Personal Information

From the dark, mouldy, festering warrens underneath Brisbane comes.... SCABS! Huggable, loveable, and undeniably sexy in that "Oh my God what is that" way, Scabs is from first appearances your typical Nosferatu. Friendly, humorous, annoying, contagious - all fine words to explain this force of sexual nature.

Appearance

When not impersonating someone, or hiding behind a disguise, Scabs is a hunched over creature who constantly 'peaks' his fingers, as if in thought, or coming up with something nasty to do. His face is covered with bruising which never seems to heal, otherwise masking a strange 'goblin-like' visage. Overall, a definite chick magnet.

Personality

Scabs enjoys life (unlife) with flair, taking advantage in the upgrades to technology he has watched over the last... well. Always happy to have a chat about any topic, with anyone, he is from all appearances someone who enjoys bringing people together and having a good ol time. Can sometimes be socially inappropriate, but never to hurt others - someone needs to play the jester. And no-one suspects the jester...

Mortal World

'IBSCABS' is a very well known internet 'hacker', known for defacing the websites of varied groups such as the 'Mums for Jesus' (now Mums burn Jesus), and 'Pennsylvania Police Protection Patrol ('Pretentious Prats Porking Poodles). Experts have not been able to remove or change the websites, which now provide hours of enjoyment for 12-15 year olds

Information Known by Kindred Society

Most know Scabs from his exploits on the Telstra tower, and his subsequent 'capture' by Scotty and introduction to the Camarilla. Whilst he is outgoing and gregarious, little is actually known about his background and skills, apart from his excellent computer skills and skill with Obfuscate and Animalism. Scabs is also a wealth of 'gossip', tending to know who is making stuff up about who, and most important of all, if it is funny. Despite his high generation and strange demeanour, he is highly regarded in Kindred circles, both as a lesser Harpy, but as a useful provider of information and services - for a reasonable price.
