Harpies are generally from the Toreador clan but some have chosen the Brujah or other clans to hold the station. Harpies communicate with other through various secret channels. As such it is a very bad idea to cross a Harpy for all Domains will hear of it soon after.<br>

Harpies consider themselves to be the "voice of society" and can be quite brutal with their comments. Newcomers to a Domain are advised to ensure the Harpy is aware of their arrival so proper arrangements can be made for safely entering the Domain. Some Harpies charge the arrivals a "boon" or favor for such assistance but not always.<br>

When dealing with Harpies it is best to remember that they are generally extremely skilled in social skills, quite vain and will always make sure they come out ahead in any deal. Treat them with respect, keep your business short, leave them in peace and you may end your visit to an Elysium without too much trouble waiting for you on your return home.<br></font>

This page is designed to let players circulate the more 'permanent' rumors that exist within the sect and the clan. It is also a means by which new players can get a sense of what is going on within the Camarilla without having to go looking for +bboard posts in-game.
 
  
Players should feel free to edit their clan's rumors especially if there are some juicy current events.
 
  
For Example:
 
  
# New Primogen
 
# New Whip
 
# A Feud between two clans
 
# Any recent business at Court

This page is to track the large rumors that circulate within and around the vampire community of Prospect.
 
Such rumors are what would be known to those who have done any level of investigation as to the political climate of the city.
 
 
==What is Known==
 
#'''Truce:''' There is some degree of truce between the Camarilla and the Sabbat within the city. They have, essentially, split the city down the middle with the Highway being the dividing line. The Camarilla have the east and downtown and the Sabbat have the West.
 
#'''Giovanni Death:''' Rumor has it that Don Ignacio of the Giovanni was recently murdered. Because of this, the treaty between his clan and the Tremere for the protection of the Traitorous Gargoyle, [[Draven]] was broken. Due to this dissolution the Keeper of the Elysium and Primogen of the Clan Toreador, [[Madeline]], offered her personal protection to the creature.
 
#'''Disease:'''There was a time in the history of this Praxis where Prince Casman lost his Praxis to a Sabbat disease. All, even the oldest here, are quite new to the area, considering.

This page is to track the large rumors that circulate within and around the vampire community of Prospect, specifically pertaining to the Actions and Activities at Court
 
Such rumors are what would be known to those who have done any level of investigation as to the political climate of the city.
 
 
==November 1, 2013==
 
#'''Gangrel:'''A young, untrained Gangrel named "[[Never]]", sought permission to join the Camarilla at the first court of November with the sponsorship of none other than Elder Aeric of Clan Tremere. The Seneschal appointed him a few tasks to complete before permission would be granted for him to become a member.
 
#'''Sheriff:'''The sheriff has been a very unreliable post. The appointee is either ostracized, leaves, or is killed off
 
==November 15, 2013==
 
#'''New Rose:'''A new Toreador named Raksemi presented herself to the Court; apparently a neonate. She's apparently terrified of the Sabbat.
 
#'''A Herald:'''The Herald of Aeric of the Tremere presented his sponsor's concerns that the Seneschal was not dealing with the clan's concerns about the situation with Draven.
 
#'''A Failure:'''Elder Aeric declared that the current Seneschal, Jax Xander, a spineless kindred who does not see to the needs of the Praxis but rather allows murders to roam free.
 
#'''Masquerade:'''Aeric accuses Jax of sheltering a Primogen who has broken the Masquerade.
 
#'''Nosferatu:''' A new skulker has arrived within the city but he's not like any other Nosferatu that anyone's seen. This one dresses like a Ventrue, talks like a Tremere and insults like a Toreador.
 
#'''Clan War?:''' The Seneschal, upon granting the Territory of the University to the Brujah, has, according to the Tremere Primogen, initiated a Clan War between Brujah and the Tremere.
 
#'''Universal Truce:'''There seems to be a tentative truce between the Tremere, Nosferatu and Brujah as to who would control the University. Rumor has it that the three clans might be working together to ensure the safety and prosperity of the grounds on all sides (within, without and below).

#'''Elysium:'''The Brujah hold domain over [[The Oasis Casino]] which has been declared as an Elysium by the Prince. The Casino is maintained by Silvana, Ghoul to Bella Mondragon (Npc) of the Brujah.

Then go to the Emerald Plaza Elysium and seek out Gladys!
#'''Never:''' A Tremere Elder has made this newly turned child, Never, his Herald; his personal representative. What the hell was the man thinking? Never has only been 'of the blood' for a month.
 
#'''Dawn:''' [[Dawn Saulnier|Dawn]], the new Cajun Gangrel, used to be a member of the Sabbat. Like, a full on slavering, diablerising, Cam-murdering Sabbat soldier. But something happened in South Dakota a year ago that's made her decide to go Cam. Or maybe she's a spy? She apparently also met with the Seneschal, [[Jax]], and for some reason he gave her probationary status until she can prove she isn't still psycho.

====Reminders====
#'''Nov 3rd, 2017:''' [[Caerus]] was welcomed back to Prospect by Prince Torvik, among others. And promptly named Deputy, because we're desperate or Tremere are scary, I guess.
+
'''1)''' All rumors are considered IC from your PC. <br>
#'''Dec 12th, 2017:''' [[Caerus]] lead an effort into countering the weather trouble. Apparently there was something magical about Titan.
+
'''2)''' As with +Harpyreq, making use of the Gladys object means that the Harpies ''(NPCs and PCs)'' '''will know who''' is starting a rumor. You have to go up and have a chat to get things started, after all.  <br>
#'''Dec 27th, 2017:''' A clay golem attacked a Toreador property, Lionne Studios. So far no one has publicly blamed the Tremere. Nobody let something escape their lab, right? The Sheriff and Toreador Primogen are investigating. But that sure sounds like a Tremere thing, right?
+
'''3)''' Any rumor submitted does not mean that Gladys believes it or endorses it, she just LOVES to gossip!<br>
#'''Jan 5th, 2018:''' [[Caerus]] announced he's starting a new place to honor the dead, offering free funerals and ceremonies. We should expect rumors of a new cult. Is he trying to bring pitchforks and torches back into style?

Harpies are both feared and trusted. They are trusted as they are the official recorders of debts owed, status gained and can serve as diplomats or envoys to other domains.

They are feared as they are unusually aware of dirty little secrets, crimes committed in other cities and if they have a mind to are able to raise a Kindred to the heights of legend or to destroy their reputation forever.

Harpies are generally from the Toreador clan but some have chosen the Brujah or other clans to hold the station. Harpies communicate with other through various secret channels. As such it is a very bad idea to cross a Harpy for all Domains will hear of it soon after.

Harpies consider themselves to be the "voice of society" and can be quite brutal with their comments. Newcomers to a Domain are advised to ensure the Harpy is aware of their arrival so proper arrangements can be made for safely entering the Domain. Some Harpies charge the arrivals a "boon" or favor for such assistance but not always.

When dealing with Harpies it is best to remember that they are generally extremely skilled in social skills, quite vain and will always make sure they come out ahead in any deal. Treat them with respect, keep your business short, leave them in peace and you may end your visit to an Elysium without too much trouble waiting for you on your return home.

IC Rumors

Want to share a rumor? Stir the pot? Make it anonymous to the general public?

Then go to the Emerald Plaza Elysium and seek out Gladys!

Helpful Hints

  • !rumor - will give you the help screen.
  • When submitting a rumor - the name must have NO spaces, and no longer than 14 characters.
  • Regular formatting you would use for board posts does not work well, so keep it short, sweet, and do not attempt %t, %r, of colors.
  • At the top of the hour, your rumor will be posted to bboard 19!

Reminders

1) All rumors are considered IC from your PC.
2) As with +Harpyreq, making use of the Gladys object means that the Harpies (NPCs and PCs) will know who is starting a rumor. You have to go up and have a chat to get things started, after all.
3) Any rumor submitted does not mean that Gladys believes it or endorses it, she just LOVES to gossip!
