Aoife Kennedy
Further Information
Aoife appears to be a woman of medium height and build and her age is not really determinable on a first glance. She is in that state where she is not a child and she is not old. And she rarely stands still enough for you to get more than that first glance, at least not in human form. Her notable features are that she always wears blue and that her hair is usually in twin braids down her back.
Her known animals forms are a Coyote and a Barn Owl. Notably when she is in Coyote form, she has a line of pale fur going down in a line on each shoulder blade. For those rare people who have seen her without her shirt on, she has a line of what appear to be small white feathers growing down each of her shoulder blades.
1843 - born in County Tipperary, Ireland to Paul and Sinead Kennedy; she was the third child after Padraic and Michael
1848 - immigrated to Boston, MA
1875 - Padraic encounters legal trouble and it’s determined he should leave Boston for a while; he proposes that he and Aoife travel to the Open West since she is unmarried and has few prospects on the East Coast
1879 - October 6th; embraced
1885 - moved to San Diego; discovered that her sire was already living there
1890 - works security for a couple of Prince Maire’s events and gets noticed as reliable and hardworking; she continues to have a good working relationship with Prince Maire and her Court doing security, scouting, and ferrying messages.
1900 to 1921 - periodically leaves the area to go on seafaring adventures with Gabriella Giovanni di
1921 - leaves with Teuta to go deal with Lo Hon-cho, a pirate and slaver
1939 - returns to San Diego
1941 through 1945 - Aoife very decidedly does NOT take sides during the fighting between the Camarilla and the Anarchs, and in fact turns down some mercenary work that would put her in the middle of the conflict.
1945 - Aoife is greatly affected by Prince Maire’s death but once the dust settles and Theresa Holcomb is the new local Authority she offers to provide scouting, message carrying, and security services to her with the idea that the overall safety of the local area is more important than politics.
1957 - Aoife takes part in fighting back when the Sabbat make what ends up being a failed incursion into the SW; she works primarily as a scout under Anarch commanders
1995 - When Holcomb switches sects and declares herself a Camarilla Prince, Aoife cuts off their working relationship. She retreats to her own territory and is generally isolated. The notable exceptions to this are any other Gangrel in the area and she maintains friendly contact with Deaglán Síl Aedha Eaniagh
2005 - Baron Holcomb ’s death seems to not bother Aoife one way or another; she takes a nearly instant dislike to Matheson and is barely civil enough to him to maintain her territory under his Authority, it’s entirely likely her sire, John Smith, is the only reason she kept it although she is unaware of the extent to what he went to bat for her
2007 - Battle of Tombstone; Aoife participates as a scout doing reconnaissance and ferrying messages during the battle
Aoife is known as a scout and messenger and she has been in the domain of San Diego since the 1885. She has worked for every Authority in the domain in that time with the exception of the very last Camarilla Prince, a Malkavian named Mattheson. She seems to not care if she's working for the Camarilla, the Anarchs, or the Independent Alliance as long as they are willing to pay her for her time and maintain the relative security of the area she calls home.

- "My Aoife, my best friend. I brag about how after 400 years, it took a gangrel to get me to enjoy reading a book. I am so blessed we met. Our adventures in the 1900s wouldn't have happened without you!" - Gabriella
- "The sea brings out some special sparkle in Aoife's eyes. One of these nights, I'll see it again." - Teuta
- "She's not a Gangrel she's a Noiad who got a little lost." Simon Davilabraga
