Domain History

In 1737 the Ventrue Clan sent Brigadier José da Silva Paes to secure Portuguese domain in southern Brazil. He builds Fort Jesus-Mary-Joseph on the shore of Rio Grande de São Pedro and subsequently establishes a town of the same name. The Ventrue Ancilla Dom Paulo Francisco de Almeida Magalhães accompanies him on the expedition, settling in the town and making it his domain. For years, the town of Rio Grande de São Pedro defended itself from the constant threat caused by the Spanish Sabbat. In 1835 the village is elevated to category of city and begins the Ragamuffin War. In that same year the first Council of Primogens in the history of the city was formed, having the following names: Astro Egoyan from the Brujah Clan, Pedro Ramón de La Sierra y Mongrovejo from the Gangrel Clan, Julius from the Malkavian Clan, Rômulo from the Nosferatu Clan, Helena Crivelli from the Toreador Clan, Abdiel from the Tremere Clan and Maron Nemer Vargas, a.k.a. Garel, from the Ventrue Clan; also, the most important positions were defined as follows: Dom Paulo Francisco de Almeida Magalhães as Prince, Julius as Seneschal, Pedro Ramón de La Sierra y Mongrovejo as Keeper of Elysium, Astro Egoyan as Sheriff, Rômulo as Scourge and Helena Crivelli as Harpy. In the following years, with the Camarilla well structured and the Sabbath far, the city grew a lot. The fine situation continues until 1998, when a meeting is held to discuss the large number of Neonates in the city, and something unexpected happens: Rio Grande's eternal prince, Dom Paulo Francisco de Almeida Magalhães, is found dead, increasing tension among the Clans in the city. Initially, Astro Egoyan is charged with the death of the Ventrue, but evidence leads to the Malkavian Julius, who is captured by Rômulo. From there the situation of the city becomes unstable. Several well-known names emerge in the coming years, such as the Brujah Linus Thostvald, Egon Santini Filho, Anti-Cimex and Eric Creed, the Ventrue Dom Afonso Henrique de Menezes, the Toreador Gabriel Vieira Van Glow, the Gangrel Dirty Jack, the Malkavian Sérgio Martins da Silveira and the Nosferatu Francisco da Silveira, Johann Zielsky, Jacob Rheingantz, Caliban and Kaluya Young Lee. Unfortunately, many new enemies appeared and the Ivory Tower has gone through difficult times. It is in this situation that Dom Cipriano José Valera returns to the city as Prince to put things back on track. Under his leadership, the Camarilla is restructured and several enemies are destroyed, expanding the boundaries of the domain to the western border of the state. In the following year, 2008, with the situation under control, Dom Cipriano José Valera continues his crusade against the Sabbat, leaving the city of Rio Grande. This time was marked by a series of political disputes, constantly changing the praxis of the Domain, leaving some prominent names such as Ezequiel Schneider, Guillermo Bononne, Sebastian Frey, Isaac Hansen, Rômulo Medeiros, François Chevalier, Vincent Vartan, Leonardo Kennon, Oliver Widrik, Catherine Windsor and Hassan Al-Hamed, the latter being the most durable. Even with some problems, the Child of Haqim remained a strong Prince for three years, until he was killed by assassins of the Assamite Clan. Currently Rio Grande is in a moment of reconstruction under the leadership of a new Prince.
