Gloria Martinez

Gloria Martinez is a Brujah Baron from Los Angeles, active since the 1970s. She rules over the barony of Whittier, California.

Biography
Gloria was a girl living in the barrio, running with gangs until she decided she wanted to leave it all behind. As fate would have it, one night Salvador Garcia pulled over his car and beckoned her to come, which Gloria could do nothing but obey. A week later, Gloria successfully tracked down Garcia. She gave him an ultimatum; either kill her, or turn her into one of the undead. Garcia was highly impressed with Gloria's bluster, and turned her into one of the Kindred.

Gloria adjusted quickly to life as a vampire, and with the help of her sire she took control of the gang of vampires that had ruled Whittier and became its baron. Garcia instilled in her the belief that she should use her new-found powers to help protect and defend her community, rather than escape. Since then, Gloria has ruled Whittier with a tight rein, and mostly tries to remain uninvolved in any other Kindred's problems.

Unknown to Gloria and most others, she was actually a pawn of Petrodon, who had planned to use her and select others to turn on the Anarchs when the Camarilla finally decided to attack the Free State. However, it appears that this never came to pass as Petrodon was assassinated in 1997.
