Other Details

  • Car: He drives whichever car he can steal from a victim. The current vehicle is a Mazda SUV.
  • Musical tastes: He listens to a little of everything; he prefers music that shows the struggle humanity undergoes in their inability to grow and change the way he can. Songs about pain, politics, and boundaries especially appeal to his tastes. He has a pair of AirPods and listens to music on his phone pretty much all the time when he’s not actually doing anything. He’s been known to listen to his victims’ favorites on their music apps to be exposed to new things.
  • Personal goals:
    • He intends to find a means to learn Blood Magic; he is waiting for his former childe-target to gain some knowledge over time so he can abduct her and force her to teach him what she knows. This is not a plan he’s discussed with anyone; right now, it’s just in the planning stages. He’s working on creating some incidents in neutral areas to pique her interest and make her want to investigate.
    • He is also keeping an eye open for a new candidate for a childe. Gender means nothing, nor does ethnicity or social standing. He’s just seeking someone intelligent and adaptable, self-possessed, and possessed of dignity, in his opinion.
    • He wants to ghoul a ‘pet’ to serve as a means of protection and company. He’s got his eye on finding a Serval from a designer-cat breeder, and keeping the rest of the cats from the cattery as a means to keep the communal haven free of vermin. His idea is that he could breed his own Revenant-cats long-term.
  • Sire: Jirou’s Sire is an Eastern European Tzimisce; it is from his Sire that he learned Russian and Romanian, and said Sire, Andrei Holban, is the childe of the Priest of the Archbishop’s pack, Lia Albescu. Andrei knows Thaumaturgy but has not shared that knowledge with Jirou yet, because he hasn’t decided that Jirou is worthy of it.
  • Stolen childe: He had picked out a mortal to Embrace, and was in the process of setting up matters to prepare for teaching a new vampire of his clan. In the process, a Tremere rival stole her away and Embraced her into the Camarilla. Needless to say, Jirou is more than a little bit pissed and has sworn to kill said Tremere and steal the childe. Given that said Tremere is an Ancilla, this is a little more difficult than it might seem.
  • View of humanity: He truly pities the best of humanity because most of them will never experience the wonder and glory of the Embrace, and becoming a Childe of Caine. He sees the rest of them as being no more than fodder.
