Albert von Welf

Ritter Albert von Welf is a classically trained Brujah of the “Warrior-Poet” variety that was common in the dark ages. Ritter von Welf sided with what became the Camarilla not due to loyalty to the elders of his clan, but of his own honour as a knight. As such Ritter von Welf is a rarity among his clan in modern nights, a philosopher and scholar, he seeks out deeper meaning in the world through his own contemplation and martial prowess. Ritter von Welf has been the Primogen of clan Brujah since his arrival, earning the right to rule via ritual combat. Every year or so a new challenger rises up to succeed him, but all have been found wanting.

Merits and Flaws

 * Unbondable - The most important of his merits, the one that proves that he chose to fight alongside the Camarilla by his own accord.
