Travel to New York (Main)

I found a way to enter New York City by ship. The Giovanni graciously received me and guided me to the Prince. I was presented to the Prince of New York, and was able to receive her Hospitality after a successful presentation. (Session 1)

Though I don't own all that much, I did come with some luggage, which got left behind with the Giovanni. They were kind enough to return my luggage, as well as the other crate to be delivered to the Empire State Building (Session 3)

Agency (Main)

I wore a golden cord to Elysium (Session 8) and made contact, establishing proper communication soon after (Session 12)

This is bullshit (Main, Party)

While being introduced, the Brujah primogen burst in to complain about missing Brujah members. (Session 1). I was sent with the other new arrivals to investigate so best not disappoint the Prince. We visited a shop and a very strange church, and learned they disappeared in Toreador Territory (Session 2). We found some clues (Session 5) and with the help of Levi Wise and Markus Gottschalk we discovered it was related to a military aircraft plan being stolen and a Brujah rivalry. (Session 6). We wrote a report which was presented in front of all the Primogen (Session 7)

Other New Arrivals (Friends, Party)

I was introduced to Michaella, the prince of New York, together with three other new arrivals, Dwayne "DMZ" Thompson, Isaac Franklin, and Kevin White (Session 1).

After working together on some matters, Kevin White was kind enough to give me a 'Page', a device that does something. I think its supposed to deliver messages or something. Luckily, I also managed to secure an address for Dwayne "DMZ" Thompson (Session 8) and for Kevin (Session 9) and Isaac Franklin as well. We should now communicate much more easily

Some time later, Lindsey Barnes arrived in New York and I tried to help her out. Shes a tad frustrating but I think deep down she's a good person, and in the end her introduction went off without a hitch, so looks like we have a nice little group now! (Session 10)

Court of the Prince (Court, Friends)

Tamara Patterson took me shopping for clothes (Session 3), and moreover she comforted me when I was sad. I think its safe to say we are friends now (Session 6)

Carol Meadows and I share a building and we often go to Elysium together (Session 8). After staying there a while, I noticed my presence in the Empire State Building was disturbing to the staff so I made an effort to prevent future transgressions (Session 9) and helped out with some chores so Mr. Worthington and Julia know I won't be any trouble (Session 10).

Since Carol helped me out after the Gentleman's Club disaster, I know she's my friend (Session 17)

Prevent a clash (Elysium)

TODO: IMAGE

On my first Elysium, I met loads of new people with a wide variety of outfits. I managed to prevent a clash between Markus Gottschalk and Levi Wise (Session 4), (Session 5).

The next Elysium was at a fighting ring and I had to keep Carlo Savio and Samuel "Schooler" Schuyler apart this time, which I managed by making sure the two couldn't make eye contact (Session 9)

Find a church to attend (Faith)

New York has a lot of churches, and I had to find the best one to attend. With the aid of Julia I learned there is a Russian Orthodox Church in Brooklyn of the right kind that I can attend (Session 2). It has a diverse crowd of Russian refugees and I think I will fit in nicely there! (Session 7)
