Nasrin Karim

1. Identity.

• • Nasrin contacts the PC(s) after observing unusual activity in the city. She suspects covert 2nd Inquisition activity in the City, and seeks proof. She tasks the PCs with identifying their operations.

  • The PC(s) must gather intelligence by observing unusual characters, intercepting communications, or infiltration. They may uncover one or more surveillance operations targeting Kindred havens or gathering places, and maybe even a connection to a mysterious handler.

  • The PC(s) delivers the evidence to Nasrin, who confirms ties to the 2nd Inquisition. In gratitude, she offers a small favor, such as access to her domain for hunting or use of her ghouls' services.

2. Supremacy.

• • Armed with intel likely provided by the PC(s), Nasrin identifies a 2nd Inquisition safehouse interfering with Kindred affairs. She requests the PC(s) to accompany her and her ghouls to sabotage the threat.

  • The PC(s) infiltrate teh safehouse with Nasrin. The task is twofold: distract the operators and sabotage the equipment while avoiding detection. Complications may arise when the operatives call for reinforcements, or the location is booby-trapped.

  • With the equipment sabotaged, Nasrin praises the PC(s)'s skills but warns them of the Inquisition's resilience. She rewards the PC(s) with a rare piece of intelligence (likely one of the other Kindred's secrets) or a valuable item confiscated from the site.

3. Ultimatum.

• • Nasrin discovers that key 2nd Inquisition figures are consolidating resources and intelligence for a deeper investigation into San Augustin. Nasrin plans to give them a reason to shift their focus elsewhere. She asks the PC(s) to sabotage their operations while simultaneously feeding false information that makes the city appear "clean" of Kindred activity, while drawing their attention to Miami, which is overrun with Sabbat.

  • The PC(s) must coordinate efforts to plant misinformation - this could involve falsifying reports, using mortal contacts to spread rumors of activity elsewhere, or framing unrelated incidents to look like Kindred activity in Miami. Meanwhile, Nasrin or another operative quietly sabotages key pieces of Inquisition equipment, such as surveillance gear or encrypted files, to render their operation ineffective. Complications may include the Inquisition cross-referencing evidence, requiring quick thinking and adaptive solutions.

  • If the PC(s) are successful, the 2nd Inquisition determines that San Augustin is not worth the resources to investigate further and begins to withdraw. Nasrin rewards the PC(s) with a personal boon, perhaps information, access to her resources. She emphasizes the importance of vigilance, warning that complacency could invite the Inquisition back.

4. Legacy.

• • With the bulk of the 2nd Inquisition's presence gone, Nasrin turns her attention to the remnants of their operation. She tasks the PC(s) with quietly dismantling leftover elements, such as dormant surveillance devices, sleeper agents, and mortals who may still be investigating Kindred activity independently. The goal is to leave no trace of Inquisition influence in the city.

  • The PC(s) follow leads to identify potential threats, such as academics studying vampiric folklore, disillusioned Inquisition members seeking revenge, or compromised Kindred who may unwittingly expose the Masquerade. Their challenge is to neutralize these threats nonviolently - through discrediting evidence, arranging plausible deniability, or steering mortals away from the truth without raising suspicion.

  • With no lingering evidence or actors to maintain an Inquisition presence, Nasrin rewards the PC(s) with greater access to her domain or specialized services (a boon?). She begins hinting at her broader ambitions, framing the victory as not just survival but a chance to reshape the Kindred's relationship with the city's mortal and supernatural elements.

5. Nasrin Karim.

• • Nasrin, now free from the immediate threeat of the 2nd Inquisition, reveals her ultimat ambition: to lay the groundwork for a new order in San Augustin. She envisions a future where Kindred operate under principles of mutual benefit rather than dusty old lineage-based power structures. She tasks the PC(s) with helping her establish this vision by forging alliances, gathering intelligence, and eroding the influence of the city's most entrenched Kindred power players - all while keeping these moves quiet.

  • The PC(s) work alongside Nasrin to subtly sway prominent Kindred figures, such as manipulating city politics to weaken a rival's influence or encouraging senior Kindred to back Nasrin's meritocratic vision. Along the way, they must also confront the challenges of Nasrin's own secrets. Her history as a diablerist and her association with Rex Velvet threaten to derail her plans if exposed. The PC(s) must decide whether to protect her, reveal her secrets, or exploit them for their own gain.

  • If successful, Nasrin cements her position as a reformist leader in San Augustin, ushering in a new era of Kindred cooperation and modernization. The PC(s) earn her unwavering trust and gain substantial influence in the city. If her secrets are exposed or her plans falter, Nasrin becomes a polarizing figure - either retreating into isolation or becoming a relentless enemy.

• Diablerie.

  • Nasrin is a diablerist. She carefully protects this secret, and it is somewhat expected of her because of her Clan, but if the evidence were to come forward, it would give nearly any Kindred a potent weapon to wield against her.

• Enemy.

  • Nasrin diablerized the former Gangrel Baron of Anastasia Island & was allowed to do so as payment for removing the Inquisition Threat at the time.

• History.

  • Nasrin worked with Rex Velvet in his former life, though he doesn't seem to remember her, she knows who he is.
