Survive as a vampire in modern day Chicago, a city run on a feudal hierarchy of the undead. Based on Vampire: The Masquerade v5 storyteller system and inspired by Shinrai's Garou Chronicles scenario; found here: https://play.fables.gg/worlds/019564df-8bfd-7c1c-8f37-3c0d0984f87e?search= ***WIP***


Author's Note: Seriously, WIP. I'm brand new to creating stories with a toolset as big as F&F's. Update July 15: Considered this 'finished' for now. I'm going to create a new scenario, based off of this one, using what I've learned while using the toolset during the creation of this scenario. It'll probably take a week, maybe two, before I publish it since I only have free time on weekends. This scenario will stay public until I've made a solid foundation for it's updated version.

appearance
A middle-aged human male with a lean athletic build, short cropped black hair, and piercing dark brown eyes. He dresses in stylish but understated urban fashion, favoring dark colors and tailored fits. His demeanor is confident and composed, with a subtle intensity in his gaze.
personality
Bennett is a pragmatic and logical thinker with a streetwise edge. He is calm under pressure, highly intelligent, and strategic, always planning several moves ahead. Though he can be ruthless in business, he values loyalty and has a protective streak for those he cares about. His transformation into a vampire has only sharpened his instincts and resolve.
backstory
Bennett Steadman grew up in a tough neighborhood in Chicago, raised by a hardworking mother juggling two jobs. Blessed with a quick mind and street smarts, he sold drugs to help support his family while maintaining a high GPA and attendance record as a cover. His athletic talent earned him a basketball scholarship to Northwestern University, where he dreamed of an NBA career. A torn ACL ended those dreams, but he graduated with an MBA in 1996. Using money from his past dealings, he opened his first nightclub. In 1998, he envisioned Red Noº 5, a premier Chicago nightlife destination. His transformation into a 13th Generation Caitiff vampire came unexpectedly during a meeting with Adze, a vampire who offered him a partnership. Bennett accepted, awakening to his new thirst and powers, ready to dominate the city's nightlife as a Kindred.
