Transylvania: Ghoul
When the sun comes up and it's time for all Caine's get to be safely abed, the vampyrs have only one thing to trust: their Ghouls.
Felipe Dominico, Lackey Courtier (Alfonso)
The last son of a noble household, Felipe's options were sorely limited -- until he was given the opportunity of an un-lifetime. He became Alfonso's groom and living mirror, his eyes and ears by day, and his social scout whenever he traveled. He has always made sure his regnant looks his best and is as informed as possible. Gossip and rumor seem to flow through Felipe as naturally as the Danube cuts through the Carpathians. His hero-worship of Alfsonso is subtle, and he seems to regard his Cainite lord as an admired elder brother.
Nikolai Falcon y Montague, Bodyguard (Alfonso)
When Rafael received the Embrace, he did not accept it lightly. He declined at first, humbly though staunchly, proclaiming he would not leave Alfonso unprotected.
Sasha, Chantry Guardian (Deacon)
A blacksmith's son, he was about to become a journeyman and shoulder more of the responsibility of the forge from his father when Deacon happened into his small village. In 1198, hile the coterie built the fortress at Tihuta Pass, Sasha became Deacon's loyal retainer and learned the arts of war from Rafael, refining his impressive strength with a warrior's skill and speed. In the 14th century, he was assigned to Deacon's new chantry, as the captain of the guard.
Sherazhina, Tremere Apprentice (Deacon)
Rescued by the coterie from a slave monger in Buda-Pest in 1198, she has been with Deacon ever since. The young Romanian, an ex-partisan of the Tzimisce revenant family Basarab, began her Thaumaturgical preparations within the decade. Deacon also managed to help assure good relations with at lease one other member of the Siebenburgen: Count Radu of Bistria seemed to appreciate the care and consideration the Usurper had shown a member of one of his Clan's people, and relations with him were peaceful ever after.
Viktor, Loyal Retainer (Alfonso)
Found in service to a Ventrue ex-Crusader, Alfonso recognized the usefulness of Viktor's strength and after sealing the Blood Bond in 1189, discovered that within the giant lay an equally large heart. Excellent skills with children and animals of all kinds.
