FULLNAME: Doctor Ignacio Giovanni

CLAN Giovanni

DEMEANOR Deviant

BACKGROUND

Ignacio served for many years as ghoul to his sire, Claire Giovanni of River City, California. His skill as a surgeon is invaluable among the wealthy and those who wish their injuries to remain anonymous. River City was a failed experiment in an Independent Princedom, free of Camarilla and Sabbat Influence. Ignacio's sire, unlike other Giovanni was not cursed with a painful bite. More like their Cappadocian predecessors, Claire was afflicted with a deathly pallor which made her not quite trusted in the family. She was tolerated, however because of her power. She asked permission to embrace Ignacio and it was granted. However, the rest of the clan made sure that Claire was targetted by the Sabbat who raised River City and destroyed its power structure. Ignacio defeated Claire's killer by shoving him into a crematory chamber, but it was not in time to save his sire. Thinking quickly, he used IV lines and pumps from his operating room to effectively embrace himself. The Giovanni begrudgingly have accepted the lie that he was embraced prior to Claire's death. Ignacio comes now to Prospect to start anew, not trusting that his clanmates have his best interest at heart.
