Collins





Description

There is no telling what Collins will look like today. His appearance always stuns other Kindred, especially those who awaken in the evening while in his presence. His appearance seems to be random, even without use of Obfuscate. His face always appears slightly longer than usual, and his face and gender never change, though his skin, hair and eye color are often different, as well as his clothes and style. However, he always wears a dark red pendant around his neck. This necklace is very significant to him, though he cannot explain why (Indeed, it is what keeps him from being lost in time. It was given to him by his deceased true love in a future that has not yet happened).


Statistics Author's Note: In truth, Collins has no set Statistics. Indeed, if he needs to use an ability, roll a 10 sided die and divide it in two to figure out his current rating in the Skill. If you roll a 1, he knows nothing of it and rolls at a +1 difficulty, in addition to the normal penalties. If you roll a 10, he is automatically successful and rolls that skill at a -1 difficulty for the rest of the scene. Collins never consciously uses his Disciplines, so any that he might need, he might have at any given time. Also, all other characters have a -1 difficulty to rolls involving the Supernatural. Collins just seems to attract weird happenings.

Many stories are told of Collin's origins. Some say he is the Childe of an ancient evil that rests beneath Milhaven. Others that he came across with the French explorers who founded Firestone. Still others claim he has simply always been there. Collins does not tell the same story twice. Indeed, this seems to be because he no longer knows himself.

Author's Note: Collin is not really a Kindred at all. He is a former Cult of Ecstacy Mage that has entered Quiet as an after effect of some future assault that (will) destroy his Chantry. The effects of his Quiet make him percieve ALL time at the same time. They have also cursed him with the effects of Vampirism, as reality tries to reassert control over the young Mage. He also finds himself unable to leave Milhaven. When he tries, Reality bends, confusing him even more. In fact, the events that brought him to where he is have not even happened yet, and if he is to run into his Awakened self, he will instinctively try to destroy himself, preventing the tortured existence he now leads.

  • Malkavian Primogen - Believed to be a pawn
  • Sympathetic to the Anarchs for reasons he doesn't understand
  • Hates Reinhardt - Hints at knowing more than he does, consiously
  • Plans to sacrifice himself to prevent the ritual of the Leaf, the Key and the Chalice
  • Knows Lucien must be destroyed - seems unfazed by Lottie's existence
  • Often knows things he has no business knowing
  • Totally unpredictable
