Personal Information

On the eve of my Bar Mitzvah my parents spoke " Isaac you are soon to be recognized by our people as a man. As you are aware our family lineage is passed through the mother to each child. Your mother is of the line of Iscariot. This means you are of the line of Iscariot. Iscariot's are forbidden to ever touch silver. Should you ever touch silver you will be afflicted with your ancestors curse." Iscariot's 30 pieces keep coming back to haunt his descendants. Live long enough and ever becomes impossible. My coin I forged into a ring, but I know it will be a coin after me; as always. I am damned, not as a Lancea Sanctum but for my mortal bloodline; but maybe it's fair; we did betray the son of God.

Personality

Uncomfortably drawn to Kindred Society

Practices Judaism

Underwhelming history within the Invictus.

Strach Na Wróble

     The invasion by the Teutonic Order of Poland in 1326 was just another victory waiting to happen Western Ventrue envisaged.
     In hindsight it was hubris to not just leave those woods alone after locals had spoken of a scary man.
     So they sent their beasts, some came back useless and broken; so they sent their men and none came back.

     Time would have taken its toll and Isaac Iscariot wanderings alone in the Polish Forrests, 
     Preying on the local Pagan Kindred and slowly falling to the beast and maybe Torpor would have been a natural end. 
     This Beast, this Bestial Wanton Competitive Beast was in its element and they just kept giving reasons to stay awake.

     You would be hard pressed to find a Ventrue that would admit to prompting a Gangrel bloodline, but they did.

    The locals just called him Strach Na Wróble, and at first he thought it felt rather underwhelming but Scarecrow grew on him.

    Isaac could feel the malaise in his Vitae and never Embraced. But Avising felt a natural progression.
    
    Disciplines Protean, Resilience, Celerity and Nightmare.

    In addition to the Gangrel Clan Bane Strach Na Wróble also manifest Hated By Beasts.
