Kent By Night

The last hundred years have seen some dramatic changes in Kent when it comes to the Kindred and their Courts, more so perhaps in the last 15 years alone

For the last twenty years Kent has been considered Europes only recognized Autarkis State, governed principally by the (considered by many Rogue) Tremere.

Dominique StSyr has been the nominated figurehead for the domain, ruling from the isolated Isle of Sheppey, she has taken the title Govener and sometimes Duchess if she feels like rubbing noses in it.

Not many people know a great deal about Dominique, other than she was at some point in the 17th century a mistress to a prominant theologian & scholar and learned a great deal from him before she was embraced.

What is known however is that 15 years ago she successfully foiled a Sabbat plan to infiltrate & control kent, with the aid of a speedily created coterie many of whom are still existing as her advisors or go-betweens with the Caitiff who inhabit kent.

(This relates to the initial Sheppey By Night game)

Dominique has never fully revealed just how many Kindred dwell within the Kentish Borders, however in one show of arms ten years ago, over three hundred Kindred turned up to aid her in repelling both Sabbat & Camarilla who insisted on using kent as a battleground.

Whether they all come from Kent or were simply called in as a favour repaid has never been commented on openly.

Last year Dominique was recalled to Vienna for three months, but has since returned to Kent and has since declared Kent to once more be a province dedicated to the Camarilla and that all past sins will be forgiven in a new Court providing all continue to do as they done before, adhere to the rules of the Masquerade.

There has been some outcry at this, however her offer of "all sins forgiven" is rather enticing...

For now Kent has a "Business as usual" policy that has been enforced by Dominiques assistants, Gareth, Craig & Alexander...
