Known History

credit Dani

Nasir showed up in the San Francisco Bay Area some time in 2008, mostly residing in Santa Rosa. There, he served as the Sheriff under Prince's Oz and Sangria de Corazon, Scourge and then Sheriff under Prince Warchild, and Sheriff under Prince Gray. He assisted in clearing Sabbat and demons from the area during the time before Assamites were fully accepted in the Camarilla. The year after his own Probationary Sect Membership was lifted, he assisted the Domain of Berkeley in taking down the Neo-Carthaginian Jean-Baptise and routing their numbers from nearby Napa County. For this, he was awarded the personal domain of Lake County and St. Helena over which he immediately declared an uncontested Praxis. The next year, the elder Toreador Lord Boreal awoke and quietly challenged Nasir's Praxis of Lake County and St. Helena and Nasir relented. Not wanting to cause a fuss, he left the area and wasn't seen or heard from for the next year until the Grand Elysium of San Francisco in 2017 where he was stripped of two measures of standing for abandoning his Praxis. Unfortunately for Nasir, his time on walk-about coincided with the disappearance of many of his clanmates and required him to answer several pointed questions from the Furies over his loyalty to the Camarilla. After they were satisfied, he was quickly recruited into the Ivory Legion where he has participated in ops across the Americas. Among these, he helped in the clearing of the Ebon Legion in the Amazon (he was awarded status by Prince Angelo of Philadelphia) notably clearing the field of Fomori with several of his clanmates to cover the evacuation of the wounded and protecting the body of a fallen comrade, standing against several Balam. Something happened to Nasir on his return from the Amazon. The stoic assassin he had been began to melt away showing a kindred who was far more outgoing, friendly, and genial. He started to settle into a role as a social and political voice in his home domain and the Camarilla at large. He was present in Annapolis during the execution of the Blood Hunt against Annalise Rowland where he dealt the final blows on two Black Spiral Dancers- one while stuck in the gauntlet- in what was described as "a whirlwind of steel" by one who was there (for which he was awarded standing by Prince Virgil Deems). In early 2022, he was named as the first Assamite Archon to the Tremere Justicar, Lotharius. This act seemed to have finished the transformation he began earlier in 2021. While still not a mover and shaker in the political world, he seemed to understand and even embrace his role as an Archon to Clan Tremere, knowing that the eyes of the Camarilla were watching his every step -- even if some of those eyes were waiting for him to mis-step. The formerly cold and distant assassin started to approach everything with an almost child-like (but not wholly ignorant) wonder. He proved his social chops on the biggest of stages, though not without some mistakes, and became a trusted resource and adjudicator for several of the Assamites, Tremere, and Brujah on the West Coast of the United States and even beyond. Though in late 2022 - early 2023 there was a shift in his demeanor. He often spoke openly about "living on borrowed time" and some close to him could see that darkness re-entering his mind. After a mission with his family in late 2022, which resulted in Clan Assamite experiencing a month of perpetual hunger, it was clear that he thought that the luck that guided him through these last decades - and through some of the biggest fights - was close to running out; openly speaking of a future without him in it. His premonitions would come true. After helping the Domain of Santa Rosa destroy a monster that had crept out of a rupture in the Abyss, he spent his remaining days in semi isolation, only seeing and speaking with his adopted daughter Nikita and none but his closest friends. On July 22nd, 2023, Nasir left for another mission with his family. Except this time, he didn't return. The details are still largely unknown but, what is known is that Nasir died in the desert somewhere in the Middle East, fighting alongside his family.
