Known History

Tanner was "born to the sound of the Bow Bells," in Victoria's London and is, as such, a true Cockney. He's also mentioned some time shooting Nazis in WWII as a member of the SAS. After that, he confesses to having been a Commissar under Stalin. From there he somehow made it to London to be around for the start of the punk scene and to be an inaugural hooligan for the Damned United. It was then that he has some association with "Razor" Eddie Ogle.

In early 2010 he moved to San Francisco where he caused some ruckus... Prince Stewart of Berkeley ordered him to take etiquette lessons from a Setite, Prince Deems exiled him for beating up an Anarch in Court. However, he's moderated a touch with time and now holds the position of Scourge.

Quotes

"It's not that I'm racist, or what have you, it's that I hate everybody."

"So, what's it like to be Caitiff, then?"
(spoken to Prince Virgil Deems (before they were introduced), who had just walked into the room and stated 'I am now free of my Clan').

"Everytime he shows up to Court, it's like punching the Camarilla in the face"
(Prince ***, in reference to Tanner's public behavior)

"You still... doing that stupid magic vagina sex cult shite you got into? I sent you to school to get proper married not drop out and... do THIS. Bugger. At least you're not voting or wearing trousers."
(upon seeing his daughter again for the first time since she ran away from boarding school)
