The first is that our transaetion has proceeded without treachery and | have not had to butcher you, Secondly, Ihave verified that the Concoction of Vitality that you've procured from the Sabbat Is the genuine article, and It is now In my hands. The potion's recipe is a suitable exchange (or this letters information concerning the Red List, also known as the Cawarilla's Most Wanted. | know you will find it as absorbing as I have. Here is the point where warnings ave in order. The first concerns your fascination with me, your questions and your pathetic attempts to woo me over toyour banner. Vou would do well to forget about me, as your curiosity is becoming hazardous to your own survival. If you ever attempt to contact me again, Ml make certain that your odd-colored eyes are burned out by the sun. 1 do hope we have an understanding. Beyond this, | think your attempt of assembling the Most Wanted is highly jnpracteal, if ucce ticite insane. yon auscne one, whut nukes you believe that anyone will trast you? Still, we are all spiders in human form, thirsting \ for btood and for conspiracies. Why deny yours? Perhaps, if you fail, I'll ~ succeed in molding the Anathema into a sect of my own. The second warming comes with the information that I have included in __ this letter, Do not be misled by the appearance of the Most Wanted List. Even .. though it was drawn up in the same era as 7. Edgar Hoover's mortal version, there are fundamental differences between the two. Pay attention. The Camarilla’s Most Wanted is not a mere list of guilty criminals; itis an arena for vendetta, pitting the Justicars of the seven clans against their opponents, Since the names on the List are under a Camavitla-wide Blood Hunt, it note ac a cvoporative foil againet any foo whom the Juctioare may want to destroy. There are few on the Red List, with the exceptions of you and J, Who deserve the weight of Vampire society on their heads. Any of them will tell you that they are innocent. But you and I know that the innocent voice fs usually small and often drowned in an ocean of heartlessness, We know also the power of the Justicars and the danger of their whims. Vou will find a computer file enclosed in this package containing the names of those on the Red List. You understand that the information could be out of date. | do try to keep up on the politics of the List; call ita pet project of mine if you ike: However, my contacts are not as reliable as they have been in the past.You'll note that my own name occupies the top of the List. | hope this does not surprise you, The Red List was compiled itt the United States daring the thitties, a time when Hoover, the head of the FBI, assembled his own register of enemies. Of course, the Camarilla was not immune to the political tides sweeping the world in that era, Their two-centary war with the Sabbat in the New World left them in a perpetual state of anxiety. It was a time for dissent, indecision and broken rules, Such chaos, my darling, and such mouth-wateriag ruthlessness! It was a glorious time to be in power, During that time, the Justicar of Clan Ventrue was replaced by an impostor: me. | held his position for fite years, manipulating the vast resources of the bloodline as well as removing enemies I've acquired through the centuries. Don’t ask me how | did it. It’s a matter of record now; | am not the sort to boast on past successes, nor do ! relinquish personal secrets. Even before 1937, when | was discovered and forced to flee, the Camarilla had toyed with the idea of creating a special Blood Hunt to deal with threats to the sect at large. When | was unearthed (excuse the pun), the half- hearted debate became a focused imperative. Oh, but | frightened them so badly. The Red List was compiled in the wake of my departure after the Vencrue appointed anew Justicar. The humiliated clan fairly shoved it down the throat of the Camarilla. q Their first order of business was the creation of the Alastor, a special group of Archons devoted specifically to the hunting of the Anathema, as the occupants of the Red List were soon known. At first, these hunters had some » impressive successes. They moved in silently and murdered Anathema who didn't even know that the Red List existed, much less that they were on it. We know how hard itis for the Toreador to keep secrets. Give thema soap- box, and they will stand on it and blab until the sun comes up. The cocracy of the List was broken only a decade after it was formed. During that era, considering that I was the first priority for execution, | busied myself killing any Alastor who got close, After the losses sustained by my efforts, the Justicars finally decided to open the hunt to the rest of the Camatilla. lewas 4 perfect response to a perfect tactic. ! had them running around like rats in a maze. For a brief while, my kind was au endangered species. The rabble of the Camarilla's lowest rungs saw an easy way to move up the ladder of prestige simply by bringing me (andthe others) to justice. Obviously, the nextlogical| thing for meto do Was to slaughter numerous thrill-seekers. They needed the f fear of Kernintiri put into them, and bloodshed soon cooted their fever for hunting ns. For these weekend warriors, bringing in my carcass wasn't worth the visk of getting slaughtered, especially when the reward was little more than a pat on the back from their oppressors. There were otherprobtems devetoping forthe Justivarsus well. See lucky Brujah punk took down an Anathema and actually committed diablerie on hint. Can you imagine the uproar? Of course, she was added to the List and hilled a year later, But the Justicars were left with the problem of incentive. The fervor to kill Anathema was understandably dwindling. Vour garden- | variety neonate was hiding whenever it Was merely suggested that | was in i town. Vou've probably heard many of the remors | started during that time. — spread them cleverly through mortal journalists; they are vampires in their own right, are they not? In the early seventies, the Justicars invented the Trophy, a mark of distinction and honor granted to a sect member who captured or killed an © Anathema and brought proof of hie vietory, The Trophy translated to little + more than a bribe, quickly adding (uel to the five of Camarilla polities. Now » there is a sudden renewed interest in hunting the Anathema, All we can do ishide well and inspire enough fear to make the hunters careless. For me, it’s a sport I've enjoyed for millennia, but it still annoys me that the damn Justicars outmanenvered me a half-century ago. If you ask me, there should be seven more spaces on the List reserved for them. Or maybe we should just point the journalists in their direction. Still, the Justicars do continue to make awful blunders. Take the newest trend. For those street-walking Kindred who bring in an Anathema, but who are not Alastors (or even Archons) to begin with, there is a special prize. These lucky heroes are inducted into the Alastors'ranks. | auess the Tusticars figure that if you did it once, you can do it again, Tatk about job security. Idoube this trend will last long, though. The mortality rates among these grandfathered-in Alastors are, I've heard, much higher than those of the well-trained veterens., To me, surviving a second encounter with an Anath- ema is like asking lightning to strike twice the same place. Now the nineties are here. Who knows what wilt happen? Obviously, the Anathema have been galvanized to adapt to the danger. We are becoming} feeding on their ruin. four reflection of Kindred vircue is vite, hen shouldn'e our crimes become the epitome of vileness? x We have no chance for redemption or reprieve. None of us, Valerius. It really doesn’t matter what we did or who we pissed off, We advance in the hierarchy of our sins, sins committed in defense of our lives. We justify our existence on the Red List by defying its makers. The original list often has now evolved to thirteen. No donbe, it will become more in the future as the Sig Night approaches. In elasing, dike taremind poh of the oneloced computer file. It bobitaine an inventory of the names, histories (as much as | eould gather) and other information on the current members of our exclusive club. I've even included copies of our wanted posters, in case you haven't had the pleasure of reading one in some Toreador bathroom. | am positive that three of the Anathema on the List are no longer alive; your name has filled one of their places. Whatever your warped plans, the information should be enough to sustata your efforts. Keep in mind that if one of us is taken down, the List is te-prioritized and another name is put somewhere in the dacuum. |, of course, am far too fond of my place at the top to give it up. Vou'll hear more of the terrors that Vl bring to the Kindred in the nights to come. In time, the Camarilla will understand how wise it was to put me at the very top of the List. I'l continue to use Alastors as my scratching posts, and you will too, if you have half a~ brain. Atvacitio: committed by any one of ns strengthans'the fearthatule all } uise as weapons.
