Acknowledging Joshua

[Joshua Gonzalez]

Joshua would listen to her and start answering her questions one by one making sure to answer all of them.

"I do formerly swear loyalty, to Alder Prince Alessandra Antinori and her court, for I am in their territory and my mother told me to respect all local authority."

Joshua would listen intently and gave a smile. [color=orange] "I appreciate you telling me this, I don't want to step on any toes, especially not the prince"[/orange] He gave a respectful nod to the Seneschel.

He would sit back and think "Well there are a few so I will go over briefly. Saint Lorenzo of the Lancea Sanctum was my sire, and his sire was Saint Diego of Lancea Sanctum, of Clan Gangrel, and he had 4 childe. Me, Mark,Luke,Matthew. We never really learned each other's last name, Luke was Torpor'ed from a Cruac ritual then properly disappeared after that. Joshua would sigh after saying that, he would then listen to the rest of the questions.

He would take the contact information of both Carthian and Crone. "Thank you very much" he would simply nod and said I would appreciate the introduction to the Ordo, they were quite secretive we're I am from"

He would look at her and ask "I will only ask one question about the Invictus from you personally" Joshua would look into her eyes as if searching for something. "What does the first estate mean to you?"

He would then breath heavily and put his fingers to his chin "On to a new topic, Is there anything outside of what is already written down that should never be brought up with the prince? By that I mean when I am allowed to talk with her, is there certain topics that could be brought up normally that make her angry?

Jennifer studies Joshua closely for a moment to decide if he was telling her the truth. Was he sincere in his Oath?

Jennifer decided to trust this Gangrel in front of her.

"Then I accept your Oath, Mr. Joshua Gonzalez. You are acknowledged in Sacramento." This was stated with approprate solemnity.

Jennifer took a moment to record the names that were given to her onto expensive paper.

"I expect you will find the Ordul Dracul to be much the same here.

The First Estate means the right Kindred, the Kindred who rose to power on their own merits, lead. I appreciate the mentorship that the First Estate provides for the younger Kindred, or those who were recently accepted to full members. The Meritocracy matters a great deal to me. The First Estate has shaped me into who I am this night."

"Courtesy should always be followed. There are no specific topics that I would say are out of bounds.
Give the Hell Hound, Cain, appropriate room. He is a Hell Hound and taken liberties with him will cost you."

As Jennifer through dice, you can roll and subtract suxx off the end to counter Jennifer's attempt

[Joshua Gonzalez]

Joshua was sincere in his oath, like all vampires he had his own goals, however there was no malice toward her or the rules. He was a former fighter he kept his word.


He would nod at her statement about the Ordo, and would listen to her words very carefully about the first estate "Thank you for that reply, I will ask the other Covenant's the same question." He sounded like he was listening for something.


Joshua was a little confused for a moment at the mention of a hell hound, but he just nodded at what she said. "Thank you for the warning Lady Seneschel, I will keep my distance from it" There was a brief pause before he asked. "Is there anything else you acquire from me?" He clenched his hands to the side as if he was about to stand up.

[Jennifer Hazelton]

Jennifer's voice crept like a serpent over decaying leaves.
"I advise my cousins to seek out a Covenant to find common ground. The one true boon we have is a vast expanse of time to carefully think through important decisions. The choice of selecting a Covenant is no small matter. It can shape one's Danse.

Seek me at Court when you wish to meet the leader of the Ordul Dracul. He keeps to himself. I hope that you find what you are looking for. A wise decision." Jennifer acknowledged his response to her advice regarding Cain.
"No, I have nothing further, Mr. Gonzalez."

I am good to close here if you are

[Joshua Gonzalez]

Joshua would smile, the voice was a bit strange but he saw the somewhat kindness in her words "I thank you for your kindness, I appreciate you acknowledging me Lady Seneschel"

"I will appreciate it, I would Love to meet each Leader." Joshua would bow his head in respect. "Thank you once again for your time, you take care tonight" Joshua would get up then begin to collect his stuff.

That should be good, thank you for the scene

[Jennifer Hazelton]

Jennifer gives a short, graceful nod to show that she was actively listening to the Gangrel gentleman.
"I value information. Good evening.
Liam."
The ghoul escorted the welcomed kindred to collect his things at the coat check. Then Liam watched the gentleman depart, off to make his mark.

Good scene, I enjoyed it. Thank you
