Brisbane Camarilla Harpy Report

Greetings and Salutations Ancillae Voce, Influential Master Harpy of the Brisbane Court,

I submit for your pleasure and discernment, the observations of the Brisbane Montgomery Court, as witnessed by myself Mr Felix Parker of the Clan of Lunatics on the 14th of March 2015.

The court was hosted by the Luminescent La Belle Dame d'Lumiere, Venerated Elder of Clan Toreador as an evening of quiet solace and comfort by at the Old Elysium, The Old Museum, Spring Hill, before it was rudely interrupted by a fire alarm that caused the hasty evacuation of the site. The court was moved to the Brisbane Club and concluded there.

New Members at Court

The March court was graced by several new faces, none of whom were formally Acknowledged by announcement due to the exceedingly inconvenient evacuation. As there were a large number of guests, foreign to the Court, I must ask for the indulgence of understanding. No insult is intended by any misspelling of name or use of improper title. Corrections will be made to my records, as they are submitted. The new members awaiting formal recognition within the Brisbane Court are:

Rumours, Lies and Slander

For the discerning and influential Master Harpy to consider what constitutes scandal, listed from most creditable to least. Those that have been refuted by their betters have been noted.

1. It may not be scandalous in the form of the gathering being disrupted by the fire alarm, but it might if it was deliberate....
2. Did an office bearer attempted to have another assassinated, and was found out?? Good alibi, poor execution, worse secrecy.
3. It's possible that it may be a lie to destabilise the situation.
4. Certain people deem that the nature of their office permits them to ignore the Prince's wishes for how certain Traditions should be enforced.
5. Certain people deem that they need not mention their Sire, or where they were previously acknowledged if at all anywhere, of course they are loyal Camarilla members… just without anyone to vouch for them beyond last month.
6. A certain potential caitiff, did deliberately against the wishes of their betters drag a childe of the courts and expose them to the unwashed Anarchs... don't come back anytime soon.
7. Most people do not offer respect to their betters, but rather only to the people they are afraid of...
8. At least one member of the court in a position of power should really reconsider why they broke their word to an Elder… tisk tisk
9. Some are born to power, some achieve it, and others drape themselves over those that have it, as if by greated skin contact the power will suffuse through…..
10. Refuted rumor Questioning one's betters without evidence (Please refer to the enclosed confidential list for further detail)
