His skin is somewhat flushed and he blinks and shows other signs of mortal health (OOC: Blush of Health).

Known History

Player Portrait: Greg Vass

Chris has considered himsself aristocracy in a few ways. First, his mortal French family was one of the few noble families that escaped the French Revolution by going into exile. Secondly, he speaks of how the Brujah were considered one of the High Clans for millennia, and how some of the Idealists such as himself still strive to bring decency, peace, and civility into mortal society and the Camarilla. Finally, Chris considers non-Sabbat Kindred to be the ultimate form of nobility.

Chris arrived in Washington, D.C from Paris in 2004. He quickly secured the position of Primogen, serving modestly in that position for some time. He was then elevated to Keeper of Elysium under Prince Lumen Gunn in 2006, serving honorably and efficiently for a few years. The Brujah was also a professor of history at Georgetown University for five years. Chris supported the arts and worked with Clan Toreador in their endeavors.

Then suddenly out of the blue in 2010, he disappeared from the Washington and even his ghouls and newly-embraced childe Kirsten could not find him for a time. Chris now relates an incident were a strange, waif-like, beautiful woman cursed him and robbed him of much of his memories. After that bizarre encounter, he wandered West, eventually settling in Quebec City, Canada for a number of years under Prince Annabelle of Clan Tremere. Chris supported the sieges of Grand Forks, ND against both the Sabbat and the Garou and eventually settled in that domain for a few years after it was re-taken.

After tiring of the pace of life in the bucolic Mid-West and yearning for the faster-paced unlife of the Mid-Atlantic, he made an appearance at the 2019 Glitter and Gloom in Baltimore. From there, he settled in the Domain of Annapolis after proving himself in battle against the Daeva. He gained his ultimate measure of personal status in a brutal fight in May 2019 against the Rebellion in Philadelphia that almost cost him his unlife. He is now an adjunct Professor of History.

Though has is a bit more disposed more towards more elegantly and refined Kindred, he still supports groups like the rough-and ready-Anarchs, downtrodden mortals, and fully embraces the idea of the Camarilla as a meritocracy. His ultimate stated goal seems to be to uplift mortal and Kindred Society.
