Dublin

Ireland -x- British Isles

Vampiric History

Ambitious Vampiric Knights from the Baronies of Avalon invaded what would become Dublin during the 10th and 11th centuries. They built a series of fortifications they called "The Pale" to keep the Isle's native vampires, ancient Ventrue followers of the Road of the Beast known as the Connachta, Gangrel Einherjar, and Lhiannan, at bay. ("Beyond The Pale" originally meant the part of Ireland not protected by this ring of forts.) It took more than three centuries, but the ambitious young kindred of The Pale defeated the Connachta, and established the sister Barony Conacht based in modern-day Cork.

Perhaps their success made them overly complacent, but the vampires of The Pale began to disappear. By the time their sires and grandsires in England took notice, most of the Knights of the Pale were gone. Though a few stragglers made it back to England in disgrace, the entire venture was considered a failure. A few sires even removed their own childer from view to lessen their disgrace. Mortals sent from Conacht to investigate found only abandoned havens, and vampiric investigators disappeared as well. Two more expidetitions from London disappeared during the 14th century. Avalon gave up on Dublin.

The Camarilla was not so well informed. By the 15th century, neonates from around Europe called Dublin their home. However, the city has remained a mysterious dying ground for elders, particularly those who owe alliegance to Avalon. Since the disappearance of Baron Edward de Warne, no Prince has held hegemony in dublin for more than three decades.

Today, Dublin has a violent and dangerous reputation among Vampires. Anarchs and poorly educated neonates rule the streets, vying with one another for scraps of influence and power. By the time they learn enough of their own history to understand what lies in store for them, they are too locked into the power game to easily move. A hand-full of Ancilia protect the masquerade and oversee the city's affairs, each secretly making plans for when their own times will come, all the while knowing that Expatriate Primogen are as welcome as Sabbat in most Camarilla cities.

As yet, no one has ever pierced the centuries-old mystery of what has happened to Dublin's elders. Dublin is now the only domain in all of the isles that does not pay homage or tribute to Mithras.
