Template:PC Summary Requiem

Many faces to all, Ferdinand often appears to mortals as the well dressed businessman or the young casually dressed technology aware entrepreneur. On only the most rarest occasion he has been the blood thirsty slaughterer, but what do you expect from years of suppression.

Something changed in Ferdinand during the early 2000's, while in the past he has been overly composed and much the same when dealing with mortals and kindred there is now a overwhelming contrast. To the kindred his humanity faded last century, while mortals get a new and enthusiastic persona.

Forever the businessman he rarely has any Vampires who he meets with outside of Court matters, with the exception being those of The Clan and his direct lineage. Even when dealing with members of his own clan and covenant a distance is maintained.

Very few had seen his true form till the start of the century, when he would come to courts without undergoing his ritualistic preparations. It is unknown to most why he chooses to attend Court 'natural' at times, but when he does the difference is more than just appearance.

CHARACTER IN DEVELOPMENT FOR 2013 RESET

Personal Information

Ferdinand (or Ferd for short) deals a great deal with mortals and their societies. Constantly infiltrating parts of the mortal world, usually at the request of others, he anchors himself or others to develop their control. Wherever he travels he has a knack of knowing who to talk to in order to get something done. He does not seem to care about the clan, covenant, associations or religious beliefs of others when he works, though he often favours his own clan and covenant.

There is a limit on the level of interaction a vampire will have with mortals and mortal society, Ferdinand breaches this normal comfort barrier and embraces the mortal society. Extravagant parties and living the high life is only a small part of what he wants, working with everything further down the social ladder till scrapping the bottom of mortal society. He does not see them as food, something that needs to be scared or beneath association. He works outside of what normal vampires do, letting others excel in their own relationships with mortals and their world, usually to the detriment of the mortals.

He takes his Carthian Experiments seriously, but for him they are most often business ventures trying different models through which a kindred can influence or infiltrate mortal society. The business ventures are often in a key or booming industry, allowing him the chance to understand the sector and grow into others. When the venture has become a success or failure he will cease his involvement, either closing or selling the business before starting another.

transhumanist empire builder. interested in advancing humans as he sees vampires are too far superior, then they are closer then the Masquerade can be lifted. believes that the most inhumane must lead the kindred, like the most humane must lead the humans. Focusing on technology and government related influences, and social over physical.

Appearance

His appearance amongst the courts varies, though usually he downplays his outfits wearing sensible comfortable street attire or whatever best blends into the local area, leaving extravagance for the mortal world when it demands. The peak of commonly available technology is usually at his finger tips, leading him to carrying a number of phones and wireless devices.

Personality

In order to cope with the fractured world Ferdinand has worked on splitting himself into separate entities, each suitable for the world in which they reside. Each entity arose from a need to exist in a world separate from the others.
The Body - is kept for dealing with Kindred under Ferdinand Wolfe.
The Humanity - is kept for dealing with mortals under many aliases.
The Mind - resides in the internet usually under the alias of NAND.
The Beast - is suppressed most of the time, released when required and often refereed to as The Wolf.

Code

Masquerade - Vampires are different to humans, we hunt them for our own survival and they would hunt us out of fear. When vampires and humans are equal one can know the other, but we are far from this time.
Humans - Humans are inferior to Vampires on a whole, but they are a source of sustenance to many. Humans should be nurtured to advance to a higher level, when this nurturing is in the control of Vampires we can ensure that there are equalising weaknesses.
Vampires - Vampires are superior to Humans on a whole, but this superiority should only be taken with its weakness, the most important of this is daylight.
Society - All Vampires deserve equality, to each as they require. The individual can only prosper when society prospers.
Leadership - Where the most humane should lead the humans the most in-humane should lead the Vampires. The leader should know their beast but be in control of it. A Governor is a leader of the people and must work with the people for the people.
Individuals - The one is part of the whole, where the actions of the one affects the whole. Any actions taken are the responsibility of the one performing and the ones knowing what is occurring.
Religion - Our religious belief is for ourselves and those who share a similar belief. Religion has no place in politics or with those who do not share those beliefs.
Killing - Killing of vampires, humans or animals should only be done when required for survival. Death is natural, but not for Vampires, who do not need to die. Vampires are superior to humans as they do not need to kill to survive, only taking from an easily replenishing supply.
Boons - A Vampires word is their bond, to enforce this boons should be registered. Without boons our society
Status - Those who have excelled or shown great dedication are recognised for their actions. They are not any more important than any other, but their words, for the subject matter for which they are revered, carry more weight than others.

Mortal World

Most mortals know him by whatever name he gives when they meet, rarely meeting the same people twice under the same identity he changes to suit the audience. He often gets into discussions by citing associates or friends, who are sometimes past identities taken by Ferdinand, taking advantage of others unwillingness to raise suspension of their own connections, memory or wealth.

Away from personal contact he often maintains relationships with those he has met as required via email, messaging and phone. On rare occasions he will meet with people as Ferdinand, hiding only his true nature, except of course for those eyes.

Other than his real identity, his only consistent identity, is that of NAND, his internet alias or handle which is far from unique. In the past it has been linked to a number of internet based attacks, but given its prevalence and precautions taken no action has been taken.

" This is the face I put on for the mortal world, hiding something much more sinister than most. I tried walking the world on the edge of a coin, now I try and choose which side that suits my purpose. One day I wont need to worry about the coin, when the humans are our equal, but we are far from that day." - To Mr Hobbes about walking amongst the mortals.

"Brilliant, you're a big bad monster who can scare a man in to handing over his wallet. Aren't we all. Now let's try the gentle approach and we will intercept funds before they reach his wallet. This will provide a trickle of funds that will amount to a greater reward with reduced risks and you won't even notice my cut. Should the results be undesirable then we look to the beast within for an answer." - Ferdinand Wolfe (1980's) when persuading a fellow clan member to take the gentle approach first.
