Character Information

Davy hails from the great state of Alabama, which anyone with ears to hear will be aware of within moments of meeting him. His "rural" accent and mannerisms are the butt of many a joke, but most of those are told by Davy himself.

While it's rare these nights to hear at gather, Davy is most famous for his skills on the saxophone. He plays for Princes, Archons, countless other luminaries of the Camarilla, and if rumors are to be believed, other supernaturals as well.

Known History

Davy's mouth has been known to get him in trouble on occasion, but as his time among his more refined clanmates grows, Davy has calmed down a great deal and learned a little about what it is to be a team player. He's worn (and lost) a number of hats during his time in Atlanta, including Whip, Lesser Harpy, and Keeper.

Davy had a fairly public feud with the Brujah of Atlanta, culminating in an Elysium debate between himself, Harpy (at the time) Victor Creed, and Victor's broodmate, former Archon Jon Sebastian on the nature of Elysium and whether or not powers of the blood could lawfully be used. Years of practice at the sax instead of speeches did not help Davy, and he was soundly defeated. He spent the rest of his time as Keeper a shell of his former vibrant self, growing a chip on his shoulder towards the Brujah that many insist he still carries to this night.

His tenure of Keeper ended after the 2009 Atlanta Gala, when he was publicly stripped of status for inadequate event preparations. Davy did not even attempt to play politics, focusing instead on his music and trying to return to his roots as an affable good old boy. It seemed to pay off; after almost a year in the political wilderness, Davy rose to become Primogen of his clan in Atlanta after Lilyanna moved to take up a position the court of Middle Georgia.

More recently, Davy's time has been taken up by his efforts at dealing with the Uninvited and the accompanying Infernal Plague. To this end, he has hosted numerous visitors in Atlanta and has even joked that Prince McMillan has him on speed dial specifically for questions of Hospitality for upcoming visitors.

A musical demon has somehow gotten loose in Atlanta, and Davy seems to think that he is the best person to deal with it. Whether or not he is right is yet to be seen.

  • "I speak proper English, not this strange dialect you seem to have picked up!" - Rachel Dubhan, to Davy
  • "Piss on 'em!" - Davy, about the Setites
  • "Hang 'em all." - Davy, when asked about infernalists such as Wayne Brady

Rumors

  • Davy faced the Devil in a musical duel...and won.
  • Davy has walked into and out of Anarch-held cities without a scratch on him.
  • Some feel that Davy is completely out for himself, and doesn't care about his Clan.
  • His clan is trying to make him gay.
  • Davy can't actually play worth a damn; his instrument plays itself. It was a magical gift, either from the Tremere, from the Setites, or from the Devil himself. And now, it's busted.
  • Davy doesn't enter torpor during the day, as long as he's playing music.
  • Davy's mortal family is old money from New England. His accent, his folksy ways, are all just a mask.
  • Davy started a riot to rescue a mortal reporter he has been dating. The fate of the men who kidnapped her is a gruesome tale indeed.
  • Using Telepathy on Davy is inadvisable. His music dominates his thoughts, as it would dominate the mind of any to hear it in such a pure way.
