Rumours

• Has earned the title "Sheriff China Princess Barnett the fragile".
  • Certain Kindred of the Brisbane Court would do well to remember Barnett taking 4 direct shotgun blasts in raid against Sabbat Ghouls in February of 2014, and seizing a Sabbat Member's Haven by force in July 2014. Certain Kindred of the Brisbane Court were curiously absent during both of these raids, mayhaps they are projecting their fragility?
