Leeds / Malkavian / Knights of the World Tree

Nickname: Barney, (as a joke) Blunderbuss, (behind his back) Blarmy

Appearance: A well-muscled man of medium height. Barney has longish brown hair, a ready smile, and a number of scars that serve to accent, rather than detract, from his looks.

Background: Barney grew up on the mean streets of the poor(er) side of Leeds. An abused child, he learned to take a beating, and at the age of 13, to give one, when he put his father in the hospital for the first time.

After flunking out of trade school as a mechanic, Barnabus entered training as a professional bodyguard. Though he excelled in the required skills, he was deemed too distractable, and found himself back on the streets without a means to support himself. Fortunately, there is work in Leeds for anyone who is willing to take, and give, a beating. Blunderbus quickly earned an awed reputation for his willingness to keep fighting - and somehow winning - when any sane person would simply give up and lie down. And so it was that he attracted the attention of the insane.

Little really changed for Barney as a Vampire; he simply moved up the food chain, working for vampiric crime lords, rather than their mortal pawns. Respecting his professionalism, Syd Heath hired him as a bodyguard when the Knights of the World Tree expected more than average trouble. After a heated discussion on the propriety of the arrangement, Barnabus was accepted as a full member of the order. Since then, he has earned the respect of his fellows for his selflessness in battle, but earned a reputation for being unwilling to kill the enemy.
