Eh, I'm going to say no, simply because neither faith is really big enough for that to work. Both make up minorities of the Vampiric population and both are rather cult-like and secretive.

Is it possible to create some kind of revolution against the Praetors' power though?

I suppose you could try, but I don't know if it would go well.

That's very different to the Children of Abraham rebellling. Yes it's possible, it's very unlikely any member of said revolution is still alive.

But surely it would be possible to RP a CoA zealot trying to get a religious war going?

You just have to be discreet. My character for all intents and purposes off'ed a Praetor, she just took care that her fingerprints weren't on the knife. :p

I know how you feel, I have been toying with the idea of listing the names of all vampires, PC or NPC, to keep track of things.

Is everybody supposed to be where Lev is currently or are we allowed to do our own thing?

The idea is that everyone is meant to be coming to Lev's house.

I'm not sure how my char would get an invite but I guess it either involves his maker being a former Quaestor or a mistake by the messenger

If he's been in Boston for a degree of time, his presence is probably known to other Vampires. Mortals typically won't notice signs of vampiric presence but most members of the Society would recognize that there was a new vampire in town and likely would have sought them out.

Boston is also a rather small place. It only had about 15,000 inhabitants at the time.

Forgot to ask this before, but do injuries from before vampires are embraced heal/disappear when they become vampires? Thinking about stuff like missing body parts, etc.

Quendi, sorry if I wasn't clear on it before, but I was under the impression that Genivieve had eschewed her french titles when she went to the new world. It's likely she would have been replaced in both positions by leaving her post by now anyways.

Well I did write that those where all former positions.

By the way you might want to add a link to the IC in the OP so its easy for people to locate it.

Sorry, the wording made it a bit confusing, all good.

Queue at the door. :p

If Titus doesn't want to talk to her that's fine but Geneviève will probably find it rather suspicious if another vampire is lurking on her.

Well, I didn't have Joseph say anything due to three things
1. He doesn't feel like talking to her is necessary and he wants to have the whole meeting thing done as fast as possible
2. I had no idea how to write it
3. Joseph would not be exactly comfortable talking to someone that is so obviously a noble due to his upbringing as a commoner and his slight fear that due to that his lack of knowledge of how the noble world functions and if the speaker somehow knew about his mortal life before becoming a vampire he would be ridiculed for it ( which is a very real possibility in the 18th century )

Fair enough. Geneviève wasn't born noble though (not titled nobility anyway) and spent her childhood in an upper middle class family. Her present claim to noble titles is also a little dubious as it was achieved through false testimony, and as the French court no doubt consider her line extinct. But of course she looks the part.

But I don't see why vampires would look down upon one another based on their human lives. If anything if my character knew yours she would dislike him for his high status as the valued creation of a quaestor as opposed to her own more humble introduction to vampiric life.

Possibly, but, please note Joseph is still a very young vampire by vampiric terms ( less than 50 years as a vampire ) so I would imagine he is liable to think in human terms over vampiric ones
