Points of Entry
The streets of New Orleans bustles with life of all kinds.
It takes the keen senses of a creature not chained to mortality to be aware of the low hum of dread which is consistently visiting the ears of every patron of the city. Every kindred in the city knows that something BIG is going to be occurring at the upper echelons of Kindred Society which will trickle down and cover the streets with the blood of elders.
Every neonate that occupies this large metropolis has a great battle to wage every night. Depending on your personal leanings you may be trying to stay under the radar of the cities Royal members, or perhaps are trying desperately to get their attention. You may generate targeted resentment solely based on your lineage or affiliations or be completely ignored as nothing more then useless fodder.
In any case, a neonates existence is never a graceful experience. And there will be more then enough opportunities to have whatever beliefs you hold at your foundation to be questioned or even outright dissolved. Be cautious with your choices because you never know where they can lead you.

Themes and Plots
One of the Brood: You've chosen to make New Orleans your home solely for the sake of climbing the political and social ladder of the city. Given both your lineage and affiliations (Charactors should be either Daeva or Ventrue and have affiliations with either the First or Second Estates), New Orleans is a perfect fit. You've also heard faint whispers that there might be a good chance that a power play is going to be made in the city from on high and are compelled to capitalize.
Caught in the Cause: You lived in New Orleans your whole mortal life and was even transformed into the creature you are tonight in these very streets. Your sire was not a graceful beast nor a kind one. Through years of abuse and mistreatment (murdering your whole family and locking you up and depraving you of vitae) you finally cracked and with a swift move was able to conquer your maker and bring him to final death. You must now defend against having your secret revealed whilst subtly building a place for you amongst those who align with the Carthians.
An Acolyte: Sired into the care of one of Baron Cimitiere's underlings you have entered a world of blood magic and sorcery, the like's of which you could never have imagined. And it thrills you. Your goals in life are merely to learn as much as you can concerning the Vouduontist magic that is taught to you from your elders and perhaps even join (or create) a coterie of which can enhance your learning and influence in the city. However through your affiliations you gain the aggressive attention of many within the city who oppose Cimitiere and his dealings. Can you find safety amidst such obvious animosity?
Lone Wolf: Your a nomadic vampire and your in New Orleans for one reason; Blood. You heard of this city based solely on the appeal of its night life, especially during Mardi Gras. You don't care about domains, feeding rights, or any of the political mumbo-jumbo you've only heard whispers of. Due to your absentee sire, none of that shit was ever taught to you. And you feel its all for the best, because honestly, who gives a shit. Such an attitude might get you caught in the Sheriffs reticules or perhaps draw the attention of a far more potent beast whom does not appreciate 'shitters' in their domain.
Dragon Eye: You only recently arrived in New Orleans, under the direction to join with another Dragon there by the name of Carter Landry who has just recently been appointed Koagion and who will be directing you further as to what your responsibilities will be while in the city. Perhaps your not all pleased with this move or perhaps you see it as the perfect opportunity to gain greater knowledge of the coils from the magically rich soil and enhance your own portfolio so that you may one day become a respected member of your covenant.
Fighting your Sin: You were brought into the Danse Macabre for your years of service of the Lancea Sanctum. A devout priest and father of 6, you thoroughly enjoyed your time as a ghouled retainer for the covenant both for the financial reasons as well as the longevity of mortal years. Now things have changed. You've been embraced by Senschel of New Orleans and are much more committed to the Sanctified then ever before. Can you withstand the weight of your new existence as it slowly pulls at the loose strings of both your humanity and your faith?
The Last Mistake: Your new to being a vampire. New enough that anything you do sticks like ripe shit to your sire so its best to tread carefully. And you have, until tonight. You lost your cool when a fellow, unknown kindred happens to show up at the same bar you hunt at and spooks you into a frenzy. Its left 10 dead and a big masquerade breach in your sire's lap and the Prince has called for both your sire's and your head on a stake. Can you find safe passage out of the city without being caught by one of the many Kindred now out for blood? What will it cost you?
What the Fuck?: So one moment your talking up this fine piece of ass, the next moment some monstrosity of a man walks in and makes short work of you. You wake up in your bed the next night with a serious thirst and a letter at the foot of your bed that reads: "Welcome to the world of a Vampire. You have 3 nights". What do you do with this? How do you make sense of it all? What happens after the 3rd night?
