Vampire: The Masquerade — Bloodlines 2 — The Camarilla

Seattle is home to a technology industry and business community both incredibly profitable and the Camarilla certainly benefited. Led by Prince the Cross, in the last 20 years, this faction has helped promote this community and lead the financial success of the city in the 21^st century. Deeply rooted in the business community of Seattle, the Camarilla count in its ranks CEOs, tycoons of the software, bankers, venture capitalists, politicians, and other members of the elite of the society. This is a faction of Kindred which imposes its influence not only in the narrow alleys of dark streets, but also in the meeting rooms of the great skyscrapers of the city.

“Contrary to what you might think, I enjoy having enemies. It makes me… careful — keeps me creative. There’s not much of a future for complacent rulers.” — Alec Cross

This is in part due to the rules of equity, the business sense, and organizational skills to Prince Cross. The Prince is skilled in forging alliances important, but also in knowing how much power to give to the vampires to keep them at ease, but unable to rebel against him. A ruler who prefers negotiations and careful strategy than brute force and violence, its policy is based on stability, prosperity, and the maintenance of the Masquerade.

At this point, keeping control is the main goal for Prince Cross and the Camarilla. While other communities of Kindred have suffered in other cities in the last ten years, Prince Cross has helped the vampires of Seattle to thrive. If the Prince manages to keep the pace and to gain a greater foothold in the power structure of the city, could capture the attention of older people in the upper echelons of the Camarilla.
