Known History

Nothing is yet known of the enterprising neonate. The Lasombra Jon Mavros gave him credit for helping to procure pieces of art for Sovereign Prince McMillan's celebration in December 2023. He ran a game at the same event that saw a great deal of interest from visitors and established citizens of Atlanta alike, collecting over 20 boons the first night anyone met him.

His clanmate, Atlanta Keeper Dr. B, granted Claude his *Industrious standing that very night.

Attending gathers in Atlanta maybe half the time, Claude is normally seen talking with other attendees on the hot topics of the night, although he is generally reluctant to engage problems apart from using Psychic Projection. When people ask him what magic he knows, "I'm not quite that kind of Tremere" is his most common refrain, followed by a passionate explanation of complexity theory, n-dimensional matrices, and how such things can apply to financial markets and other chaotic phenomena. He's rarely asked about his magical skills after such digressions, allowing more time to start conversations more interesting to him with questions like "Can Kindred use Earth Meld on Mars?"

He followed his initial event up a year later, helping to throw a holiday party celebrating clan pride in December 2023. (He didn't engage in many festivities, spending his time in a corner with a laptop with spreadsheets he said were necessary to run the scoring formulae for the evening's game.)
