[color=brown][b][u][size=14pt]I. General Knowledge[/size][/u][/b]:[/color]

[b]1. [color=white]What is a Vampire? Define this creature and how it is different from mortals; touch on their mental drives and biological differences.[/color][/b]

In the lore, they are known as kindred or cainites and they are mainly what you would expect- minus all the whack tv- show myths such as garlic- crosses. However they do burn in sunlight, that is very much true [color=white]and they are not able to resist it.[/color] Vampires have been around ever since Cain, in the bible, he was the first vampire and he was cursed by God for killing his brother Abel. He was known as the first generation, anyone he chooses to embrace becomes second and then it keeps going like that. I might be straying from the question but thats important to vampires- how are they different from mortals? They do not bleed as much- they do not eat, they do not even breathe. They choose their body functions, they do not age. They are not all monsters, as it might seem. Humanity- most vampires have low humanities but some try to preserve it, try to be a good person- huh in world of darkness. There is so much more to vampires and probably the most fascinating race in WOD.

[b]2. [color=white]Define the terms [i]Sect, Clan & Bloodline[/i].[/color][/b]

The political hierarchy of the race, Sects- clans or bloodlines. Sects in a funny way is like political parties and clans are like ethnicity. A vampire that is first embraced is either born into a clan or bloodline, bloodlines being a rare sort of clan in a simple way of speaking. There are the main 13 clans, I don't think I need to list them, you can always just search it up on google.

The clans all have their perks- and weaknesses such as the Brujah- very physically strong argggg- but mentally they are likely to be not so adamant aswell as not having any form of blood magic to command.

Tremere- very gifted magically with blood but physically tend to be mediocre.

[color=white]The main sects are for the most part- Camarilla, Anarchs- Sabbat or they can be Independent and not get involved. Camarilla are an majority and have a strict hierarchy and can be very crude with their own kind- thats why the Anarchs hate them, they have strict traditions that must be followed.

Anarchs is definition of a rebel- they tend to be unruly and have no sense of respect like in the Camarilla- they rule in a way of strength- there is a Baron however in their hierarchy.

The sabbat are extremely wild- they disbelieve in the traditions and some of them have no problem breaking the masquerade- the Camarilla despise the Sabbat due to it.

Independence is independence.  [/color]

I'm applying for the City Gangrel clan- the primal- beast vampires, where they are animalistic and have their own forms

[b]3. [color=white]What are [i]the Veil[/i] and [i]The Traditions[/i]? Who enforces them and how would your character view it?[/color][/b]

Ah the Veil and the traditions, the part of the game that we barely use? Yeah, this is a sub at you vampire mods. The veil and the traditions are important to the playing of this game, why because if your character manages to fuck up and break the traditions, you'll be in big trouble. The traditions is a code that all vampires should conduct himself in and It's set and enforced by a vampire organization that is the "Camarilla", oh prince lacroix- that bastard. You fuck up with the traditions- the Camarilla will be sending hounds after you! WHAT ARE HOUNDS, the gangrels that are going to beat the shit out of you. (aka me)

[color=white]The Six Traditions:

The Masquerade: It keeps in control of keeping their existence a secret. If you were to show off your supernatural powers to humans, the camarilla will come after you with hounds- to punish you. The masquerade is a strict code for vampires to follow.

The Domain: The Camarilla takes their terriority very serious and they have guidelines of what a vampire can do in a select domain, a prince might declare that feeding on humans is not right- and forbidden for some odd reasons- basically a Prince has all the say in the domain.

Progeny: You must have permission to make a human a vampire in a camarilla dominated area or else this is seen as disrespect- and aswell as violating a Prince's terriority.

Accounting: Your childe is your responsibility, he does something, it's almost equivalent of you doing it. It's like being responsible for your son in a way.

Hosiptality: When in a new domain, you must introduce yourself to the Prince.

Destruction: You may not ash another vampire- this is incredibly intolerable in the Camarilla unless you are an elder of that domain, you have no right. A blood hunt will be conducted if this were to happen.

[b]4. [color=white]Explain the Vampire power system. What are Disciplines and what defines how powerful a Vampire is? How do Age and Blood Potency (Generation) come into play? [/color][/b]

The vampire power system is simple and complex at the same time, I honestly believe any vampire can kill any other vampire regardless of generation or clan- it's just how witty you play it. Raw power in this server is over-rated. From 12th to 8th generation, they may only increase their disciplines to 5, and only 7th generation and below have the ability to increase from there, now a 7th gen gets to go to 6/10 in disciplines and a 6th gen goes to 7/10. Powerful yes but raw power doesn't win fights.

Disciplines are powers of the vampires, usually using blood to activate it, every power has its own mechanisms found in the V20 Masquerade book.

I believe wits define how powerful a vampire is, how careful and coordinated they are, the simple answer to how powerful a vampire is- well, a 3rd generation is more likely to win a fight against a second but it doesn't mean the third can't diablerie the second-generation vampire, It has happened before in history.

Age and blood potency have no correlation, I know FASCINATING right. Let's say in our chronicle, Tychus Rodriguez was to embrace a human, the human would become a higher generation- hence he'd become 7th. Now that alone is enough to explain why age and blood potency have no correlation.

[b]5. [color=white]How are Vampires created and how can they increase their blood potency?[/color][/b]\

Cain. Cain is the first vampire ever in the existence of the world. He came to be because he was the first human being to kill another, God gave him a punishment of unlife- to make him suffer in this world- removing his ability to eat- and many other lifes delights. but gave him unworldly powers in turn. He was known as the first generation.

Generations- go like this, Cain embraces another human- they become second generation and his blood is less potent to Cains, then third generation comes from the second- and his blood potency is less and on and on.

[color=white]The Embrace is when a vampire sucks a human out of blood- rendering him dead but with a few drops of the Vampire's blood it sends the human- to remain active and hence becoming a vampire- sometimes there might be a frenzy when the vampire awakens due to the thirst.

Diablerie is a dangerous act in whatever sect- maybe less for the Sabbat but in turn- It is stealing of blood potency and that is seen as a disgusting act in the Camarilla. The diablerie is most likely in your blood that your blood is plagued with two types in a way. It's when a vampire sucks off another vampire- taking their blood and it can even sap some power and disciplines out of the vampire that is diablerized. The vampire loses humanity if they were to commit this act. They also have to check for frenzy after the event.[/color]

[color=brown][b][u][size=14pt]II. Lore Knowledge[/size][/u][/b]:[/color]
[color=red][size=8pt]This section is [b]optional[/b] for vampires under 70 years of age and/or a generation lower (better) than 9th.[/size][/color]

[b]1. [color=white]How did Vampires come into existence?[/color][/b]

The world was young still, this all relates back to the start of the human race, Abel and Cain were two brothers, sons of Adam. It's all in the bible, now Cain was jealous of Abel and sought out to kill him and he did- he was the first human being to ever kill another. the start of corruption had brewed and Cain might have been the first "evil" soul in the world.

God was furious- and had cursed Cain to walk this world forever but not with a mortal life- but an immortal one, taking away life's delights and also giving him the curse-. Being a vampire is definitely not a life decision most would pick, my character will see it more as a curse- immortality is a double-edged sword.

Cain started embracing more humans and from this- the whole race expanded.

[b]2. [color=white]When and how did the Camarilla and the Sabbat originate?[/color][/b]

The Camarilla was founded in 1435, It is the organization that most would say is the "right" one because they are more strict- and follow the traditions, and following the traditions is extremely important as it doesn't compromise their race at all.

The Camarilla had stayed in power ever since 1435, constantly recruiting new vampires with their roles and having feuds with the Anarchs- and had to put down two of their main rebellions.

The sabbat has vague origins- but they definitely do not like the camarilla at all, they were most likely anarchs or independents that disagreed with the way the Camarilla conducted themselves and due to this, they had seperated from them.

[b]3. [color=white]Explain the two great Anarch Revolts.[/color][/b]

Anarchs- every Brujah at heart believes in the Anarch movement- really, unruly and just want their own way. The anarchs has revolted twice and both times they had lost, now why? It could be because they were too unorganized or maybe that they were too weak!

The first anarch revolt occurred during the 15th to 16th century when the anarchs were not happy with the Ventrue- in power. The elders were in a way not doing their jobs- and didn't respect the higher generations enough and in turn left the anarchs very pissed and they started a war with the camarilla as the result of it. The brujah attacked them heavily- hitting them hard but not enough sadly! The anarchs did eventually lose.

The second Anarch revolt occurred in 1944. It left California anarch-free state zone! This occured for no particular reason but a lot of resentment from the anarchs and the distaste of the camarilla.

They believed they were too harsh.

[b]4. [color=white]What is the Jyhad?[/color][/b]

The Jyhad is a sort of power struggle between the Methuselah and Antedivullian (4th and 3rd generations) and they are afraid of the Gehenna coming where the day of reckoning in a way will come and who knows what will happen.

It's a broad concept but it refers to the end times really!

[b]5. [color=white]What are the long-term goals of your Sect?[/color][/b]

The Camarilla has had the same goal for a long time, keep shit safe and controlled. The prince will maintain the kindred from getting too rowdy firstly and they need to keep in control of the fledglings and set examples for them. They set roles in the society, hounds- sheriff and other roles.

Their main goal simply put is to maintain the traditions!

[hr]

[color=brown][b][u][size=14pt]III. Personalized Questions[/size][/u][/b]:[/color]
[color=red][size=8pt]These answers must be tailored around your character's individual goals and purviews on Vampire society, and reflect how accurately you're able to put yourself in your character's shoes. [/size][/color]

[b]1. [color=white]How do you perceive and associate to the local political structure?[/color][/b]

Ulric De Beville was an honorable knight in his youth- but recently has turned crude and not so likable- his charisma has faded over the years. He is a simple monster at this point but he respects the Camarilla to the point where he follows the guideline. Being the monster he is- he was assigned Hound in the free state of California in the past.

He will do the best to maintain the traditions but he relishes in combat- being a knight he love sword duels.

[color=white]He is a monster when it comes to combat, I meant also having a rat form and eagle form allows him to be a hound with extreme skill- he has a eagles view aswell as a tunneler's view.[/color]

[b]2. [color=white]Define a few of your character's goals in coming to Angel Pine.[/color][/b]

- Become the main hound of the Camarilla.
- Secure the sewers of the town.
- Hubris. (POWER)
- Embrace a human woman.

[b]3. [color=white]How do you relate to your Bloodline/Clan and Sect respectively? [/color][/b]

[color=white]I'll take this time to explain, how Ulric becomes a camarilla supporter as I am applying for City Gangrel, My sire had ties to the sabbat but- Ulric was only sired to be a general and thats all- he never got into the sabbat- he was more independent or a loyal general to his sire Victor. To answer your question of why he didn't he strike down his sire it's because of his Code of honor, It's in his code to never ambush a person- he holds his father's memory dear and he was taught to never- never face an enemy when they're not at their best. He's a honorable fool.
[/color]
Ulric will try to enforce the traditions on the vampires that break it, Ulric will be trying to achieve the rank of hound, if achieved Ulric will break vampire's noses for breaking traditions, celerity in- public- potence in public.

ANYTHING REMOTELY SKETCH, Ulric will break their nose.

[b]4. [color=white]What are your views on the Masquerade? How will your character blend into the local society?[/color][/b]

Preserve the Masquerade, It's important. Ulric is close to a walking masquerade violation, he has many gangrel- deformities such as beady eyes (rat-like), a rat tail he keeps tucked under his pants. He wears baggy clothing or wears his De Beville Armor.

[b]5. [color=white]How do you perceive irresponsible usage of powers? What are the potential consequences of such behavior? [/color][/b]

My usage of powers will be mainly to hide- spy- and punish. His protean forms will be used to watch stealth-like and what not. I will be able to shapeshift into a rat and a hawk.

If I am caught, I will take the full blunt of my mistake and take it up with the sheriff, he will not run having a good amount of respect for the camarilla.

[color=white]The breaking of masquerade would most likely be an execution- or other harsh punishment of the vampire such ass taking a fingers- off depending on the circumstances, It depends on the Prince really, It can go eitherway, there are creative punishments they may press on the vampire.[/color]

[b]6. [color=white]A mortal witnesses you breaking the Veil. How will you act in such circumstances? [/color][/b]

I'll grab him and shove him into my sewers- as I'll beat the living shit out of him till he knocked out. In a panic I will leave him tied up somewhere and find a ventrue- or lasombra able to wipe his mind.

If the human is suitable he may be ghoulified.

1599, Rise of a Knight.

Ulric De Beville was born at dawn to one of the noble houses in England. His father would want him to grow to be honorable- humble and fearless. Chivalry was a key virtue at the time and Ulric was raised and groomed to be the idle "knight in shining armor". He had beautiful blonde hair- a nice white complexion and a muscular build like his father before him. He would be a proper lad as they'd say. He had his own tutors. If Ulric wasn't studying he was sparring with his father, Ruther De Beville. His father was known as a renowned warrior in the area as well as being a great lord. Their family had quite a reputation.

[spoiler=House De Beville Sigil][img]https://i.imgur.com/11p4ZCw.png[/img][/spoiler]

He didn't have many friends in his youth- being quite the socially awkward child but his heart was in the right place and that's all that mattered. He had developed the code of honor of always attacking your enemy head-on! Do not strike a friend while he is down unless he is a sworn enemy he will let his enemy up.

A lot of sword sparring- and tutoring in his youth would make him a well-rounded individual and he'd be the heir to House De Beville.

1627, A young knight.

His father had gone out with his men at arms to resolve a conflict between the houses and their people.
Ruther De Beville went to meet with Victor Crowton, they were both leaders of their houses. They both were to speak of border disputes and where House Crowton had crossed into their lands. It had seemed however, House De Beville were betrayed as It was a complete ambush and Ruther (Ulric's Father) was killed in cold blood. Some men-at-arms of house De Beville had escaped with their lives rushing back on their horses.

Ulric had a feeling- and urged his father not to go but being so honorable- he knew his words would mean nothing to him. He looked at the bloodied men-at-arms rushing back to the castle as he shed a tear- clenching his fists as he'd turn back getting his greatsword as he'd have no choice but to kill those that took his beloved father from him. He went down to open the gates for the men at arms, staring at them as they'd report that it was a plot.

Ulric kept himself composed with a frown, his mother rushed to him grasping him as she cried tears- Ulric had something dark in him- building. It's whats known as Revenge- he wanted it and no one could reason him. Ulric held a council meeting for war plans.

They directed him to give up the lands they had requested but Ulric being the standing lord- said "I will not let my father's killer live, you hear me!"

The council nodded as they all had love for Ruther had consented into launching a war. They had five hundred soliders- seasoned and their forces were a thousand strong as reported from the scouts.

Ulric said we will fight with reason- they fight for nothing but greed and land, we fight to avenge our lord- and my father.

Ulric had gathered the five hundred men as his bannermen- raised their Red Hawk sigil as he marched with his men to attack House Crowton. They had marched- and marched and found a village in their territory. He had a choice to hurt them- and torch the village but he did no such thing- he simply walked up and demanded half of their food supply or he'd be forced to take action, being as honorable as his father.

They had taken their rations and continued but then had met with their army standing strong with 700 strong against their own 500. Ulric turned to his men as he rallied them- forming the pikes front- swords next then archers, they were a lot more organized than their enemy. Victor Crowton had a black horse with red eyes, Ulric had looked at him, raising his swords towards him in the distance. Victor smirked widely gazing at Ulric back- as Ulric commanded them to charge.

The forces went at each other- horses clashing

[spoiler=Ulric's Forces verus Crowton's Forces]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eH_nBKcUtfo[/spoiler]

The swords clashing- are heard loud and clear as Ulric rushed up slicing Crowton's necks- being very skilled. He kept slicing them down as he kept yelling "KILL THE CROWTONS KILL THEM ALL." the men were rallied and fought out of love for Ruther. They had all wanted to avenge their lord. Victor baffled- he took his black horse and ran off- leaving his soliders. It had been a long battle- It was clear that Ulric was winning however- his forces were taking out three for each one of theirs.

The battle would last six hours- Ulric had slashed down the remaining Crowtons without casualty to himself. However- his own forces were decimated. Ulric had around 50 men that were healthy and fifty others on the verge of death.

Ulric realized this is the only time they have to strike their manor- before they muster up any more forces. He disbanded the injured and took his fifty soldiers to their manor. He rode his horse following them to Crowton Manor- barely guarded as they had used almost all their soliders for their battle prior.

Ulric had lost men penetrating their wall as their archers shot at them as they rammed the wall with a wood ram- they had broke through into Victor's Manor- breaking through they had rushed up to the manor's hall to confront Victor Crowton. He had ten men remaining behind him, men at arms loyal to him. They had entered the hall and there was Victor Crowton standing there with a short sword looking at him.

Ulric laughed crazy-like as he looked at him with great anger, "You are finished, I will execute you." Victor Crowton sat at his throne- as he sent his last remaining guards to attack the group of ten, Ulric shoved his sword into one of the soliders heart and the other one was taken care of his own men at arms.

Victor Crowton looked at Ulric and his men at arms, "You do outnumber me, don't you, how about a duel?"

Ulric smirked walking forward with his great sword as he nodded "Men, watch me kill this fool."

Victor Crowton let out a screech- as he jumped with supernatural speed- using potence and celerity as he jumped towards Ulric- as Ulric stood there baffled, he gets tackled onto the floor. Ulric gets into a fist-fight on the floor with Victor as Victor- seems to be unaffected by most of his attacks- and pale.

Victor punches Ulric a few times- making his nose and teeth bloody. Victor laid there infront of his men at arms defeated- his men at arms all charge Victor where- Victor uses his dagger and celerity to stab them all down in a matter of seconds- Ulric crawled to his sword as he cut down his soliders, Ulric pushed himself up with the sword looking over at Victor for a last sword-off.

"Come at me SATAN CHILD!" as he charged at him swinging his great sword at him five times with skill, Victor dodged as he was too fast for him and just watched him laughing loudly at him.

"YOU KILLED MY FATHER, I WILL NOT LET YOU LIVE." Victor shoved his leg into Ulrics chest as he gets sent all the way back onto the wall as Victor rushes up grasping Ulric's neck as he stares at him "You are quite the warrior aren't you?"

Ulric having no strength to resist as he spits blood into Victors face, Victor slams Ulric's head onto the stone behind him.

Ulric falling to the ground, knocked out cold- what happens next is what you may foreshadowed the embrace. Victor Crowton would suck out all of his blood- as he'd place a few drips of his own blood into Ulric's mouth. He placed Ulric's body infront of the throne where Victor sat on his throne awaiting Ulric to rise.

Ulric rose up from his slumber gazing over at Victor- as he felt different- he wasn't breathing- he wasn't the same. He felt incredibly different, thirsty- even as he stood up- confused but still feeling anger towards Victor for the murder of his father.

Victor looked at him, "You will work under me now.", Ulric responding, "You're MAD, what did you do to me." I gave you my "Satan power" you described earlier. "You will work under me or your whole family will be wiped"

Ulric had no choice but to submit.

His relationship with his sire was one sided- his sire took a liking to his great sword skill and overall personality of being an honorable knight but Ulric hated him with a passion, he is the one that killed his father.

He was trained to lead Victor's armies- becoming a great leader- having enough power to lead thousands into capturing other lands- and attacking other lords.

His kindred life was quite simple- be a military leader so that his manor isn't burned alive- He had discovered many of his vampiric qualities as time progressed- being a newfound vampire. He had bent his knee to his sire- and even took on a role of his student so maybe one- day one day he may face his sire in battle. He may face him with his greatsword and armor and take him down.

[color=white]His sire had been a cruel man- very- direct, if it's not his way, its no way. No compromises- if Ulric was told to burn down the villages,  he'd have to do so, feeling as it was wrong but he vowed to himself that he would one day ash his sire. He'd lose himself- and his values for a time being, having to comply to what Victor commanded as he did not want to lose his dear mother or have her hurt aswell as his people.

Many years of countless battles- clashing of his sword- the slicing of other men's neck. It made him lose some of his humanity- really. He'd slowly learn from his sire, however- his sire would tutor him- on his abilities and how to awaken his protean-, to use his blood to shapeshift into a beast- an animal. He was also taught his celerity as if it were innate to him. Victor had to make Ulric a man killing machine after-all, Victor may of been cruel but as taught a lot to Ulric no doubt.

From the 17th to 18th century, Ulric De Beville would be a noble lord and would control the forces of Victor but- a sudden change happened. His sire had left- it seemed that his sire actually had trusted Ulric as if Ulric had forgotten his hatred towards him. He was leaving to Africa for a reason unknown to Ulric.

Ulric's mother would have perished at this time and his close family were most likely dead from old age or other means, it seems that what he had was nothing- he had no purpose in England. He disbanded ALL THE SOLIDERS that Victor had commanded and he himself- crossed over on a boat to the Americas- in the colonial age. It was 1700ish years and it was a clean slate- a new life waiting for him.

Ulric had no idea on what he had to do- It seemed his motivations were lost- he wasn't commanding an army- he wasn't protecting anyone. All he had was himself. A man without motivation is quite dangerous.
He had entered an camarilla terriority at first- a late night stroll he would be taking until a man in the shadow had been following him- a nosferatu and he was curious on what Ulric's intentions were.

Ulric had approached this nosferatu and the Nosferatu had asked if he had introduced himself yet- to the prince. At first Ulric not knowing any of the traditions as he had never been educated- and he said "Prince? Why would I need to introduce myself to a prince?", The nosferatu stated the tradition of "Hosiptality, you enter a vampire's domain, you introduce yourself, idiot." Ulric stated "Take me to him then!"

Ulric had approached the prince, informally introducing himself as he had spoke his name and his clan, that is the only thing he really knew of vampire society- always being to himself. The prince had asked him why he was there- and Ulric himself stated "I-.. don't know." The prince baffled, and stated that their domain is always need strength- and roles even. He lent out his hand to him, Ulric was not sure how to respond and stated "I ask permission to stay in your domain." and the prince nodded and took a liking to him as he saw his muscular physique aswell as armor- and great sword. He knew that he would be a great help to him.

Ulric would serve out his days serving the Camarilla for a great amount of time, making his rise to the rank of Hound- after a few years of doing this, his Sire had seeked him out- furious, that he had lost all his lands from Ulric abandoning England. His sire had used a tremere to locate Ulric. Victor had made his move on him, taking a few sabbat followers of his to attack Ulric. Ulric was sent to investigate a vampire breaking the masquerade but it was Victor's sabbat follower in disguise- intentionally letting himself get caught to draw him out.

Ulric would feel a knife sink into his torso- at quite rapid speed- he looked up at his sire Victor as he said "YOU FUCKER, I WILL ASH YOU."

Ulric pushed him off as he swung his great at Victor's torso- Victor would jump back before he ordered the other sabbat to constrict him. Ulric quickly shifted into his eagle form- flying off at double speed- Victor's form was a bear and could not continue chase.

This is where Ulric had decided to flee to Angel Pine, his sire will always follow him trying to exact his vengence.
