Tenebros History

The Tenebroso Clan is one of the most volatile and most powerful Vampire Clans in the world.  Their tentacles of power stretch across the world, where they've established strongholds and family bloodlines under the name Tenebroso.  The Clan was originally started by the beyond Ancient vampire, Vasille Tenebroso (RIP) in the days before the Savior walked the Earth.  He used fear and unscrupulous practices to keep his children under his control.  He launched a war that would near-obliterate any opposers and turned the Tenebroso Clan into the first cohesive Family of bloodsuckers.

His rule was long and iron-clad.  He grew his Family, embracing worthy humans the world over.  Greedy land barons, they bought up territory where they could and if they could not buy it, they slaughtered whomever sat upon it and simply claimed it.  His children, in turn, established their own cabals of childer, advisers, enforcers, with strong loyalty ties to Vasille.  When the then-King decided to settle in the wild America's, he made the untamed country his base of power.  There he expanded his Clan - his Dynasty - settling into a supervisory role and focusing on business and money.

Vasille appointed Princes to rule over his interests in the European countries, and to them Advisers.  But America, New Orleans, was the seat of Tenebroso power, the originators of the bloodline.  Unsurprisingly, they were arrogant and prideful of that fact.

Power hungry vampires, namely his own wife and Queen, Carolina, began to plot his downfall.  He was murdered by his own Council Members and leadership fell into the Queen's hands. 
In the late 90's, struggles for supremacy split the American and European Cabals.  The European Princes felt they shared none of the power the American's claimed and so sent their emissary - Matteo De la Cruz - into America to claim the position of King.  Having little choice but to acquiesce, the American Cabal welcomed him - frostily - as their new ruler. 

For a time, at least.

Angered at the disrupt in Europe, the Regent Shadow Conn began condensing the Clan's European power in France under the guise of re-uniting the fractured Clan.  France, home to the Regents original bloodline of Mal Sombre, was made the base of power there.  She put a stranglehold on their power and their individual family bloodlines, making them answerable directly to her.  No longer would they sit in their strongholds and plot against the American Cabal, the Dynasty as a whole, at leisure, nor would they run Europe as they saw fit.

 

In America, King Matteo dispensed with niceties for a night and deposed Carolina from her throne, making himself sole ruler in a move that proved the new King was here to stay.

 

But not for very long.  Matteo soon disappeared, Carolina reclaimed her throne and she, alongside the Elder and Regent, went to war with their cousins in Europe.  The Princes were decimated, the Tenebroso were left broke from the cost of war, and the city is now flooded with humans and hunters...   

 

 

 

A Prince is a vampire who controls enough territory in Europe to call it his own.  This includes domain over his own childer, independent vampires.  He or she must keep the hunters at bay and the presence of vampires away from the general public.
The title is sexless, meaning it can be applied to a male or female. (Ex. Prince of France, Prince of Italy, Prince of Portugal, etc.)
