Daemon Astrophel

Daemon was born as Elias Bjornsen in 1779, in a small coastal town in Norway. He was the son of a wealthy merchant family, renowned for their shrewd business acumen and connections with influential figures. Elias's childhood was filled with the luxuries and privileges afforded to the elite, but he also inherited a sharp mind and a ruthless ambition from his father. In his late teens, Elias became involved in the darker side of his family’s trade, delving into smuggling and illicit deals. It was during one of these dangerous ventures that he caught the eye of a Lasombra elder, who saw potential in his cunning and charisma. In 1809, Elias was Embraced and reborn as Daemon, his mortal life left behind in favor of the eternal night.

Daemon quickly adapted to his new existence, embracing the shadows and the power that came with being Lasombra. He climbed the ranks of the clan with remarkable speed, using his intelligence and strategic mind to outmaneuver rivals and gain favor with his superiors. His ability to manipulate both people and situations made him an invaluable asset, and he thrived in the clandestine world of the Lasombra. However, Daemon’s rise was not without its challenges. He often found himself at odds with the rigid hierarchy and the oppressive traditions of the clan. The Lasombra’s obsession with control and dominance began to chafe at his independent spirit, creating a simmering discontent that grew with each passing decade.

The turning point came in the early 21st century when he met a man by the name Julien. Befriending him, he learned about the ideals of the Anarchs, and their movement and it was thanks to his friendship and openness that he was actually able to make a change in his unlife. Sensing an opportunity, Daemon started secretly communicating with Anarch leaders, intrigued by their ideals of freedom and equality. His disillusionment with the Lasombra’s authoritarian ways pushed him closer to the Anarch cause, and in 1972, he made the bold decision to defect. Daemon’s defection was a significant blow to the Lasombra, as he was a prominent figure within the clan. He took with him not only his extensive knowledge and skills but also a network of contacts and resources. His transition to the Anarch Movement was met with mixed reactions; while some Anarchs were suspicious of his motives, others welcomed the strategic advantage he brought. 

In the Anarch Movement, Daemon has become a key strategist and advisor, using his experience to help organize and strengthen the decentralized faction. His expertise in getting things done and kicking ass has proven invaluable in their ongoing struggle against both the Camarilla and the Sabbat. Despite the challenges, Daemon remains committed to the Anarch ideals, finding a sense of purpose and belonging that eluded him in his former life. 

In the newest chapter of his journey he has made his way back to the person that changed his mind and gave him the will to turn to the cause, Julien. Who was now the regent of Baltimore City, a place that was one bad day away from blowing up into chaos. He hopes to be able to provide aid in some way to an old friend and possibly forge stronger bonds within the community. But that may seem harder than it looked, if that was even possible at this point.
