Changes: Julia Sowinski

Revision as of 07:28, 17 September 2020

“	There's a silent flame in you, that could become an inferno if left unchecked. I sure hope it will.	”
	— Caren to Julia, just before Embracing her

Julia Sowinski is a Lasombra, and the protagonist of Vampire: The Masquerade - Shadows of New York.

Originally from Poland, Julia and her family emigrated to the United States. Before her Embrace in June 2019, she was an investigative journalist at the New York Lodestar. This came to an abrupt end when her sire Caren, who had designs to sire a childe as a political offering to the city on behalf of Clan Lasombra, began destroying her career and social life as part of the customary practice of ritual hazing. As per the conditions of the Chicago agreement, Caren took the life of Hester Reed as a sacrifice.

In the months following her Embrace and orientation into Kindred society, Julia was made the Lasombra's clan representative in New York City, a position easily mistakable but nowhere remotely comparable in privilege or status as a Primogen. In practice, she was actually tasked with a number of odd duties, including as a Kindred "immigration officer", handling the traffic of vampires who come through New York, under the supervision of Sheriff Qadir al-Asmai.

Besides the Sheriff, and her touchstone, Dakota; Julia commands the respect of few, besides perhaps Katherine Wiese, as well as the Banu Haqim Primogen, Samira.

In March of 2020, Julia was tapped to lead the Camarilla's investigation into the mysterious death of Baron Douglas Callihan. Her future in New York and in the Camarilla hinges critically on the success of her investigation.

Trivia

Julia's mortal career as a journalist is reminiscent of Andrew Emory.
