	Braxton is infamous for having a variety of secret identities which he uses for everything from hunting or relating to mortals incognito or liaising with contacts. Many of these identities even have full legal identities. In 2003 he created the persona of Maurice LeRochette, a Toreador neonate and tattooist, as part of an undercover investigation/infiltration of Anarch activities. During this time he ended up having an affair with a Ventrue neonate named [[Lisa Polarine (WoD)\|Lisa Polarine]]. Lisa was considered an outcast by the Ventrue clan who did their best to ensure she remained rock bottom. Originally underestimating her, they brought her down low but underestimated her financial wizardry and investments that even the Ventrue could not touch without serious efforts, more than they were willing to put into someone they underestimated. Lisa managed to putchase the historic, though dilapidated Padre Hotel, to the Ventrue's surprise - but they then did everything they could to put her in legal restrictions on operations and ability to renovate the hotel. With most of her financial savings invested in the hotel, Lisa struggled to make ends meet - but was defiant against her clan ~~and became~~ an Anarch.

With most of her financial savings invested in the hotel, Lisa struggled to make ends meet - but was defiant against her clan. Instead of breaking her, the Ventrue Board ultimately pushed her into becoming an Anarch.

	Braxton claims he never meant to hurt or manipulate Lisa, but he knew he was mutually blood-bound to Jade, and did not reveal this to Lisa, who was foolish and naive enough to share The Kiss with each other - believing they would be mutually bonding which would strengthen their love. The result was that Lisa became bound to Braxton, but not the reverse - a very one-sided relationship. After Braxton's investigations were over, he revealed the truth of who he really was to Lisa and, for a brief time, continued being lovers with her. Until Jade decided she was tired of humouring her paramour's flight of fancy, and stole him back effortlessly thanks to both her charms, their natural love as well as their mutual blood bond.

	Although Braxton does not have a construction company of his own (some say "yet") he actively employs both [[Christoph_Kliethermes_(WoD)\|Kliethermes Consult]] and [[Belle_Azevedo_(WoD)#Mortal_Society\|Azevedo Construction]] to build new properties such as his Emerald Inn hotels, Emerald Pubs, and various housing communities. Emerald Holdings is the company within the Donahoe Group that does the Real Estate, which covers both normal commercial selling of properties as well as renting/leasing to both public and corporate clients, and being subcontracted by the Donahoe Group to handle the real estate and construction of upcoming properties. Indeed, Braxton has learned from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDonald%27s#Business_model McDonald's]] and made a fortune simply by Emerald Holdings buying up prime land and developing on it, then leasing the land to communities or businesses who wish to operate on it. This also means that Braxton has many holdings scattered around Ashford which can be used as alternate/emergency havens for himself or allies, especially when he wants to use a new cover identity.

			=== Majordomo: Alfred Pertwee ===
			[[File:Senya - Braxton Donahoe (Alfred).jpg\|350px\|thumb\|right\|Alfred Pertwee, Braxton's loyal ghoul]]
			Those who have had any kind of interaction with Braxton will likely have noticed the presence of a man seemingly in his late 40s going by the name Alfred Pertwee. Alfred always wears smart suits whilst working and those in the know might recognise them as Aspetto suits - tailored suits with ballistic mesh lining. Very expensive - which says a lot about either Alfred's salary or how much Braxton values him. All kindred know that Alfred has been Braxton's ghoul since the Second World War, and is very loyal and knows his master well and serves him with distinction.

			The actual truth is a little more intricate. Indeed they have been acquainted since the Second World War. Alfred was a combat medic of the nascent British Special Air Service in 1943 and served under Braxton in deep infiltration aiding the French Resistance, with Alfred pretending to be a medic. Although Alfred was mortal, he was loyal to his officer and they became friends. When Braxton embraced their Resistance contact Yvette, Alfred remained with them as his permanent ghoul - the first time Braxton kept a ghoul with long-term intention, having previously used and replaced them frequently as required. Alfred has been with Braxton and a ghoul long enough that were he kindred, would be considered an Ancilla. Although Braxton has offered Alfred the Embrace various times, Alfred has refused - feeling he can better serve Braxton as a ghoul, and "no desire to relinquish the pleasures of beer and footie under the sun". Braxton has always treated Alfred more like a progeny than a ghoul, training him accordingly and, due to Braxton's generation and Alfred's length of service, Alfred is capable of Discipline levels above most normal ghoul vassals, approximately equal to thin-blooded vampires of the 14th generation. Alfred is capable enough and knows Braxton so well, in fact, that he is capable of using Apparitionem to make himself look like Braxton. Although it is not a flawless reconstruction, it is more than good enough to fool most people and this serves Braxton well as Alfred frequently makes daytime appearances pretending to be his master.

			Most people simply know Alfred as the polite British ghoul butler, but in practice, he is closer to an older neonate junior partner. He is quite capable of handling himself and serves as Braxton's chauffeur, butler and household majordomo, as well as a personal bodyguard and head of the household security. He is often "in" on Braxton's secret plans, which he may not sure even with other clan members. He is not to be underestimated.

	* [https://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/grimm-family-compound/view/google/ Emerald Estate] [[File:Donahoe Mansion.jpg\|~~450px~~\|thumb\|right\|The Emerald Estate]]- although Braxton has many holdings around Ashford which he can use for his various identities, this is his main Haven, ie place of residence although, curiously, not his Domain (as regards kindred rights as hunting grounds). It is one of the largest mansions in Ashford, situated in a 45-acre plot of land located in the Golden Oaks district of southwest Ashford. The main mansion itself is large and opulent, having grown over the years since originally built in 1993, and comprised around 10 luxury guest rooms with en-suite bathrooms, as well as a large main bedroom, dining hall, ballroom, cinema/games room, outdoor swimming pool, indoor hot tub, basketball half-cour, and wine cellar, amongst other facilities. Behind the mansion is a small arboretum, with a shrine-like area where Braxton's sword "EJ" is prominently placed, though few people understand why it's placed in such a natural and seemingly random environment, rather than displayed prominently in the mansion itself. In addition to the large mansion itself, on the grounds, there are also various other buildings including a "small" (comparative) house which is the personal property of his long-time ghoul majordomo (and some say, actual friend) Alfred Pertwee, a large garage that houses his personal collection of vehicles (known as "the fleet") and a separate building for security, live-in staff and is the data centre for the estate and the Donahoe Group of Companies. The estate has a large body of water which is officially considered a pond, but many argue is in fact a small lake. Braxton prefers to refer to it as the pond, as that gives the impression it will be smaller than it actually is - being large enough that it has its own pier, speedboat, two bridges to cross and sustains enough life that guests can do fishing there. The pond was artificially created but is fed through underground waterways by the nearby Buena Vista Canal. The estate is virtually walled by a thick canopy of trees, and then literally walled by an imposing and thick 20-foot tall wall made out of hardened material that makes it impossible to climb without professional gear. The wall is lined with many CCTV cameras and sensors that can detect the use of such gear, which causes a network of poles to spring up from the top of the wall and open up side-sections for an effective fence extending the height by an extra ten feet of reinforced, electrified fence. The main entry point to the estate has a large double-car width known as "the portcullis" with a nearby security house. It is actually modern in manufacturing and is actually quite silent, which Braxton found anti-climatic, and he had a set of speakers built into a concealed hollow by the portcullis which plays the sound of medieval iron portculis being opened.		* [https://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/grimm-family-compound/view/google/ Emerald Estate] [[File:Donahoe Mansion.jpg\|500px\|thumb\|right\|The Emerald Estate]]- although Braxton has many holdings around Ashford which he can use for his various identities, this is his main Haven, ie place of residence although, curiously, not his Domain (as regards kindred rights as hunting grounds).

	* [https://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/grimm-family-compound/view/google/ Emerald Estate] - although Braxton has many holdings around Ashford which he can use for his various identities, this is his main Haven, ie place of residence although, curiously, not his Domain (as regards kindred rights as hunting grounds). It is one of the largest mansions in Ashford, situated in a 45-acre plot of land located in the Golden Oaks district of southwest Ashford. The main mansion itself is large and opulent, having grown over the years since originally built in 1993, and comprised around 10 luxury guest rooms with en-suite bathrooms, as well as a large main bedroom, dining hall, ballroom, cinema/games room, outdoor swimming pool, indoor hot tub, basketball half-cour, and wine cellar, amongst other facilities. Behind the mansion is a small arboretum, with a shrine-like area where Braxton's sword "EJ" is prominently placed, though few people understand why it's placed in such a natural and seemingly random environment, rather than displayed prominently in the mansion itself. In addition to the large mansion itself, on the grounds, there are also various other buildings including a "small" (comparative) house which is the personal property of his long-time ghoul majordomo (and some say, actual friend) Alfred Pertwee, a large garage that houses his personal collection of vehicles (known as "the fleet") and a separate building for security, live-in staff and is the data centre for the estate and the Donahoe Group of Companies. The estate has a large body of water which is officially considered a pond, but many argue is in fact a small lake. Braxton prefers to refer to it as the pond, as that gives the impression it will be smaller than it actually is - being large enough that it has its own pier, speedboat, two bridges to cross and sustains enough life that guests can do fishing there. The pond was artificially created but is fed through underground waterways by the nearby Buena Vista Canal. The estate is virtually walled by a thick canopy of trees, and then literally walled by an imposing and thick 20-foot tall wall made out of hardened material that makes it impossible to climb without professional gear. The wall is lined with many CCTV cameras and sensors that can detect the use of such gear, which causes a network of poles to spring up from the top of the wall and open up side-sections for an effective fence extending the height by an extra ten feet of reinforced, electrified fence. The main entry point to the estate has a large double-car width known as "the portcullis" with a nearby security house. It is actually modern in manufacturing and is actually quite silent, which Braxton found anti-climatic, and he had a set of speakers built into a concealed hollow by the portcullis which plays the sound of medieval iron portculis being opened.		* [https://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/grimm-family-compound/view/google/ Emerald Estate] - although Braxton has many holdings around Ashford which he can use for his various identities, this is his main Haven, ie place of residence although, curiously, not his Domain (as regards kindred rights as hunting grounds).
