Kept forgetting to ask this yesterday, so today! Fanfic asks! 🌍🎁🥰🏆
@badass-at-cuddling oh wow thanks for the ask :D
🌍fave type of au to write?
Canon Divergence are my biggest faves to be honest XD, I love seeing and writing how things would turn out if one or more things changed. :D
🎁 have a quote from a WIP?
From my upcoming big time angsty Withering/Beckoning fic
"Wiping his mouth clean, Sebastian smoothed down his hair and glanced at Kamau. “I trust you were discreet?”
“Always.” His sheriff had replied flatly.
“Good. But do not bring me another Anarch again, it is drawing their attention, I want you to from now on only bring me a Sabbat or even…” He took in a breath, the idea of feasting on a Kindred of his own sect was too distasteful, but he quickly dismissed the thought. What a hypocritical fool he would be to think that after devouring thin bloods, his own newly embraced Childer, Anarchs and Sabbat that diablering a member of the Camarilla would be going too far! He was already damned from the very first act of diablerie he was forced to partake when this horrible disease took hold of him!
“I see and will that be enough to make it seem to the Anarchs that we’re having the same problem as they are?” Kamau asks, moving to roll up the bed sheet to contain the ashes of the newly twice deceased Kindred. “Because without Rodriguez around, that might be to fool them, but I fear it won’t fool Agnes, she’ll see right through it…”
“Well that’s why she’s going to be working with Beckett to get the sarcophagus open! Agnes will be much too busy to question it!” Sebastian snarled as he was about to angrily climbed off the bed, but to his irritation he was immediately shoved back down by Kamau. “What do you think what you’re doing?”
“It’s almost dawn and you cannot run yourself ragged in your condition, Sebastian.” Kamau stated in a tone so stern that it blew off all Sebastian’s childish frustrations."
🥰 fave fic you’ve written?
Oh man, I have a lot of faves I've written but I have to say my biggest fave is A Traitorous Affair, its the biggest one I've written so far and is a fave cause it has one of my favorite pairings in VTMB, LaCroix/Ming Xiao! :D I hope to finish and post more chapters soon! :3
🏆fic youre most proud of?
I have to say its still Hindsight is a Bitch honestly I feel I've done some of my best work there, I was heavily inspired by @brujahinaskirt 's essay on Nines and the fic wouldn't let me go until it was done! XD

Hey! If the inspiration strikes, can you tell us more about Birdie Hart and Nines? What was her life like pre-Embrace? Where/how do they meet? What does Nines think of her and her involvement with the LA 5? What's their relationship like post-VTMB? Thanks and have a great day! :D
Tumblr media
Birde was born in a small town in Oklahoma in 1899, she was raised in a orphanage that was run by nuns. Bernadette isn’t technically her name, she took the name from one of the nuns when she turned eighteen, left (more got kicked out of) the orphanage, & made her way to LA. Where she eventually got a job as a newspaper as a columnist, mainly giving ladies life advice. Of course she really wanted to be a real journalist.
She eventually met Nines a few years later during the 30's. Birdie's sire Algernon Hart was the Keeper of Elysium at the time, & was throwing really wild parties in his giant af mansion. Some real Great Gatsby type of events. (The parties used to be even crazier during the 20's but then the great depression happened)
Tumblr media
Nines was a young Fledgling, only Embraced a couple of months before. He was forced to come by his Sire, & of course Nines coming from a very poor lower class background during The Depression. He felt very uncomfortable (& frankly pretty pissed off) about the whole situation. So in an attempt to quell his rage, he decided to hide out in one of the mansion's many rooms. The room he just so happened to choose was Birdie's.
As for her involvement with the L.A 5, I wouldn't necessarily call it involvement. She doesn't even really know most of the coterie, she somewhat knows Ruby due to her being a loyal Anarch. But she doesn't technically meet the rest of the coterie until what would be the Downtown Arc. So Nines doesn't really have any thoughts on it.
In terms of Birdie's involvement with the VtM:B story, she's a side character. She's one of my fav OC's, but she doesn't have alot of involvement with The L.A 5. Birdie is a character very similar to Beckett in a lot of ways. She has a lot of lucrative relationships within the World of Darkness. Her Sire Algernon, her relationship with Nines, being in a coterie with two other Barons, she was present in India during The Week of Nightmares, she has access to Carmelita Neillson's library, she's even briefly traveled with Beckett. But in terms of VtM:B, she doesn't play a very big role.
At some point I'll find a way to give Birdie her own story. I'm sorry this took me so long to answer this, a combination of working on other projects & struggling with depression took away alot of my time.

VTMB OC Meme
I decided to repost this VTMB OC meme by denerims as its own separate post instead of a reblog. Because it’s so long, most of it will be under a cut.
These are my Bloodlines fledglings only; I have loads more VTM OCs but this would quickly become quite unmanageable if I added them all :P
Ahem. Without further ado…
🌹 What clan do they belong to and how do they feel about them?
Tumblr media
Emily Belmont - Clan Toreador. Embraced for her looks more than anything else, she feels a bit inadequate compared to the talented artists and visionaries of the Clan. She is generally well-liked among the other Toreador, although she tends to get taken advantage of due to her naivete.
Tumblr media
Kate Murray - Clan Tremere. Embraced outside the Pyramid, Kate is determined to earn her way in and gain access to the Clan’s arcane secrets and valuable resources. Distrusted by most for her unorthodox nature, Primogen Strauss is a mentor of sorts, even if they differ greatly in their attitude towards modern technology.
Tumblr media
Danniella Drake, aka Dany, Dee, D. - Clan Ventrue. In life an aspiring politician with lofty ambitions, not much has changed since her Embrace. Loyal but arrogant, generous to her allies and utterly ruthless to her enemies, Dee feels she was born to rule and is quite at home among the Ventrue. Of course, an ambitious upstart is as likely to make enemies as she is to gain friends…
Tumblr media
Wilhelmina “Mina” Ellicott - Clan Nosferatu. A former British socialite and beauty queen, Mina’s Embrace into the Nosferatu clan was a veritable fall from grace, forced upon her by a vengeful Sewer Rat whom she viciously mocked, taking him for a vagrant. She loathes them and they aren’t fond of her either, so she keeps to herself.
🎹 Do they have any special talents or skills?
Emily: Although she has a pleasant voice and was working as a singer in a seedy bar at the time of her Embrace, Emily also has a BA in English.
Kate: A computer science student and a recently Awakened mage before her Embrace, Kate combines tech savviness with a growing knowledge of Blood Magic.
Dany: Decisive, persuasive, intimidating when she wants to be, Dee is good at making tough choices for “the greater good”.
Mina: A spoiled girl who spent her former life travelling and partying, Mina never bothered developing many useful skills; hard work is for the poor after all. She is good at reading people, however.
🌃 Where are they from and where do they live now?
Emily: Actually from LA, and is still living there.
Kate: Oregon, currently living at the Los Angeles Chantry.
Dany: Washington DC, at the moment looking to establish her own domain.
Mina: From England, was on a trip to the US when she ran afoul of her sire. She is drifting from place to place.
💢 What is their moral alignment?
Emily: Neutral Good
Kate: Chaotic Neutral
Dany: Starts out as Lawful Neutral, then slides towards Lawful Evil
Mina: Neutral Evil
👯‍♀️ Do they have any notable allies/friends?
Emily: Emily has several close acquaintances and is quite close to VV, a Toreador as soulful as she is who understands her desire to hold on to her humanity.
Kate: Regent Maximilian Strauss and Beckett as fellow scholars, Mitnick whom she can geek out with
Dany: Prince LaCroix (for now…)
Mina: Imalia, whom she sees as a kindred spirit of sorts.
💘 Do they have a romantic interest?
Emily: Heather Poe, her ghoul. (I made a drawing of them a while back. Incidentally that’s what Emily would look like if the game engine allowed it)
Kate: N/A
Dany: N/A
Mina: N/A
🏴 What are their allegiances? (Camarilla/Anarch/Independent/etc)
Emily: Anarchs
Kate: Camarilla/Strauss
Dany: Camarilla/LaCroix
Mina: Independent
🧛‍♀️ Do they have any preference regarding who they feed on/how they feed?
Emily: She prefers feeding from willing vessels, and Heather when possible (but not too often as not to harm her)
Kate: She likes taking as few risks as possible when feeding, but otherwise has no real preferences. Will prefer getting a bloodpack instead of going out to hunt if it means getting more research time in.
Dany: She doesn’t tell her specific blood preference to anyone, and is one of her carefully guarded secrets. Needless to say, she tries to ensure she has a steady supply of it.
Mina: She refuses to feed on rats and bums unless absolutely desperate, just like she avoids the sewers and prefers skulking around in a large hooded overcoat. She likes feeding from pretty people and making it unpleasant for them, out of spite.
⌛ When and how were they turned?
Emily: She was targeted by a romantic Old World vampire who said he reminded him of a Pre-Raphaelite painting. He visited her a few nights at the bar where she worked as a singer and lured her to a dingy motel room where they had sex and he turned her without her knowledge. (her story more or less follows the vanilla game intro)
Kate: Little did she know that she nearly became a Nosferatu when, following a clue left by her late grandfather, a mage, Kate hacked her way into a low security server hosted on SchreckNet and used by a group of young Tremere for the purposes of exchanging information. There she met her future sire who soon realised her arcane potential and decided to Embrace her. The Nosferatu were considering doing the same, impressed with her technical skills and wary of the risk she now posed to the Masquerade.
Dany: She was Embraced by an arrogant young Ventrue who watched her debates and how she handled her opponents, believing she would make a good addition to his power base. Foolishly, he believed he could conceal this from the Prince; he was wrong.
Mina: She was leaving an expensive club with her friends when she bumped into a shabby man whom she took for a vagrant. Disgusted, she complained loudly that his stink was now all over her expensive dress and that they really shouldn’t allow such filth to roam the streets in the nice part of town. Unfortunately for her, the “bum” was actually a Nosferatu who did not take kindly to the insults and decided to teach the rich bitch a lesson.  
🤝 What is their relationship with their sire like?
Emily: She only knew him briefly, but she was drawn to him and was shocked when she witnessed his execution. She retains a feeling of guilt over his death; if it hadn’t been for her, he would still be alive…
Kate: She feels what happened to her sire was unfair, although she is aware that he knowingly violated Kindred law, so it was his fault too. She hardly knew him, so she cannot say she had a strong attachment to him, though she wishes he were still alive, and that she’d been properly inducted into the Pyramid without having to fight for the privilege.
Dany: She thinks he was a fool, although she is grateful for the opportunity his actions, misguided as they were, have afforded her. Immortality is an improvement on her previous condition, and she is determined to overcome her…less than auspicious beginning.
Mina: She absolutely loathes him and watched with glee as his head was separated from his body. At least she got that bit of revenge over the bastard.
🖤 How do they feel about being turned? (How did they adjust? Do they feel differently now than they did when they were first turned?)
Emily: She was crushed to find out she had been turned into a bloodsucking monster, but she has tried to adjust (with much difficulty). Heather’s presence has helped her experience a counterfeit sort of humanity, the two of them entering a co-dependent relationship which Emily clings to for comfort. Although she knows Heather’s feelings are influenced by the Blood Bond, her own love for her clouds her judgement.
Kate: She hated the idea of losing her life at first, the future she had all planned out, but soon consoled herself with the prospect of an eternity spent unravelling the secrets of the Tremere Clan and beyond. For a consummate scholar like her, the possibilities seem endless.
Dany: She took it in her stride, and in fact being Embraced into the Clan of Kings only served to cement her belief that she was meant to accomplish great things; greater now than she ever dreamed possible. This was fate.
Mina: Losing her looks, which she valued above all else and underpinned her identity was agonizing for Mina. At first, she refused to come out of her warren until driven by hunger. It is still immensely difficult for her to accept that she is hideous, reviled. Never a particularly nice person, the Embrace has brought out a cruel, vengeful streak in her and she delights in petty schemes and revenge.
💉 Have they sired anyone? If so - why, how and did they claim their childe?
None of them have any childer, although Emily dreams of Embracing Heather one day.
👷🏻‍♂️ What are their opinions on mortals?
Emily: She is determined to avoid slipping into a “predatory” mindset like many of her peers and see them as cattle, which isn’t easy to do given her appetites.
Kate: Always a bit of an intellectual snob, that sense of superiority has increased since her Embrace. She won’t go out of her way to be cruel, but she can’t help seeing their fragility and their limitations, compared with the power and intellectual prowess of an Elder Kindred (which she aspires to becoming one day)
Dany: Most of them are of little consequence, although a few have their uses and a small minority are deserving of respect.
Mina: She hates them for their ability to walk freely in public, without inspiring fear and disgust. She especially hates good looking humans who remind her most of what she has lost.
👑 What is their opinion on the Camarilla?
Emily: Opposing it felt a bit like opposing her government, so for a while she was willing to accept the status quo, and not make waves. She wasn’t blind to their abuses, however, and wanted no part of that.
Kate: She approves of some members of the Camarilla but not others. Overall, she thinks it makes sense as an organization, Kindred needing laws and an organised society to keep them safe, but some of the blatant power plays and injustices she observed left a sour taste in her mouth. She doesn’t care much for politics either way, her focus is her research.
Dany: A staunch supporter of the Camarilla and the Masquerade, she firmly believes that law and order are a Kindred’s best friend, and that the Ventrue are best suited to enforce said laws.
Mina: She doesn’t care either way; supposedly the Camarilla value Nosferatu as informants and spies, but she’s isn’t good at either of those things so she’s not counting on any protection from them.
💥 The Anarchs?
Emily:  The Anarchs provided more equality as well as freedom than the Camarilla did, who just treated her as a lowly pawn. She doesn’t really care about the politics or sparking a revolution, she just wants to live her life in peace.
Kate: Too, well, anarchistic and idealistic. If history taught her anything, is that people will always seek power, power breeds more power and Kindred are no different. The pseudo-egalitarianism they espoused had been tried before in various forms, unsuccessfully.
Dany: Rabble, who endanger all their kind with their petty rebellions and lax adherence to the Masquerade, when they _should _be aiding the Camarilla against the Sabbat.
Mina: She doesn’t give a damn about their “grievances” or their conflict with the Camarilla. She has her own troubles, and it’s not like they give a crap, do they?
🧥 The Sabbat?
Emily: Absolutely terrifying, a mirror of her worst nightmare, of what she could become if the Beast took over.
Kate: Unstable fanatics ruled by paranoid, superstitious Elders who see signs of Gehenna everywhere, although most just seem to enjoy mayhem for the sake of it. If left unchecked, they could bring about the end of their kind, not because of some Ancient awakening to devour them all but because humans would come after them with explosives and flamethrowers.
Dany: The Enemy, which must be destroyed. No mercy shall be granted them.
Mina: Sometimes she is vaguely tempted to defect; then she could cause some real damage to assholes like her late sire and kill uppity kine without restraint.
💞 Do they have any opinions on [particular clan]?
Emily: All clans have their good and bad sides, as far as she’s concerned, but she will admit she feels uncomfortable around the Nosferatu; not because of how they look, but because most of them treat her with thinly veiled hostility (and sometimes they omit the veil altogether).
Kate: She appreciates intriguing, clever, well-educated individuals regardless of clan; for example, she respects Beckett as a scholar and enjoys geeking out with Mitnick.
Dany: She believes in the superiority of the Ventrue but in general is willing to listen to others regardless of clan, if they have proven their worth and loyalty. Disloyalty, on the other hand, (towards her or the Camarilla) is something she does not tolerate.
Mina: Needless to say, she is not fond of the “pretty bloodsuckers” of the Toreador clan, although that dislike extends to attractive members of other clans as well. On the other hand, she doesn’t particularly care for the company of her fellow Nosferatu either; too confronting.
��� Do they practice or believe in a religion? (Kindred or mortal)
None of them were religious in life, and they carried that lack of belief in the unlife.
🌎 Do they try to retain any part of their humanity?
Emily: Very much so, to the point of self-deception. Heather is her main tether to humanity, her ghoul and lover, bound to her but having a powerful hold on her in return. She mourns her lost humanity which makes her seem weak in the eyes of other Kindred, but when roused she will fight tooth and nail.
Kate: To some degree, yes. She has no intention of giving in to the Beast any more than she has to, but also understands that the pursuit of knowledge and arcane power sometimes involves some…unsavoury practices.
Dany: The Beast must be kept in check, of course; that is vital for any sensible Kindred’s longterm survival. That being said, difficult decisions must be made, traitors punished and sometimes that involves collateral damage. All for the good of the Camarilla, and the Masquerade.
Mina: Humanity? You mean what was stolen from her by that filthy bastard they called her sire? Well, if they made her into a hideous monster, she might as well behave like one…but the truth is, Mina fears the Beast. Accustomed to pulling everyone’s strings, she now feels powerless; the idea of losing what little control she has is not exactly attractive. So she does exercise some restraint.
🚫 Have they ever broken one of the Traditions? (This is includes the Masquerade)
No, not so far anyway. :P

For all your OC pairings, what's an absent, small gesture the OC does that makes the VTMB character's heart just fill with fondness and love? Alternatively, what was the moment that the VTMB character(s) realized they loved your OC? I'm daydreaming again, haha. Thanks and have a great day! :D
@badass-at-cuddling ohhhh my gosh!!! yes, thank you for this ask, I love talking about my OC/VTMB characters pairings! :D
Barbara/Nines
Nines’ heart almost seems to come alive again whenever Barbara gazes lovingly in his eyes as she strokes his cheek. It never fails to fill him with fondness and love for her. Sadly looking back he now views those little moments with horror...
NInes realised that he fell in love with Barbara when she came back to the Last Round after killing Bishop Vick all bloodied and injured, and he was so worried that she was going to fall in torpor, that he personally took care of her. Nines was so inspired and taken by her supposed willingness to fight for the vulnerable people who were dying because of the plague bears, that he had no chance but to fall in love.
Taika/LaCroix
Taika having LaCroix rest his head against her while she pours him a glass of blood, reminds him of how much he loves her. Truly she always manages to make him feel safe.
When she said his last name correctly And Taika making him feel safe is what made LaCroix realised that he loved her and wanted her always by his side and that moment came when she killed some Anarch rebel wannabe that thought he could take on the Prince of LA all by himself. While LaCroix wasn’t in any real danger, the fact that Taika destroyed this idiot with her blood magic without a second thought had touched him in so many ways, all his wall crumbled all at once as the Anarch blew up in bloody chunks! XD
  Tuba/Ming Xiao
Ming Xiao feels an incredible amount of warm fondness and love towards Tuba whenever she brings her delicious sweet treats or a book that she had her eye, especially if it’s a super rare book where there are only less than a hundred copies that have survived. Of course, Tuba got Ming Xiao a copy of the Book of Nod!
Ming Xiao first admitted that she loved Tuba was that she really truly and full-heartedly believed in her and her vision for Los Angeles and would fight all their enemies to her final death and that she would do the exact same for Tuba. That for the first time in centuries she would willingly face Yomi and back for another again! Godamn it, I’m crying now!  
Ayo/Damsel
Damsel won’t admit it but she feels all gooey whenever Ayo comes up from behind to hug her and hum gently the latest pop tune in her ear, it takes her to a place where it’s just the two of them.
Damsel first realised that she loved Ayo was the moment that she told Damsel that she didn’t have to shape her whole life around NInes and his cause. It stuck in her more than it had when Nines had told her pretty much the same thing, maybe cause she had brushed it off as him being all noble. (He’s a good boy in this verse, like in all my OC verses except maybe in Taika’s but that’s cause I love the irony of Damsel leaving one cult to unintentionally join another one!) And yet Ayo saying the same thing made her realise that it was because she cared about her and her wellbeing and saw there was more to her than all the passionate anger she often showed to everyone. Oh no, I’m crying again!
Gloria/Nines
Nines always feels so loved whenever Gloria bathes him, her fingers massaging his scalp makes him feel so special and takes him away from all the pressure of being the leader of the Downtown Anarchs. He won’t admit it but he loves it when she takes care of him like this, the feeling his fondness and love towards are heightened even more so after they have a BDSM session together. ;)
Nines realised that he loved Gloria when she told him that he is beautiful and people think he is so brave for submitting to her during their third BDSM sex session together that included an imagined crowd where he was imagining that the crowd were disgusted that he was submitting to a Ventrue’s dominance. (yay for having to deal with self-hatred, guilt for enjoying being submissive to a Ventrue cause BRUJAH are not allowed to ever want to be SUBS especially not for VENTRUES bullshit and his abandon issues all the time for Nines sucks!) The fact she showed so much care about his self-worth and his mental well being, made him realise that this was the woman he wanted to spend the rest of his unlife with. :3
Gloria/Velvet Velour
Velvet loves it when Gloria pulls her into her arms and kisses her on her neck or on the top of her shoulder. It’s just such a simple gesture but it never fails to send VV’s heart aflutter.
Velvet realised she was in love with Gloria when the Ventrue was so positive and encouraging about her poems, she never really had that before from anyone aside from Isaac and she had feared that he only liked them cause she was his adoptive childe but to hear from someone who appreciated her for more than the vixen persona she had presented herself to Kindred society had meant so much.   
Gloria/LaCroix
This is basically the AU verse where LaCroix decides that being Gloria’s 24/7 sub is a better life choice for him than opening the sarcophagus! (okay it’s not quite that simple but you know, I gotta work on that AU first) XD
Whenever Gloria tells LaCroix that he is a good boy or he makes the Ventrue clan proud wherever they are doing their BDSM sessions or just life in general always fills LaCroix with so much fondness and love for her. (Gloria and Jan are the only Ventrue in the world who understand that all Ventrue have a praise kink, yo)
LaCroix realised that he was in love with Gloria was the realisation that she had been willing to risk so much for him to have him by her side. It touched him in so many ways that he felt unworthy of her and wants to improve himself so he could be half as worthy of her as she thinks he is. 
Phew, that was a long one! XD Thanks again to @badass-at-cuddling for the ask, I got some feels at points, I just love these fools so much! :3

Hello and happy Friday! What are all the LA 5's clans? If Faith is the fledging we see in Bloodlines, how were the rest of them Embraced? Thanks!
Happy Friday to you too ❤
Tumblr media
I just want preface all this by saying that any of this information could change between now & when I eventually post the story. But for the most part these are all basically my canon although details might change. Now that my inspiration has come back recently I’ve been roughly outlining where the story is going & all my characters’ arcs. And its becoming a huge undertaking with all the many moving pieces. It also made me realize how many corners the writers for vtmb cut because they had a budget they had to keep. Like the game didn’t have The Scourge?!
Tumblr media
^^ me realizing I'm going to have to create 15 new characters just fill up Lacroix's court
Anyways mini rant over, you don't want to hear that. Onwards to OC lore!
Siobhan Victoria
Tumblr media
She is from clan Ventrue; she’s the oldest among their little coterie. She was a software developer who was working in Silicone Valley before she was Embraced. She was in London on a business trip for the Software company she was working for at the time, when she caught the attention of a very old Kindred named Maxime Janssens. They met at the hotel bar & struck up a conversation, something about her impressed him. She’s probably the only one who doesn’t entirely resent her Sire for Embracing her or hates being a vampire. She didn’t really have many friends (she was a workaholic) & hadn’t been in contact with her family since she left for college. Her only major issue with being dead was that she had to loose her job. In her mind she finally had all the time in the world to focus on her ambitions.Her Sire let her go to LA, seeing as it had been recently taken back by the Camarilla. She also has an interesting relationship with Prince Lacroix.
Willas Fontaine
Tumblr media
Willas is a Toreador; he’s a part of this indie alternative rock band called Aero Diversion. He has a very complicated relationship with his Sire, he’s honestly the only one in the coterie who can actually directly communicate with them. His Sire Gigi is Lacroix’s court Harpy. Gigi Maxwell has a fuck ton of childer & ghouls, she’s widely known for Embracing people for little to no reason. She had been watching Willas for a while from a distance, enthralled by his musical talent & beauty. After wrapping up one of their gigs Gigi approached Willas, inviting him & his band to come over to her house for a couple of drinks & some high end drugs. (all while heavily implying that she knew people in the music industry) After getting Willas supremely high, drunk, & separated from his band she Embraced him. But just like her many other childer, after a little while Gigi got bored with him & more or less moved on. My poor baby deserved a better Vampire Mommy 😔
Ruby Marino
Tumblr media
Ruby is of course our coterie’s resident baby Brujah. Her father was the head of a Los Angeles chapter of a prominent Motorcycle gang. And while her father was a criminal & definitely did horrible things, (though he did shield her & her sisters from most of it) Ruby learned that you didn’t need to be a cop or a politician to help/protect people, she learned alot about vigilante justice. So when she grew up, she wanted to help like her dad did. Of course she wasn’t technically allowed to join the gang, due to her being a girl, but she did alot work for them. Which caught the attention of a Kindred called Black Bella. She saw alot of potential in Ruby, & what she could do for the Anarch Movement. Bella just kinda jumped her in the restroom of a punk club. Ruby of course had alot of mixed feelings about her Sire. Later Bella was killed by Lacroix’s Sheriff when the Camarilla took back LA.
Niko Jónás (I changed her name from Morgan)
Tumblr media
Niko is a Tremere; she was originally from Budapest, Hungary & had come to America to study abroad at UCLA. Walking back to her dorm late at night she bumped into Imogen Nichols, who was moonlighting as a Professor at the University at the time. Now, technically Imogen was only planning on making Niko her ghoul, so she could train her before eventually Embracing her. But during Niko’s magic training, she attempted to summon something & it literally blew up in her face, killing her. Which forced Imogen to Embrace her, not wanting to see her potential to go to waste. After this, Strauss punished Imogen for Embracing Niko without permission.
