Lord Thomas Blackwell

Lord Blackwell was born in the year of our lord 1850 in the heart of London. Having spent several years as a member of British society he was later embraced in 1881.

One of the more influential members of the Blackwell family is Lord Thomas Blackwell, a member of the Nosferatu clan of vampires who was ‘stolen’ from the Tremere before he could be embraced. Though it cost the life of his sire, the Nosferatu wanted to send the Tremere in 1880’s London a message: do not think that you can ignore us. So, even though Lord Thomas’ embrace was planned by the family and orchestrated for a number of years, After his transformation, Thomas removed himself from much of the family’s more public notice and concerned himself with increasing their access to the flow of information which permeated the supernatural world. A focal point to his activities was delving into the subject of the origins of vampires.

Thomas involved himself with a number of secret societies within the metaphysical community of London of that era and continued to remain involved, though not always in person, even after his embrace. He was an integral part of shaping the family’s influence within the evolution and formation of secret societies in England and the American colonies Russell Blackwell: One of the branches of the family that was thought lost to all supernatural contact - purposefully so if the rumor mills of ‘the Aunts’ can be believed, Russell came from non-magical stock. Unfortunately for the family, the likelihood for him to pop out a half-dozen kids to build up a dominant potential for magic in the household was low. Russell had no plans for marriage or children. The Aunts, however, had their own plans.
