You'll never grow old, and you'll never die. But you must feed.

The Lost Boys is an Anarch pack within the city of Prospect.

Operating as a group for those vampires who do not wish to involve themselves, directly, in the politics of the Sabbat or the Camarilla, we are an informal 'Brotherhood' bound by friendship, loyalty and trust.

We take care of our own - providing shelter to those we feel are deserving of it and exacting vengeance on anyone who decides to fuck with us.

We're not here to break Kindred society - just have our place in it.

Territory

The Lost Boys claim (or are trying to claim) a small territory east of the overpass (Camarilla Territory) from first and second avenues and between D streets and Market.

This is a small territory to claim, only two square blocks in essence and on the fringe of Camarilla Territory, and there's no reason to think that the Seneschal would reject our claim. Essentially it puts a coterie between his lands and the Sabbat so he should like having more 'cannon fodder'.


Basic Rules

The coterie is Camarilla sanctioned but not Camarilla exclusive. Some of the rules of the Camarilla, even if you're not a member, make sense if you're just a lowbie and not wanting to go to war with everyone every night.

  • Keep the Masquerade. Its just good idea for everyone all around.
  • Protect our Turf. We may not have much but we need to protect what's ours.
  • Respect the Turf of Another. Do not, DO NOT, go into someone else's house and start crap.
  • Don't Bring Home No Babies. Turning someone should be a group decision. More mouths - less food.
  • One for all. All for One. If you mess up it's bad for all of us. So don't get us into a war.
  • Don't start stuff We Have to Finish. We'll back you up but don't get us in too deep or we'll drop you.

Communal Haven
The Lost Boys have a haven they share with each other for mutual aid and support. The haven, an abandoned theater, is large enough to accommodate their needs with plenty of spaces for them to crash as well as providing ample security and protection from the sun.

On Being an Anarch

Being a Lost Boy goes hand-in-hand with being an Anarch. That is to say that when a neonate is confronted by the sheer weight of traditional authority of the Camarilla or the Fanatical Devotion of the Sabbat - those who chose neither will often end up stuck in the middle. They are, quite literally, stuck between a rock (the Tower) and a sharp place (the Sword). So what is a vampire to do? Well, the Elders of the Camarilla will always consider themselves in control of the city. The Pack Leaders of the Sabbat will always consider themselves trying to rip control from the Camarilla.

This is, essentially, like two opposing gangs trying to control a prison and you're the new meat. Do you attempt to make friends within the Camarilla and hope the Sabbat won't shank you the first time you're alone? Do you jump at the fanatics and hope that your new brothers and sisters won't send you to die to take out one of the Elders of the rival 'gang'? Or...do you find a few friends who will watch your back and lay low and let the two big gangs fight it out for themselves.

Why be their weapon?

On the Camarilla

Let's be real - in the war for control of the Night, we're probably better off with the Camarilla in charge than the Sabbat. At least the Camarilla have rules that we can 'generally' live by. With the Sabbat running things, they're just as likely to send you to your final death against some Elder if it's For the Cause that they would help you at all. But, we have no problem, really, with the Camarilla - just the geritocracy who run it.


On the Sabbat
Sabbat.png     Unlife as a Neonate or rebel is unpleasant at best for the most part. There's a constant search for blood, hiding from the sun, and trying not to get yourself staked every night, night after night, for eternity. The Camarilla can be aggravating with their idea that "You are a part of us whether you acknowledge it or not" philosophy, but it's SO much better than the Sabbat's "If you aren't 100 percent with us, you're an enemy and we're going to rip you to pieces or eat your soul" outlook.

Individual members of the Sabbat might not be as fanatical but on the whole, they tend to operate on a 'us or them' principle. This is usually bad for us in any case.

Wanted Concepts: Helpers

The Lost Boys are looking for daytime helpers. This could mean ghouls, blood boys, blood babes, or something there abouts. Characters who are interested should have or can adjust to a 'street' level of rp as the Lost Boys do not live in a high rise tower or in some lofty mansion. They live in abandoned buildings and exist by their own rules. The helpers are not 'slaves' to the Lost Boys - just friends who still happen to have a heart beat. If you are interested in such rp or would like to discuss it further please feel free to contact Never.

  • Ghouls would be cool if you want to play through the rp of being our ghoul.
  • Blood Boy/Babe would be very cool for a mortal character.
