Personal Information
Appearance
Standing at 195 cms (6'5") and solidly built Andrew Blackthorne is quite noticeable in a crowd. Descended from old money he was raised to believe a suit should always be worn unless you have a reason not to.
He has piercing blue eyes that change colour with his mood. Short brown hair gives him a conservative look. During life he sometimes wore glasses and he has been known to do that if trying to give a more learned impression.
He is rarely seen without his stick. It is not needed to aid walking and not an effective weapon. What is known is he offered it as his personal item during the Ritual of the Chain at his Carthian induction.
Personality
That isn't for Andrew to judge. Feel free to add what other characters perceive of his personality......
- Evrae thinks he seems friendly enough, definitely approachable, not as intimidating as he looks. Good decision maker.

OOC Information
Andrew spends a reasonable amount of time in the CBD, especially weekends. He loves art and the theater as well as socializing with kine. If you have a chance to observe him hunt, for pleasure rather than necessity, then you will see he favors kine who are enthusiastic and excited about their lives, particularly women who he then seduces. So if you ever want to have your character bump into him for a chat I (and he) am more than happy to do so either Facebook or by my email in my member box.
Andrew has a specialty in gossip and as a budding politician knows that there is never a reason to alienate someone if you don't have to so he is friendly to any Kindred that talk to him no matter how different their views are. He loves to discuss politics and learn about people both in general and the specific.
He expects to one day end up Prince, but is in no rush being young, and being the Kindred with no enemies and having aided most people can't be a bad thing. As part of that he is currently being quite free with boons as he settles in. His logic, beyond that if he owes most kindred at least a trivial boon no one will dare end him, is that by helping people he both learns about them and how to eventually manipulate them but also proves his own expertise..... after all how is everyone supposed to know you are the one to rule them if they never call on you sort out their problems....
