History

Killian Beckham was born in Boston, and raised by a profitable business family in the city. One of the prominent Brahmins of Boston, he grew up well educated and protected. Killian was a rough and ready boy, inclined to trouble and being a bully. Killian graduated well from his boarding school, and went on to college. There he became part of a secret society, who were given private tutors in matters not taught at the college.

These underground classes is where Killian Beckham met Arther Fitzimmons, a Tremere living in the city. Arther was teaching alchemy and other skills to the fraternity looking for likely candidates for the clan. Arther liked Killians drive, and loved his money and access to powerful people. The embrace was accepted by the Regent and the Prince of the city give his agreement.

Killian worked hard to succeed at this studies. He became fascinated by the Fae and interactions with those creatures. He learned much about western Kithain, and after many years asked to move to San Francisco to study there. His clan agreed, as it needed some fresh eyes on the city and it's chantry.

Killian moved and found himself welcomed by Sebastian Stephens, the Regent of the chantry there. Killian began to study the local Fae, as well as the becoming more aware of the Chinese mythology and citizens in the city. Killian learned Mandarin, Japanese, and Korean.

While doing research on the foreign Shen of these people, he became aware of an ancient creature known as Wei Ning. Meeting the ancient vampire was a shock to the white bred Camarilla member. Wei Ning was both Ancient and powerful, learned and unfamiliar with the ways of the West. Killian was also made aware that Wei Ning was cold and terrible, fully bent to the cold, hard philosophy of the Bone Flowers. The two of them began to trade secrets and magic styles. When it came time to take over the city, Wei Ning made Killian an offer he couldn't refuse. The other Tremere of the city were killed or driven out, and Wei Ning kept Killian as a tool and oddity.

Killian has a sense of holding onto the tigers tail...he knows there are teeth at the other end and is afraid to turn loose, though he hates being the voice of the Quincunx in the city.

• Recent Events: Killian has become aware that Wei Ning is working on rituals that weaken the shroud so that the old devil can summon new warriors to San Francisco. Killian is afraid that the Bone Flower isn't as careful as he should be, and that as a result there are now several wights in the city. Wei Ning has told him not to worry about it, that he and the other Kuei-jin will find them and bring them to heel.
