Jesus Ramirez is an influential Ventrue Anarch of the 10th generation. He is Salvador Garcia's right hand man and de facto leader of El Hermandad.
Biography[]
Very little is known about Jesus Ramirez, although most people assume that he is one of Salvador's get. He appears to be absolutely loyal to Salvador, who in fact, leaves him in charge of his barony during his frequent travels to other regions.
Jesus is actually not Salvador’s progeny at all, but comes from Nicaragua, where he was created by a Spanish Ventrue named Don Cristian de Leon Negro to act as his eternal servant. Jesus was Blood Bound to his master and, although he never gave up the struggle to maintain his own identity, he was unable to overcome the effects of the Bond. When Don Cristian was killed in 1978 by the Brujah-led Sandinistas, Jesus was afraid that he would be tarred with the same brush as his master and fled north to the Free States.
When Jesus arrived in L.A., he became involved in the large Nicaraguan community there. Salvador saw in him the makings of a leader, and took him under his wing. Since then, Jesus has always been found at Salvador’s side, fighting for freedom at every turn.
As the de facto leader of El Hermandad, Jesus wields considerable power in the L.A. Kindred community. He is widely respected as a clear and level-headed thinker. He is Salvador’s closest friend, and often acts to calm down his highly emotional comrade; people wishing to make contact with Salvador would do well to befriend Jesus.
Jesus is the arbiter. When all others are losing their heads, his is the voice of cool reason. He speak softly and calmly. However, when he comes to a conclusion, he can become very stubborn.
