The Railroad Incident
by Faynt
Alas, this week was indeed dark for the kindred of Sacramento. Despite
weeks of torment by such foul monstrosities as bane spirits, wraiths, and
infernalists, a new front was recently renewed in the Sacramento Kindred’s
war on the world. I, of course, refer to a renewal in hostilities with the
organization known as Chemlife. For no worthy reason, the kindred in
Sacramento were ordered to assault an apparently innocent convoy containing
cargo owned by Chemlife. Dutiful to a fault, Allistor of clan Nosferatu
took on the onerous obligation of organizing and leading the assault force.
Clan Nosferatu in conjunction with clan Gangrel staged a simple hijacking
mission only to be ambushed. Moments after forcing the train containing
five Chemlife cars to a standstill, a helicopter and several werewolves
attacked the surprised kindred, 'The First Strike Team'. It quickly became apparent that Chemlife
was prepared for the kindred’s hijacking attempt, and Chemlife responded
with overwhelming force. Chemlife’s forces overcame and routed the kindred
in the space of a few moments. Indeed, even unexpected reinforcement by the
Prince himself was incapable of reversing the tides of battle. The
werewolves were equipped with incredible levels of technology and
supernatural abilities far exceeding even the eldest use of Caine's Gifts. As the last of
the kindred departed the field of battle the grievously injured prince
attempted his own withdrawl from the field. Unfortunately, the Prince had
remained too long and was subjected to the combine prowess of multiple
enemies. Had it not been for the distracting efforts of Allistor and myself
the prince would have been destroyed, his retreating helicopter shot down by
the enemy. The price for the Prince’s survival was great however; Allistor
paid for the Prince’s life with his own. While the hijacking attempt was a
dismal failure, and a well respected member of the city will be mourned for,
in failure we have learned something. Ask yourself how Chemlife could have
responded so quickly with such overwhelming force. The expense of
maintaining such protection for transportation of fairly unimportant
merchandise is prohibitive. Since Chemlife could not afford to maintain
such a high powered chaperons for their typical convoys, Chemlife must have
been expecting an assault on this convoy specifically. Thus I would invite
the keeper and sheriff to combine forces to seek a spy or traitor within the
city. Only if Chemlife had been forewarned could it have arrayed such
potent forces against what should have been a minor raid. Let Allister’s
destruction provide one last boon to this fair city.
Act of Good Faith
by Wild on Ukiah
In an effort to show a debt of gratitude to the Garou, Friday, in her assistance with 'The Bane', Prince Recoil made the decision to hijack a train of chemicals and toxic waste on it's way to Chemlife's Ukiah Facility. Recoil, not known for his compassion, showed a moment of it to the Garou of Ukiah. However his decision, the information was leaked and three unlives were taken. Sacramento isn't what it was long ago, but it is regenerating slowly. This incident was a major setback to the rebuilding of the Sacramento Empire. This leak must be found...he or she is now responsible for the deaths of three kindred, Allistor Holland, Raptor Cage of Clan Gangrel, and an neonate female who remains nameless for reasons unknown, and now the disappearence of the Prince. He was last seen barely flying over the horizon of the Ukiah hills last Saturday in his badly damaged helicopter.
Wraith Crisis Growing
by Rocky Mountain
A combined task force of Tremere, Giovanni and others
discovered a large pentagram beneath the waves of
Folsom Lake. A large portal is at the center of the
pentagram. The true purpose of the portal remains a
mystery at this time. What is known is that the
information to close the rift is on the computers
found at the five different locations. Feather and
others are working solve this problem.
One Last Chance
Les B. Inn
The Masquerade is our oldest an most sacred tradition, and when it is broken it is uselly met with by death. But, two very lucky Kindred have been given one more chance to redeem themselves to Sacramento. Tre and Jinx of Clan Brujah were stopped by Morgan Powell the Keeper Of Elysium saturday for fighting in front of the Elysium useing great strength and speed. After a clan meeting the Brujah decided that they would let them continue with their unlives only to be und ther care of and property to Dora Sinclair. Dora will be taking responsibility under the Tradtion of Accounting. If anymore problems are to occur the two individuals will set as examples to the rest of the kindred society.
Foreclosure of a Dream
by Dastinus of Nosferatu
Saturdaynight was a busynight for the city of Sacramento and deadly as well. A train left Sacramento for Ukiah carrying all sorts of nasty Chemlife stuff. On behest of the Prince, Allister Holland lead a large strike force to deal with the toxic express. Assisted by Stone of Clan Gangrel in leading the mission, things seemed to be going quite well, until a helicopter showed up and started shooting high caliber and somehow enhanced weaponry.
The mission was completed and rather successfully. However, Allister Holland, Raptor and possibly others were killed in this mission. Sources have confirmed Allister is truly dead, not another game. It is our belief that The city lost one of it's finest members this last weekend. And it is a loss that will be felt. Allister Holland was a warrior, a patriot, and a hero. His service to the city should not be forgotten. The man had a dream for this city and he led by example. Former keeper and former Seneschal, There are very few kindred in Sacramento who bare the courage and stature that this man did. Further Sources tell us that a member or representative of the Holland family will be attending opening Court next week to deliver the last will and testament of Allister Holland. I pray that everyone bows their head and gives a moment of respect to our fallen comrade and try to remember what his actions have taught us. Goodbye good friend.

The WereWolF Report
by Taggert Teamer
The Garou-Brothers-Turned-Tag-Team "The Crotchsniffers" have been making
waves in the WWF. After debuting on Smackdown weeks ago against Right to
Censor, they returned Monday on Raw is War. After a brief verbal battle
with Right to Censor over the vulgarity of their very name and all that
they did, Lt.Commissioner Debra revealed that Mick Foley had given her and
her alone power over ANY match involving this new team. She decreed that
later that night the Crotchsniffers would team with the Dudley Boyz against
all four members of Right to Censor in a 4-on-4 Table Match. During the
match, Ivory was once again dragged away from interfearing in the match by
the Manager of the Crotchsniffers, Perdita. Joining in on the cat fight was
Hardy Boyz valet Lita, who came running out to assist Perdita. While R.T.C.
founder Steven Richards was distracted trying to stop the beating of Ivory,
Scooby, Benji, and Bubba Ray knocked the Goodfather, Bull Buchannan and Val
Venus out of the ring and proceded to pummell Richards as D-Von "Got the
Table." In a stunning mix of finishing moves, all four wrestlers teamed to
perform the "Aries 3D", a stunning mix of the Crotchsniffers "Aries D" and
the Dudley's "3D", which put Richards thorugh a table for the win. R.T.C.
limped away to lick their wounds, as the Baha Men cheered on with thousands
of fans as the triumpnant teams climbed the four corners and screamed "Who
Let The Dogs Out?!?" After another stunning victory over Right To Censor on Monday, the
Crotchsniffers popularity exploded. During an interview with the new tag
team, the members of The Radicalz jumped in and began a 4-on-2 beating,
before it was interupted by the Dudley Boyz, Hardy Boyz and Lita. Later
that evening, Chris Benoit challenged the Crotchsniffers to come down
against himself and Dean Milinko. Rushing out into the ring, the fight was
on. The battle was close, with a Crippler Cross Face put on Scooby being
interupted by an elbow drop by Benji, and an Elephant Press by Benji on
Milinko was stopped by a flying kick from Benoit. Mid-Match, the ref was
distracted by Benoit after a Recoil Buster from Scooby left Milinko out and
ready to be pinned. Meanwhile, Radical Perry Saturn arrived and grappled
with Benji on the outside of the ring. When Scooby got up to assist his
partner, Latino Heat Eddie Guerero slid into the ring and smashed Scooby
with a metal folding chair, then dragged Milinko onto the prone body for
the pin. After the match, all four Radicalz continued their beating on the
Crotchsniffers before being interupted by the Acolyte Protection Agency.
Only their second week and already making enemies with two of the largest
teams in the WWF.
Bloodlines
by D.J. Platelet
A new kickin' nightclub is bumpin' on Saturday night's. Bloodlines. The slamminest new grooves, and dollar drink specials till 2am...this is a 21 and older nightclub...the Grand opening of Bloodlines happened Saturday and had a huge turnout. Crown Prince of Sac-town was at the event and opened the festivities by being the honorary first customer. And the Prince was even spotted a few times busting a move of his own. Owner of Bloodlines, Max Cashbane of Ventrue Inc., also attended the party, and was delighted at his opening night success.
Showing Respect
by Fortune Twenty
When the Ventrue Clan was asked if they had any business, they responded. Nominating the Garou known as Friday for the Status of Respected for her work against the Bane. The city's response was one of confusion and disbelief. Maybe the Blue Bloods are turning over a new leaf. Who knows?
A Fallen Angel
by The Dark One
The city's once infamous Brujah, Morgan, once blood hunted by the prince at the time, Egad, now retains the honored position of Keeper of Elysium. His first eve holding this position he was no where to be seen, even during closing court. While he has retained this position, he has breeched the masquearde more than those he is supposed to contain. While taking care of a squabble between two of his own clan he was reported to have breeched himself while taking care of them. This is not a manner in which a person holding this position should react. To breech our sacred tradition in order to prevent others from doing so is incredibly moronic and I would like to suggest that he be removed from his position.
Theft at Local Church
by Donavon Nuage
During Saturday night, thieves broke into a local Catholic curch. From the police report, wo men entered through the back door. The two were dressed in strange occult garb. As the priest was praying, one of the culprits brutally attacked him and stole a rare book. One of the priests bodyguards was attacked by what was described as a homeless man told the guard to sleep and he fell down unconscience. Witnesses describe a blur and gust of wind that knocked down the front door. Police have a photo of the homeless man on file.
Allister Holland, Sacramento Legend
by Bill Door
No covert operations concerning Allister Holland's fake demise this time. Death caught up to Mr. Holland on Saturday in his attempts to save our very Prince. Allister would, nine times out of ten, be at the forefront of every raid or mission concerning the sacred Traditions. Raids against Sabbat. Infiltraiting missions. Allister also served as a one time Keeper of the Elysium and former Primogen of Clan Nosferatu. Allister's efforts will be missed and hopefully someone will be able to fill his shoes and make such sacrifices for our cause. Holland follows sadly in the footsteps of Seneschal Smith, who only died two weeks ago today.
