History
Pre-European Era: Known as little more than legends told by the Nyoongar people of the South West of Western Australia, knowledge of Kindred in Perth prior to European Settlement is sketchy at best. Rumours occasionally surface of potent Kindred that stalk the desert nights as cultivated lands give way to rugged, wild terrain.
First European Exploration:
The earliest nights of European Kindred exploration were bloody and violent affairs. Most who ventured onto the ships travelling to the new land were running from something, or had something to hide. Desperate Kindred who were met by the fierce territoriality of the Native Kindred seldom survived the encounters, many meeting their Final Death. Those that survived were viewed with disdain as squalor dwelling filth as they hid in early makeshift settlements.
Early Colonization Era:
As the Swan River Colony began to grow, the numbers of European Kindred also began to increase - albeit more slowly. Conflicts with Native Kindred still tended to be violent and favour the resident Kindred but as the native human populations began to be pushed further outwards so a foothold was established and the Courts of Europe and the Americas began to take note.
Establishment of the City of Perth:
In the late 1800’s, the city’s mortal population was large enough to support a sizable number of kindred. The few crafty (or cowardly) vampires that had gained a foothold in the city’s early years were able to come out of hiding, whilst new blood arrived every year from Fremantle Harbour with the influx of mortals flooding into the area in search of gold. And so the city, having grown large enough to shield the kindred from the perils of an untamed land, began to take on a new, but all too familiar menace, in the guise of Kindred civility. The All Night Society had gathered; a court had formed.
Recent History: Pre-World War I: In the early 1900s the city grew steadily, the young Court beginning to flourish with the opportunities presented. The Kindred Court grew, and the city's first Elysium was established at the University of Western Australia. Control the of the Court is largely held by an Invictus Prince under the guidance of Wilburforce Roe throughout the period.
Wartime and the Depression: A time of unrest for many of the mortal inhabitants, this period marked an increase in the Kindred population and increasing communication with the Courts of the East Coast. The high numbers of unemployed men during the Depression see a spike in the number of Hunter incidents
Post-war Era: A large influx of European migrants to Perth following the end of World War II saw many new Kindred moving in to the city. With them came many new ideas and faiths, with the Circle of the Crone beginning to rise to prominence within the previously Lancea et Sanctum and Invictus dominated city. The Carthian Movement began to gain a foothold following the collapse of the Seed of Bones cult and grew steadily in prominence.
The First Strix War: In 1975, the Owls came. The Kindred's most terrible and hated enemy, the Birds of Dis, attacked and threw the city into chaos.
