Svetlana Valentin
Title: Primogen of Clan Toreador
Pet Name: Sveta
Domain: Triaditsa is located in southern Sofia, has an area of 10 square kilometers and a mortal population of 65, 000. It is the shopping hub of Sofia and as such is the second most prosperous district in the city; its economy relies on services, trade, finance, tourism and administration. It is home to the National Palace of Culture (NDK), numerous medical facilities, The Earth and Man National Museum, four churches and five police stations. Triaditsa is also home to the City Center Sofia Mall; which consists of a full six stories and a total built-up area of 44,000 m². There are more than 100 stores, several cafés, a pharmacy, a variety of beauty parlors, numerous bank offices and an abundance of parking. There are also two hypermarkets presented in the mall: Technomarket and Picadilly. The cinema complex "Cineplex" has six halls with a total of 1,340 seats.
Elysium: NDK (The National Palace of Culture)
Description: A willowy blond (standing 1.8 meters tall and weighing no more than 68 kilos), with dark mahogany eyes, strong Slavic features and ivory skin. She tends to dress conservatively, after the Russian communist tradition and wears little makeup. Her face wears a perpetually look of worry or strain and has an air of severity that follows her where ever she goes.
Personality: Sveta is still something of an enigma to the Kindred of Sofia because until recently, she lay in the shadow of her mentor Sienneo Neroli. It is well known that she is passionate about dance and that she was educated at the Moscow Conservatory. Though demure in general, she can be outspoken on occasion and is an excellent conversationalist. She tends to fall into the traditional role of a Toreador as a shepherd of the arts.
Notes: Since Sveta’s elevation in late 2007, she has formed close ties with the Ventrue led by Gustavus and the Tremere led by Karl Johansen, thus forming the traditional three sided power block known throughout the Camarilla as the “Triple Alliance”. She has recently taken a female fledgling Degenerate under her wing and has openly spoken of embracing a protégé.
Current Events: Sveta has recently been very active in mortal artistic circles and has brought her innovative young protégés into Elysium for a desperately needed infusion of “new blood.” Along with a vast increase in the number of artistic intellectuals, the Primogen of Clan Toreador has openly spoken of needing a full-time Keeper to properly organize her venues. When she cannot be found in the most important Elysium sites, she can usually be found at the Hotel Hemus only a short walk from the NDK.
