This will be a regular (probably weekly) installment of Kindred gossip and news. think of us as the Undead Daily Mail. It's mostly bullshit and gossip (with the occasional pair of nice bewbies) and a hint of truth in there somewhere.
I'll put the information into sections, common knowledge as one, Goldleaf gossip for the stuff that elders might let slip in the Members only boys club and then plain old odd shit. Common Knowledge:
In this section we'll have the news that has shot round the city faster than Hep C in a submarine. Every Kindred that's had any contact with the elysiums or other kindred groups would have picked up off the grape vines.
1) The assault on the Goldleaf club.
The scuttlebutt on this one is that a group of anarchs, attacked the elders only club, in an attempt to slay the prince. The prince personally slew their leader in defense of the city, risking his own life. He was ably assisted by Mister G. Tepes, Miss Ce Glace and our infamous Seneschal Miss Mia Andrishka. Although the attackers were heavily armed the elders and the heroic Prince were unharmed.
2) The goldleaf club will be reopening hopefully within the week.
3) There has been a major restructuring within the Tremere chantry. Several new members of the clan have moved in. Suspected take over bid, is the prince being challenged? Goldleaf gossip:
1) The attackers weren't disgruntled anarchs. They were Sabbat. Predominantly Tzimisce. War is coming.
2) The Goldleaf will be open but will become the war room.
3) Stirrings within the cities ventrue contingent suggests that a struggle for power has begun in recent nights. A lot of favours have been called in.
4) Ansel Kauffman as Nosferatu representative to the primogen council reports several missing "waifs and strays" in the lower strata of kindred society. Scuttlebutt from the streets.
1) A weird looking guy has been seen haunting the jewelery quarter. Long face and pale skin, seen a half dozen times. Described by a friend of a friend who heard it from a mate, that his eyes were jet black and the guy was "creepy as shit"
2) notorious pick pocket and petty thief eluded the police again for the fourteenth time in three weeks. His calling card found at the scene was a long dark bird feather. He's become a local tabloid smash as the "Blackbird".
3) Locals in the Chelmsley wood area reported two whole streets shook violently in an earth tremor. The Meteorological service report that no such event took place on any sensors of theirs. Is there something living underground? Is there a monster down there?

Common Knowledge:
1) The attack at the open air market:
A Vampire by the name of Madea was attacked by three blood bonded childer, and though all three were successfully put down, the Masquerade was put at serious risk. Thanks to Madea, Annie, Marc Antony, and others, the Masquerade survives still in the City.
2) War is Obvious:
They are attacking in small guerrilla factions all over the city. Through the efforts of many, most of the attacks are down played or completely unseen by the humans, but the increasing numbers of attacks as well as the Clan behind it leaves little doubts in anyone's mind.
3) A Shift in Power:
There is little doubt that a power play is either already in action, or about to occur, for the amount of Tremere is becoming dangerously high and is showing a tip in the scales to their favor. With precious little to stop them, rumors are beginning to circulate that perhaps the Tremere might have something to do with the attacks, perhaps even behind it all in order to weaken the Prince's standing.
The Gold Leaf Rumors:
1) Senechal Mia is in love with the Prince:
It has been overheard that Senechal Mia is in love with the Prince, and that her rise from bitch harpy to the esteemed location she sits not, might not have been for the reasons that had been listed. Does the Prince keep her close not because she is really useful, but rather for something a little less public, and a little more in out in out?
2) New Comer to the City Making Enemies:
New comer Grivaddian, A Ventrue of questionable background, has been heard to be making waves... Someone has heard the Senechal and the Venture exchanging some heated words, and not in the romantic sort of way either, closer to the point of a possible altercation. In a swift take over, this Ventrue had displaced the old Primogen and taken his place, and has continually made strong inroads into society.
3) Moles and not the Birthmark Kind:
Rumors of a possible mole being in the elite circles of Vampire society has many a kindred concerned about who they speak with. Not that it is stopping anyone from speaking, oh no, the harpies are going at light speed now. Still,it has many questioning long standing and recent acquaintances alike, and more than a bit of distrust is being shared between opposing circles and factions.
Scuttlebutt From the Street:
1) Freaky as Fuck Is Fucking Creepy:
More rumors are going about here and there, running jokes about Paul, ET, and Ancient Aliens spokesman are a bit rampant now. What ever that creepy thing is, apparently it scared the shit out of the charming local Chav of the area, who said and we quote.
"That ting was scary as hell I thought I shit mii pants when I saw it buh ya know I handled mii business I bang up mii hands and offered to beef it one on one buh da ting ran scared wot a pussy
"

Common Knowledge:
Grivaddian Tepes has been re-established as the Primogen of the Ventrue, his position once thought to be that of a turn-cloak, was revealed by the Prince to be done all on his request. As such, he is a bit of the popular figure at court, and once more the Ventrue are in a position of political power within the city. The partnership between them and the other Clans is on a steady rise as everyone prepares for the next attack.
Kathy Goldman was recently put on a political time out by the Prince after a recent cat fight broke out between herself and Annie. As such, her face has not been seen at the GoldLeaf for some months, and many believe the Prince has Exiled her from court until further notice.
The GoldLeaf Rumors:
Areittie DuPonte has recently become Available after the death of Marcus, the ‘Right Hand’ of the Prince. Of course, there are rumors that it would take a brave Kindred to go against Ansel, who apparently has his eye on the young lady. Of course, this is a matter of great sorrow and remorse for many of the Toreador and Ventrue of the Club, for neither enjoys seeing a beautiful human taken in a Cleopatra Embrace.
Apparently the Tzimisce know no bounds, though this should not be surprising in the end, for all they are certainly the most warped of the group. Tales tell of not midgets attacking groups, but rather children, embraced and morphed by their makers… Who better to slip in undetected than a child which is no taller than two feet or so at best? Worse is that as children, they have no sense of control or honor, and have been seen converging on a hapless victim like a swarm of rats on a bit of decaying cheese. This horror has driven more than a few of the younger Kindred to draw in close to the places of safety in the city.
Scuttlebutt from the Streets:
As of yet, no one has yet to find out who has been grave robbing and disturbing the bodies laid to rest, for several fresh corpses have been found about town in various stages of…. Decay… Oddly enough, no theft of the bodies belongings have been discovered, so robbery is not seen as a motive to the Crime.
A massive Pregnancy Pact seems to have taken over Birmingham, with seventeen young women all becoming pregnant around the same time, causing a large fuss over paternity as… Each of the young women swear that an ‘Angel’ was the father of their children. Since none of the young women nor their families are particularly religious, faith is not seen as a cause of such statements, instead many blaming it on television shows and bad soaps.
