W
hen Victor’s promising NBA career was
cut short by an unfortunate accident, he

Temple of Boom, a recording business

this success that attracted his sire, and tonight the rising
media mogul finds himself not only undead but trying to
walk a dangerous tightrope between uneasy alliances and
conflicting loyalties. Victor's enterprises include several
popular nightclubs and an expanding recording business

Chocolate Drop, and also uses it to mask his unlife –
hiding in plain sight, as he likes to call it. Recently he has
taken the title of Baron of the Valley, claiming domain

ashion model Nelli Griffith had it all – looks,
influence, a promising career – until she vanished
under mysterious circumstances in San Francisco.
Tonight Nelli is a player in the hidden political
world of the Anarch baronies that vie for turf and power
across LA, forging a strong alliance with Isaac Abrams, the
Baron of Hollywood.
Nelli fled to LA to escape her sire, the infamously callous
Chaz Price. There she founded Thorn, the avant garde
fashion house, and the Griffith College School of Fashion,
which she supports and protects from the shadows. Nelli
hobnobs regularly with the rich and famous, and uses
her fame and influence to deflect suspicion. When Chaz
recently attempted to blackmail Nelli into cooperating
with the Camarilla, the Valley Coterie sent him to the Final
