Personal Information

Theodore "Teddy" Donowitz is a law enforcing brute who likes to opperate just outside of the laws he enforces. While holding no official position within the city he has earned to honorary title / nickname of "The Stick" - when people misbehave and don't follow the rules he drags them outside to somewhere private and beats them until they learn their lesson. Keep the wheels turning and don't mess with the rules and you'll be lucky enough to avoid the Stick, start causing trouble however and you'll be picking your fangs up out of the gutter.

Appearance

Despite his reputation as a violent, bloodthirsty Brujah his image does not live up to his reputation; Teddy is rather small and wiry and suprisingly well groomed. He often dresses in his signature navy blue suit with a black under shirt and blood red neck tie, sometimes topping it off with a fedora or leather driving gloves.
Despite his clean cut appearance he is almost never seen without his trademark baseball bat which all the important members of the court have personally signed.

Personality

Teddy is a self-acknowledged 'malicious shit-head', he honestly enjoys nothing more than outright brutality and beating people senseless. At the same time however, he does not go around hitting people without reason, he ensures people make mistakes and break the rules before he acts to beat them into submission to put them back in their place.
He likes order and loves it when things run smoothly and if things don't go as they should he'll strike down anyone causing problems and spreading chaos with a smile on his face.

Mortal World

While all the kindred are messing around with the mortal world, Teddy is there fixing up mistakes and ensuring the the wheel keeps turninng. He's got his fingers into the Unions and Criminals and makes sure they keep doing what must be done, the Unions don't strike and the Criminals stick to their own areas without expanding into other peoples domains.

Known Associations

Allies

The "Beauty" part of the Power Trio to Teddy's "Brawn". He and Iadro have worked together for years to uphold the Masquerade and keep the city running smoothly.

The "Brains" part of the Power Trio. Despite their extreme differences they are surprisingly close friends and united on most issues, together they held keep the city running.

Differences in Clan make little difference to these two. Teddy has loyaly helped and served Armand for well over a hundred years and Armand is a guiding force for Teddy.

His first Childer and a son he can be proud of. While different he respects Barnett and is happy with the way he's going in his unlife.

The second youngest of Teddy's childer and a man just like his father. Aaron's the kind of son you can drink a beer with, you fishing and maybe slaughter a few gangsters.

Crazy little bitch but she's still Karl's childer and she works real useful like a hand-grenade against the Sabbat

Enemies

The ideal love-hate relationship. Teddy loves order but more than that he loves beating people back into order, Jacqueline certainly provides him with plenty of the later. She's always ruining his smoothly running courts and he's always dragging her outside for a bit of brutality.

Three seconds flat...how long Teddy promised it would take to kill Ronan. He kept that promise.

An obstacle at every step of the way who does nothing but hamper the court and give the Sabbat more power. Teddy will have fun watching him burn when the time comes.

Teddy doesn't give a shit what everyone else keeps telling him, she's a mother fucking Sabbat member. She was with a Sabbat pack raiding a Brujah haven when he caught her. No matter what the arrogant and foolish Elders think...Teddy will one day be the one to kill her.

Other

On one hand she embraced him, brought him into the Camarilla and gave him purpose after he'd lost everything, on the other hand she's a right treacherous bitch who jumped ship and joined the Sabbat. He won't hunt her down and he won't wish her harm but should they ever meet in person, there will be bloodshed and one of them will likely end up dead.

She sits right on the border of being an actual enemy to Teddy. He doesn't see her as a legitimate threat in any way but she's bound to get into trouble that he'll have to clean up and he knows it's only a matter of time before he starts swinging a bat at her head.

Once a massive pain in his side...and still kind of a pain. However she's starting to prove herself useful and might have potential if he cna break the poor lessons of her upbringings.

  • Silke - Anarch, supposedly Ventrue, rumoured to be Ancilla
