Background Information:
Portland was once a conservative and quiet Camarilla city ruled by Finneas Miles. It might have stayed that way if not for the accidental embrace of DJ Ten Ton. DJ had just returned disillusioned from the Korean War and was not in the mood to bow and scrape to a Prince just because he was a caitiff. DJ Ten Ton. After a hostile encounter with the caitiff, Prince Finneas Miles sent his sheriff to make an example out of this rogue caitiff. DJ Ten Ton not only staked the sheriff, but dragged him back to the court and ripped off his head and then went about his business.
The legend of the caitiff that stood up to the Prince grew. Caitiff started arriving nightly to support their new hero. The harpies began to whisper that Finneas Miles lost control.
To appease his primogen, Finneas Miles started crucifying caitiff. Finneas Miles called in every boon he possessed to garner support from his allies and had a potent mob awaiting DJ Ten Ton. Using skills learned in the army, DJ trained a small gang of loyal thugs and killed the Prince.
He didn’t want to be Prince so he declared Portland a free city. It lasted a few weeks until another Camarilla Prince was declared with the support of an archon. DJ Ten Ton realized that he would never be left alone until there was some sort of power structure in Portland. He organized the anarchs into gangs and made a deal with the Setite elder Jakeria Lee. Together, they killed off the remaining Camarilla vampires in Portland.
And then, DJ Ten Ton did the unthinkable. He organized the gangs into political parties and held free elections. DJ Ten Ton was elected as Baron of Portland. Every ten years, he holds new elections and always wins by a landside. The city has transformed into an artist community that exchanges free ideas.
Of course, some say that not everything is as rosy as appearances would have you believe. In exchange for her support, DJ Ten Ton granted Jakeria Lee domain for her new temple. Portland has become a base of operations for the entire Setite clan in North America. Most of the Portland residents think that the Setites are amusing, but mostly harmless. Some even listen to their sermons for entertainment.
In the last few years, the city seems to have grown a bit colder. The homeless population has expanded. Some say that DJ Ten Ton is losing sight of the big picture and starting to think of himself as a Prince. The anarchs in California growl privately that Portland needs to do more to support the cause, but they don’t want to tarnish the reputation of the caitiff that saved Portland. The rest of the anarchs think of Portland as Utopia and turn a blind eye to the snakes in the garden.
DJ Ten Ton is thought of as one of the most dangerous vampires in the world and yet the Inner Council fears that putting him on the Red List would sear his name forever into legend.
