Description

While Melrose sense of fashion changes as often as Chameleon changes its colour the one constant of this Carthian's appearance are his ancient leather boots. Looking like something that a workman would have worn in the late 1700s, these worn boots have been patched countless times over their life, yet are lovingly polished each night.

Those few who have been able to pierce the mask of obfuscate that always cloaks this Carthian would see a kindred that has fallen very close to the beast, his skin resembling more a corpse than a living mortal, his red hair fading with his undeath.

Information Known by Kindred Society

• Melrose began to circulate around Australian kindred in the 1840s, a friendly Nomadic independent seeking knowledge of the vampiric condition with a slight chip on his shoulder when it came to mortal politics and the British.

• Shortly after the Eureka Stockade Melrose began to wander around Australia preaching the Carthian beliefs to anyone who would listen, and was run out of more than one city for his beliefs against the first estate.

• In 1865 disappeared from view after attempting to help his fellow believers in Carthian ideals escape the purge in Sydney.

• Next seen publicly in 1900 when he stood with his fellow Carthians petitioning Praxis holders of their domains to recognise the Carthian Movement as a new Covenant and to allow them a Primogen in their city

• In 1901 he unsuccessfully attempted to help his fellow Carthian's escape the second purge in Sydney

• Was blood hunted by Baldassario Gabriele Ambrosi in 1945, although nobody knows exactly why....
