8/22/03 - Harpy Report - Derek Bishop

i'm going to skip the formalities and get right to business.

we have had some changing of the guard.

most importantly dr. orrano is our new prince, he is known to be "loyal", "exalted", "well-known", and "famous". i wish him the best of luck. he'll need it. as his seneschal he has appointed ivy dupree of clan toreador.

sebastion dubois, primogen of clan tremere, has been appointed as the sherriff. he will now be know as "feared".

drakhos drakhir is our new keeper of elysium and is now known to be "honorable"

we've had some new arrivals to town. the following have all been acknowledged by our new prince dr.orrano.

Antonio Destaphano of clan ventrue is "well-connected"

Ivy Dupree of clan toreador is also "well-connected"

malkavian you (not me)

i welcome all of you. please try and enjoy your stay.

oh yeah. dante the caitiff is "protected" in our city.

vernon made a call to arms. he called for anyone who wished to fight the sabbat to meet with him at the warehouse. we had a better turn out than expected. peabody comenced the briefing then left us to sort out plans of attack.

we split into three teams plus an extra distraction team that i arranged on the fly. the red team was composed of vernon peabody, zoe miller, and dr. prince orrano. the blue team was lead by sabastion dubois and consisted of members of clan ventrue, tremere, nosferatu, toreador, gangrel, setite. the black team was clan brujah plus myself and bob.

i will go into a brief summarry of the events of the evening as i saw them happen.

we, the red team split into two groups one takeing western road one taking the east. jack burton was driving his semi with McEnzee, McTierden, and Blade in tow. bob and myself rode with Mr.Snatchatori in his hummer. bob was the wheel-man. as we were traveling down the road. a white car pulled out in front of us blocking our way(how they saw us coming was beyond me as vinnys hummer is painted a stealthy yellow) and six hoods stepped out. i initially thought them to be brujah or gangrel thugs, but much to my surprise they turned out to be elite ninja warriors. vinny and i told bob to floor it and drove right over their car killing two of them. the other four manged to jump onto our vehicle. the three of us fought hard to wipe out the ninja and eventually prevailed. the rest of the ride was uneventful, besides bob spilling my frapachino in my lap, but thats a story for another time.

as we arrived at the gates (or what was left of them) we could see the other brujah had plowed through the front gate and into the wall of the main building and were currently fighting against the odds with the sabbat. they were out numbered but they were holding there own. after doing a few laps around the court yard trying to find a parking space, we lept from the vehicle to join the battle which the brujah were already gaining the upper hand in. the battle was short and we had come out the victors.

after a quick body count i realized someone was missing.burton was no where to be found. i inquired where he had gone and McEnzee gestured to the cab. i looked inside to find that jack had not survived the crash, but atleast he took six of the bastards down with him.

we proceded to enter the front door where we were surprised by a whole pack of ninja. they fought hard but they where no match for us the brujah were high on meth and bob and i were in a blood rage. we tore throught the ninja like a catholic priest through an alter boys asshole. oh how i miss my days as an alter boy....er....uh....lets skip ahead.

i'm going to jump ahead to the part when the sarge nearly blew up half the war party. the explosion was massive. (i dont know how he got his hands on a sub atomic nuke, but he did it.) to our surprise the don johnson beast stepped out from the flames seamingly unaffected. the majority of the war party charged it. the rest were attacked by a lasombra and an assamite. seeing that everybody was preoccupied with the fodder i went after the real threat, there was a malkavian anti-tribu in the back unleashing some psychological warfare. i managed to catch her off guard and made short work of her. just as finished her off i looked up to see vernon crumble to ash at the hands of don johnson. i charged the beast. unleashing a terrifying battle cry i burried my axe into the beast in an attempt to avenge my fallen friend. it recoiled in pain from the power of my blow and McEnzee took advantage of the opening to finish off the foul creature.

we lost three kindred during this raid. all of which are members of clan brujah.

jack burton, duncan mctierdan, and vernon peabody all fell while fighting the sabbat. they were valiant warriors who fought the sabbat in the name of city and most of all the camarilla. they died fighting for us and we owe them our respect and gratitude.

to all those who fought with us to the end and even those who escaped because their wounds were to great. thankyou and im proud of all of you.

to those who didnt fight, i still extend my thanks to you i'm sure all of you contributed in your own ways.

so now that the sabbat are gone we can commence fighting amongst ourselves.

dr prince orrano has declared the castle as elysium. except for the tower which is mine.
