*Graham Summers: Son of Nancy Summers. Through Karl's research, it has been found that Graham has been attending late night Preaching sessions held by the Lancea Sanctum, although why he attends or why the sermons are being given has yet to be determined.

*Katie Wu: Anna's 18 year old cousin who is attending college at UCB. On the outside she appears to be the perfect student, but like most kids her age, she enjoys partying and late nights. She is studying pharmacy and is a typical Californian teenager. Despite her optimism, she is challenged by her waxing-waning relationship with Anna, and her mother's diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma.

*Henry Wu: Anna's 47 years old uncle, a senior engineer at an AI technology firm in Silicon Valley. Henry is a consummate family man, he works hard to provide the best life for his wife and child. He is gutted at the return of cancer in his wife, but he needs to maintain his job so insurance will cover treatment. This is creating a strain with his daughter.

*Fredrick Rugg: Karl’s grandson and only known living relative. Fredrick is a sociology professor at UCLA, and to Karl’s chargrine a homosexual. He is tall with erect posture and brown hair that is starting to go grey. He is now living with the coterie and Anna has begun roping him into daytime tasks to help set up the blood drive and storage at the psychiatric hospital.

Along with being involved in the major industries of MS13 (trafficking cocaine and heroine, weapons and child prostitutes), Spooky appears to be involved in laundering large sums of money for the gang. On the side, Spooky may be selling designer amphetamines to the wealthy Techies in San Francisco

*Max Goldstead: A celebrated sculpturist in his own field, whose stock soared to unprecedented heights when he began his aptly named 'homage' series. Six installations 'inspired' (Shamelessly ripped off) by Lillith's best pieces but on a far larger scale. Max's last two exhibitions show signs of true genius, he may even surpass Lillith one day. He has an upcoming exhibit in the DoReMi that he will be sharing with Lillith.

*Jay Acevedo: Jay is Katie's boyfriend and is a suspected member of the gang MS-13. He is a hispanic man in his early twenties with a buzzed head and the word “Lucha” tattooed in cursive under his left eye. He has a square face, and a nose and brow that have already developed their share of scar tissue. He is also missing his left upper canine. Jay comes off as very confident to the point of perhaps being aloof and cocky.

*Mort: Mort is a surly middle aged detective who mostly works night shifts and pushes papers. He serves as a contact for Karl within the police department. He always sounds exhausted, and annoyed by Karl's infrequent requests for a favor, but he almost always comes through.

*Lucy Fisher: A graduate student at The University, who Rachel has befriended. She works the night shift on the campus, often times in the library. She is smart but shy, with straight dark brown hair and a pale complexion. She wears glasses that are thick rimmed and just a size too small.

Spoiler: Kindred

Show

Carthians
*Nova: A high ranked Carthian who keeps a large Cotiere of Kindred and Ghouls out in the Dog Patch. She is known for her hot headed behavior and general rabble rousing. Though she has managed to anger many Elder Kindred within San Francisco, she has proven too wily and too well armed to take down, and so she has eked out a territory within the city that most respectable Kindred will leave alone.

*Saul: A nebbish Carthian whom the coterie captured, once they tracked a van used to assault Spear vampires to his haven. They have every reason to believe that he has been working with Nova to sow unrest in the city, possibly with the goal of a Carthian take over.


*Reggie Fort Prince of Oakland: Suspected to be in league with Nova and her band of San Francisco Carthians. He was "spotted" by the Coterie at Saul's haven. He has a youthful still face framed by a nest of tight dark curls going grey, and his dark brown eyes are lighted by a pair of wire rim spectacles. He moves with a methodical, animal grace.


Circle of Crone
*Alejandro Perez: A flamboyant and puckish member of the Circle of the Crone. He is tall and slender, dresses flamboyantly and keeps his greasy hair long and curled. Alejandro has entered into an agreement with Aisling to help her join the Circle of the Crone in exchange for assistance overthrowing Mother Blackstar.

*Indra: A dark haired malevolent member of the Circle of the Crone. Indra is fiercely loyal to Mother Blackstar and seems to have it out for Aisling and her Cotiere, even having gone so far as to organize an attack on Aisling in the streets of San Francisco.

Invictus
*Shultz: The Sheriff of San Francisco. Schultz is known as a hard nosed, no-nonsense enforcer of The Prince's edicts. Shultz is known for his large pack of Ghouls and many deputed Hounds, who help him run a secret police like organization of investigators and knee breakers. Those who oppose Prince Gorman's rule refer to Schultz as The Blood Fink, before looking over their shoulder afraid he may be waiting right there to stake and bake them. He has greasy curly hair that he cuts to different lengths, and when on the job is known to wear industrial jump suits which he can get dirty and dispose of.
*Ivanov: A mid-level Invictus who acts as an errand boy for Dennis Collings. Ivanov has a bony face, with short sandy hair and beady eyes. He is known for being fickle and shrewd.

*Nicholas D’Agostino: The youthful and elegant Primogen of San Francisco’s Invictus. Nicholas is well known to be the political rival to Prince Gorman and the two are currently fighting a Cold War of sorts. Nicholas is always well dressed, and exemplifies in many ways the modern gentleman. Embraced in his late 20s, Nicholas D’Agostino has dark brown hair which he keeps well maintained, and favors well tailored Italian suits.

*Anthony ‘Tony’ D’Agostino: Tony is the Childe of the Invictus Primogen. Still a fledgeling under Nicholas’ protection, Tony is slowly being brought into “the family business”. Tony has a dark tan, and sandy hair with frosted tips. Tony is still learning to dress like his Sire, and will often favor more casual clothing.

*Carlisle: A mid-level Nosferatu Invictus. He is tall and stalky, with a face somewhere between burned flank steak and melted pudding. Carlisle is not the most socially skilled Invictus, meaning he can be rather off putting, even with Kindred.

*Frank Beato: Nicholas D'Agostino's right hand. A dark skinned refrigerator of a man with a severe raisin face and fists like boulders. Though Frank seldom speaks, it is well understood that the Nosferatu is not to be trifled with. (Deceased)

*Eliza: The Ventrue Invictus member is a melodramatic art collector and critic in San Francisco. She has a mansion in Pacific Heights and has Ghouled many of the members of her family into servitude. She keeps a small Herd of Dominated mortals to feed on. She acts as a maternal protective figure for Lillith. She generally wears outrageous high fashion outfits when in public, has long curled red hair and piercing blue eyes.

*Zach Thomas: A sniveling brat of a neonate who was likely a trust fund baby from Palo Alto, and who remained an infantile sycophant in un-life. He had practically licked the now ex-Prince's boot heels upon joining The Conspiracy, and once or twice had tried stepping over Lillith in the process. The coterie has kicked his door down and assaulted him in his haven, even going so far as to remove one of his hands.

*Ozzy Mandius: Ozzy is an elder Nosferatu within The Invictus. Mandius had been a strong supporter of Prince Gorman, and some had rumored was a direct ally to the now dusted Schultz. He is the newly elected Invictus Primogen. The Nosferatu is tall and gaunt with skin so pale it has a nearly sickly blue pallor. His face is skeletal with small yellow eyes sunken deep within dark sockets, and the cartilage of his ears appears burned or melted, fused to his skull.

*David Solomon: David Solomon is a relatively young vampire and member of the First Estate. He was some sort of banker, and helps keep track of favors, debts, and Oaths within the Invictus. There is something about Solomon that one might describe as slimy, like he has taken on the worst qualities of a stereotypical American politician.

*Murat: The sire of Zach Thomas. He seems to have it out for the coterie.

Lancea Sanctum
*Antoine: One of the keepers of a small church out in the Mission. Antoine is dark of skin and somber of demeanor.

Ordo Dracul
*Julian: A member of the Ordo Dracul who has come to the player characters with a proposed opportunity to investigate the recent disappearances of Neonate vampires in San Francisco. Though not known to all players, he is The Sworn of the Axe to the San Francisco Ordo, and is feared by those who recognize him for his devastating combat prowes. He is generally an individual of few words and even many in The Ordo know little else about him.

*Mobius: AKA Kyle Marks. A missing Neonate Mekhet of the Ordo Dracul. Mobius dresses like a Poser Goth, and before his disappearance was seen spending time with the Carthians. The players have been summoned to investigate Mobius' sudden and recent disappearance.

*Victor: A power hungry Ventrue of the Ordo Dracul. Victor can be brash, crass and violent. Victor dresses in very modern men's formal wear, usually heavily cologned. Victor and the players had a recent spat, and he may be looking for revenge.

*Miho: An Elder Mekhet in the Ordo Dracul, and Mobius' Sire. Miho is friends with Kenji Tanaka. She is known for her wisdom as well as her cold aloofness and penchant for fits of depression. All members of The Ordo know to avoid Miho during her more wrathful moments. Miho is a Sworn of the Dying Light, and her acumen in the secrets of the Ordo is believed to be near second to none on the West Coast. Miho is also known for her vanity.


Unaligned
*Screech: A foul smelling, pumpkin faced Nosferatu who runs a number of Pier's off of San Francisco' Embarcadero, which allows him to control import and export through the city. Like many of his Clan, he has the ability to annoy or put-off those around him despite his best interests, though he has gathered a reputation for being at times self serving and greedy.

*Hector and Gunner: Members of the Hell's Furies, a Bruja biker gang that runs the California Coast, and the Daly City pool hall known as The Devil's Hole.
