Character Information
Known History
The Brujah called "Niemand" was an officer and archaeologist in the Ahnenerbe and SS who very well might have been embroiled in any conspiracy theory you might see on a bad History Channel documentary. His embrace in the final nights of the war was a mixed reward and punishment, and he was forbidden from having an actual name for many years. Despite his seeming purgatory, Niemand refused to ever admit any public shame or guilt over the actions of his mortal compatriots, and in fact wore Nazi symbols as fashion accessories for a number of years. It is known that he has previously been allowed to embrace at least one Childer who was called Gunther, and embraced in the 1970s from among the apologist, hippie, socialist activists of the time.
Sort of a tomb raider for more powerful Kindred, Niemand infiltrated and stole artifacts from Setites and Tremere in Cleveland, Ohio. Following similar activity in Columbus, he disappeared for several months before returning with the goal of winning back the comradeship of his own clan mates. During the time he served as Scourge in Columbus, he methodically eliminated any un-Acknowledged Kindred who showed up. Intermittently serving as Primogen in Columbus (and seeing one misbegotten and very manipulataive neonate safely through the Accounting), Niemand stepped down from the position after a gruesome incident in Cleveland. He also lost three Status for the incident, and spent many months in penance (also learning alongside at least one Child of Haqim). Before resting in torpor (he claims) for several months, Niemand was named a Sword Bearer of Columbus, and publicly reclaimed his actual name - Magnus Kohler.
Upon recently awakening, Magnus disrupted a perceived power play in Prince Kein's court by interfering with the selection of harpy, even vying for it against a particularly vindictive Nosferatu called Devin Wax. When push came to shove, the Brujah shoved - and got shoved back. Learning that his perceived enemy was influenced by Disciplines left him eager to be done with the conflict, but it persisted. Magnus then supplanted longtime ally Viktor von Steinwitz as Primogen, for which blows were exchanged soon after. As Columbus expected to undergo "Ordeal" at the hands of the Nosferatu Justicar, Magnus receded from open activity to ready himself in ways he has been very vague about, during which time he was removed as Primogen. Returning after the threat of Ordeal ended, he sensed the city's Brujah were proving to be the expendable rabble many other clans wanted to define them as all along. Magnus took a back seat in order to see if anyone of promise would rise within the Clan as his childe was granted membership in the Primogen Council instead.
