City of Fallen Angels • POV Character Intros
[image description: four bubbles on a navy blue background; first bubble is a pair of clasped hands; second bubble is a man’s face, showing dark hair and a blue eye in shadow; third bubble is the name Matthew Monroe above the symbol of Clan Ventrue, a crossed sword and scepter; the fourth bubble is a broken and tarnished silver crown (end description)]
MATTHEW MONROE // 158 • 9th Gen VENTRUE
↳ THE CAPTAIN
embraced › December 31, 1873 | San Francisco
sire › Alastair Fowler (d.1944)
appearance › solemn long face, heavy and sharp blue eyes, dark hair; ordinary to athletic build; designer jeans, fitted suit jacket, dress shirt
traits › relentless, honourable, crafty, stoic, power-hungry
Among the Anarchs, Monroe is an alien breed. Clever with an iron code of honour, only his clan’s baggage prevent him from ruling the city. Even so, he attracts fellow outsiders as allies and his ability to play political games. He wears power well, though tends towards ruthless with his enemies, leaving his young adopted childer and his once-ghoul Hawthorne to act as his dwindling conscience.
TROPES
friends-to-enemies, enemies-to-friends-to-lovers, manipulative bastard, anti-hero, don’t make him angry
FACTS
adores music, owning a nightclub/record label and produces music, as his one and only concession to “fun”
can play chess well, like all Ventrue, but hates the game
spent his human years in the military
[image description: four bubbles on a crimson background; first bubble is a Black woman touching a classical sculpture; second bubble is a Black woman with dark skin, curly black hair, and a brilliant smile; third bubble is the name Zari Adeyemi above the symbol of Clan Toreador, a thorned rose; the fourth bubble is a hand of poker cards, the King of Spades highlighted (end description)]
ZARI ADEYEMI // 58 • 12th Gen TOREADOR
↳ THE BLACK ROSE
embraced › March 13, 1973 | Santa Monica, Los Angeles
sire › Toby Amble (d.1973) | foster sire › Ashley Swan
appearance › round wide face, bouncing shiny black curls; very tall and slender; chunky off-the-shoulder sweaters, pre-ripped jeans, high priced sneakers
traits › avoidance, emotionally closed, decadent, witty, intelligent, resourceful
Zari learned under Ashley Swan to become indispensable to protect herself. At this, none would argue her success. Despite her youth, she has become a first-rate vampire and invaluable with her zine. Her work has always been a solace during strife, a distraction and oasis. Unable to face emotional turmoil, she runs — but she finds she is always there, waiting for her.
TROPES
secret admirer, deep cover agent, second love, lovable alpha bitch
FACTS
has two children, Aisha and Noel, who were 6 and 3 when she was turned
runs an indie zine called The Fifth Estate, one of the most popular newspapers
has a secret passion for gardening
[image description: four bubbles on a dusky purple background; first bubble is a woman’s mouth covered with blood; second bubble is the ocean shore at night; third bubble is the name Charlie Bradley above the symbol of Clan Malkavian, a broken mirror; the fourth bubble is layers of a denim jacket, flannel, and white t-shirt (end description)]
CHARLIE BRADLEY // 20 • 12th Gen MALKAVIAN
↳ THE MOONCHILDE
embraced › October 2, 2003 | Griffith Park, Los Angeles
sire › Rhys Wilson
appearance › frizzy-curly brown hair, haunted hazel eyes; skinny build; denim jacket covered with pins and buttons, flannel, holey t-shirts, jeans, sneakers
traits › enduring, honest, impulsive, empathetic
Monroe’s most recent charge, she struggles with her newfound life. She died a virgin. Gradually, she finds a way to feed, to make peace with herself and her sire, and she learns to live. The Cobweb, a vampiric psychosis, plagues her every night with hallucinations — both as prophecy and terrifying nonsense. As a new adult, Charlie struggles to define herself and find a place in a world that is suddenly a lot darker and more terrifying than she first thought.
TROPES
lesbian jock, first kiss, stages of monster grief, nerd herd, reluctant psychotic
FACTS
wanted to be a journalist, telling others’ stories
used to surf, swim, camp, and hike — and still does… at night
still waiting to turn into a bat
[image description: four bubbles on a green background; first bubble is a a man in a leather jacket hugged from behind by another man; second bubble is an Asian man with shaggy long hair; third bubble is the name Jack Shen above the symbol of Clan Gangrel, a howling wolf; the fourth bubble is a human hand scratching through floorboards like claws (end description)]
JACK SHEN // 73 • 11th Gen GANGREL
↳ THE LONE WOLF
embraced › July 13, 1955 | Downtown, Los Angeles
sire › Skelter
appearance › laughing dark eyes, shaggy black mullet; dirty blue jeans, a black leather jacket found in a thrift store decades ago
traits › determinedly cheerful, romantic, simple, insightful
Jack doesn’t know much, but he knows what he wants and what he won’t stand for. That’s always been enough. He’s left behind friends, gangs, mentors, and every time treasures what time they’ve been able to have. Life is all about friends: making them, keeping them, having their backs and letting them have yours. An interest in magic and keeping his longtime lover and human mage Ryuko from accidentally killing himself has proved a fulltime job.
TROPES
like an old married couple, low intelligence/max wisdom, always lawful good, beware the nice one
FACTS
turns into a bat and wolf, as well as a crow and black California cougar (ie. puma)
can speak three languages (Cantonese, English, Japanese) and read five (French, Latin)
uses Animalism to help volunteer at an animal shelter
Thanks to @wordsofpaintandsmoke for inspiring me with her post format.
