| |
| − | There's not much "Known" about Randall Scott. Even his name is a fraud, which he will cheerfully admit. He's (depending on when you ask) from Arkansas, California, Oklahoma, or any number of other places. Sometimes he lived through the Great Depression, sometimes he missed it. He may have served in the Pacific during the Second World War, maybe he fought in Korea, perhaps he's criminal and the only serving he did was on the chain gang. The only consistent portions of his story are that he grew up poor, went "On the Road" while wandering the United States, has always been able to talk to ghosts, and considers himself to be a voodoo sorcerer (a Bokor).

| − | Having arrived back in Baltimore after spending five years in Ohio, Randall seems...different. Instead of a gregarious and friendly man, quick with a joke and a grin, he's much more grim. There's a tightness about him. He's much more fatalistic, and his laugh is strained. His humor turns more and more to the macabre and the absurd. Rumor has it that he's on the outs with his Clan, but he refuses to speak about it or confirm it...he simply says that he's on "Sabbatical". He very rarely makes appearances at Court, preferring his own company (and presumably the company of the Restless Dead) to the company of other Kindred and the power games they inevitably bring along with them.

| |
| − | *"Oh, I've been there! Well, not since I died..."
| |
| − | *"Magic is dumb."
| |
| − | *"Hallucinogens alter your consciousness. They pierce the veil and allow you to commune with the spirit world. That's why they're used in so many shamanic rites. Also, they let you see dragons. And that's pretty cool."
| |
| − | *“Oh, yeah, when I went to the Clan Fair in my High School gymnasium the Tremere booth really called out to me. It had a great pamphlet, and I really liked the idea of having a career as a ‘Untrustworthy Blood Mage that will sell his mother for a nickel and get all Jaffar on some Prince’. So that’s why I totally chose to be a Tremere! What…you didn’t go to a job fair and choose to be what Clan you are?”
| |
| − | *"You hate all Tremere, huh? You hate a large group of individuals based on a few common traits? So...you're a racist. That's cool, I'm not here to judge. At least with an honest racist I know where I stand."
| |
| − | *"(Laughs) Do you have any idea just how absurd all of this is! It's amazing!"
| |
| − | *"Fuck it. Let's get stoned."

| |
| − | *(Tremere only) He was the only Regent to volunteer to defend Lord Alexander Kull, former head of the Horned Society, at his Tribunal. He was unsuccessful.
| |
| − | *(Tremere only) If Randall Scott is defending you at your Tribunal, you have done fucked up: He will defend you with passion, with elan, and will tip back a drink to your memory when he loses.
