[[File:Sebastien.png]]

Clan: Mekhet

Covenant: Unaligned (formerly Invictus)

Mask: Conformist

Dirge: Spy

Beats: [x] [x] [x] [] []

Experience Points: 3 (3 spent)

Background: Sébastien was born in 1928 as the youngest son to a fairly well-off merchant family of Cajun ancestry. Even though he had 4 siblings, 3 of which were girls, his parents were able to ensure that he received a good education. Sébastien's father couldn't have been more proud when he chose a career in civil service while his older brother would inherit the family business. Joining the FBI in 1951, he quickly rose through its ranks through his sharp wits and diligence. When he had completed his training, he was assigned to infiltrate the teaching staff at Tulane University and investigate rumours of anti-American activity.

However, the paranoid climate of the Cold War made the people in charge suspicious of more than just Communists. The so-called lavender scare[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavender_scare] made men such as Sébastien, who felt attracted to their own sex rather than the opposite one, feel increasingly unwelcome in many branches of the United States' civil service. Sébastien never found out who informed on him, but he suspects to this day that his Sire had something to do with it.

His career in ruins and disowned by his family, he accepted the older vampire's offer: slowly fade from the mortal world's awareness and gain access to another, wider world of darkness and secrets. Sébastien served his maker as investigator and spymaster for over a decade, as was custom within the Invictus, slowly gathering influence for himself. When he was finally released, he was already deeply entrenched in the Kindreds' intrigues. At that time, the only thing still connecting him to his mortal life was his brother, who had stuck with him even as his shameful secret identity as a lover of men was exposed.

Eventually though, someone must have decided that he had his fingers in too many pies. His sources slowly dried up, his agents burned, he frantically tried to salvage what he could, but it was too little, too late...

When he had completed his training, he was assigned to infiltrate the teaching staff at Tulane University and investigate rumours of anti-American activity.

However, the paranoid climate of the Cold War made the people in charge suspicious of more than just Communists. The so-called lavender scare[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavender_scare] made men such as Sébastien, who felt attracted to their own sex rather than the opposite one, feel increasingly unwelcome in many branches of the United States' civil service. Sébastien never found out who informed on him, but he suspects to this day that his Sire had something to do with it.

His career in ruins and disowned by his family, he accepted the older vampire's offer: slowly fade from the mortal world's awareness and gain access to another, wider world of darkness and secrets. Sébastien served his maker as investigator and spymaster for over a decade, as was custom within the Invictus, slowly gathering influence for himself. When he was finally released, he was already deeply entrenched in the Kindreds' intrigues. At that time, the only thing still connecting him to his mortal life was his brother, who had stuck with him even as his shameful secret identity as a lover of men was exposed.

Eventually though, someone must have decided that he had his fingers in too many pies. His sources slowly dried up, his agents burned, he frantically tried to salvage what he could, but it was too little, too late...

Background: Sébastien was born in 1928 as the youngest son to a fairly well-off merchant family of Cajun ancestry. Even though he had 4 siblings, 3 of which were girls, his parents were able to ensure that he received a good education. Sébastien's father couldn't have been more proud when he chose a career in civil service while his older brother would inherit the family business. Joining the FBI in 1951, he quickly rose through its ranks through his sharp wits and diligence. When he had completed his training, he was assigned to infiltrate the teaching staff at Tulane University and investigate rumours of anti-American activity.

However, the paranoid climate of the Cold War made the people in charge suspicious of more than just Communists.

=Valentine Fletcher=

Valentine Fletcher was born in 1911 as the youngest son to a family who had already too many mouths to feed in one of the poorer parts of London, England. Being nimble and clever and lacking access to formal education, it was not long before he began what he thought would become a rather successful career as a cat burglar. Fate, however, had other plans for him in store. He got a tip-off that a lady who was living on her own and was rumored to dabble in the occult would be an easy target for someone who knew what he was doing. This information was slightly inaccurate, however: not only was the lady not alone, she was also one of the Kindred. Impressed by how far the mortal thief had been able to come, she offered him a choice: be killed on the spot or accept the blood bond and work for her instead. Valentine chose the latter, and even though he was her subordinate, their arrangement proved mututally beneficial as the thief enjoyed enhanced physical abilities as well as certain other benefits the existence as a ghoul provided.

Valentine had only been a ghoul for a couple of years when once again Europe stood at the brink of war. At first, his mistress paid little attention to what she thought of as "silly mortal squabbles", but when it became apparent that the German madman would stop at nothing to bring his plans to fruitition and England would soon be drawn into the conflict as well, she finally decided to act. It was mostly Valentine, however, who organized not only the shipping of her most precious belongings but also the ship passage for the lady (securely stowed in a heavy wooden box) and himself. Everything went better than expected, and when both of them had finally settled in her new household in Cambridge, Massachusetts she rewarded him for his faithfulness by granting him the Embrace.

In the years that led up to Valentine being recruited by the OSS, after his training and induction into the Ordo Dracul, he again acted mostly on his own, only forming temporary alliances in order to succesfully complete a heist. His loot consisted of items of an occult nature more often than not, either as requested by his sire or, as time went by, more and more owed to a growing curiosity for the occult in himself. Eventually the relationship to his sire cooled down a little since she either could not or would not teach him anymore. Looking for a new goal, recuitment by the OSS served him just fine, for the Nazis are rumored to have acquired not only a few interesting artifacts themselves... artifacts that are only waiting to be "repossessed".
