Character Information
Known History
It is known that Lewis was embraced in 2004. The Harpy record shows his sire Dalvadian Von Grossig was granted right of Progeny by the Prince of Regina Emily Grail. It is also known that he was placed under the Accounting for two years, and was granted Acknowledgement by Prince Emily Grail in October of 2006.
After that, there's no record of Lewis until the Gimli Harpy noted his arrival to the Domain, in November of 2009. The note is as follows: "Nov-2009. Smithe, Lewis - Ventrue - Acknowledged by Prince Emily Grail, confirmed. Granted Hospitality by Toreador Prince Grover of Gimli".
It has been close to ten years since Lewis arrived in Gimli, excited and filled with optimism. And in those years, that optimism has been tempered and tested.
Lewis has survived Sabbat incursions and Lupine aggression, political upheaval and Influence wars. He has survived, for the most part, because of caution and prudence when picking his battles.
In 2019 he left the Domain of Gimli on "Clan business".
It was recorded in Early October 2021 that Lewis has returned to the Domain of Gimli.
Allies
- Lewis is quite friendly with the Malkavian Daniel Warren.
- He's arm wrestled (and lost) to Nikolai Volkov, but gained a measure of his respect.
- It's likely that Charlie doesn't want to gut him. At least, not anymore.
Enemies
Lewis has had a public discussion with Fury Prosymnus regarding Coteries. The Fury decided to pull rank and claim offense so that they could "win" the argument. It doesn't seem likely Lewis will forgive this.
Sire
