Personal Information
Vishakhadatta values propriety, manners, etiquette and the Camarilla; though not necessarily in that order. Having survived the trials of his Neonate years, he values perseverance and commitment. He has been trained in the recent decades, to be a Court Officer; growing the skills and facility to navigate the complex relationships of the Camarilla as well as understanding the tools at his disposal in whichever Station he may occupy.
While he is referred to occasionally as Manager, those Ventrue doing so rarely can be drawn on what it is Vishakhadatta is responsible for. To the observer he seems like a facilitator, a fixer in the modern vulgar argot. He clearly has a talent for identifying the issues at hand, what skills might be applied to the situation and who holds those needed skills. While he may assist in the resolution, he rarely seems to take an active hand himself.
Appearance
A tall Kindred of solid build, he favours dark suits and business-like attire. he nearly always carries a ledger with him and a writing instrument.
Personality
Vishakhadatta is a social Kindred; he is frequently seen conversing with a wide cross-section of Court. When he acts, or communicates with those around him, he uses an elegant economy of expression. Occasionally he consults colourful spreadsheets, written meticulously by hand in a flowing script unfamiliar to most Kindred.
Mortal World
As CEO of Coldex P/L, he is known as Mr Murali Rajen, an Australian entrpreneur with diversified holdings. A private company, Mr Rajen holds the controlling interest in shares.
Mr Rajen appears as a well-dressed manager, he often seems to know more about people than they do about him.
Information Known by Kindred Society
Aloof and cool in his treatment of even his closest confidants, he has a piercing mind capable of teasing apart the knotty, nightly politics of the Camarilla. Thoroughly educated in the Traditions, the Protocols and the history of the Camarilla, he is a formidable opponent when it comes to Courtly intrigue.
