This coterie represents the elite of the Ivory Tower, the most high-ranking members of the City's Camarilla establishment. These Kindred are the domain’s most powerful coterie. Though they don't often see eye to eye and rarely act in concert, when they do, they can truly move mountains. 

The Courtiers are allied with The Love Disciples and oppose the Crown of Thorns. They have assembled at the salon to oversee the affairs of state and test the worthiness of petitioners and candidates for the embrace. 

Britt, Nosferatu Ghoul, Herald
Britt is the keeper of the domain’s boons, a ghoul of centuries, using an exacting facade to follow a long plan with catastrophic implications. Driven by their need to bring back what they miss most, their last dance is all about trying to unleash who everyone is afraid of. 

Dominique, Ventrue Elder, Prince

Endymion, Gangrel Elder, Sheriff

Frances, Toreador Elder, Primogen

Gale, Ventrue Ghoul
Gale is a young hopeful, a recently blooded ghoul, new and quite naive to the power games and mendacity of the Kindred, romanticising Kindred existence. Driven by their dream to experience freedom, their last dance is all about a desperate climb before a bottomless fall. 

Harley, Ventrue Ghoul, Seneschal

Nicola, Nosferatu Elder, Primogen
Nicola, a peacock baroque horror, refuses to hide who and what they are, taking pride in a nature others would find foul, letting their devilry take centre stage. Driven by their dream to never be denied again, their last dance is all about trying to make others obey their whims. 

Uaine, Ventrue Ghoul

Wynne, Tremere Elder, Primogen
Wynne, studious and introspective, guards their many secrets from ambitious upstarts and suspicious loyalists, trying to keep up with many threats. Driven by their desire for ascendance, their last dance is all about trying to make a difference for those they teach and protect.

This coterie is a complex polycule of hyper-competent and very ambitious hotshots who, while totally loyal to the Camarilla, nevertheless make the reigning elite nervous regarding the agenda hidden behind being extremely useful and nigh-indispensable. 

Together, they have a lot of social capital, as they can move among the upper and lower echelons of Kindred society with ease. They can make anything happen, for a price. There are many who already see this coterie as the future rulers of the City. 

The Bright Young Things are allied with Sound and Fury and oppose the Emerald Bacchanal. They have assembled at the salon to be the facilitators of potential embraces, ensuring the debts of many.

Camille, Toreador Ancilla

Kimberly, Tremere Ancilla
Kimberly is one of the original members of the coterie who started their life as a trust-fund socialite seeking freedom in the excesses of the flapper movement. Driven by their need to keep their loved ones close, their last dance is all about conflicted loyalties and deals with the devil.

Tate, Toreador Ghoul
Tate is the servant of the chaotically entangled coterie. They have seen centuries of excess pass and cleaned up every mess, waiting for their chance. Driven by a secret, long-repressed purpose, their last dance is all about the true and dreadful power a caretaker has. 

The Kindred who make up the theatre company Sound and Fury, are part performance-art troupe, part harpies' council. Constantly squabbling with each other over personal matters and creative differences, they are surprisingly effective when they come together to hold a mirror up to Kindred society. They get away with an awful lot of very vocal criticism, because they never fail to entertain. Their words cut deep and many have noticed that they possess far too much personal knowledge about the Kindred. 

Rumour has it they have a powerful patron who is using them as a tool for propaganda but they only say that they follow their artistic vision wherever it leads them. No matter who’s behind them, who doesn't put great stock in their opinion is next on their social hit list. 

Sound and Fury are allied with the Bright Young Things and oppose the Red Smile. They have assembled at the salon to present their newest play, a provocative piece that may bring down polite society.

Andel, Toreador Ghoul
Andel is a mysteriously independent ghoul who has seen centuries pass; a charming and conciliatory stage manager and mediator. Driven by their desire to solve a murder most foul, their last dance is all about broken hearts and revenge. 

Ashley, Gangrel Neonate
Ashley is the rising starlet of the troupe, eager to prove an effective harpy. Seeking to step out of the shadows of their rivals, they fight tooth and nail to claim fame. Driven by their desire to come out on top, their last dance is all about burning bright before burning out.

Oda, Nosferatu Neonate
Oda is a social chameleon who usually plays the chorus on- and offstage. Having perfected the art of being everyone's friend, they use manipulation for a higher mission. Driven by their knowledge of dangerous truths, their last dance is all about saving who they can. 

Shay, Gangrel Ghoul
Shay, an actor used to conning their way to success, has seen a set of wrong choices lead them to ghoul existence. Driven by their desire to earn freedom by playing several Kindred against each other, their last dance is all about dangerous games with the hearts of monsters. 

Tru, Malkavian Ghoul
Tru is the beleaguered production designer and devoted companion of Joyce. Driven by their desire to find some happiness of their own without having to feel guilty, their last dance is all about frail hopes and bloody consequences. 

Masterminds of the city's increasing gentrification and restructuring, these Kindred control various fraternal lodges and other secret societies in the mortal world, engaging in the mystical arts of geomancy and weaponized city planning. What goal they all work towards no one knows but they are extremely efficient and useful protectors of the Masquerade and respect the Prince’s rule. Their Objectivist philosophies and use of dark arts for self-improvement make them suspicious in the eyes of many. 

The Sacred Architects are allied with The Emerald Bacchanal and oppose the Love Disciples. They have assembled at the salon to warn of their findings and call in favours to protect what they have built.

Evelyn, Tremere Neonate
Evelyn is a long-standing member of the coterie. Once a brilliant psychoanalyst, their life took a dark turn, when therapy revealed the Masquerade. Driven by their need to serve the designs of their obsessed sire, their last dance is all about realising what they have had to do.

Valentine, Tremere Ghoul
Valentine is a ghoul and yet the recent leader of the coterie. This supposed Golden Child is a controlling, vain, and self-serving individual, bending the resources at their behest towards their own exaltation. Driven by their need to survive, their last dance is all about deception. 

The upper class coteries are directly opposed by this voice of the oppressed, a powerful union of like-minded Kindred that is but a thinly disguised Anarch gang, espousing a philosophy of social reform, status-blind justice and redistribution of power. 

The coterie have gone toe to toe with many establishments types, always careful to stay just this side of the Prince's laws, while constantly pushing the boundaries. Rumours abound that the Crown of Thorns must have some sort of long-term agenda they have not yet revealed. 

The Crown of Thorns are allied with The Red Smile and oppose the Courtiers. They have assembled at the salon to condemn the hypocrisy of past era and judge those who would seek to embrace, now.

Chelsea, Brujah Ghoul
Chelsea is a small-time crook who got into the world of the Kindred through the wrong kind of kindness. Many see them only as a baby Anarch, eager to fit in. Driven by desires far deeper and darker, their last dance is all about the consequences of living a double life.

Erin, Gangrel Elder
Erin is the coterie leader, a proud Anarch hiding a dark past. They are fiercely protective of their flock but quite lost concerning their own identity and the way forward. Driven by conflicting loyalties, their last dance is all about taking a stand.

Robin, Brujah Neonate
Robin is a loyal member of the coterie and a staunch Anarch, trying to do good with often questionable methods or outcomes. Driven by a desire to bring change, their last dance is all about starting a fire they have no way of controlling. 

Sasha, Toreador Neonate
Sasha, while an Anarch, is dissatisfied with the realities of the Eternal Struggle and seeks to placate their compatriots’ more violent solutions. Driven by a desire to do the right thing, their last dance is all about trying to keep others safe in the face of violence and injustice. 

Others would call them pimps and pushers, abusers and slavers, but the members of this coterie would describe themselves as purveyors of fine wares and choice vintages. They can get you anything that will get you high and make you forget. Some are disgusted with their offerings, but many will at least discreetly seek their services. They do not care for their reputation. They know that what they deal in will always be in demand. 

The Emerald Bacchanal are allied with The Sacred Architects and oppose the Bright Young Things. They have assembled at the salon to provide blood and pleasure to the guests, seeking to improve their lot with the powerful.

Avery, Ventrue Ancilla
Avery is a founding member, a once gentle soul corrupted, who now plies the dark trade of flesh and blood, catering to the most jaded of Kindred. Driven by their need to drown out their past decisions with present sins, their last dance is all about losing control of their narrative.

Page, Nosferatu Ancilla
Page is the coterie’s procurer, brainwashed from an innocent and deeply religious devotee to a merciless hunter of humans. Driven by their need to not be anyone’s tool anymore, their last dance is all about finding a way to get out or go out on their own terms.

Zenith, Malkavian Neonate
Zenith is a rather recent addition whose ability to perceive the hidden desires of others have helped them survive and find a new home after being abandoned. Driven by their need for closure, their last dance is all about finding the courage to confront their past. 

This coterie is a gang of carnies with a warped and wicked sense of humour who haunt the outskirts of the City. They put on disturbing performances which are a mixture of bloody grand-guignol theatre and sexually lurid Punch and Judy shows, drawing crowds which they feed from. 

They are the dregs of society, the lowest of the low and they have never taken part in any proceedings of the court before, though some high-born vampires may remember them as failed experiments of irresponsible young Camarilla Kindred who paid for their mistakes. 

The Red Smile are allied with The Crown of Thorns and oppose Sound and Fury. They have assembled at the salon to make their mark and confront a society that has failed to acknowledge them properly.

Finn, Toreador Ghoul

Timor, Nosferatu Neonate
Timor is the barker and unofficial coterie leader. A bit of an insecure edgelord, they relish the terror they spread. Driven by their self-serving delusions of grandeur, their last dance is all about keeping together the passion project that gives. 

Hardly anything is known about this hippiesque and cultish coterie, yet, as they are a fairly recent addition to the domain. They have a great pool of mortal followers and are openly recruiting Kindred members. Rumour has it that they arrived, travelling from another domain far away. 

Kindred would do well to be very careful around them but they seem to have a strangely enticing effect, especially on the young ones, with their message of self-actualization, forgiveness and awakening the inner divinity. For even stranger reasons, these weird Kindred have the Prince's favour. 

The Love Disciples are allied with The Courtiers and oppose The Sacred Architects. They have assembled at the salon to recruit new members and spread the gospel of love in the face of the end times.

Aubrey, Nosferatu Ghoul

Bailey, Malkavian Ghoul
Bailey is a ghoul whose altered state of mind is making them live in a constant state of  religious ecstasy. They are revered as an exemplar of the cult’s teachings. Driven by their desire for a heavenly marriage, their last dance is all about the price of bliss.

Valya, Malkavian Elder
The charismatic guru of a hippiesque cult attracting Camarilla dissidents to a more spiritual lifestyle has led many lives and accrued many secret sins. Driven by their desire for a rekindling of their own waning faith, their last dance is all about making love a reality again. 

There are persistent rumours that two ancient Kindred, known only as the Lord and the Lady, have existed in the shadows of the City forever. They are said to hate each other with an all-consuming fiery passion, the last embers of feeling in hearts otherwise dead and cold. 

They are whispered to be the great chess players in the Eternal Struggle, even Elders mere pawns to their unknowable whims. As countless heroes and villains have had their entrances and exits on the stage of Kindred politics, they have remained. They are as timeless as the City itself. Creatures so shrouded in mystique seldom act on their own. 

Both have their messengers, whom they send to do their bidding out in the world. They have extended the invitation to the salon for reasons known only to them.

Cennad, Nosferatu Ancilla
A creature of many masks, Cennad is by turns seen as a terrifying blood witch, a secret keeper, a devoted servant, and even a gentle protector. Driven by their need to right the terrible wrong they have committed, their last dance is all about what things they will do to bring back love.

Nunzio, Malkavian Ancilla
Nunzio is a silver-tongued and imposing manipulator switching between Luciferian accuser and Lokiesque confidante. Driven by their need to accelerate the breakdown, their last dance is all about adding fuel to the fire.

Not everyone has been upholding the laws of the Prince concerning the Embrace. Though most perpetrators have been found and executed or have vanished, never to be seen again, a number of vampires have been created illegitimately over the years. The Prince has often spared the unlives of these unfortunate souls, decreeing that they should not suffer for the sins of their sires.  

But while they were allowed to survive and stay, receiving basic instruction in the necessities of Kindred existence, without a lineage to their name, they have had no chance of currying favour, gaining status or becoming integrated with society. Banding together for protection while eager to seek their own path, they have assembled at the salon to seize their opportunity to finally prove their worth.

Bellamy, Caitiff Neonate

Mallory, Caitiff Neonate
Mallory is either an innocent, cast into a dark world, or an old soul exploring the memories of a past life that tie them to some of the darkest secrets of the City. Driven by their wish to solve the mystery of their existence, their last dance is all about finding grace in the gutter. 

Salem, Caitiff Neonate
Salem is an ex-con turned against their will. An embittered outcast, they found an animal instinct to guide them and a talent to affect others in strange ways that opened doors for them. Driven by their urge for survival, their last dance is all about going big or going home.
