Overview

Little is known of Herenight's origins. What is known is that he has a slight African accent and is fluent in Afrikaans, English, French, German, Arabic, Korean as well as Chinese, both Cantonese and Mandarin. As one of the younger members of the Black Lodge, he's not a completely greenhorn grunt, but neither is he a commanding presence. He seems to have a relatively loose moral compass, as could be expected, although some things do set him off: bad parenting, indenturement and feral ghouls. Why these three, none can say. He's been sighted in Africa, the United Kingdom and North America, most commonly whenever something magical is afoot. To consort with him is extremely dangerous and relying on him is bound to cost oneself dearly in the long run. Even if he ends up helping a runner a great deal, it should always be assumed that sooner or later dealing with someone this fearsome will get you killed. Consider every interaction carefully. Do not overstep your boundaries -- and most importantly, run.

Aspects Description

Aspect	Description
Old Fashioned	Herenight never uses the Matrix. Getting in touch with him, therefore, is difficult. Normally it takes him 8 days to get in touch. Roll Edge+Loyalty; each hit makes him get in touch a day earlier, minimum 1 day/24 hrs.
Above Aspect pending approval. Please notify Thematics.
Vampiric Veteran	You need to know about HMHVV? He knows most things about most strains. Call it a perk of the job.
Grim Talismonger	Herenight can arrange for foci specialized towards dark magic, black magic, Aztec or Christian traditions.
Mr. Worldwide	Herenight has worldwide coverage. Where-ever on the planet you might need his help, if you manage to convince him that it's worth his time, getting there won't be a problem.
Astral Knowledge	The self-proclaimed Ripper has been on his fair share of metaplanar quests and knows a fair share about spirits and metaplanes.
Drug Deacon	If it comes to astrally charged substances such as Hecate's Blessing, Shade or Oneiro, he can provide it without breaking a sweat.
Reagent Retailer	Forget the difficulty of attaining reagents. While they may come in a grim form, the quality that Herenight provides is undeniable.
Safehouse Scout	Due to sunlight being a big issue, it's good to have countless hidey-holes available. Doubly so given the proclivity of vampire hunters. No matter where you go, Herenight knows a place or two to lay low.
Soul Sustenance	Need some essence, dear Strain 1? If Jack the Ripper is around, he's got a fair bunch of victims on standby, docile and ready for consumption. This is cruel, but what do you expect from someone like him?
