Character Information

File:Fairytale Rachel.png

Rachel Dubhan speaks with an upper class English accent with an enchanting voice. She is generally clothed stylishly in dressy outfits that are not overly trendy. Her hair is often pulled back or pinned up with jeweled accessories. She appears to be high on the Path of Humanity, and often (but not always) has warm skin and a heartbeat.

While most people would describe her as beautiful, she does not have the stunning, near supernatural beauty possessed by many of her Clanmates. She thinks of herself as a plain woman who knows how to make the best of her good features with makeup and the right clothing.

She has hosted a number of successful parties with themes ranging from Courtly Love to Steampunk. Although she clearly has an appreciation for the finer things in life, she does not appear to display the degenerate hedonism typical of many Toreador.

Rachel Dubhan is a talented actor, sculptor, ballroom dancer, and writer. She rarely performs or displays her artwork before Kindred audiences, and she admits to using many pseudonyms for her work.

She is locally known for her knowledge of Lore. She admits that her understanding comes from a mixture of study and firsthand experience.

Known History

Rachel Dubhan came to the Domain of Middle Georgia from the UK in late 2007. She quickly distinguished herself by playing a crucial role preventing the Domain from being destroyed by Lupines. She served as Seneschal when her close ally, Ivan Sjekna of Clan Gangrel, took Praxis of Middle Georgia. They had a falling out, and she stepped down from the position. Prince Sjekna lost his Praxis a short time later. She has remained an active part of Middle Georgia, primarily known for her skills in gathering information.

She served as Harpy of Atlanta in 2009 and 2010. Her most notable actions in that position were hosting the 2010 Atlanta Gala and declaring that the Brujah Justicar's attempt to strip Status without invoking his own was invalid. She voluntarily relinquished her own Status to demonstrate that her actions were not derived from selfish motivations.

At the end of April 2011, she left the Domain of Middle Georgia suddenly. She told few why she was leaving, simply saying that personal duty required her to travel elsewhere.

Coterie

She is not a part of any known coterie, unless you count Clan Toreador.

Allies

(Feel free to add your PC if you think it would be publicly known)
Alabastor Haroukin
Rachel is often seen in the company of Lilyanna Salvatore and the other Toreador of northern Georgia. She is also known to be allies with Victor Gaunt of the Children of Haqim.

She also has a particularly close relationship with the Toreador elder Justine Westshire.

Enemies

(Feel free to add your PC here too, if you think it would be publicly known. I would certainly be interested to find out.)

Alexi, a Toreador Anti with a magical sword, is very eager to get his hands on her.

Sire

Not public knowledge, but many assume it to be Justine Westshire because Rachel was under her Accounting. However, Rachel never refers to Westshire as her sire, which seems to indicate that Rachel may be in her line, but not her direct childe.

Childer

Emeraud Dubhan (adopted Brujah)

Broodmates

Unknown

Character Inspirations

Originally it was "Toreador with an English accent that has an art form I can at least fake." The character has grown quite a bit since then.

Quotes

After listening carefully to Lupine howls:
Rachel: "It's alright. They are leaving now."
Abigail McCormack: "How do you know?"
Rachel: "Oh, I speak a little Lupine."

"You are a Disney Princess!" - Sabrina Pandora

Rachel: "That man cannot be trusted."
Douma Charoum: "Why do you say that?"
Rachel: "He said I was nicely dressed three times, but I'm wearing jeans right now. It's obvious he's up to something."

"The plan I have just outlined is the course of action I feel is most likely to unravel the mystery by giving us the vital clues we are missing. However, it has the disadvantage of also having a notable risk of death. I say we go with it. If you are worried, I don't mind going alone while you stay at a safe distance."

"You want to know how I have so much information? Fine. I'll let you in on the secret. Here it is: Auspex and determination."

"Oh, really? I'm always surprised when anyone says they have heard of me, since I tend to be rather forgettable. All good things, I'm sure?"
