Audric St.Thierry
Sobriquet: "Master of the Game"
Appearance: Early 40s
Behavior: Audric's public facade of joyous flamboyance and affected foppishness fools most, but not all, of the Kindred of France. In public, he plays the role of harpy perfectly, and though this gains him status in the eyes of the other Kindred, it also removes him from their suspicion. "Can he critique other vampires?" Indubitably! "Does he act well in public?" Impeccably! "Can he play the political game?" Well, let's not push it...
History: But this is exactly what Audric St.Thierry does. A fierce political rival of the Ventrue Joachim von Neumann (though both keep their shadowy feuds quietly out of the public eye), Audric is one of the true financial powers of France. He has interests that delve into every aspect of the French government and economy, and he conducts commerce through so many (and such well placed) intermediaries that few can trace his actions back to him. In the meantime, he plays his part in public as he privately watches the courts for his next targets...or partners.
Recent Events: Twenty years ago, Audric lost his only and most beloved childe L'Epuisette to a Sabbat assassin of the New World; she was killed while aiding the Camarilla takeover of Quebec City in November of 2022. Since then, he has plotted revenge against both of the Kindred he believes are ultimately responsible: Francois Villon - Prince of Paris and Jeremy Sanderson - the Ventrue Alastor who led the Camarilla forces during the acquisition of Quebec City.
