Prevent a clash

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)

Elysium Locations

I visited the Rooftop Club where they sell blood for money. Apparently its a masquerade friendly club! (Session 13)

Next time, Elysium was held at a gentleman's club - very different than I envisioned. Ravenna Watkins was nice enough to help me out though, I like her now (Session 17)

During the next Elysium at the Metropolitan Opera House, I discovered Christine Metz had a strange relationship with one of the performers. Luckily, we sorted it all out (Session 20)

Next, Elysium was held at something called a disco. The music was really loud and unpleasant, but I did get to dance with Iacomo. I'm not sure we made a lot of sense (Session 22)

Finally, the Elysium event brought in priests from various different denominations, including a Hindu priest who seems to know a bit too much about the masquerade. I managed to convince him we don't actually exist (Session 24)

Market Elysium

We have a charity event for the blood banks in New York. They want to expand to New Jersey, but most Camarilla kindred don't think that's a great idea (Session 29)

Later, we visited The Leprechaun's Treasure, an Irish pub where favours are traded for coins. (Session 35)

The auction house was selling a historic tiara which I just -had- to have. Cierra really came through for me. (Session 38)

Dress Up

Carol asked my help with running the mysterious upcoming Elysium she has planned (Session 67). I helped out by welcoming guests while wearing a mask - the theme is masquerade after all (Session 68). The event was interrupted when someone was attacked by the Sabat. I comforted Carol as she lamented her spoiled plans. I did have to return the dress I borrowed though... (Session 69)

Soon after, it was time for Halloween. Apparently Halloween is an event where we dress up in costumes! I bought materials for an outfit (Session 70). The Prince asked me to make her a costume of an Italian Renaissance lady. It was really short notice but I tried my best, and Markus helped me get additional materials. I went as a fairy (Session 71)! Markus was given an apple for the most beautiful one, but he didn't give it to me... (Session 72) I didn't even win the costume contest, but honestly I didn't deserve it either (Session 73).

Poledancer

Elysium took place in a rather seedy dancing, but as predicted by Chocolat, the dancer named Jaqueline Eslinger was really, really skilled. The Prince will want to see her, and if she performs well, maybe we'll be able to help her find a better place in life (Session 87)! To get her to perform though, I'll need 'references', and Emily suggested I should go visit her with someone to ask about what she needs (Session 90). Emily helped to arrange the necessary references, and when I went to visit Jaqueline with Lindsey, she agreed to come perform (Session 93). I asked Julia if we could have a pole set up in the ballroom for her performance, but she said no... (Session 95) Emily came to me that the appointment needs to be arranged, we talked about how to set it up a bit, and I need to go ask the Prince (Session 96). The Prince said no to the pole, and suggested I ask Miss Eslinger what she needs (Session 98). I arranged for Jacqueline to perform for the Prince next Thursday, and I spoke about her future at Elysium. Nicolas may offer her a chance to dance at his clubs and Christine said she'd try to arrange something for her in Paris. I hope she can manage before Thursday... (Session 99). The dancer made it here, but her performance was -not- to the Prince's liking and I may have angered her. At least Christine managed to come through and we're arranging for some extra training and a trip to France for her (Session 100). I asked Emily to arrange the trip for Jaqueline, so it should soon be sorted (Session 101). Nicolas and Christine both want another demonstration of the dancer (Session 102). Gabriella got her dad to agree to allow the performance at her house (Session 103). Jacqueline left quite an impression on everyone and eventually decided to stay in New York with Nicolas (Session 104)!

New York Holidays

Lindsey and I made plans to go shopping and I thought we were going to meet with the Rockerfellers (Session 89), though I later learned that was a misunderstanding.

American Christmas came soon after, so I went and bought some items and supplies, and I made some gifts. I gave the Prince a plush bunny to cuddle with. The prince gave me some new furs, and Carol got me a Snowglobe of Rockerfeller Square - she's so considerate (Session 91)!

I bought a new dress for the American Christmas Elysium but I think I got the wrong colour - nobody said anything though. At the Elysium, I found out about Santa, I'm not entirely sure how it works yet though and I gave gifts to people, which was wonderful. And when I got Gabriella her gift, she shared her own private ballet room with me (Session 92).

Lindsey and I finally went shopping in Rockerfeller Plaza and it was a lot of fun. Both Isaac and Lindsey both got me a lovely gift as well (Session 93)!

I bought a new gown in preparation for new years (Session 93) We celebrated New Years Eve in the Empire State Building - it went better than the 4th of July despite me being hungry. We also had a second New Years celebration in the monthly Open Elysium - I had to get another gown of course. It was held in the armory and I danced with Nicholas Dejesus (Session 95).

A bit later, I visited the Church to celebrate Orthodox Christmas as well, completing the Holiday celebrations (Session 96).

New People in Town

According to rumours, Nicolas is bringing someone new into the city. They are supposedly from Africa. I went shopping for an outfit for the ceremony of their arrival with Lindsey and Tamara. On the day itself, we discovered another person will be arriving and they might even be a clanless! (Session 102) We witnessed their introduction to the Prince, and I must say that the Traveler - not clanless - named Aruna made a much better impression than Wotan the Toreador. He even pulled me into a date! (Session 103)!

The date went reasonably well, but Lindsey didn't show up, so it was just us. He told me about his family... (Session 104). I tried to arrange an event with Tamara and Carol, but they said they were busy (Session 111). Turned out though that Tamara's plans were cancelled as the Prince took me out instead! And she kissed me! (Session 112)

I reached out to Wotan and Aruna to check up on them. We agreed to meet at the next Elysium. I was also asked to arrange an introduction to Pancake, who apparently hadn't been introduced! (Session 114) I arranged with Julia to set her introduction on March 4th, and agreed with Pancake to shop for a dress on the 2nd (Session 116).

Aruna told me a relative of his had died. Turned out I met his relative at an Elysium some time ago - some Hindu priest I convinced Kindred weren't real. Turned out he died soon after! (Session 116).

Pancake and I visited the shop where I got my first Qi Pao, and bought matching Ruqun outfits for the introduction, mixing debutante white with traditional Chinese (Session 117) and I presented her to the Prince. Since she claimed not to have a sire, the matter of finding her a foster clan remains open, but at least she is in the city legally now (Session 118).

I also spoke to the Keeper about Aruna, but she casted some doubt on his story and told me I'd best leave it alone, so I decided to heed her advice (Session 120).

Stone Tablet

At an auction during Elysium, Cierra wanted to get a Stone Tablet, but the bidding was going very high. I spoke to some of the people involved trying to broker a more reasonable deal. I think I may have helped but I don't think I was the reason she eventually got what she wanted (Session 105)
