			== <span style="color:#800000;"> Introduction ==
			''At first glance, this town would seem an odd locale for a
			bloody conflict between vampires. After all, the so-called
			"Limestone City's" population barely reached 55,000 in the
			latest Canadian census; theoretically, this is less than is
			necessary to support a single Kindred. However, Kingston is
			home to two sorts of organizations that the Kindred love:
			universities and prisons. The universities offer easy feeding
			and early access to those who will someday ascend to
			positions of authority; the prisons provide safe feeding from a
			pool of potentially useful ghouls and servitors, and they also
			provide easy cover-ups for "mistakes." Canada's crime
			situation is a fraction of the States', but when criminal
			activities are called for, most Canadian Kindred prefer to use
			homegrown talent instead of importing.''

			''Canada's pre-Confederation capital, Kingston sits at the
			northeast end of Lake Ontario by the St. Lawrence River.
			This positioning makes Kingston important in Kindred affairs
			for two reasons: Whoever controls Kingston can block the
			importing of Kindred through the Great Lakes, and the city
			roughly straddles the Camarilla-Sabbat border in any case.
			The current prince, Iain MacLaren, has a lucrative working
			arrangement with Lucian of Gary in regards to the ferrying of
			vampires down the St. Lawrence and into the States. The
			proceeds from this odd cargo allow MacLaren to maintain his
			position; that, and the occasional Kindred he diverts when
			desperately in need of reinforcements. Kingston also
			crouches by the 401 Highway, which runs from Montreal to
			Detroit. The city's four resident vampires are well aware of
			the havoc a precisely timed accident that blocks all of the
			westbound lanes could cause with a Kindred's night driving
			schedule, and they have been known to use this tactic on
			occasion.''

			''The town's limited heavy industry is long gone; indeed, only
			the Alcan Factory remains. Apart from incarceration for
			criminal or academic purposes, summer tourism is the city's
			other main industry. However, for vampiric purposes, the
			colleges and prisons are quite enough.''

			== <span style="color:#800000;"> Who's Who ==
			''There are only four Camarilla vampires in Kingston.
			MacLaren, a ninth-generation Ventrue, serves nominally as
			prince, helped tremendously by the largesse he spreads
			among his three "subjects." Serving as a sort of loyal
			opposition is Angelique Cormier, a Quebecois expatriate and
			10th-generation Brujah who spends her time lobbying for
			Camarilla incursions into her Sabbat-dominated home
			province. Refusing to take part in the local political scene is
			Merill Olsen, a Gangrel of indeterminate generation and great
			age who still nurses bitterness over the removal (more than a
			century ago) of Kingston's designation as capital. Rounding
			out the quartet is, oddly enough, a Camarilla-affiliated
			Samedi named Driscoll, who works as a janitor on the night
			shift at Kingston Penitentiary. Driscoll controls access to the
			prisoner population, which includes such luminaries as child
			rapist Clifford Olson and multiple rapist/murderer Paul
			Bernardo. However, Kingston does have a high turnover
			when it comes to vampiric visitors: Periodic Sabbat assaults
			require frequent reinforcements, and other Canadian
			vampires also want to get in on the fun at Queens, the Royal
			Military College and the local prisons.''
