The Quinzel Files: Psychiatrist's Forenote
Dear AJ,
Since the disappearance of my sire (may his soul rot in hell), it has been far easier for me to have proper access to the other children of Malkav in Ashford, and provide them with proper psychotherapy to those in need. Nevertheless, this is time-consuming and my position (and seemingly endless, and often pointless, meetings of the Council of Primogen) take up more of my time than I would like.
I appreciate you helping me in keeping an eye on some of them. The following files attempt to give the most up-to-date assessment and detail on each of them. Primogen Marina Vasilyeva has been kind enough to grant us access to the Nosferatu's SchreckNET files - at least some of them (and likely redacted or limited versions - although every bit of information helps) and I have provided links to the files where available. I believe the SchreckNET files areas of biographic information and tips for diplomacy may be worth checking up.

- Prognosis: Paranoia (faked).
Prognosis
Patient had struck me as strange from the beginning. She was highly reluctant to receive therapy, obfuscating this as part of her paranoia and claiming that I was "an Illuminati stooge" seeking to keep tabs on her for the Illuminati. She was reluctant to talk about herself under this claim, although she always attempted to steer the conversation towards learning about other kindred - at times being difficult to keep professional and confidentiality due to the subtle nature she was able to steer conversations to extract the information she wanted - a lesser psychologist would have likely have been successfully manipulated. I believe she attempted to Dominate me on at least one occasion but was unsuccessful - leading to her frustration and faking paranoia episodes to cut the sessions short.
Ultimately my suspicions proved correct, though she managed to deceive me nonetheless. I came to suspect she was not actually a child of Malkav and that her paranoia was a (very well faked) act to deflect probing into her background, which I assumed may have been likely that she was a Caitiff or perhaps had gone rogue from a clan that dominates and supervises its cainites, such as the Tremere. However in the end it was revealed that her real name was actually Grace Williams and that she was a Lasombra as well as the Sabbat Black Hand war-leader of the Crusade in Ashford.
Other Information
I can't help but feel that had I perhaps been less concerned about diagnosing and treating her paranoia I may have got some hint of the truth - and perhaps unlives could have been saved. But ultimately I am grateful simply that my clan suffered less than most, and that she did not kill me when she had (many) opportunities to do so. Nonetheless, I feel a degree of shame and guilt as to my self-perceived failings, which I suspect I may now be suffering from "survivor's guilt."
Grace was killed at the end of the Sabbat Crusade; although the actual killing blow that ended the Crusade was dealt by Valerie Leigh of Clan Senya, the childe of the Senya Primogen, I take pride and satisfaction in knowing that the attack was led by my childe AJ (at least insofar as the Camarilla kindred involved were concerned) and made possible by the assistance of former-Autarkis (and Grace's former mentor) Tatjana who he tracked down and convinced to negotiate with the Camarilla to provide the assistance and information that ultimately ended the war.
As for Grace - may the Abyss take her soul and consume it utterly.

Patient Profile: Nowack, Seth
Full Article: Seth Nowack
- Real/Birth Name: Seth Nowack.
- Preferred Name: Seth Nowack.
- Mortal Alias: Seth Nowack.
- Place of Origin: Ashford, California, USA.
- Height: 5'9"
- Occupation: Private Security.
- Apparent Age: Mid-20s.
- Embraced: 1968.
- Sire: Unknown.
- Prognosis: Grandiose Delusions.
Prognosis
Patient suffered from Grandiose Delusions. Perhaps as a result of being a former Toreador ghoul, and the events surrounding his Embrace (see other notes), patient believed he was a Toreador. Although he was courteous to the Malkavian Clan, he was adamant that he was a Toreador and Genevieve Montclair was his sire - and if pushed too hard or given evidence to the contrary could get hostile; although he was otherwise a popular and likable man.
Other Information
Patient used to be a US Marine during his mortal days, enrolling at the minimum statutory age and serving two tours with distinction. He retired from the military to get into private security. This led to him becoming one of Genevieve Montclair's security details and ghoul. He was embraced during one of Montclair's PR PR events by an unknown kindred - likely a feeding gone wrong, or perhaps a stalker/troublemaker he had to handle and was overpowered. He has no recollection of the actual Embrace (likely due to Dominate reprogramming of his memories by his sire to cover the illegal embrace) and believes that he was Embraced by Genevieve herself (see prognosis). He developed an enfatuation for her that came close to obsessive, and was constantly with her as security or a groupie.
Unfortunately, the patient was with Genevieve Montclair during the Opera House massacre and gave his life to protect her from the Sabbat Attack. Although Ms Montclair seems to have little qualms or grief over Seth's sacrifice for her, it would at least have made Seth happy to know that his sacrifice did enable Ms Montclair to escape unscathed.
Personal Addendum: I think the wrong kindred died that day.
