Alias(es):
Tommy

Concept:
The degenerate of a fallen political family, who intends to enjoy himself until the end of time
Physical description:

When attending gather, he generally dresses in quality clothing; black pants, a red shirt, and black blazer. He is especially noted for always having a rose tucked into his jacket's vest pocket, and for his silver rose necklace.

Acknowledged by Charles McMillan, Prince of Atlanta
Praised by Warren Oak, then Primogen in Atlanta
Character Information
Known History
Thomas was the second son of a once-great political family, based out of Rome, Georgia. His family has fallen on hard times in the last several years- while still prosperous and well-known, their star has passed, as a series of scandals and tragedies in the mortal world rocked them- unbeknownst, consequences of the Rebellion's activity in Georgia, disrupting the control of elders whom had more than once used the Heard family as their cats-paw. Thomas himself drifted through these tragedies, content with an easy life of living off a trust fund and his connections- culminating in a fateful meeting with Angelica Fishbourne-Rose, who Embraced Thomas, giving him an eternity to dedicate to find himself.
He has only recently returned from touring the courts of France, where he has been for the last five years. And he is totally not insufferable about name-dropping this fact.
Allies
Allies is such a strong word. Thomas gets along well with many Kindred, but isn't sure he would call any allies- especially not so recently after his long absence.
Lilyanna Salvatore has at least expressed some admiration towards some of his poetry. Is that alliance? Seems a slender thread.
Enemies
Enemies is likewise, a tremendously strong word. Who could be bothered to find enemity with such a fop?
Sire
Angelica Fishbourne-Rose (NPC) - A Toreador political machinist
Childer
None
Broodmates
He's never asked, and Angelica's never told him.

Quotes
"What do I do? I seek to entertain myself- it can be most trying."

Rumors
- Thomas is actually a Toreador antitribu, in league with the Rebellion.
- He did return on the heels of a spike of Rebellion activity.
- And on his first night back in Middle Georgia, he did lead the bulk of the domain to an art showing that was set up by the Rebellion.
- Thomas is actually a Venture infiltrator.
- He's often mistaken for one, probably thanks to the jacket.
- Also, his Sire is married to Marcus Fishbourne, a powerful Venture, who advised his Accounting.
- Thomas can't actually write poetry to save his life

- He has a ghouled poet, and presents said work as his own.
- He lost a poetry contest against a Gangrel.
