Overview

Davy and Sybil together soon after their wedding, a perfect picture of Kindred bliss.

Alias(es): Davy, Lips

Real Name: David Blanchett

Apparent Age: Early 30s

Concept: Southern Saxophonist/Composer of Things That Should Not Be

Physical description: Davy is just below average height, swarthy with a perpetual smirk. His attire started out as jeans and button-up shirt with an M&M tie (the blue one, playing the sax). Now he's almost always seen in a gray suit and black shirt, foregoing a tie.

  • Acknowledged by Prince Alex Silverson of Birmingham, Alabama


Toreador Prestige (Toreador Only):

  • Loyal
  • Devil's Bane on the Saxophone
    • Granted for winning a musical duel
  • Talented Composer
  • Talented Music Theorist
  • Fearless
    • Granted for fighting on the lines at the Battle of the Potomac against Hadrian's infernal hordes

Character Information

Known History

Davy, the music running through his head. (Sketch courtesy of Sean Carter)

Davy's history is peppered by compositions of incomparable beauty and mistakes of incomparable consequence. His time in Atlanta has seen him rise, fall, rise again, and fall again. He's served time as Keeper, Lesser Harpy, Whip, and Primogen. The last of those he kept for a number of years before his incomparably consequential encounter with a wizard as mad as he in Middle Georgia.

He is none-too-popular these days in Georgia, or even amongst large swaths of his clan. Of course, he's lucky to still walk the nights having broken the First Tradition in as spectacular a manner as he did. Between demons, supremely Elder Malkavians, and mad mages, Davy's next "project" may very well be his last.

Of course, all of this has to be worth it, doesn't it? His musical skills are second-to-none. He has performed on his saxophone for many a luminary of the Camarilla (and the courts of other supernatural denizens of Atlanta, it is rumored!) and his compositions have brought blood tears to the eyes of hardened killers. If Davy has gone mad (and he most certainly has), then it has had a purpose and yielded dividends for those able to appreciate what he can do.

Coterie

Quotes

  • "I'm not saying you shouldn't do business with Davy Blanchett, I'm saying that you can't handle doing business with Davy Blanchett." - Business associate to a former Prince about doing business with Davy.
  • "Bullshit!" - Davy, more times than he can count
  • "I speak proper English, not this strange dialect you seem to have picked up!" - Rachel Dubhan, to Davy
  • "Hang 'em all." - Davy, when asked about infernalists (such as Wayne Brady)
  • "When one is truly dedicated to their art, all else pales in comparison. That is the essence of Clan Toreador." - Davy, to Prince Charles McMillan
  • "Patterns of wind and water, falling from darkness but not into the light." - Davy, context unknown
  • "Davy, do you play with your food?" - asked of Davy as he toyed with a neonate in Elysium

Rumors

Something very much like this, indeed.
  • Had all but one status stripped away.
    • Still feels like he's won.
  • Had an exact duplicate made of himself.
  • Davy faced the Devil in a musical duel...and won.
    • Davy is an infernalist. It turns out that duels don't always end like they do in songs.
  • Some feel that Davy is completely out for himself, and doesn't care about his Clan.
    • Or any other clan for that matter. His disregard for the Masquerade will doom us all...
  • Loves to talk about himself, and then his music. Ask him about the Christmas album he plans on making this year.
  • Davy knows Necromancy, taught to him by the Baron Samedi, to whom he was introduced by Simon Random. That's how he finally got rid of the ghostly children that tailed him at Elysium...unless they were already bound to him, that is.
  • Using Telepathy on Davy is inadvisable. His music dominates his thoughts, as it would dominate the mind of any to hear it in such a pure way.
    • Using Telepathy on Davy is inadvisable simply because he's crazy. You don't want that to rub off on you.
      • Davy's not "simply" crazy. He's gone utterly mad.
  • Davy was trapped in another dimension.
    • It wasn't another dimension, it was an Elder Malkavian's mind.
      • The after-effects have been "interesting."
  • Is now happily married to a Tremere.
    • He still very publicly has several mistresses around the globe. Wonder how the women feel about each other?
  • Davy's chickens have finally come home to roost.
