Overview:
The Gangrel have gravitated to the more martial positions needed in Camarilla society. In Georgetown, they occupy the majority of the S’eth Adar forces who battle Sabbat incursions. In Alexandria, many have taken to joining the Rangers under Priest, the Gangrel Primogen.
To the north of the Potomac, the Gangrel largely stood by as the Venture staged a coup against the hedonistic and possibly mad Toreador Prince George on December 7, 1994. Long had members of the Clan been slighted by the Prince and his disinterest in the looming Sabbat threat was the last straw. However, at the conclusion of the coup in the Smithsonian National Zoo, the Gangrel were shocked by the sudden arrival of a Sabbat War Party. It remains to be seen how the Gangrel fared in the ensuing conflict.
To the south of the Potomac, the Gangrel are hemmed in with the rest of the Kindred as the Tremere have placed a psychic bubble wall around Northern Virginia. Many Gangrel did not take kindly to the Prince’s potestas edictum calling for blood draughts to be taken from Kindred citizens to ensure “safety and security.” The clan is split on this matter, however, as many in the security apparatus of Alexandria are Gangrel.
The Gangrel antitribu are among the most ferocious front line fighters brought in for the initial attack on Camarilla holdings in the city. The roving packs hail from all over the Sabbat’s Eastern Seaboard.
Kindred and Cainites
Alec
Gangrel of Alexandria. Alec attended the meeting of the Brujah and other malcontents at Franklin’s Pub in Old Town Fairfax on December 8, 1994 in reaction to the Prince’s potestas edictum.
Ashford, Hunter
Gangrel of Alexandria. Hunter attended the meeting at Franklin’s Pub in Old Town Fairfax on December 8, 1994 of the Brujah and other malcontents of Prince Elaine’s potestats edictum. He seemed to be in favor of doing something to stand against this ruling of the Crown, including withholding blood from the census takers.
Bennett
Gangrel of Georgetown. Not much was known of the tall, lanky fellow, other than he bet against Rose in an underground street fight at The Red Dog on Boxing Day of 1985, yet rooted for them nonetheless. He was a customer at The Red Dog and made some strange small talk with Rose before the big match. He was next seen launching himself from the misty snow in Rock Creek Park at Rose where he struggled and then embraced his new childe. His whereabouts are unknown, but he told Rose he’d be looking out for them and that he would expect to see them at the strike of midnight of the New Year in 1986 at the Elks Lodge in Bowie, Md. Bennett met up with Jinx and Rose alongside the rest of the S’eth Adar of the Camarilla at the Elk’s Lodge in preparation for the New Year’s Day attack. He stayed guard at the Elks Lodge and didn’t get involved in the actual attack on the Bowie Skate-O-Rama. Nonetheless, he joined in afterwards to congratulate his childe’s heroism. The next week, he joined Priest and Rose for Rose’s Presentation to Prince George. He gifted his childe with an old camper in Belt Woods Natural Environment Area near Six Flags America in Maryland that he could use as a haven. Rose has occasionally run into Bennett at Gangrel Gathers over the early 1990s, and he often takes credit for Rose’s accomplishments á la “Look at my Boy! That’s My Boy!” like he did shit. His whereabouts are unknown following the Sabbat attack on Georgetown on December 7, 1994.
Daria
Gangrel of Alexandria. Deputy Sheriff of the Domain of Alexandria. Daria attended the Alexandria Elysium on February 23, 1989 as a guard of the proceedings. She had a brief conversation with her clanmate, Rose. Vitus has had reason to work with the Rangers on occasion as a volunteer mindsweeper throughout the early 1990s. Daria was at the Alexandria Elysium on December 8, 1994 for the Prince’s potestas edictum following the Sabbat attack on the Domain of Georgetown.
German
Gangrel antitribu. German was a part of the Sabbat expeditionary force which attacked the Georgetown Elysium on December 7, 1994. He and two of his comrades were watching the back of the zoo near the panda enclosure to catch stragglers after the main attack. Vitus, Rose and Prentiss attacked and were successful. Vitus bested German and diablerized him. Now what is left of German’s soul, his memories (including what he knew of the Sabbat attack plans) and his Disciplines are now a part of Vitus. Read German’s Final Nights here.
Harden, Marci
Gangrel of Alexandria. Marci attended the meeting of the Brujah and other malcontents on December 8, 1994 at Franklin’s Pub in Old Town Fairfax in reaction to the Prince’s potestas edictum.

McGee, Granite “G”
Gangrel of Georgetown. G McGee is a fighter in the S’eth Adar forces in the Battle of Bowie on January 1, 1986. He was injured in the battle, but survived. G was seen by Vitus and Rose on various S’eth Adar missions throughout the early 1990s. Granite was a S’eth Adar soldier on guard duty in the investigation at the Ansara estate on December 6, 1994 following the assassination of the Ventrue Primogen. He donned a firefighter’s suit and entered the smoldering estate at the behest of Vitus. He survived the ordeal without frenzying. G was one of the few Gangrel in attendance at the Georgetown Elysium at the Smithsonian National Zoo on December 7, 1994. He was wearing his S’eth Adar coat. He stood by as the Prince was deposed and did nothing to help Prince George. Following the staking, G followed Karl Raeger and the phalanx of Ventrue as they set out into the zoo, looking for a way out other than the main entrance. G’s fate following the Sabbat attack is unknown at this time.
Miles, Barry
Gangrel of Georgetown. Barry Miles was a fighter in the S’eth Adar forces in the Battle of Bowie on January 1, 1986. His head was merged with his torso by a Tzimisce priest. He was euthenized at his own begging.
Priest
Gangrel of Georgetown. Priest is the General of the S’eth Adar of Georgetown and led the battle from Elk’s Lodge against the Sabbat pack of Bowie, Md. on January 1, 1986. He personally Presented Rose and Rommell Carrillo before the Prince at Elysium on January 6, 1986 and took Rose under his wing, giving him the “Gangrel” rundown of the Traditions. Some time between 1986 and 1994, Priest was made the Gangrel Primogen of the Domain of Georgetown. Rose met with Priest on several occasions including the Gangrel Gathers. Priest mentored Rose throughout the early 1990s and helped them to master their Disciplines. Priest introduced Rose to Big Frieda. Priest was at the Georgetown Elysium at the Smithsonian National Zoo on December 7, 1994 and was seen talking with the Tremere Primogen Lord Kairns and the temporarily-appointed Ventrue Primogen Barnaby Wilcox just before Jordan Binham and Clan Ventrue made their move in a coup against Prince George. Priest was complicit in the coup and didn’t lift a finger to help the deposed Prince. Priest joined the Ventrue phalanx as they all marched through the zoo, looking for a way out. His fate is unknown at this time, though Rose called one of Priest’s ravens to them on December 9, 1994 in hopes that Priest is still alive.
Raeger, Karl
Gangrel of Georgetown. Karl is Priest’s lieutenant and led the forces of the Camarilla in the Battle of Bowie at the Skate-o-Rama on January 1, 1986. While injured, he survived. Some time between 1986 and 1994, Karl was made General of the S’eth Adar. Karl was impressed with the work of Vitus for the S’eth Adar throughout the early 1990s. Karl helped to lead the investigation into the attack on Primogen Martino Ansara on December 6, 1994. He went along with Prentiss, Vitus, J.T. and G McGee into the smoldering mansion to look for clues. Outside, the group deliberated and found that it had indeed been a coordinated attack by the Red Talon Sabbat Pack. On December 7, when Rose returned a call to the General, Karl told them that they might just catch a “blood flu” and not show up to Elysium that evening, but if they did, they would be expected to follow the lead of the Clan in what was ominously alluded to go down. Karl was at the Georgetown Elysium that evening, looking agitated before the Ventrue made their move. Karl stood by as the Prince was deposed. Once George was staked, Karl joined the Ventrue phalanx as they all marched through the zoo, looking for an exit. His fate is unknown at this time.
Range, Bradley
Gangrel of Georgetown. Bradley Range was a S’eth Adar fighter in the Battle of Bowie on January 1, 1986. He was killed in battle by the Sabbat.
Reggie
Gangrel of Alexandria. Reggie attended the meeting of the Brujah and other malcontents at Franklin’s Pub in Old Town Fairfax City on December 8, 1994, following Prince Elaine’s potestas edictum. Reggie seemed in favor of taking some form of action against the Crown.
Rukus
Gangrel antitriubu. Rukus was a member of the Sabbat Pack of Bowie and was celebrating the vaudlerie on New Year’s 1986 when the Camarilla’s S’eth Adar rolled up in a sneak attack. Rukus fought well and managed to kill Bradley Range of Clan Gangrel, but he was ultimately decapitated by the Brujah J.T.
Sampson
Gangrel Sheriff of Alexandria. Sheriff of the Domain of Alexandria. Sampson was on duty at the Valentine’s Day Alexandria Elysium on February 14, 1989. He mentioned to the Prince that he could use the services of the two condemned unauthorized 13th Generation Brujah childer, and so they were released into his custody in perpetuity. Sampson attended the Alexandria Elysium on February 23, 1989 as the head of security. He had a flirty conversation with Thaïs. Sampson interrogated “George” (#7) at Washington National Airport on November 30, 1994 after the interloper triggered (intentionally) detection. He had his underling Rebecca deliver him to the Lighthouse Chantry, leaving his fate for the Tremere to decide. It is unknown as to how the Tremere have managed to keep the presence of Number 7 a secret as Sampson is aware of it. Sampson had a sparring date with Thaïs on December 4, 1994 at Jason Li’s dojo in Annandale. Sampson continued his flirty fight with Thaïs until he was interrupted by a phone call from the Seneschal of Alexandria. Vittorio apparently had some sort of emergency which required Sheriff Sampson’s immediate attention. Sampson was at the Alexandria Elysium on December 8, 1994 for the Prince’s potestas edictum. Later that evening, he drove with Vittorio to inspect the wall and refugee situation at Chain Bridge. He offered his support to Rose and whatever remained of the S’eth Adar and told Rose to send animals to find him if he can help in any way.
Schroyer, Robert “Bobby”
Gangrel of Georgetown. Robert is the Domitor of the domain of College Park, Maryland. He called upon the aid of the S’eth Adar on February 14, 1989 when his ghouled police officer discovered a body drained of blood with “unlicked” bite marks on his neck. He helped the S’eth Adar officers Prentiss and Rose as best as he could, but is clearly out of his depth. He met again with Rose with Rose’s crew (Jinx and Vitus) to track down Brock Thompson somewhere on campus. He helped in the investigation at the new Arts Centre on February 16, 1989. Following the capture of Brock Thompson, Bobby was left to take care of the Masquerade breach, in return for sharing in the boon in Alexandria. Bobby later told Vitus over the phone that Prentiss would be accepting the boon in his stead, as he couldn’t clean up the mess on his own. He arrived at the Old Torpedo Factory in Old Town Alexandria with Prentiss in tow on February 17, 1989 to transfer his boon to Prentiss. Bobby attended the Alexandria Elysium on February 23, 1989 with Prentiss clinging to his arm as his “date.” He had his boon transferred to her. Rose has run into Bobby at Gangrel Gathers throughout the early 1990s.
Vandy Rae
Gangrel of Georgetown. Self-styled “Duchess of Rockville.” She has some dealings with the S’eth Adar. Vandie Rae took pity upon a clueless Rose and decided not to Blood Bond him, but to show him the ropes a little bit: in exchange for an undetermined favor in the future. She let Rose into her storage room underneath “The Last Chance” bar in Rockville, Md. in the early morning hours of Monday, December 30, 1986. She later met up with Rose, Jinx and the rest of the S’eth Adar combatants as they prepared for the Battle of Bowie in the early hours of New Year’s Day 1986. She fought in the battle and was nearly surprise-attacked by a Nosferatu antitribu, but was saved by a precognizant Jinx. She was at Jinx and Rose’s Presentation before Prince George at the Smithsonian Castle Elysium on January 6, 1986. Rose has run into Vandy Rae on a few occasions, including Gangrel Gathers, throughout the early 1990s. Vandy Rae was one of the few Gangrel attending the Georgetown Elysium at the Smithsonian National Zoo on December 7, 1994. Vandy was frightened by the commotion and attempted to leave by way of the front exit. There were screams heard coming from the area as the Sabbat attacked, but her final death is not yet confirmed.
Zeke
Gangrel antitribu. The powerful rage-filled Gangrel was a part of the Sabbat forces looking to sweep up resistance following the Fall of Georgetown on December 7-8 of 1994. Zeke attacked Rose and Vitus amid a flow of bullets from Vitus’ guards. He was destroyed and his heart’s blood eaten. Zeke’s soul swam with Rose’s in a state of conflict. Rose confronted Zeke in her mind in a ritual conducted by The Sisterhood on December 10 in their cave on a mountainside at the Virginia/West Virginia border. At the conclusion of the confrontation and battle, the abused boy Zeke was all that was left. The Inner Childe of this monster hugged Rose and his spirit was freed into whatever awaits such spirits.
Ghouls
Bonnie
Domitor: Karl Raeger
Bonnie left a message with Rose on December 7, 1994 to call back General Karl Raeger before Elysium was to begin that night.
