An Admonition
A note on my character's nature versus his nurturing and how reading these internal monologues is going to sound to people who will never be able to read them.
By nature, I have always kept the world at a distance, there are probably countless reasons for this, but the point is that even when I am affectionate, it is at a distance. This is simply who I am. I have never been a part of a coterie and it is unlike me to bond with any group in that way. I simply prefer to do things my way and that is the final consideration regardless how I might feel about my associates.
In the world of the undead, how one is nurtured and indoctrinated makes up about ninety percent of clan lore and such.
The Lasombra Antitribu are from their own perspective, the creme-dale-creme of Caine's Childer. That is the simple fact of the matter, even the effete Ventrue play the seneschal to the Lasombra's royal status. It is no one's fault, not everyone can be gifted with the rarest of vitae. I was ridiculously lucky and I will spend the rest of eternity proving to my sire, grand-sire and siblings that I deserve to be one of them, but I would not have it any other way.
That others envy me, hate me or both, is only to be expected as servants are often unaware of their status in the beginning. And while I may seem indulgent by Lasombra Antitribu standards, it is simply easier to indulge the menials in the beginning rather than stoop to their level and bicker with them, eventually they will fall into line with the right schooling.
This is simply how things are, and nothing is going to change this state of affairs, it is how Caine intended things to be, after all, we were the first to receive his dark gift.
