Anatole
(Malkavian - 10th generation)
The lord works in mysterious ways, and this is particularly true concerning the Malkavian Anatole. Recently Embraced in France, Anatole was chosen for his ability to see the movements of God on Earth; or at least, his sire thought so.
In any event, Anatole is devoutly Christian, and spends much of his time in contemplation of the Cainite's place in God's world. His Derangement, a tendency for random hallucination, often causes him to see symbols, people and objects that do not exist, though to Anatole's mind, these hallucinations are quite real and reveal God's presence. Exactly what powers the Malkavian neonate possesses is unknown, but he has been known to repel Cainites with powers resembling True Faith by calling out to angels whom he sees in his fractured mind. A former guardsman on his city watch, Anatole has also picked up appreciable skill with sword and shield, which, when combined with his impressive array of Disciplines, make him quite physically adept. Those Cainite elders who observe his actions are concerned that a disproportionate number of his Disciplines are not within the province of the Malkavian clan. As to where he learns them, Anatole isn't telling.
Anatole typically keeps the company of the Lasombra Lucita, and acts as a strong right arm to her as they move through Dark Medieval Europe. He has also been seen with an entourage of monklike pilgrims, who are commonly believed to be either ghouls in his service or his herd.
Destiny: Anatole undergoes a period of religious fervor wherein he believes God has instructed him to find and diablerize vampires. He entertains this behavior for almost a century, which has many European princes up in arms, and he makes numerous foes among them. By the end of the eighteenth century, Anatole gets involved with the French Revolution and the lay mysticism it engendered, and changes the focus of his zealotry from Christianity to the Jyhad. With his newfound spiritual motivation, Anatole finds himself in the New World, where he spreads the word of Gehenna's approach.
