Character Inspirations
The Gangrel Antiquarian in the Dirty Secrets of the Black Hand book was one of the first truly "against normal type" character templates I remember seeing when I started playing Vampire. While I have always managed to play something just slightly different than the Clan Stereotype, I never went fully throwback toward an entirely different aspect of a Clan's historical stereotype like I wanted to do with MEH. With the Brujah's history as philosophers and curse of rage, I looked for a challenge in balancing the desire for rational thought with a in-character reluctance to face things that would knowingly cause a possible frenzy, building an inherent fear alongside the character as he developed to balance the calm outward perception he emanates. Other "against type" templates came down the line over the years, but the image of the dignified Gangrel with a pocketwatch stuck with me, and I couldn't think of an idea that fit my desire better than a Brujah Bookkeeper.
Also, an alliterative appeal always assists.

Quotes
In Regards to Historical Accuracy and Consistency: "I personally feel you give great shame to your works of tragedy by resorting to simplistic attempts to bait Finn by attempting an offense toward his personal sense of honor and bravery, simply calling out "coward" toward this, and "coward" toward that diminishes my personal opinion of your more elevated works and does make me revisit my thought you were the true scribe of the Sysiphus fragments, and instead as the historians have thought, it belongs to Euripides. If, in fact, you are the same Critias."
