Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland.
Vampire: The Masquerade[]
During the Victorian Age, Edinburgh served as a Toreador stronghold in contrast with the Ventrue London.[1]
Long under the control of Brujah and Toreador interests, Edinburgh was nominally independent from the reach of Mithras' London even when he was declared Prince of the British Isles. However, following the fall of London to the Second Inquisition, the city has finally fallen to the Cult of Mithras. Rallying around Roger de Camden, the Mithraists invaded the city, seeking to make it the new center of their Cult.[2]
Following the city's capture, De Camden declared himself Prince, and forged it into the perfect Camarilla city, as the vampires who callously manipulated mortal interests were replaced with the grip of those trained, practiced, and capable of doing so with the same discretion Mithras used for a millennium across an entire country.[2]
Wraith: The Oblivion[]
Edinburgh is often called the model Necropolis. Featuring a central Citadel, set onto the lower volcanic hill of Castle Rock, with equal quarters for each of the Legions, and a strong series of fortifications around the Necropolis perimeter that have withstood numerous spectral assaults. The council of Anacreons in Edinburgh currently includes representatives from all eight of the Legions. These officials work well together, they move in lockstep when it comes to the interpretation of Stygian law. The reason for this level of cooperation is simple: The city is built on an ancient volcano, and the old crater at Arthur’s Seat houses a Nihil that opens into the Labyrinth. With such an existential threat on their borders, the Anacreons long ago recognized that they didn’t have time for partisan bickering.[3]
