Hex
[[]]
Appearance: Hex is a too-scrawny creature whose wide bald head, yellowish skin and too-large ears are reminiscent of certain creatures from science fiction. At home, he wears comfortable t-shirts and jeans or sweats, though few ever see him like this. When forced to go out and meet others in the "flesh world," he wears what a 1980's hacker might have considered "badass:" Black jeans held up with a belt of handcuffs, a black shirt emblazoned with the logo of some long-defunct and extremely loud musical group, steel-toed high tops, all beneath a black silk trench coat. His fangs are pressed together in the middle of his mouth, and do not retract, giving him a buck-toothed rodentine look.
Background: Few besides the Nosferatu keep track of their embracees: Lady Anne and her deputies are in no position to tell what they know. Hex first gained the notice of the London's Kindred in the late 1980's as a cyber-anarchist. Some of his victims were tied to influential Ventrue, at least one of whom paid well to convince him to re-direct his mischief toward a rival. By the dawn of the 21st century, Hex was well known in kindred circles, even if his face was not.
When the Sabbat came to call, Hex was one of those in the loop enough to get out of dodge. He spent a decade and a half in Glasgow, and now that London has been liberated, he has returned to his old haunts. Some wonder if he really cares where he is based: His kind of mischief needs no Earthly base.
Personality: Hex is capable of being polite, and his small stature makes him seem somewhat obsequious. However, like many Nosferatu, he takes liberties at the expense of those he feels are too full of themselves when he knows he is needed. Few Nosferatu his age are needed as much as he is, so he gets to have a fair amount of fun at the expense of the effete. Online, he is a self-righteous holy terror. He is so sure of his ability that he thinks nothing of "incarcerating" "trolls," whether they are snot-nosed teens or representatives of Interpol.
Duties: As the foremost computer expert among London's Kindred, Hex is responsible for online Masquerade cleanup and ensuring the security of Camarilla communications. In concert with like-minded neonates in most Camarilla cities, he provides updated encryption software to London's Kindred as part of a boon on the city itself (The new Prince, Senschal, and even the Sheriffs are likely to pay the boon when he calls it due, but so valuable is the service that even Justicars have been known to honor similar obligations).
Rumors:
Remember, rumors can be true, false, or somewhere in between.
- Hex is a member of the Order of Worde, a secret society of Avalonian Nosferatu who report to Mithras's Satraps.
- Hex is fabulously wealthy, with billions or trillions in Euros, Pounds, Dollars, Yuan and other currencies: The product of both theft and the price he charges for his skills.
- Hex is the leader of a gang of cyber-anarchists who are responsible for the downfall of several third world governments.
