Attending gathers in Atlanta maybe half the time, Claude is normally seen talking with other attendees on the hot topics of the night, although he is generally reluctant to engage problems apart from using Psychic Projection. When people ask him what magic he knows, "Nothing useful" is his most common refrain, followed by a passionate explanation of complexity theory, ''n''-dimensional matrices, and how such things can apply to financial markets and other chaotic phenomena. He's rarely asked about his magical skills after such digressions, allowing more time to start conversations more interesting to him with questions like "Can Kindred use Earth Meld on Mars?"

Character Information

Known History

Little is known about the enterprising neonate Claude Schaeffer, but the Lasombra antitribu Jon Mavros credited him with helping to procure art pieces for Sovereign Prince McMillan's celebration in December 2022. At the same event, he hosted a game that attracted considerable interest from both newcomers and established citizens of Atlanta, collecting over 20 boons on his first night in the city. His clanmate, Atlanta Keeper Dr. B, awarded Claude Industrious standing that very evening.

Claude attends gatherings in Atlanta about half the time. He’s often seen engaging in conversation on the night’s trending topics but typically avoids getting involved in conflicts, except through the use of Psychic Projection. When asked about his magical abilities, his usual response is, "Nothing useful," before launching into an enthusiastic explanation of complexity theory, n-dimensional matrices, and their applications to financial markets and other chaotic systems. These digressions usually ensure he's not asked further about his magical skills, leaving him free to shift the conversation to subjects that interest him more, like "Can Kindred use Earth Meld on Mars?"

In December 2023, Claude once again collaborated with members of the Atlanta domain for a "Clan Pride" themed party. Although less social this time—having outsmarted himself with the scoring model he created for the evening's games—the event was well-received. He earned praise and standing for his efforts from the local Tremere Primogen.

Venturing beyond Atlanta, Claude has demonstrated investigative expertise in at least one neighboring domain. He’s quick to point out, however, that he feels more comfortable inscribing equations with chalk than analyzing crime scenes. In line with this, he’s been hired by parties in Middle Georgia to consult on projects requiring his mathematical insight.

Recent nights have seen his star rise - over the course of 6 months, Claude has ascended to the title of Primogen of his clan in Atlanta, been awarded status by a neighboring primogen for his efforts contributing to an investigation of a Masquerade breach, and joined the ranks of the Elysian Knights Society.

  • None publicly known

Character Inspirations

Soundtrack

Quotes

  • "I'm not that kind of Tremere."
  • "Magic? Only if you consider mathematics magic. Right now I'm working on trading algorithms using normed-division algebra so I can utilize sedenions and octonions for higher-dimensional analyses..."
  • "Mathemagical!"

Rumors

  • Claude doesn't know any of the thaumaturgy for which his clan is known.
    • No, he does. His chosen field of study is just so arcanely theoretical that none of it is practical on a nightly basis.
