History
Bertrand has history in Armidale with a long period of absence.
1870-1910: Newly embraced in Armidale, kept a low profile, silently watched and learned from other Kindred, not active in court except when called.
1911-1923: Known in the Kindred community as 'Bloody Bert', who would commit acts of horrific violence on behalf of others for minor boons.
1939: Falls out of favour with the court over suspected but unproven links to violent masquerade breaches. He is told to leave Armidale before the investigation finishes and does as directed.
1940-1952: Is believed to have been inhabiting the wilderness in the Hunter Valley region, preying on humans and animals alike.
1952-1980: In torpor.
1980-1999: In seclusion from other Kindred, claims to have learned to restrain his beast through a combination of meditation and vigorous physical martial-arts training during this period.
2000-2008: Kindred of no fixed abode, surviving on the fringes of society and narrowly avoiding final death by the strange creatures that inhabit the world. This period ends when animal blood will no longer sustain Bertrand, but he is unwilling to enter torpor again.
2008-2013: Returned to the Armidale region claiming to be a remade man. Apparently very different mindset and demeanor than before, only betraying his past when forced to anger. Became involved in Invictus politicking and rose to Gangrel Priscus though natural leadership and application of superior force.
Quotes
"I don't DO that anymore." - response to being questioned about specifics of his past
"Just because I don't do that anymore doesn't mean I won't rip out your eyes and yank out your tongue. I'll leave you alive so we can both appreciate it." - response to claims he's gone soft
"Mr Hills is a sublime example of redemption; a self-made predator that still clawed himself back from the brink of annihilation." - Esteban Cortes
"Hmmmmmmmmmmm...." - Aksel Vinter
"Mr Hills is a kindred reputedly so entwined with his beast he struggles to distinguish himself from it. Perhaps this is why he is so insistent in trying to separate himself from it by dressing himself in the suits to remind himself to not be the beast. Then again perhaps it is this very connection that made him suitable to be Gangrel Priscus." Sergei Ravanov

OOC info
Bertrand has a well kept haven, but never sleeps there, instead preferring natural dirt to meld with. His retainers keep his haven well cleaned and ready for use and 'lived-in', should the need arise.
