoin, Arthur Duchamps, and Laura Melton. That said, her absence from Elysia and other social functions means that this association (and Justine herself) is often overlooked, even amongst other Bourbons. Still, it does mean that Justine–unlike other rats trapped along Rampart Street–can be found near Rue de la Levee most nights, particularly as the Toreador charcoal painter practices her art within Bienville Place, Washington Artillery Park, Place de France, and Latrobe Park.
Frances Coulter Joor
Ghouled: 1956
Status: Ghouls 0
Passed-around potter & Rampart St. ghoul.
Fallen Toreador by Status
Toreador Status ••••
Maria Pascual
Lineage: 6th gen. childe of unknown sire
Embrace: Many centuries ago
Final Death: 1895
Status: Camarilla •••••, Hardline Sanctified •••••, Toreador ••••
Coterie: The Cabildo ••••
Maria Pascual may well be the most influential Kindred in New Orleans who no longer walks the night. One of the eldest Toreador to come to the city, Pascual was a favorite of Prince Beatrix of Paris before court politics turned against her and led her to flee to Haiti, where she stayed for a time before coming to New Orleans. Her early support of Prince Vidal was crucial to the Ventrue’s establishment of his rule and it was her childe Éléonore Boulet who lost his life defending Vidal against Du Valle’s rebels. Pascual went on to serve as one of her clan’s primogen, the city’s first bishop for the Lancea et Sanctum, and the regent of the French Quarter. She stepped down from the Cabildo after the Civil War, citing disenchantment with the city’s changed character, and was assassinated by parties unknown in the 1890s. Her childe Antoine Savoy swiftly took over her holdings in the French Quarter and owes much of what he now is to his sire. Vidal remembers Pascual as one of his oldest and most potent allies, but many believe he simultaneously curses Antoine Savoy’s sire for spawning one of the greatest ever threats to his rule.
Toreador Status ••••
Barthélemy Lafon
Lineage: 7th gen. childe of Pearl Chastain
Embrace: 1820
Final Death: 2005 (185 years undead)
Status: Anarch Movement •••, Camarilla •••, Toreador ••••
As a rule, the Kindred do not like to Embrace famous mortals. Barthélemy Lafon was a notable exception. In life, he was a Creole architect, engineer, city planner, and surveyor who designed much of the Lower Garden District, an act that won him the adoration of the early city’s Toreador. Secretly, he was also a privateer, smuggler, pirate, and associate of Jean Lafitte’s. He was Embraced by Pearl Chastain after he contracted yellow fever, who could not bear to let him die so ignoble a death. No stranger to living a double life as a mortal, Barthélemy continued his Requiem in largely the same vein. To mortals, he was underworld kingpin who trafficked in drugs and smuggled goods (thanks to his connections to his brother-in-blood Accou, who ran the Port of New Orleans). Among the Kindred, he continued to win acclaim as an architect. He alternately designed and restored numerous havens, historic sites, and Elysium venues, including multiple clubs of Sundown’s. He admired Antoine Savoy’s style, but pirate that he was, freely did business (artistic and criminal) with Prince Vidal’s and the French Quarter lord’s supporters. Many Kindred believed he was waiting to throw in with the winning side. After his sire rose from torpor in the ’70s, he judged her a spent force and promptly abandoned the Invictus for the Anarch Movement. The Anarchs always admired him for his past as a pirate anyway. He met final death while fleeing to Houston during Hurricane Katrina and was mourned by many, including his protégés and sometime lovers Veronica Alsten-Pirrie and Pietro Silvestri. Bringing up his destruction can still make them angry.
Toreador Status ••
Camilla Doriocourt
Lineage: 9th gen. childe of Donovan
Embrace: Mid 20th century
Final Death: 2016 (~70 years undead)
Status: Camarilla •••, Hardline Sanctified •••, Toreador ••
Coterie: Guard de Ville •••
There are few Kindred who can rival Donovan’s frigid aloofness, but one of those few who can is his sole childe, Camilla Doriocourt. The icy beauty serves as the senior-most of the three hounds (deputies) under her sire, as well as one of the Lancea et Sanctum’s priests and chief interrogators. She isn’t as feared as her sire, but some neonates have quipped that’s like comparing a tiger shark to a great white—you’re still dead if one sinks its teeth into you. She met final death in the aftermath of the 2016 Battle of Mt. Carmel.
Donovan
Lineage: 8th gen. childe of Antoine Savoy
Embrace: Late 19th century
Final Death: 2016 (~120 years undead)
Status: Camarilla ••••, Hardline Sanctified •••, Toreador ••
Coteries: Augusto Vidal’s inner circle, Guard de Ville ••••, the princely contenders
The sheriff of New Orleans and regent of Riverbend, Donovan is the hardest knuckle to Vidal’s iron fist and enjoys a reputation nearly as severe as the prince’s own. The fact that he is the childe of his master’s archrival only adds to the gossip about the chillingly composed sheriff’s character. In recent nights, his name has been floated as a potential successor to Vidal if the prince enters torpor—and, indeed, he is considered the front-runner in any contest to do so. He met final death during the 2016 Battle of Mt. Carmel.
Donovan’s Mimic
Ghouled: 1915
Deceased: 2016 (101 years ghouled)
Status: Ghouls •••
This emotionless ghoul physically resembles a poor copy of his domitor: they share the same build, skin and hair color, and even wear the same clothing, but possess different facial features and are obviously not the same man. He looks as if someone tried to build a duplicate of Donovan but simply gave up halfway through. The mimic, whose original name seems to have been expunged like the man’s personality, typically conducts his master’s business from the austere safety of Audubon Place. He was slain in the 2016 Battle of Mt. Carmel.
Garrett Reynoso
Ghouled: 1961
Deceased: 2016 (55 years ghouled)
Status: Ghouls ••
Donovan’s principle NOPD liaison, slain in the 2016 Battle of Mt. Carmel.
Jamal Harrison
Ghouled: 1981
Deceased: 2016 (35 years ghouled)
Status: Ghouls ••
A cruel and sexually sadistic Blackwatch tough, Jamal serves his domitor as a hulking source of muscle and the security chief of Audubon Place when he isn’t slaking his lusts upon the unwilling. He was slain in the 2016 Battle of Mt. Carmel.
Paul Simmons
Ghouled: 1976
Deceased: 2016 (40 years ghouled)
Status: Ghouls ••
Senior director at Fidelity Bank who serves as Donovan’s financial manager, eyes and hands in the mortal world outside of the NOPD, and the keeper of his herd. Paul himself is a sadist and sociopath who relishes the pain, fear, and humiliation of the girls he feeds to his domitor, most of whom suffer far worse at his hands than Donovan’s. He was slain in the aftermath of the 2016 Battle of Mt. Carmel.
Toreador Status •
Amaryllis “Ryllie” DeCuir
Lineage: 9th gen. childe of Veronica Alsten-Pirrie
Embrace: 2012
Final Death: 2016 (4 years undead)
Status: Anarch •, Camarilla 0, Toreador •
Coterie: Golds ••
Ryllie was a jazz singer and recent graduate from Xavier University who caught her sire’s eye while performing at the Spotted Cat. She was talented enough, though prettier than she was talented: that was enough to catch her sire’s eye, and Veronica Embraced her in a fit of passion. The two remained close enough over the following years, which was its own achievement on Ryllie’s end given her sire’s temperament, but that changed following the 2015 scandal with John Harley Matheson: word on the street is that he fed on Ryllie like she was kine and blood bound her so that she enjoyed it and begged for more. Veronica abandoned her childe out of disgust and Ryllie remained loyal to the Hardliner-allied Anarchs after the factional split. She met final death during the 2016 Battle of Mid-City.
Toreador Status 0
Evan Bourelle
Lineage: 12th gen. childe of unknown sire
Embrace: 2011
Final Death: 2015 (4 years undead)
Status: Camarilla 0, Hardline Sanctified •, Toreador 0
Coterie: Storyville Krewe •••
The co-leader of the Storyville Krewe alongside his lover Roxanne Gerlette, Evan was considered a poseur by his clanmates (notwithstanding some middling skill at the guitar) who mainly coasted by on his good looks. Known to have a thing for older women. For all his seeming shallowness, however, Evan had a modest and likable personality that made his share of friends. None besides his coterie, though, made a serious attempt to look for him following his disappearance in 2015. Internal stresses exacerbated without Evan’s mediating influence ultimately tore the Storyvilles apart. The coterie’s surviving members all met final death through a variety of self-destructive behaviors (including a rash attack on Caitlin Meadows), and with their demises ended any curiosity into what became of Evan.
Gwendolyn Wade
Lineage: 13th gen. childe of unknown sire
Embrace: 2013
Final Death: 2016 (3 years undead)
Status: Camarilla 0, Hardline Sanctified •, Toreador 0
Coterie: Storyville Krewe ••
Conservative Christian daughter of a Quiverfull family raised among that denomination, Gwen was Embraced in Houston under circumstances she refuses to speak about and only later traveled to New Orleans. Initially despondent over her inability to have children, she’s since found purpose among the Lancea et Sanctum and has fiercely embraced the covenant’s dogma, alongside the rest of her coterie, the Storyville Krewe. Gwen is also a painter, but her mediocre talent has failed to win any accolades from her clan. Her krewe’s leader, Roxanne Gerlette, considers Gwen a “wus” and makes her do menial tasks she’d normally entrust to ghouls, like carrying an umbrella for the krewe when it’s raining out.
Jocelyn Baker
Lineage: 11th gen. childe of Sally Ward
Embrace: 2012
Final Death: 2016 (4 years undead)
Status: Camarilla 0, Hardline Sanctified •, Toreador 0
Coterie: Storyville Krewe ••
A digital photographer attending UC Davis, Jocelyn was Embraced when she came to the city for Mardi Gras. Her sire was an archon and she’s never felt entirely satisfied with Sally’s purported reasons for Embracing her, but she’s intensely devout and still visits churches to pray despite the physical discomfort it can bring her. Jocelyn has struggled to gain recognition as an artist because her chosen medium isn’t considered “real art” by New Orleans’ deeply conservative Toreador circles, and she remains deeply frustrated by that fact. She is a member of the Storyville Krewe.
Megan “Meg” Wilkins
Ghouled: 2012
Status: Ghouls 0
Frail-looking former roommate to Jocelyn Baker, who she now serves as a ghoul. Meg was once a depressed college student with body image problems who suffered from bulimia and eventually attempted suicide, believing she wasn’t good enough for anyone. Jocelyn saved her life and ghouled her at the recommendation of her sire (under the advice that “suicides need someone to live for.”). She now attempts to find self-worth by continuing to binge and purge in order to “look beautiful” for Jocelyn despite the the Toreador’s increasingly disgusted efforts to break her out of the habit.
