Character Information

Known History

Embraced in Europe sometime in the last century, Jon-Apolo is a recent transplant to the United States. Why he was embraced into Clan Tremere is a matter of conjecture, as his physical appearance sets him apart from the majority of his clan. His congenial and affable nature further distinguishes him from his clan-mates, and makes him popular in the social circles of the Camarilla.

Jon-Apolo is known to be a rake, scoundrel and a womanizer. His often scandalous behavior, while amusing to the Camarilla at large, has made him unpopular within his own clan. Despite his clan’s disapproval (or perhaps because of it), he is often overheard chiding his clan about their aloof and secretive nature, and their lack of social graces.

In early 2011, many Kindred noticed a pronounced change come over Jon-Apolo. His normally devil-may-care attitude was replaced by a quiet, brooding melancholy. Whispers in Elysium speculate that he was deeply shaken by the death of longtime ally and friend Jakob Phuridae. Darker rumors yet hint that he was tainted by encounters with malefic spiritual entities, or that he hunts mortals for some perverse pleasure. Whatever the cause, his actions have given many Kindred cause for worry .... but not for long. Befitting his mercurial nature, Jon-Apolo overcame whatever anxiety had plagued him, and began to concentrate on assisting Prince Desmond "Dizzy" Lockhardt in the demands of running a large domain.

At the July 2011 Global Conclave held in Columbus, Ohio, Jon-Apolo, along with Kate Davidson, was appointed moderator for the Conclave debate.

To the chagrin of many (including himself), Jon-Apolo was appointed Archon to His Avian Excellency, Justicar Cock Robin, at the MidWinter Celebration in January 2012. Shortly thereafter, he survived an assassination attempt by an infernally resurrected evil bitch.

Heaven bent to take my hand,

I got caught up in all there was to offer.
And the cost was so much than I could bear.

Though I've tried,
