About
Name: Django (Zeev Reinhardt)
Notable Traits: Django comes across as a jovial character, carrying himself lightly in a wine colored collared shirt, black vest, and pinstriped black pants. He keeps his sleeves rolled up, seemingly prepared for anything, and keeps his Harris's Hawk Miri, nearby most times, usually on his shoulder. He bears a friendly demeanor, quick with a smile or joke, though close observation shows he is someone accustomed to navigating and surviving the Kindred world.
Type: Vampire
Character Type Subgroup: Ravnos
Sect: Independent Alliance
Biography
Originally born in Germany in a Jewish ghetto, Django was brought to California by his sire to fight in The First Coalition War. Once the war ended, Django spent much of his time traveling throughout the southwest, teaching and philosophizing. Always quick to make friends and help others out, he would spend much time simply visiting and hanging out with members of all sects other than the Sabbat. When the Sabbat first began probing into invading the southwest again, Django was one of the first to join alongside the Anarchs and fight them off. After the Second Coalition War, once the Ravnos joined the Independent Alliance, Django decided to follow his clan and join as well, settling into the IA territory around San Francisco.
Django enjoys spending time with others and cracking jokes but also enjoys philosophizing and helping others in the pursuit of enlightenment. His personal philosophy is that the world is filled with infinite realities and it is only the trappings of our beliefs that determine what is real to us. It is in all of our best interests to attempt to gain wisdom and open our minds to new realities and possibilities so that we can make this one the best it can possibly be.
