Craxus

Craxus was once the Primogen of the Brujah before abdicating his position in order to lead the defense against the Sabbat rebellion.

Craxus is an old-timer who was around for that whole Thorns thing. He is always to talk about the “good old days”. He has a lot of Street and Legal influences in York, as well as a smattering of Health, Transportation, and University.

Craxus' Secret Link

Craxus Tells a Story

Those of you who've been around, you know I ain't no bullshitter. There's enough fuckers out there who'll feed you a line o' shit the length of yer arm, but I'll tell it like it is. Now you kiddies ain't been around long enough to remember, but things wasn't always like this around these parts. This used to be the Wild Frontier back when me an' Zack first settled here. Used ta be true what they said, a squirrel could go from here ta DC without ever coming down outta the trees, they was that thick round here.

Round that time, this fuckin' Snake name o' Nok came stumblin' into the area. Used ta say he was a Torry, back then. Convinced us that the set'tlers needed to “diversify” they “culture”, an' that they'd come in droves if we helped him. Well, we was snookered, ya see. Bought his load o' shit hook line an' sinker. Helped him build this big ol' mansion, what with passages all beneath it an' shit for us Kindred to hang out in while the mortals hung out upstairs and got a good dose o' “culture.”

Things went well enough at first. Word got 'round that we had a damn fine thee-ate-er up here in tha hills, an' folks started movin' in and buildin' a town. Things was goin' good, fellas found work on the railroad and the wimminfolk all gossiped down by the crick. Come weekends, ev'erbody'd hop on the nearest haywagon and make tracks for the theater in the mansion, cause it was the only entertainment ta be had. We'd all wait quiet-like in the basement, and ol' Nok would hypnotize a few an' send em down to us. Nobody remembered a thing. Nobody caused no waves. It was all nice and peaceful.

Then that fuckin' piece o' shit Nok started importin' a bunch o' freaks into the area. Fuckin' drunks and whores….well, we didn't mind the whores none, truth be told. But the damned drunks were a fuckin' menace! One of em set fire to the train station. Another of em set fire to hisself and stumbled around freakin' out all the mortals so's none of em wanted to come outta they houses come the weekend. We started starvin', cause we'd all got used to not havin' ta hunt. That little pissant made up excuse after excuse, and for some damned reason or another we bought em all at first.

Then, Nok's pappy showed up. It was like Satan hisself shut the door, all the shenanigans stopped cold. The drunks weren't nowhere ta be found, the whores…well, they were okay ta begin with, I guess. The freakshow seemed to have just stopped the minute Nok's pappy came to town.

Well, we rejoiced, I tell you what. Things was back to normal, and we was gettin' our easy pickin's again just like the good ol days. Then one day, You was fuckin' around near the back of one of the passages beneath the thee-at-er, when he calls over to us. Me, Zack, Charles and Jean all hump over ta see what it's got (yeah, we didn' know what You was, even back then! BWAHAHA!), and he holds up his finger to his face, like “shhhh”, so we shush, and he uncovers a hole he's pecked into the side of the wall with those tree-branch fingers o' his. There's a light pouring through the hole, and when we stick our faces up there to have a looksee, by george there's all them freaks and drunks we ain't seen lately, all in a room sittin' on tha floor and starin' straight ahead like they's zombies. There's torches, and the whole room's done up like a Egyptian nightmare. It's got those Egyptian pictures all over the place, but they're all fucked up like. Like they was drawn in someone's blood.

That's when we ran ol' Nok and his pappy outta town. His pappy didn't survive it, but Nok did. He hung around the outskirts, whinin' and beggin', till You became Prince and let him back in on a “provisional” basis.

An' now you know why I hate that damn prick Nok. So get off my lawn!! RRRRRAAAAAAWWWWWR!!
