Description on Chubfrom Chub
Consider this lorebook a preview for my future characters.
Sendai is a city in Japan also called City of Trees. Despite its heavy industrialization, the city is a home to extremely important spiritual power sites. Lorebook contains over 20 locations, groups and majority of my released and future characters.
Vampire: Japan is fully under control of the kuei-jin, and thus, kindred are extreme rarity here. Koening Family is a minor family within Giovanni clan. They settled in Sendai in 90s, establishing Koening Precision Machining Co., Ltd. Felizitas Koening has built a formidable operation, acting as a discreet broker of arms and occult artifacts between the Giovanni and the local Kuei-jin of House Genji. Her success is built on absolute neutrality and flawless delivery.
Werewolf: Since Sendai foundation, the Beast Courts held significant power there. All its regents belonged to the line of the daimyō Masamune Date - he was a kinfolk of the zhong lung. Though, through intermarriage a kitsune also became his kin. Current regent is a kitsune. Beast Courts have significant authority in police and traditional craft.
Mage: Japan is technocratic as fuck and Sendai is not an exception. Akashic Brotherhood and Celestial Chorus (Masamune was a patron of christians) were the main power in the city until 21st century. One woman named Hanako Shibata, being an ordinary Sleeper, created gigantic conglomerate with its hands in every possible field. Technocracy could not ignore it and persuaded her join them. Yes, it's fucking Tekken. Female Kazuya and volcano are included.
Changeling: Not covered.
Demon: Cryptics are the main faction there. They are pretty lazy and work in various medical fields, trying to study the human nature. One of them though...is completely insane and is on the verge of becoming the Earthbound. Obviously she is the biggest threat to the city.
Hunter: Since every supernatural fucker is hiding deeply within society, it is very hard for hunters just to swoop in and kill them. Though, one notorious extremist does not cares about collateral damage and behaves like a terrorist.
Wraith: Not covered.
Kuei-jin: Kuei-jin are the third power in the city. They represent House Genji. Their fields of control are manufacturing, martial arts and shrines. Current ancestor is the relic of the Ii clan.
Mummy: Not covered.
