Alfric of Clerkenwell
History[edit]
Little is known about Alfric's history beyond what he has told other, and almost all of that is assumed to be a lie. His name is Anglo-Saxon in origin and it is said that he has been in London for as long as anyone can remember. He has never been as social adept as many of his counterparts, but he is well known for his razor-sharp political abilities and forward thinking. Before anyone else has even recognised a potential for advancement or gain, Alfric has already manoeuvred his allies and pawns into a position to dominate the area in question. He is a master of "hands-off control", and though he isn't directly involved in every project that he organises, he knows that he can call in a myriad of favours whenever he wants and his projects will come to fruition.
Appearance[edit]
His shaggy brown hair is always dirty and it constantly masks most of his face, with only his piercing green eyes manage to peer through his tangled hair. Alfric is a man of average height and has the build of a farmhand or a labourer and when his weathered arms are bared they show well used muscles. He rarely wears clothes that are fashionable and tends towards a more rural feel to his clothing, only when pressed to wear something respectable at the finest Kindred functions does he wear something presentable.
Character information[edit]
Alfric is an inquisitive Kindred who spends most of his time acquiring as much information as possible about everything around him. It is unknown to almost everyone exactly which clan Alfric is. He always dismisses the subject and when pressed to answer he claims that he is "one of the Kindred's finest" and moves the conversation on. There are many clans that claim him as one of their own, but it is well known rumour that Mithras himself “sees right through him” a fact that causes Alfric no end of discomfort.
The Groups Mentor[edit]
As is characteristic of Alfric he moves in mysterious ways and the each of the coterie received a message from him with an enticing offer. An offer of untold riches and a city to control for themselves, all that was required was to travel. Alfric said that he set up as much as he can to make the transition easier, and has given names of people that will help the coterie settle in. After several meetings with each of the coterie to individually work out the details of their respective assets that were leaving behind and questions about their plans and ambitions for Bombay, Alfric assembled the group in Portsmouth and put them on the “Bounties Might” a ship heading for the Far East with a captain aware of his passengers preferences.
