Known History

A rising star in Germany's culinary world, Petra's passion caught the attention of her sire upon first meeting. That or the assault on her sous-chef during competition may have done it. Whatever the rationale or logic, her 'lie, steal, cheat, kill or die' attitude for perfecting her art led her into the arms of Clan Toreador.

She quickly made her way to America after her embrace to be with her sire, learning everything Julius had to offer. As an avid student, she found herself taking some instruction in basic combat skills from her sire's spouse, Lucus Grunwald. So fond of her new found family Petra took Julius' last name (at the time) to better honor her line. After Lucus' death she kept her name hyphenated in his memory. She stayed close to Julius after his passing, and was thrown into a deep state of mourning along with Julius upon the death of her brood-mate Aegis Cole.

After her sire stepped down from her position as Prince Petra began considering a change of scenery for herself. She allegedly rolled out a large map of the united states and threw a dart to determine where she would be moving. However it would seem she never lost her taste for travel or wanderlust.

The Toreador has also made quite a splash in the domain of her broodmate Zackary Cole while visiting with her sire. She was also spotted out in public dancing with Prince Luther Rommell. She won't let him live down the fact that he told her he would take her out on a date in DC, but never followed up.

She has recently come to be the caretaker of Dr. Ion, a scientifically gifted ghoul whose vivid imagination for innovation matches her excitement for culinary discovery. She is incredibly protective of him and his time, and is known to charge for it if she feels it will take him away from his projects.

After a trip to Columbus, Ohio and an extended conversation with their Keeper, she has been struck with inspiration and is rumored to be quietly working on a surprise for him.

Her most recent travels have landed her in Baltimore, Maryland. She left the weekend with a Boon from a Prince, gifts from a suitor, and a shorter temper for a certain Tremere.

She has recently taken the Primogen seat of Atlanta, Georgia, a reputedly cursed spot for Toreador after David Blanchett vacated the position, as well as existence.

"I am robbed of your wit I enjoyed in Ravenna."

"Performance art?"

"Here, I will teach you the German swears!"

"I think I have a crush on him."

Elder: Now you speak English. Other than being Nazi? Non.

Petra: Nein, I am not part of a defunct class of bigots. I have a question for you, how do you say, 'I surrender' in French? Or do you say it in German?

"-if you want what you cannot have then you will always have disappointment. Be like me, want what you have, then make others want you. Denial of others is sweeter than denial of self."

"Next time you wear the pants and pay for things, I already pay for limo!"

"I find better, that more interest comes from seeing, and listening, than person prattling aimlessly."
