What Happened, The Short Version
by Alexander Soze
On the night of my assassination three different groups plotted my demise, two of them working together. From what I have gathered the two different groups were: Mr.. Crane & The Radinov's, and a Sabbat bishop I extracted some information that saved the city from the raid on The 5th of August 2000.
Mr. Crane and the Radinov's attack took me by surprise. I have never had any bad business with the Radinovs and I thought very highly of Mr. Crane. That leaves the Bishop from Stockton. My encounter with him was short and didn't really have time to exchange pleasantries so I didn't get his name. Both groups attacked me, first The Sabbat from Stockton who rendered me useless with the use of Caine's gift of Animalism and then The Radinov's who pinned me in my car and tried to burn me alive. Luck be on my side I slipped out of my car and grabbed onto one of the Vans undercarriage under the cover of a smoke grenade. After I was sufficiently away I let go and had one of my ghouls pick me up and take me to a Haven outside of Sacramento. Resting there until I regained my strength. I appreciate all the effort by the Kindred of Sacramento in their investigations. Thank you.
Dante's Inferno
by Crazie Jane
Someone once told me to go to Hell. So I did. I came back. But a clansman did
not. It was a Hell where Dante perished. Why? For a small error. What started
out as a mission for knowledge turned into a very dangerous playtime for
Cainites. Dante had made an error. Nothing big but it still cost him
existence. He like other could not resist the temptation to torment one each
Lark. Lark's tormentors let him on the fun. However, demons being demons they
got violent over a flamethrower that Dante had barrowed. His mistake was he
wanted to keep it. The ensuing ruckus annoyed one of this Hell's demon
generals. This supertanker of whup ass left his perch and grabbed a hold of
Dante. This supertanker of whup ass is composed of pure flame. Dante went
poof. Egad did his best to save Dante but even our mighty sheriff could not
prevent this. If you have an opportunity to visit a Hell, take it. You can
learn so much. However, be very careful of your every action. It can mean
more than your unlife.
Harpy Flies, Leaving a Feather
by Gore Vitale
It came as no surprise when Chief Harpy Dot Warner stepped down from her
position Saturday, but the hopes of Clan Toreador were dashed when Feather
of Clan Tremere was elected to the Perch. Feather, a former Prince of the
City and one of Warner's "dearest enemies," had no comment for this reporter
after closing court, but she is expected to have plenty of commentary for
the city and its wayward members in weeks to come.
Trust No One
by Ash Skinner
The city was a-buzz Saturday night when two FBI agents managed to make their
way through the Elysium grounds for some time before being accosted by the
Keeper, who asked them to leave the premises. Agents Lazarus and Montgomery
continued to lurk around the periphery for some time, taking notes and
engaging various members of the City in conversation. It is unknown at this
time what breaches of the Masquerade occurred in their presence, but it is
likely that the Sheriff will be investigating the matter in the near future.
Sabbat or Otherwise
by Darwin Lives
On Saturday night a kindred came to the city saying
that the Sabbat had captured him and that he escaped
from a warehouse on the West Sacramento riverfront. A
group of the cities leaders including the Prince
Recoil investigated and did indeed find a warehouse
filled with people. My sources tell me that it was
decorated as a home. A couple was talking about being
able to take over Sacramento as these vampires were no
different than any others. They want to know what
makes the vamps tick. Auspex was also done on several
of the people standing around the warehouse entrance,
they tested to be mortal. There was also a crow that
had a "sparkle aura". So these people could be the
Sabbat, mages, or the hunters. They need to be
observed and their activities noted until we can learn
their true nature.
Sacramento Scandle Investigated
by Joseph Wellington - London Loyalist
News of Alexznder Soze's survival was greatly appriciated in London this week, as the Western Division of Clan Ventrue has came under close scrutiny. After Ventrue Security reviewed the incident, it is believed that Theadore Crane was most likely not working alone, and a division of Internal Security is expected to arrive in Sacramento within the next two weeks. Sacramento Ventrue Corp. may be looking at a loss of funding over this incident and further investigation into proceedure management. Arthur Wolfmann, Head of Ventrue Western Division Security, will be coming into London this week to explain why an attack on an elder was permitted. Rumors are that Wolfmann may be replaced, but no new canidates for the position are forthcoming.
Toreador Interactive Art Show
by Cuttoo D. Chase
What has been dubbed the "Toreador Interactive Art Show" is set to take place on the eve of June 9th. All city residents have been asked to contribute some form of art to the show. Shell of Clan Toreador is quite excited to see the turnout.

Archons
by Crazie Jane
The city was visited by an archon. It did not matter who he or she was. Nor
the clan mattered. What should be feared is the fact this vampire is a deputy
to a Justicar. Pray to whatever deity you believe in that you are not in a
city that a Justicar is in. You can bet your bottom that if you anger a
Justicar you will be put on the Red List. For the neonates, the Red List is
the Camarilla wide blood hunt. Archons visit cities for various reasons
however most reasons are they are aiding a Justicar's investigation. A
Justicar can have ANY Cainite put to death, with the exception of the city's
Prince. However, they have ways of dealing with Prince's who have brought the
wrath of the Inner Circle upon them. No matter if you have angered an archon
or not, like me, always treat them with respect. No matter how you view the
Camarilla, always treat them with respect. No matter what your belief is,
always treat them with respect. To disrespect an archon is to disrespect a
Justicar. To disrespect a Justicar is to disrespect the Inner Circle. And
that boys & girls is a REAL bad thing.
...And Along Came a Shadow
by Shadowstorm
Darkness descended into the heart of Sacramento Saturday night. Another tear in the fabric of time was opened again Saturday night. The power of the Wyld is running rampant. From the original Tremere breaching the dimensional walls years ago, to this most recent breach, the days ahead will be frought with strange shadowy beasts. One such appearance came during closing court. The unknown appeared to be a child. It flitted among the Trfemere and Gangrel as a minor annoyance. This type of situation will be investigated.
Departure
by Xavier DaCosta
City of Sacramento, as nost of you heard at gather, I am leaving to go to
Europe. I will be training under the Brujah Justicar to take ny place as a
Camarilla Archon. I will be the first Archon to bear the blood of the
Lasombra. I'm sure some of you may be upset about the Inner Circle
Council's decision, however their word is law. Following my training and my
ascention to my new position, I will be appointed to the West Coast, so i
will not be too far away. I would just like to say that I enjoyed serving
as your Scourge, and I especially enjoyed serving under such a balanced
Prince. If more Princes were like Recoil, less cities would fall to the
Sabbat. Hopefully I can help stop that. Primogen, keep everything in line.
Sacramento is on a winning streak, and I hope it stays that way for a long
time. Thank you.
Carthage Revisited
by Crazie Jane
Was Carthage corrupt? Ask Hannibal. He says no. Can there be another
Carthage? Ask me. I say no. Why? Things have changed. For the Brujah of
Carthage it was a great time. For the mortals, it was not Heaven. But it was
not a Hell like I said. For mortals it would have been better than most other
ancient cities. Why was I wrong? Was my research bad? No. Was my research
misinterpreted? Yes. I wondered how I after four centuries of research I
could be wrong. How did I get lead off the wrong path and who lead me? Yet
the answer was there in my notes. The Jyhad. I had become a pawn in some
methuselahs game. Yet I know not. I doubt I ever will. I was given the
opportunity to chat with Archon Hannibal on a place he had lived at a time
where it ended. Notes taken from that meeting will be cross-reference. What a
vicious game is being played. And we are all caught up in this endgame called
Jyhad. No one is untouched. The powers that those of fourth and lower
generations posses is absolutely God-like to us. I wonder is our actions our
own? I had erred in my research. But I will not stop. I have discovered a
major tangent in the Jyhad. It is most definitely aimed at Clan Brujah's
destruction. Who ever is behind the fall of Carthage must of known all the
ramifications of the Carthage-Rome power struggle. I look at the evidence I
have collected and wonder what other tangent's of the Jyhad is obfuscated. My
research will be diligent. I will hunt for the truth of who caused the fall.
I know that many state that Clans Ventrue & Toreador were jealous. But were
they made to be so? Rome was controlled by Lasombra, Malkavians, & Ventrue.
Were they manipulated into a war that need not happen? Could Rome not have
duplicated Carthage's success? And if not why? And if so why was Rome
strangled into not reaching her full potential? I made a statement I believe
was fact-based truth. I had a witness to that era. I apologize to Hannibal
for offense I caused him. I have now a thousand more questions. I do this for
my clan; I do this for I am Brujah. Clan Brujah can never recreate Carthage.
We can however make the city safer for mortals. For no other reason that to
add another protection to the masquerade. I will find the whole truth…it is
out there.
A Night in the Wyld
by Barbara Moore
It appears that the Wyld has awoken. Those of you who
have spent any time in the woods lately have probably
noticed a difference. The woods are alive in a sense
that has never been before. Clan Gangrel was summoned
on saturday night out to our land in Havenwood. The
Wyld is who summoned. It apologized for harming some
of my clan a couple of weeks ago and told me that
Moriah is well and protected. We were also told that
as long as we live in harmony within the boundaries of
Havenwood that all would be welcome. The local Garou
have agreed to this as well. Havenwood is a sacred
spot and going there if you are not of the Gangel
blood or accompanied by one of us would be a bad idea.
Apparently the wyld can tell the difference between
the clans. I don't know how so don't ask me.
