 As a mortal, Mark murdered the old Ventrue Primogen, and freed his wife from her blood bond. After some time coming to a new understanding of the world around them, they began to help the Anarchs, disgusted with the attitude of the Camarilla. Together, they opened Better Days, the welcome and care center for Kindred new to the city, as well as for at risk mortal families. They are highly respected within the Anarch community, and though they themselves do not have much martial power, the combined forces of most Anarch gangs would crush anyone who tried to do them harm.

 anthropology, lead a research team, and organized many of the charities the couple supported. Though she was not particularly a hippie, she
 rode the wave of feminism of the era to make a name for herself while also building a family. She was happy, and her relationship was one of mutual respect.  That was why it came as such a shock to be embraced, to be made into an emotional slave to a man who wanted little more from her than to use her to control more power in the city. As disgusted as she was, she had no choice. As much as she despised him, she obeyed and broke off her marriage in order to serve him. Three years of servitude left her bitter and cynical towards the Kindred, and the breaking of her bond by Mark was one of the happiest moments of her life. Unlike him, however, she never truly got her revenge, and has been left with a deep anger and mistrust of elders.  Perhaps because of that anger, she was the driving force behind Better Days. Though her husband focuses more on helping new Kindred get situated within the city, she works to help those with addictions, problems, and blood bonds. It is sometimes a dark business, but she firmly believes she is making the city a better place.

 Still travelling for a while, Chloe eventually found a ...temporary... place in Kansas City where she worked for a detective's agency, just doing some legwork, computerwork, shadowing, etc. to help her out money-wise. But eventually she moved on again, not quite feeling that at home there. Arriving in LA she took some time to get used to the new place, but eventually found herself more deeply interwoven in Anarch society, eventually even becoming Reeve/Sheriff. With all the weird and dangerous stuff happening in LA she quickly learned to make friends and even found love. But good things never last and they had to move on to a new place, New York. And though excited about living in a place like this, she already misses the abundant nature she got used to in LA and is a bit unsure of how to continue after certain events.

Shortly after she graduated, someone managed to trace her - a guy called Justin. They shared interests and worked together on a few projects, but soon after he needed to crash at her apartment - he'd messed with something he shouldn't and needed to lie low. Turns out the group he'd messed with was his Sabbat pack, and within a week they were on the run together as Emi got a crash course in Kindred politics and the horrors of vampirism. A few months later they caught up. Emi was mortally injured in the ensuing fight. Justin gave her the Embrace and left her body for the next night before facing their pursuers- He didn't win. Emi woke up the next night with nothing but ash for company, and spent several years in abandoned buildings on the outskirts of NYC, getting used to what she'd become. She did communicate with other kindred even if she didn't meet them, though - she managed to track down a few contacts online after some time and quietly learned from them. She has slowly built up a reputation as a useful problem solver and information specialist, primarily working for Anarch interests, although she still does have a focus on keeping everyone at arm's length, regardless of sect. If anything, she has more of affinity for local wildlife - especially insects - than she does for kine or kindred company.

+Dorathea was born to a successful businessman in 1982. Freakeshly tall and strong even as a child she was something of a social outcast and was a shame on the family as a result. Despite this Dora had a head for business and a talent for getting her way. Inevitably a Gangrel began to pay attention to Dora due to her size and strength and eventually Embraced her after she left home due to being passed over to inherit her fathers business. Initially Dora did not possess much self control and frenzied often, this resulted in pointed ears, a rough hide on her forearms and fangs that refused to retract, all permanent changes. Despite actually liking her new appearence Dora realised that if this continued she wouldn't be able to exist in society at all without breaking the masquerade, she was already pushing it, and though she enjoyed parts of the typical Gangrel lifestyle, she was not truly suited to it. Dedicating herself to developing an absolute self control, she eventually gained the iron will she desired and re-entered Kine society, opening a successful nightclub called The Beast's Den, themed around allowing ones inner animal to run free for a night. Dora herself is the Beast in question and acts as a living advertisement for her nightclub, her incredible height and  'surgical modifications' used to entice the curious in for a chance at seeing her in the flesh.

 === Rachel Pierce ===
@@ Line 437: / Line 467: @@
 Years later, Rachel had managed to move on, having started to build up something for herself and enjoying life again for what it was. No longer needing to constantly watch over her shoulder and make sure etiquette and traditions were adhered to, she could finally fully immerse herself in her passions. Which lead to eventually heading her own company, as her father would have always wanted, just... in a different trade. ‘Pierce Innovations’ and its multiple branches into different sciences and products serves as a means to feed and finance those passions of hers. The recently opened office and research centre in LA is still standing strong and disconnected from anything supernatural, despite everything that happened there. Moving back to New York where she had once started to build up her company might be a blessing in disguise, but she and her animated companions still need to make sure that the newly created Anarch Tremere Chantry stays safe and prospers.
 ===== Bayridge Gang =====
+==== Aodh "Hobs" Gawley ====

+**Sire:** Unknown
+**Clan/Bloodline:** Ravnos
+**Gen:** 9th
+**Allegiance:** Anarch
+**Age:** 193
+**Apparent Age:** 27
+**Hair color:** Black
+**Eye color:** Blue
+**Merits:** Innoffensive to Animals, Bruiser, Blush of Health, Language, Iron Will
+**Flaws:** Territorial, Emotional Isolation, Eerie Presence
+**Road:** Humanity
+**Background**:
+His Life: Just a faceless immigrant from Connacht at the beginning of the potato famine, Aodh hardly remembered his mother, who died on the trip over, and hardly wished to remember the rest of his family, or the cramped hovel they lived in as his father worked himself to death. Even at an early age, it was clear what his life held for him if he chose not to change his destiny. He never spoke with his family again after he left the house at 14, and though he does not talk of these dark times, in nearly 200 years he still hasn't moved out of Bay Ridge, the neighborhood in which he grew up.
+He joined the Daybreak Boys, an Irish gang, as a young  teenager, and quickly gained a reputation for an inscrutable demeanor and fierce brutality. He earned the name Hobs, which he still uses to the present day, because of the hobnail boots he always wore that he used to stomp rivals to death. By the time he was 20, he had built a small empire of illegal trafficking and when his gang was broken up a few years later, he took over the business and began to rule Bay Ridge with an iron fist. He was instinctively clever, and a lifetime on the streets had made him perceptive to human nature, which kept him safe from the police, but also led him down darker paths. It didn't take long for him to begin having run ins with the Sabbat, but he cared little for their supernatural nature, and set his gang on running them out of his territory just the same. When he learned what their blood could do for them, the real terror for the vampires living nearby began.
+All this caught the eye of a younger Ravnos, who mistook Hobs' criminal activity for freedom, and embraced him to help keep out the Camarilla and Sabbat invading the city. Despite his Sire's misguided plan, and his death at his childe's hands soon after, he proved prophetic.
+His Unlife: Hobs's eyes were opened to a new world, but he began to run a war no different from that of his Kine gang. In the first year, he committed diablerie twice, and sent several more vampires to their final death. He cared nothing for the Sabbat's beliefs or the Camarilla's strictures. He found allies in the beginnings of the Anarch movement, but since they did little for him, he did nothing for them. It was only when the Camarilla had his childer staked and gang arrested that he finally began to make connections with those outside his control.
+Using his mortal connections, and the supernatural powers he had amassed, he formed a new gang of vampires defected from both sects, ghoul hunters, and mortals to handle day to day affairs. Along with others of the Anarch movement, they struck back, hard, and drove the Sabbat and Camarilla not only out of Bay Ridge, but out of Brooklyn entirely. Though he has a treaty with those who control other parts of the borough, and willingly fights outside influences with them, no one who lives very long turns their back on him.

+**Hair color:** Brown
+**Eye color:** Brown

+**Flaws:** Thirst for Innocence, Recruitment Target, Old Flame, Cold Breeze
+**Background**: Michael was dangerous even before he was embraced. A stable life in a middle class family had done little to soften a
+sadistic nature. Good looking, lntelligent, and athletic, he naturally drew people to him, but never had real friends. Everyone who got close to him soon learned to fear him. His friends soon became those who would allow him to abuse them, or who were as callous as he was. He became a lawyer, got married, and started a family, all without feeling a single thing.It was his first encounter with a vampire that gave him the first thrill of his life. He witnessed a feeding, the death of a mortal, and felt the rush of his heart, the excitement of such violence. He picked up a shovel and in one blow torpored the unaware vampire. Just as it had drunk the mortal's blood, he drank its blood. That night, he became a hunter. It didn't take long for him to find an organization of like-minded people. Not much more than gangsters, but they knew far more than he. What he didn't realize was that the gang was actually run by Hobs, a vampire himself. On one of their expititions, they were ambushed, and most of his crew was killed. Only he in the end was embraced in an act of revenge, by a nameless, faceless vampire who left him to die. Hobs found him and took him in, only after making very clear to the sociopath who was really in charge. Michael now works for Hobs as both lawyer and enforcer.
