Rumours from Toronto for Early January

Remember: ALL of the items on this page are fictional. All persons, cities, gods, and worlds on this page are imaginary. Any coincidence of names is regretted.

Prissy Prince?
The Prince of Toronto is nothing more than a sham of a Brujah, and has no right to call himself a Brujah. In actual fact it is the Ventrue whom he serves, specifically Patrick O'Shea. One the other hand, some believe that O'Shea is Frank Harcourt's 'bitch'. But whatever the case, the Prince is considered to be of an unsuitable generation to rule the city, has thus far displayed no backbone, and because of this, many people have expressed the opinion that the Domain of Toronto is up for grabs.

Imposter Paranoia
After the discovery of Kindred imposters in the Domain of Toronto, many other domains within North America have started to get extremely paranoid, and with the aid of Clan Tremere are again conducting checks into the identities of the Kindred within their Domains.

Imposter Paranoia II
Refugees from Washington, Baltimore and Atlanta have started appearing in Camarilla cities. They are being held by local Sheriffs until their identities can be verified.

Assamite Assurances
The Assamite have reported that they have had limited success with their current tactics against the Sabbat and have more extreme measures planned for the near future. They wish to assure the Camarilla that they have no imperialistic desires.

Ravnos Upset?
Members of Clan Ravnos have been heard saying very unfriendly things about the Domain of Toronto. No one is quite sure what has motivated them.
