Description

Seen by many as a proud monster, that is who Deaglán Síl Aedha Eaniagh in many ways is. Having walked this earth since the mid 3rd Century, he has walked from faith, into fire, and back into faith again.

A powerful member of Clan Lasombra, Deaglán has kept many parts about him secret, preferring to act as an enigma when possible. Having set up his base of operations within San Diego he will not give up what he has built.

A proud Irishman, and even prouder Lasombra. Deaglán never followed his clan down what he perceived as a path of destruction that would only lead to their ruin in the Sabbat. Instead he held true to the ideals of the High Clan they once were and has sought every night to rebuild that power and glory that they once had.
