New Orleans Long Night

        Before the storm The city of New Orleans was a kindreds heaven with its many twisted streets filled with all flavors of easy prey. It's government both before and after the storm is corrupt and its laws are a twisted mess of opportunity. Now everything that made new Orleans a perfect home to all kindred is even more true. Hurricane Katrina flooded over 80 percent of the city. Old influences were lost and new opportunities have flowered as huge amounts of federal dollars flood into the corrupt hands of the cities mortal leaders and kindred wily enough to try and take advantage of this wealth. The struggle to control New Orleans is even more fierce, as the stakes have risen.

    Immediately after the storm most of the Camarialla members and all of its court abandoned the city. The Anarchs were all that remained of the kindred in the flooded and broken city. Most did not stay out of choice, but they had no where to go. One Kindred, who had been seneschal, the Brujah Nick, stood up and declared the crescent city free. She Organized a council to administrate the city and any disputes its kindred will have. The council had for a time three seats. One to represent Each major sect, the Camarialla, the Sabbat, and the Independents.

    From the start the council was flawed, both the Camarialla and the Sabbat were only interested in taking the city for their own. Under Prince Alejandro Rosas Sanchez the Camarialla planed to garner boons to in-debt the Anarchs, while at the same time trying to pit the Anarchs and the Sabbat against each other. The Sabbat were no better, through treachery A Ductus named Amanda, managed to be named to the Anarchs seat, the Sabbat thus had 2 seats on the council. Under all these lies it was not long until the council collapsed.

    A very unusual and young  prince, Alejandro Rosas Sanchez now leads the Camarialla and is working to solidify the Camarialla's hold on the city. He faces a strong Sabbat threat, but is now enjoying the aid of the Prince of Houston, Vincent VanDraken in restoring proper Camarialla control. This aid of course comes at a cost.

    The Anarch problem has largely been solved by Amanda who has shoveled nearly all of the Anarch ranks. Nick now "leads" only a hand full of Anarchs, though often Independents, and Sabbat alike dawn an Anarch mask to hide there real loyalties. 

    The Sabbat are now lead both by Amanda and an elder Harbinger of Skulls named Cassius Delamorte who is leading a full Sabbat war party. The main Sabbat weakness is the devision in leadership between the highly ambitious Amanda, and the War Bishop, Cassius.

    Independents of all types have moved in to pick the fallen corps of the Big Easy. Followers of set have established an open temple. Smedie, Ravnos, and Giovanni all are taking advantage of the chaos and despair. Few if any independent Kindred show interest in restoring the city to its gritty former storm glory.
