SchreckNET

So I know this is not the best place to ask but given everything I'm not sure where else to take this or who to ask directly right now...

Has anyone noticed anything [...] odd going on with the Anarchs lately? I mean, other than the fact that the Camarilla just lost all its leaders and they're not currently trying to take over. Yet anyway.

[HOUNDS]

The hunters took the whole evil/cleansing thing a bit far. The eyelids that were sewn shut on the ghoul had the eyes removed as well. The tongue was cut out. The drums of the ears busted.

See no evil. Speak no evil. Hear no evil.

In short, it meant I could not get anything off the body that would help us figure out where the ghoul has been or what they wanted with him other than the end result that was left for us to find.

[MICAH]

I wasn't able to get anything useful off the ghoul.

That is two ghouls now but other than the bodies there have been no other clear signs of St. Leopold's to be found back in the city. It makes me reluctant to put it out there just yet publically but it's a decision better left up to the council to decide.

[HOUNDS]

I know that we've been able to find little ourselves from the remains of the Blue Velvet to suggest what, or rather who, is responsible for the fire. However, I think we can all agree to the fact of kine authorities after a lengthy investigation ruling it out as just a gas leak is bullshit.

Has anyone been able to come up with anything else?

And any word on our missing ghoul? This one seems to be taking longer to turn up.

[ARIEL]

There's a package with a couple of things in it on the kitchen counter.

Lucian Carlyle, Prince of New York City, with the full support of the Primogen Council, declares a Blood Hunt on Dorian Valatieri of the Chicago court for the murder of Alex Kain, former Ventrue Primogen, and crimes against the Kindred of New York City. Should he make it out of the city within the next few hours, then he is hereby permanently exiled from the city on the punishment of final death should he ever step back into it.

Let the hunt begin.

[HOUNDS]

We have a report of another missing ghoul. Considering how the last one was found we should likely look into this one. Before this one ends up chopped into little bits as well. Skip the cleanup and all that.

[MAB]

Mab, my dear, I know you are rather fond of your ghoul so I figured that I'd give you a heads up to keep an eye on him.

[Amadeus & Hounds]

Ding-dong, Avon calling. I've got a pretty pink Cadillac to earn. Or to be given. Amadeus, give me a car for this. Hahahahahahahaha.

I would like to invite you all to the future funeral of one Luke Schwartz. Mister Schwartz will be shitting himself to death relatively soon if you do a good enough job. Caitiff. Ten years out of Seattle, supposedly a good little Cam with serious Anarch leanings until a certain predecessor put his girlfriend six-feet under. Oopsie doodle. Maybe he should've ghouled her.

How he's gotten to "smiler the defiler" is anyone's guess. Not mine because I don't care but anyone else's.

I would like to remind everyone that yes, some ghouls are allowed access to SchreckNET by their masters and that should be taken into account when posting or mentioning certain topics on here. So that I don't end up with even more paperwork on my desk when one decides to get overly sensitive.

[HOUNDS]

It's probably nothing but Annette Vanchure filed a missing ghoul report.

[Public]

Who wants to help me out tomorrow? I've got a couch that needs hauling up a Sisyphian staircase in St Marks Place, and I know what you're thinking... I can do that shit myself. Well, of course I could, but that might not seem normal to my insufferably human, agonizingly nosy neighbors who are currently unemployed. My personal ongoings have basically become their Netflix. Besides, what's the use of you having super-strength if I can't watch you use it? P.S. I may or may not pay you.

[Garnet]
I have a collection of priceless artsy knives some idiot boy gave me at work, if you want to come over and throw them off the roof later.

[Ariel]

Remember when I said I had enough people calling me Daddy?

[The Confluence]

I need a favor. A personal favor. How much is it going to cost me?

[Rhys]

Padawan, just what are you up to in that Haven? Also, I'm taking you out to feed. No arguements.

The Witch Hunters who decided to pay our city a little visit have been dealt with. However, in the following nights, we would like to urge all Kindred to be cautious when out in the city. Stay in Kindred safe places and if possible don't use side doors to exit clubs and end up in dark alleyways alone, especially younger Kindred. Be careful who you pick up to eat and so on, etc, etc, etc.

If you suspect someone of not being what they seem or see anything suspicious, do not hesitate to let us know.

[Amadeus/Hounds]

Ghoul's dead. Found his laptop and phone. The Confluence says he'll be able to recover the data... for a price... so now I'm down a pair of sunglasses and I'm really unhappy about that. Those were Fendi.

[Sheriff/Hounds]

Smiler wasn't there. Didn't recognize any of the smells. Same shit, different day.

What fresh new hell is this in my life.

[SUNNI D]

Can we get this nonsense taken down? And track down who it is?

[HOUNDS]

Seems we have an admirer. Considering all that Kjell and I found when tracking down the hacker who took down the NET was a piece of paper with a smiley face on it, I would say they are one and the same. I won't be surprised if they're the one behind the emails as well. I've already asked Sunni to start working on this.

In the meantime, we're going to move forward with pressing the Primogens with questioning. I've made each of you a dissolution stake as a safety precaution. Hopefully, it won't come down to using them considering the mess it would cause but better safe than sorry. The only ones we should have to worry about are Sethius and Maya but at this point, I wouldn't count the others out for being in on this. Or their own schemes.

[RHYS]

I have some matters to attend to so I won't be making it by tonight as planned.

[HOUNDS]

Well things are certainly taking interesting turns. I'm not sure how much longer we're going to be able to keep this under wraps at this rate. Not if being wired in is going to continue to bite us in the ass.

It may be time to start approaching some of the Primogens and asking questions. I've got an excuse to approach Sethius without it being in an official Sheriff capacity but rather clan matters so that will give me an in there. And we should probably speak with Maya if for no other reason then to see where she is as far as mental stability goes right now.

Dear ole Lucy gave me his version of what happened during the Primogen meeting and it still doesn't seem like motive enough to kill Alex. Or to go to the lengths that they had to in order to achieve it. We now know that it is possible for a Tremere to cause another Kindred to be awake during the day but it still doesn't explain Maya's state of being or why it disturbed the other Malkaivans... Though Leo, I have a theory I'd like to discuss with you on that.

The email Felix received has been forwarded to Sunni to decrypt. Hopefully, it gives us more than trying to track down the hacker did. And hope that Ariel got Felix to take his post down in time before anyone saw it.

[......]

First the downtime, then the spam, now these [...] misfired emails.

I'm starting to think ravens really might be the better option.

[...]

haha.

[Ariel]

It's not my fault this time, I swear.

Was that 'typical bullshit' related to Mr. Kain? Is he really d

I think I'm going to be sick.


[OOC NOTE: After Ariel told him to delete the first part of this post, Felix did so. But feel free to assume that your character saw it before it went if you like~]

In light of recent gossip, allow me to make something clear; I don't care.

Ask your questions, if you like. It's a one-time deal.

( A definitely important message for Ariel from Felix, who doesn't know that there was a murder today yet. Whoops. )

Can you help?

Please?

I'll owe you.

Does anyone here specialize in translations?

At what point does one consider themselves 'too old for this shit' because I'm beginning to wonder. Obviously what we're missing right now is a good old fashion blood orgy. Someone really should get on the planning of one of those.

[FILTERED TO HOUNDS]

I had to discuss some things with Sethius first, but it would seem that Henry Stokes of clan Tremere is in fact missing. I'll need you to keep an eye out for anything you might overhear or be able to learn about it.
