Boukephos, also known as Francisco Diego Del Belmonte, is a childe of the Lasombra Antediluvian.
Biography
He was a greek philosopher who was very active in the Aegan Sea after his Embrace. By the time of Rome, he was a regular attendant of the Eternal Senate.
Junior to Montano but senior to Gratiano, Boukephos was still a force to be reckoned within the Lasombra hierarchy. To the young cainites during the War of Princes, Boukephos was the one of their elders with his feet in that century.
Like his sire, Boukephos was a notorious wanderer, often traveling, abscent from politics while educating his childer and grandchilder (all the way down to his great-grandchilder, as Talley the Hound can verify). He is one of three elder Lasombra that knows the Obtenebration power of Tchernabog, and was considered one of the true masters of Obtenebration (the Antediluvian and Montano being the two others).
According to the Encyclopaedia Vampirica, Boukephos was destroyed in a Sabbat-Camarilla conflict on the East Coast of the United States in 1999.
