Flaws: None
Secrets: Shortly after the death of the previous Tremere Regent, Grigor stole a handful of Thaumaturgic texts from those found in the old chantry. There was never an official investigation and no one ever suspected Grigor; to date, no one now suspects he has developed the rudiments of thaumaturgy on his own and if he has his way, no one ever will.
Plots: Grigor has played the game admirably, so far. His ambition is only equaled by his caution; he knows he is only one step from the princedom, but he also knows he is no match for the current Prince or Primogen. His strategy is one of calculated patience, eventually everyone makes a mistake and those with power tend to make powerful mistakes; Grigor won't actively thwart the Prince or Primogen, but he might take advantage of their blunders. On the other hand, Grigor knows who he can trust and won't betray a friend; in life, he had few friends and in unlife, he has fewer.
Destiny: If Grigor's slowly cooling relationship with his sire and his deception of the Tremere don't get him killed, he could well be the next Prince of Sofia.
