There are several Kindred of great repute in the city. Most will recognize their names, even if they haven't met them personally.

Jacob Holloway - Ventrue - Camarilla Prince
    Holloway is the owner and manager of the upscale Alhambra Hotel. Most of his business is conducted through his ghouls, so it is very rare that a mortal not under his complete control has an opportunity to set eyes upon him. Holloway spent centuries of his unlife as an explorer, researcher and globetrotter, aided by his close friend, Hasan Al-Rashid. The pair settled in Verdant Falls a little over a century ago, and their charisma quickly secured Holloway the position as Prince. Their excellent management of the city, as well as their peerless strength, have kept him in power despite several coup attempts.
    Though Holloway disdains violence, his skill with a rapier is nothing short of remarkable. He is respected by the Camarilla as a just and fair ruler, and feared by his enemies as an Elder of immense power.

Hasan Al-Rashid - Assamite Schismatic - Autarch
    Despite his clan’s reputation, Hasan is abnormally even-tempered, and has an infamous caustic wit. He cares little for politics, and relegates himself to the social niceties his prince does not care for. Hasan enjoys this unique role, as he carries the clout of the Prince, without the obligation of needing to be diplomatic. He usually acts for the Prince when new Kindred announce their presence in the city, and this meeting more often than not ends with Hasan goading the poor fledgling into a frenzy and laughing at the pitiful attempts to destroy him. While he is not officially aligned with the Camarilla, his closeness to the Prince has earned him some degree of disdain from other members of his clan.
    Hasan has a great thirst for knowledge, and a love of history and the occult. However, he is most well-known for his godlike fighting prowess. He has an intimate knowledge of practically every weapon ever to grace the earth, and stories about his exploits range fom the plausible to the outright ridiculous. There is not a single Kindred in the city that does not know his name, and does not feel something when standing in his presence, be it rock star awe, abject fear, or complete loathing.
    Hasan maintains a network of spies, informants and allies in Verdant Falls. Few occurrences escape his personal notice, and when a crime scene needs to be cleaned to uphold the masquerade, it is Hasan's network that ultimately does the legwork.

Msizi "Mik" Nkosi - Akunanse - Camarilla Sherriff
    Msizi, or Mik as he is known to those that cannot pronounce his name, first met Hasan and Jacob during their adventuring days. While the pair was still young, vast amounts of open space without shelter proved a daunting hurdle to their expeditions. The Laibon of Africa proved little help to the outsiders, and it was only when Msizi, an outsider himself, found them that they learned to survive in that harsh land in exchange for an equal measure of knowledge.
    In the devastation and racial persecution that followed the Second Boer War, survival became difficult for Msizi. Jacob was in the midst of building an empire in his new city, and so he was more than willing to return the favour to his old friend. Despite his rank and title among the Kindred, Msizi is very much an outsider, feared by many Kindred for his mastery of the beast, and of course, his horriffic appearance. However, it is these abilities that he uses to keep the Kindred of the city in line.
    Msizi apparently had a haven in Victoria Park (and is rumoured to be the reason it was constructed). However, he was most often found in the Tremere Chantry, or in the woods beyond Taben's Ridge. For some reason, the Garou never bothered him.
    Msizi has been missing for nearly a decade, and his whereabouts are unknown. The Prince refuses to believe his friend is dead, and occasion has not arisen for him to declare a new Sherriff.

Jean Cormier - Tremere Regent - Camarilla Primogen
    Jean is the eldest of his clan in Verdant Falls, and holds the rank of Regent. His chantry operates within the affluent Rosewood district of Verdant Falls. Though he is a notorious recluse, rarely deigning to associate with the lesser clans, he can sometimes be seen in the Alhambra’s VIP commons when he has business with the prince.
    His Chantry houses a wealth of knowledge, and the Regent has taken the bizarre step of offering it freely to all the Kindred of the city. However, the more secret knowledges of his clan are kept under close guard, and outsiders seeking to learn such things are met with swift and brutal punishment.
    Any Kindred new to the city and curious about their nature would do well to visit the chantry. If that newcomer happens to be a Tremere, the visit is mandatory.

Luc Beaumont - Gangrel - Autarch
    Luc's pack is the closest thing to Anarchs that exist in Verdant Falls. They are often referred to as such by ignorant neonates and disdainful elders, but Luc takes offense to such a branding. He and his pack accept the presence of the Camarilla, and largely abide by their rulings. However, Luc has made it clear that he swears no allegiance to anyone but his pack.
    In the past, Luc has recieved much scorn and notoriety for harbouring Kindred under a Blood Hunt, but he has only done this twice. In both incidents, he did not agree with the Prince's ruling.

Mr Seavers - Kiasyd - Autarch
    Mr. Seavers is known only as such, as he and other Kindred are not on a first-name basis. Though the Kiasyd are primarily a Sabbat clan, Mr. Seavers has never claimed allegiance to anyone but himself. He was present when the Camarilla came to Verdant Falls, and made no move to interfere as they built their empire around him. Truly, not even the Garou can recall a time when he was not present. For all intents and purposes, he has always been there. He is content to stay within his haven, venturing out only to tend to his ghouls, and to minor affairs of etiquette.
    Like most Kiasyd, Mr. Seavers is polite to a fault, and expects nothing less of the Kindred who encounter him. Beneath his calm exterior lurks a cruel and vindictive mind, and those that displease him have suffered a myriad of horrible punishments. However, those that treat him respectfully have been the recipients of the luxurious hospitality of his haven. The obvious exception to this rule would be the Malkavians; he has shown remarkable patience and civility when dealing with even the most unruly of their kind.
    The Camarilla remain in contact with Mr. Seavers because of his unparalleled knowledge of the occult. His haven is brimming with ancient tomes from the old world, as well as countless Mi’kmaq artefacts. No Kindred knows more about the horrid past of Verdant Falls than he.
    Those seeking answers must first be known to him – neonates and newcomers needn’t bother – and must demonstrate a thirst for knowledge. Ethical and political affiliations do not seem to concern him, and he has reportedly even granted appointments to werewolves and mortals. His ghouls in the antiquities shop have been known to arrange invitations to his haven. There are few problems he does not know the answer to, and such information is offered freely to houseguests who meet his approval…of course, any polite houseguest knows to bring an appropriate gift with them.
    Anyone foolish enough to attempt to steal from him have quickly learned that his vast knowledge also applies to Kindred disciplines. One treads carefully around such an ancient vampire, but to deliberately anger him provides a Kindred with a quick lesson in just how short one’s unlife can be. Most Kindred in the city have heard at least one horror story about his cruelty, and even the most stalwart vampires feel fear and grudging respect in his presence.
