Kroisos Social Circle as it looks now.

Helena
As you are keen to make your Toreador ruse be as believable as possible, you had to meet this ancient as quickly as possible. You built your reputation first and mingled with the lesser toreador until the Adirim summoned you to her mansion. That night was one of those where you worked with the utmost care. While you had not the greatest knowledge of all the arts, it seemed that she was still most receptive to compliments and the stroking of her pride. She is very proud of her appearance that was very obvious. That tactic may not work with each encounter, might even bore her eventually if that is all that you are good for. You got her acceptance, for now, and a few invitations to her formal gatherings but nothing very close and personal. However, you succeeded in what you initially set out to do.

To gain her favour and lasting interest would be another task. One you would need to carefully think through because you believe you had caught a glimpse of how she treats her favourite leashed toys. Gods save you if you accidentally become very interesting to her.

Crysanthe
You treat each other politely. The former Patron of Arts is difficult to read. At least she has not made it know if find you very offensive.

Gideon
You see the beginnings of a friendship or perhaps you are sort of friends already. Primarily a quiet and thoughtful man, he takes great care and focus on his art. Often times when you visit him he is always working on a new piece— tends to keep working even if you sit down and talk. Yet he still listens with a keen and sharp ear. He doesn’t present himself like it but he knows a thing or two that may be worth hearing. It takes some prodding for him to talk about it, politics is not his favourite. It’s quite obvious with him when someone bores him with the subject.

He is very famous you know, his art is seen in nearly every temple and there are mortals that wish to become his apprentice. He has a clear pull in that way. You have seen his work, it brings awe and speaks to the soul. Maybe if you get your own big temple and you become much closer with Gideon, you might get a discount.

Eliana
She, like you, is also kind of a new face. Which was a good thread to bond over. Though the circumstances of her coming are much different than your own, you heard. There is this fearfulness about her that comes and goes some nights, sometimes she succeeds in hiding it, sometimes she fails. Perhaps if you grow even closer she would open up more towards you; while some of her emotions are easily displayed she knows how to keep her mouth shut.

Of all the Toreador women in this city, she is the most approachable. Less ego and more kindness, though perhaps that has something to do with her age. She means no harm, even if there are some that think she does just because she is a Roman.

Anastasios
One of those ‘Old Brujah’ you heard about. They seem to suffer from a ‘curious affliction’, as the other Brujah would call it. You only know that they are much colder and detached in attitude than the average Brujah. Anastasios is a sort of colleague in medicine and you have managed to win something of an amicable relationship. Sometimes you come to him for a medical opinion, sometimes he comes you. Sometimes you two compete for a case. He doesn’t seem to take it badly if you managed to steal one away, at least doesn’t show he does. What he had shown is his preference for Greek Carthaginians. He would say things to you he would never to someone of non-Greek blood and mind. You have expertly played into that bias.

Because you get along very fine with him, sometimes you get the sense that Anastasios is more than he makes himself modestly appear. Or maybe that’s the Cainite mind not trusting someone that pretty straight forward.

Baalhanno
Baalhanno is the one you sometimes have to report to. His title is that of Caretaker of Mortals, so he oversees much of the healing side of Carthage. He also makes sure that mortals are treated right by their Cainite neighbours.

As a recent arrival, it was he who educated you on what is and is not allowed in regards to anything related to mortals, particularly feeding. He greatly appreciates your desire to heal and your skills in it. He trusts those skills enough that he would sometimes send cases your way, which greatly helped you build up a reputation. He views you positively and does not mind to give advice if you would come to seek it. Two times he had even granted you the privilege to work in the Green Sick House for a night. It is where you could see him work and learn. Like many of the Adhirim, he is a master and authority of his craft.

It is quite fortunate that he sees you so positively. He is after all the direct servant of the Second High Judge. Perhaps if you grow closer to hi, he might put you in contact with her if you would ever greatly need it.

Levana bat Nadav
You had only met Moloch personally once. He took a mostly silent look at you that day. You must have passed some sort of test, as he sent this woman your way. Levana is his right hand. You were allowed to stay in the city. So long your thoughts are in line with the religion Moloch leads, you may proselytise. But would you ever stand in his way and the good work of this Nest…. The warning was clear.

You are still in the process of proving your loyalty and good intent. Sometimes Levana visits and looks at the sick mortals in your care. Sometimes she asks which one still has a family. Sometimes she tells you to direct the family to her for good burial or material support for their loss. Sometimes she tells you to outright fail a treatment, so the patient dies. Thankfully this request has only happened twice. Those bodies are removed with extreme quiet efficiency. Your failure to treat them never looks bad on your reputation.

Regardless, even if you had wanted to you never found yourself able to deny her questions or requests.


Tunaruz roll result: You have seen her once at general court. Tunaruz is a young brujah from nomadic berber stock. Though she herself has moved away from the sands to join civilization. You know that she protects mortals from abuse and mistreatment.
