[Sodium_noir] Saturday Night - Countdown to the hunt.

Tellos Chinatown 10:50 PM
Dhampir

As he waited silently the sun was now long gone and he kept his eyes on the 
shadows of Chinatown. Seemed strange that it'd taken so long to see any of 
them, maybe he was just not seeking them out hard enough. He tried to think 
where he might catch these creatures elsewhere if they staied away from here 
tonight. Still he kept his eyes peeled and waiting for one of them. This was 
his best talant, he could see them even when their powers hid them in shadow 
as if they were in plain sight. They could not vanish from his eyes they 
could not hide from his gaze. Now if only his powes could grow in  strength 
as such he'd have these creatures dropping like flys.


Saddly he'd learned he had a limit to his powers that he could gain. Sure he 
could learn anything they could he imagined but only at the most basic 
level. Still this put him far above mortals. Bullets didint always harm him, 
even before he learned to toughen his body with one of his powers he could 
take stab wounds and seem unaffected in any major way. He was tougher than 
any meremortal of normal standing and he could move much faster. Then the 
fact he had strength nobody who wasint altered by vampires or wasint a 
vampire or some other supernatural could touch without great work. Then he 
noted the aging, he was slowly aging, he remembers always being younger 
looking than he was. Even now he looked 15 or 16 maybe 17 tops when he was 
18 in  fact. Sure may not seem like alot but the process was slowing his 
aging down further, he wondered if it'd just slow to a point or stop 
entirly. He knew one thing they had that he did not. Fangs, yes fangs those 
dark things that came to characterize vampires. He'd heard rumors of some 
vampires without fangs but never seen a suck head who didint fladh a pair at 
him if they could. He wasint sure if they all knew off the bat what he was 
or if they were just dumbfounded, he'd seen equal ammounts seem either or. 
Some would be unable to figure him out the others just plain didint care or 
knew maybe and wanted him dead for it.


He also had peiced togather that their was more than one organizing body of 
vampires and they didint like eachother, nor did they seem to like those 
within their own organizations. He knew they fought with eachother but their 
seemed to be organizations within even their "Clans" and this was even more 
puzzling. Well he didint have enough awnsers to fill in half the blanks that 
were in the vampire equation, their infighting ranged from eccanomic and 
political chess games to barroom or street style brawls.

He didint know all the Clans but those he did he made sure to get all he 
could on. First off were his big enamies the Tremere, these guys had little 
obvious infighting and seem to be heading towards one over all goal. He knew 
they could weild powers that were amazing and dangerous. The Brujah of who 
seemed the most common seemed mostly like Violant street thugs or baddass 
mob bosses, they seemed the least organized and most easily pissed off. They 
seemed very fast and strong and in some cases charsimatic, but usualy just 
annoying. Then he knew abit about some group calling themselves "Assimites" 
he didint have much on these vampires save they had dark skin and seemed to 
be assasins of the highiest caliber. He'd battled one in south Florida, he 
barily survived and beat her by tricking her into the sun. Their powers in 
some cases could devistate men and vampires alike it seemed and this one she 
seemed to know exactly what he was. She also seemed to hate him in a way 
he'd seen only in human racists. The last group he knew called themselves 
the Ventrue and seem like corporate/political airistocratic assholes. The 
sticks up their ass had sticks up their asses.
All other clans were still a mystery really with scant information. Sighing 
as he watched from the buildings roof he waited counting down till he would 
move to another zone.
