Character Information

Known History

Rishi arrived in Istanbul a number of years ago, seeking Acknowledgement. He remained there until 2006, when he returned to the US. Since that time, he has lived in several domains, previously serving as Sheriff, Harpy, and Seneschal. His probationary sect standing was removed shortly after the 2008 Conclave. He's been known to travel with a variety of Kindred, providing logistics, intel and support to help expunge domains of the Sabbat.

Rishi was chosen to be an Archon under Justicar Lucinde in 2010. He served until late 2011, and was released from service. Speculation still exists as to why.

Rishi was present during several encounters with the infernal kindred known as Baali, and is rumored to have traveled extensively during the time period known as the Year of Fire to take the fight to them.

After being released from his duties as Archon Rishi spent time as a nomad, wandering through Canada, the Midwest, Southeast and Mid-Atlantic. There has been speculation that he was chasing the remnants of the infernalists, hunting wayward clanmates or possibly trying to get his mind right after all that he had seen. None of these rumors have been confirmed.

Currently, Rishi spent some time as a Primogen in the domain of Imperial Prince Kelly, though he continues to be spotted in domains across the US. His life has been far less public than it once was. The reason for this remains largely unknown.

• To Piscin: "Piscin, you really are the random exception. To everything. I've just come to accept that about you."
• Piscin to Rishi: (as a member of the Sabbat blathers on while they sit slightly away from the conversation) "This is what you do, isn't it? People see you and look right through you. It must make you really good at your job, because you're constantly underestimated."
