Known History

Jan, Budapest Underground.jpg

Jan's early life was spent as a lieutenant on a Dutch East India Company ship trading spice in the far east. He subsequently served as an officer on several British warships till his embrace. Since his embrace he has worked for the Ventrue Clan on several continents to further both Clan and Camarilla interests. He moved to the Domain of Griffin, Georgia, USA, in the Winter of 2014 and quickly became the local clan whip, then the Keeper of Elysium, then served as Primogen, then Seneschal of the domain.

After Prince Magnus removed himself to Florida in the winter of 2016, Jan took Praxis of the Domain at the insistence of the locals and held it for six months till a Clanmate's machinations unseated him. Jan was able to escape with his life despite the nature of the seizure, and now waits patiently to once again be called on to lead.

Jan routinely visits other domains and has established good relations with the citizens there.

On December 3rd 2016, Jan van Rheinlander claimed and held the Praxis of Griffin, Georgia.

Rumors

  • Isn't actually a vampire, he's an attorney who was too sociable to fit in human society, yet is attorney enough to fit in with the undead.
  • He collects water from every country he visits, keeping the bottles in his bar.

  • Lupines showed up in his haven, and somehow, no one died.
  • Jan has several Giovanni friends and seeks more.
  • Jan keeps the ashes of an elder Sabbat Lasombra in an urn on a shelf behind the bar in his den.

  • He is known for being willing to speak with anyone, vampire, lupine, wraith, fae, or hunter, so long as it doesn't break the masquerade.
  • Jan avoids physical confrontations because he can't stand up long in a fight.
  • Jan keeps a smoke monster he captured in his basement.

  • Jan house is insured for much more than it is worth.
  • Jan collects Teslas.
  • Jan is a sucker for pretty girls; they can get him to do just about anything.

    • ...cranberry Sprite?
    • I know what I said.
  • Jan has been known to refer to humans as 'muggles.'
    • ...and to mages as 'Harry Potter people.'

    • Archons investigating the mummy issue found that there was, in fact, no breach. The Scandal was all the making of an overly ambitious younger Ventrue.
    • The stripping stood, though. Hmm...
