Venice (WOD)

Venice is a city in northeastern Italy sited on a group of 117 small islands separated by canals and linked by bridges. It is located in the marshy Venetian Lagoon which stretches along the shoreline, between the mouths of the Po and the Piave Rivers.

Overview
The dominant structure in Venice's skyline is the building colloquially referred to as the Mausoleum, the fortress of Clan Giovanni. Thinly disguised as a bank, this sprawling black glass skyscraper casts a shadowover the city's famous canals and ancient buildings. Kindred visitors receive hostile stares and cold shoulders at best; at worst, their reception by the Giovanni is much less pleasant. Kindred with their wits about them don't visit Venice on a mere whim.

Despite their fear of the Giovanni, though, the Nosferatu have a presence among the bowels of the city. Here, they traffic in secrets and try to stay hidden from the Giovanni, who hunt them on a regular basis. Venice has also served as a site for Camarilla Conclaves in past years, and whispers float among Europe's elders that Venice should once again be under their control.
