Backstage

Born in the early 1900s, under a far different name, Randall was born into a Vaudeville family. His parents were performers on the East Coast circuit, never really settling down in one location. He learned at an early age how to work a crowd, shine on people, and generally acting the grifter.

As his showmanship and talents refined over time, he became more and more enamored with the idea of becoming a stage personality. Before his dreams could become reality, he was Embraced. His life changed, of course - the new Kindred scrambling to get his feet under him as an Unaligned Ravnos.

The world stands still for no man, and Randall was constantly changing up his needs and skills - settling more recently on his contacts with the mortal world. Now, with the Ravnos attaching to the Independent Alliance, he is settled enough to look towards his dreams again.

The spotlight as a renowned magician.

Fate has a way of putting him in the right place at the wrong time - failing upwards seems to be a trend for the young man.

Timeline
Note: While the timeline is presented here - it is not necessarily general in-character knowledge. It is to help establish role-playing ties with other players.
When in doubt, please contact me to determine what may or may not be known.

  • 1903 - Born on the Lower East side in the slums of New York
  • 1938 - Embraced

  • 2011 - Independent Alliance forms
  • 2017 - Ravnos join the Independent Alliance

Possible Roleplay Ties

  • Childer/Descendents - I’m very hesitant to to having childer, grandchilder and so on. Mostly due to his age and beliefs. That said, if you've got a idea, pitch it to me.
  • Magic - By trade, Randall is a stage magician - born into the life of the entertainer.
  • Rroma - Randall has blood ties to the Rroma, his family another generation of the sturdy folk.
  • Traveler - He roamed quite a bit prior to settling down in Phoenix.
  • Lovers - He is a man about passions - romance being one of them.
  • Rivals - It is without a doubt that he's tweaked noses in the past.
  • Miscellaneous - If you have other ideas, I'm open to hearing them.

The Crew

Sweet Little Lies

  • His shows rely solely upon powers of the Blood.
  • Randall doesn't know a lick of the illusion powers of his Clan.
  • Has his fingers deep into the affairs of the Kine.
  • Secretly an underworld kingpin.
  • Paid his way into his career - has no real knack for magic.
