Part 1: David Bauer

Background- A Canite of the Brujah clan, David is the childe of Johnny Almeida, a Brujah crime lord and Lyz's sire. One of several hoods who had ripped off one of Almeida's drug shipments, he and his buddies were quickly hunted down by Almeida's goons. David survived the longest, and managed to impress Almeida with his ingenuity and resourcefulness. When he was finally capture, he was brought before Almeida, who recognized his potential and embraced him.

Always one who had a problem with authority, David found Almeida no exception, and quickly rebelled before he could be blood bound. He soon fell in with a group of Anarchs, who's nihilistic views he shared, and joined their crusade to bring down the Camerilla. He resumed his old criminal activities, using his black market connections to become the Anarch’s main supplier.

David also took the opportunity to strike back at his sire. Almeida had begun having dealings with Pentex, which made him many other enemies as well. One of these was Ichiro. It wasn't long before Ichiro tracked down and contacted David to set up a mutual partnership. If David got him the supplies he needed to wage war on Pentex, Ichiro would help him take out Almeida.

The plan was for the two of them to hit Almeida during a meeting with Pentex officials and wipe them all out. Things almost went according to plan, until a local Garou pack showed up too. Not being the most open-minded when it came to vampires, the pack descended on David as well. Ichiro was forced to take them on, and with a combination of his swords and silver bullets, he managed to drive them off, wounding or killing all of them. In the course of the confusion, Almeida and several Pentex officials escaped. Ichiro allowed David to feed from him to heal his wounds, which were considerable thanks to the Garou.

David and Ichiro have been close friends ever since. More than that, because Ichiro saved David's life (or unlife), it now belongs to him until such time as David returns the favor. Ichiro has been careful not to abuse this bond, which both of them agreed to, but whenever he is in need of something, be it information or equipment, he turns to David.

During Gehenna: ???

Concept- David sees himself as a sort of undead Tyler Durden, although in reality he's not nearly as powerful or unbalanced as that. What he does have is black market connections, and charisma out the wazoo. Prior to Gehenna, he began amassing a small but growing following of Canites and Ghouls, which he still maintains for purposes known only to him. Since teaming up with Ichiro, David has also become involved in waging war on Pentex.

Appearance- David has spikey blond hair and roguish good looks, and typically dresses in street clothes. He bears a strong resemblance to Kiefer Sutherland in The Lost Boys.


Ichiro's Currently Singing: Rock You Like a Hurricane, The Scorpions

"It's early morning
The sun comes out
Last night was shaking
And pretty loud

My cat is purring
And scratches my skin
So what is wrong
With another sin

The b***h is hungry
She needs to tell
So give her inches
And feed her well

More days to come
New places to go
I've got to leave
It's time for a show

Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane

My body is burning
It starts to shout
Desire is coming
It breaks out loud

Lust is in cages
Till storm breaks loose
Just have to make it
With someone I choose

The night is calling
I have to go
The wolf is hungry
He runs to the show

He's licking his lips
He's ready to win
On the hunt tonight
For love at first sting

Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane

He runs to show

He's licking his lips
He's ready to win

For love at first sting

Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane

Here I am!"
