Filii Helenam
The progeny of Helena, Filii Helenam, have been banished from Rome for life as a result of the crimes of one of their number, Mercuzio Tiberus. This fledgling Toreador dared along with his coterie of allies to invade the Vatican Necropolis for the purposes of plunder to steal a relic like no other. Captured by the White Monks, he was imprisoned in Carceri Piranesi, the dreaded wizard's gaol. His sentence is for life, but only months after his arrival, he contrives with several other prisoners and outside forces to escape and now the western church has made his capture and return to the wizard's gaol their goal. The other childer of Helena have made their way to Paris to begin new lives and start over, if that is possible.
