Introduction
Skeleton Keys is a venue wide plot that has been going on for a long time, and a lot of Kindred have participated in it's many investigations, adventures and dangers. It has links to other plots as well, showing only how widespread the story is. 'The Prequel' on this page thus only shows us the last scenes of the Robbing a Bank plot. Because, as turns out later, it may have links to Skeleton Keys!

Meeting at University (Also from Robbing a Bank)
- This is a short scene where Regent Erika Brady meets with Max Heinz. She has an ancient text with her, written on human skin. It is what she retrieved from the Kindred that robbed a bank for her. She asks Max Heinz to study it. He is able to discern that the text is in fact written in an ancient Hungarian dialect. Then, to his surprise, she translates it before him.
- "Today I came so close to completing the great work. I felt my curse begin to be lifted. I felt something in myself begin to evolve as I feed upon that fool Tamás. As his soul left his body, I feasted on it. My strength grew, and my chains weakened. Lucina was correct. She is so right, through this we can be free. I will join her and follow her path. Through the souls of my enemies, I will be free." - Erika Brady [1]
- Curiously enough, she gives him the text and a suitcase with a box in it. The box contains the old helmet. She trusts he'll take care of it.
Up In Flames (Also from Robbing a Bank)
- The same night that Max Heinz got the skin and the helmet from Erika Brady, he decides to destroy the text, and let the helmet sink to the bottom of a lake. The one who wrote the text was probably a Diablerist, and Max doesn't want anyone to become inspired by it. Or worse, he suspects that Erika Brady wants to say more by giving this to him. In any way, he prefers to hide the helmet and keep the text only safely in hidden in his memory.
