Daedalus the Artificer
Current Status: Tremere Justicar - Pro Tempore
Sobriquet: Archon Primus
Appearance:
Behavior: Daedalus' personality is a study of contrasts. He comes across as a ivory-tower scholar, more at home among dusty tomes than the halls of Elysium. However, he is quite capable of reducing the most hardened harpy to tears with a carefully chosen turn of phrase. He affects a traditional, effete demeanor, but is most excited by innovation: He is a master of technomancy, and his latest protegee has become di Zagreb's personal security expert.
History: Daedalus is now serving his third Tremere Justicar, and may well be older than the current office holder. His ambition is tempered by his personal projects, which he sometimes puts ahead of his latest investigation. Still, his seniority and obvious competence have earned him a position high in the pyramid structure of Tremere archons that mirrors the structure of the clan itself. Indeed, Daedalus is in charge of overseeing operations in South-Eastern Europe when Anistaz is elsewhere.
As Archon Primus, Daedalus often must handle scut work that the Justicar would rather not handle, like training new archons and overseeing projects that require long term dedication, rather than the personal presence of a Justicar to solve. What he thinks of di Zagreb's all-encompassing focus on internal security and mole-hunting is unknown, but he has re-focused his resources accordingly, like a good minion.
