Transcript of Prince Quentin King's speech in New Britain

by Kevin O'Connor

May 10th, 2017

(OOC: Posted publicly in the local Connecticut Elysiums by Harpy Parker of New Britain. Etiquette if needed for random spelling/grammar mistakes.)

 

Greetings my fellow Kindred of the Camarilla,

 

I thought that the local Kindred in this area might be curious to hear the latest gossip and read the magnificant speech that Prince Quentin King III gave during our most recent gathering during Court the night of April 28th. Our gathering was hosted by yours truly at my art gallery called 'The Emperor's Wardrobe'.   I believe you all had a gathering that night as well, though a gathering of a different nature from what I have heard.

 

We hosted not only our own brilliant and sophiscated Kindred residents of New Britain but also a few refugees from Hartford that Quentin King III saved from that horrible red fog sent by the Daeva, who are mentioned below in His Grace's wonderous speech.  Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

 

-Harpy Parker

 

(OOC: The following speech is transcribed meticulously word for word from a speech Quentin King III gave at Court on 4/28/17.  It's got Expression 5 with a spec in Speeches and Etiquette as needed for random spelling/grammar mistakes.

 

If you spend a Politics, you know Quentin's status for this speech was 7 (Personal) + 4 (Positional) + 2 (Honorary) + 6 (Loaned from his 'Primogen Council', aka The Six Knights) to equal 19 Status.  Though he does end up spending 6 Temp Status to give out Status.  It looks like he spends 7 Temp but I remembered OOC afterwards that the first one he gives in this speech doesn't actually cost a Temp to give. Anywho, contact Dark Colony staff with questions/declarations/attempts to contact NPCs/etc at darkcolony@googlegroups.com.  Thank you!)

 

"I'd like to begin Court by thanking Harpy Parker for hosting us here in her lovely gallery this evening.

 

I've been away from the artist community for too long and she has helped me to re-ingratiate myself back into it.  Fortunately, after seeing the newest trends circulating the galas, I can safely say that I did not miss much.

 

No, no, I jest of course, I jest.  Clan Toreador has not failed to live up to my expectations this evening with the artwork displayed and I am grateful that we can celebrate the culture and history of the Ivory Tower tonight of all nights.  Because yes, tonight is a special event. 

 

Tonight is the night that the Daeva have decided to wage war upon Prince Biltmore--oh, excuse me, I meant Prince Gold and the poor citizens of Hartford that he enthralls to his side with all the subtlety and grace of a bank robber in Stockholm.  As we revel in our feast and cultural enrichment like true Kindred of the Camarilla, he sits huddled in a church demanding his fellow Kindred to pray with him not unlike the vile Kindred of the Rebellion.  A shameful act of cowardice that should be noted by all present here this evening.

 

But not half as shameful as abandoning these Kindred here to the fate of the Daeva plague.  All of whom are good Kindred of the Camarilla, left to fend for themselves while Prince Gold erected the barricades around himself and his inner circle of scurrying sycophants. But I, Quentin King, third of my name, could not sit idly by and allow Prince Gold's cruel apathy towards his own citizens see these fine Kindred perish.  My Primogen Council convened on the matter and through divine providence they were each given a vision of one of the Kindred who would meet their Final Death without our direct intervention.  Thus we managed to save that many Kindred of the Ivory Tower this night and as Prince of this Domain I do hereby grant them permanent Hospitality here and even Residency should they wish it. These once-neglected refugees are known in the Camarilla as Vincent Ivey of Clan MalkavianKingston Lennox of Clan VentrueMorgan Harper of Clan BrujahStyx of Clan NosferatuBucket of Clan Nosferatu, and Nick Clemente of Clan Malkavian.

 

But my magnanimity does not end there.  It has come to my attention that one of these Kindred, Nick Clemente, has been repeatedly denied his Acknowledgement to be properly welcomed into the Camarilla.  My Primogen Council tell me of his many deeds to aid the Ivory Tower despite his fledgling youth.  Therefore, as an Exalted Prince of the Camarilla I do hereby see Nick Clemente as Acknowledged within the Camarilla.  And for their resilience in surviving the neglect and failures of Prince Gold and their willingness to trust in me as their righteous savior, as I am a Distinguished, Famous, Well-Known, Influential, Honorable, and Just Prince of the Camarilla I do hereby see Vincent Ivey, Kingston Lennox, Morgan Harper, Styx, Bucket, and Nick Clemente as Chivalrous.

 

Yes, yes, I know what you are thinking.  What am I to receive in return?  Life Boons would no doubt be fitting, you say.  But forcing Life Boons out of the unwilling is the kind of thuggish brutality that has been made famous by the Nazi puppet of William Biltmore. I would not dare lower myself into the bloodied depths occupied by my cowering neighbor. Or should I say 'Neigh-Boor'! For boorish it would be. 

 

Instead, I shall accept a Major Boon from each of them, which can be considered fully paid if and when any of these Kindred decide to publicly denounce their fealty to Prince Gold and instead swear it to me.  Call me old-fashioned I suppose.  But that payment option shall be left completely optional, of course. For I come from a more noble era than Prince Gold, who idolizes the power and strength he witnessed during the rise of Fascism.  Instead, I extol the virtues of true loyalty that can only be inspired by true leadership, and so I would not force such an offering from my honored guests.

 

Now then, I believe that is all that I wished to decree during this Court.  All other matters can be brought to me privately.  Please enjoy the festivities this evening and as you do, please try to keep in mind how fortunate we all are that this Domain has such strong and regal leadership that knows how to stave off petty Daeva threats such as the one Hartford must endure tonight.  Court is adjourned."

Reminder: Collecting Memories

by Kevin O'Connor

April 20th, 2017

Quick OOC reminder to those who were interested:

 

The Mnemosyne NPC who called himself "Obitus" offered to take painful, traumatic, or otherwise unpleasent memories away from PCs in exchange for more useful memories such as military training, learning languages, and perhaps some other secret stuff as well!

 

If you wanted to do this, please contact staff at darkcolony@googlegroups.com with a description of the memories you are giving away with as much detail as you can.  It must be at least one month long though.  The more amount of time you give, the more you can receive in return.  Please have these in ASAP, but no later than next Wednesday, April 26th.

 

Just so you know, this is not a trap to screw your character over.  The memories you give away are going to be part of the "backstory" of a new PC coming into play soon.  The memories you receive are from his actual backstory.  So think of this as a donation of sorts, and also a way to have a very unique character tie to another PC and possibly to some pretty big Malkavian metaplot stuff I have planned for the future.

 

Thank you!
