Personal Information
Appearance
Esteban Cortes is tall for a Kindred of his years, standing over 6 feet tall. The Embrace mitigated physical imperfections caused drugs and malnutrition before they had sent him into serious decline. He has intense, dark eyes, sharp features and prefers to keep his hair cut short. The years have lent a feral cast on his features; a self-inflicted vertical scar extends from his bottom lip to his neck as a reminder of encounters in nights gone by. Softly spoken, Cortes carries himself with an antiquated dignity and grace, equally comfortable attending a Harpy’s ball or amongst the catacombs of a dilapidated necropolis.
Personality
Esteban Cortes is a Kindred of calm, welcoming demeanour with inky black eyes that belie an empathic and patient disposition. He is inquisitive, conversational and for half a century endeavoured to serve the Nosferatu clan in New England.
Mortal World
Cortes maintains a steady contact with the mortal world, primarily through a small network of retainers, their local friends and family in an effort to keep his sanity and not let the Beast detach him from reality.
