Sylum Announcement: Old Archive

 

There was a reason we moved to the new archive a few years ago, because the old one was no longer supported and was on it’s way out.

I kept it open because some of the old stories were still on there, that weren’t going to be moved to the new archive.   This included Family & Evolution.

Well it’s finally died.   The link will not take you to it anymore.

Yes we are still working on Family.   Honestly guys it’s been a round 4 years, and the last one and this year hasn’t been the greatest.   We’re working on the edits, slowly but as said hasn’t been a good few years.  So please be patient, but at this moment – Family & Evolution are no longer available.

If someone has a copy – you can ask for it.

Camelot Clan / Character Introduction0

Sylum Inspiration: Callum Lynch

Camelot: Hunter

 

Callum and his twin brother Aguilar were born October 21st in the year of our lord 1460 AD and was in Masyaf.

They’re parents were Assassins, the little they knew of them, was that their father, Sebastiano was from Spain and their mother, Brigit, who was from Ireland.  Their father was trained at Masyaf, who on a mission, fell in love with Brigit, brought her back and trained her.  The two had been killed during the Spanish Inquisition, a year after the boys had been born.  They ended up raised by the Assassin Order, and trained to follow in their parents footsteps.

When they set out on their own missions, Callum went to Ireland, while Aguilar went to Spain.

Callum kept a low profile, finding an a small farm owned by the Lynch family, they took him in, and became the son they never had.  When they died he took over the farm, and used it as a hiding place and information stop.

During one of his own missions, he heard about Il Duce and the vendetta he seemed to be on. He made sure to casually meet him in the pub, only to discover his own mission.

The two became friends, and during a mission when they went after a corrupt Bishop, Callum ended up Turned.

Character Introduction / Serenity Clan0

Sylum Inspiration: Paul Bunyan

Serenity: Hunter

 

There are many hypotheses about the etymology of the name Paul Bunyan. Much of the commentary focuses on a Franco-Canadian origin for the name. Phonetically Bunyan is similar to the Québécois expression “bon yenne!” expressing surprise or astonishment. The English surname Bunyan derives from the same root as bunion in the Old French bugne, referring to a large lump or swelling. Several researchers have attempted to trace Paul Bunyan to the character of Bon Jean or Tit Jean of French Canadian folklore.

For More Information contact the Vampire Council Library

Paul’s family is from the French Canadian, he knows it ties directly back to France, and he’s pretty sure straight to the Good King. He was the youngest son out of 12 siblings. He was also the largest. By the time he reached puberty he was pushing 6ft.

He left the family farm at sixteen, moving around the Canadian wilderness.  He quickly earned a reputation as a lumberjack, able to knock down a tree in one swing.

Paul was never one to settle down found himself in New Orleans, when a call went out for removal of trees to begin building a small town. He presented himself to the foreman and was hired instantly. He liked the community that was building, but was curious about the Plantation that was funding the efforts.

Paul had laughed lightly when he surprised Malcolm, the Foreman, with his philosophies and the fact he was educated. The two found a quick friendship, enjoying the bantering and snark.

At a Harvest Festival that the Plantation had put on, he was called to compete in the Axe competitions. One of the lumberjack’s lost control of the ax, sending it towards the crowd. Paul stepped in and took the blunt of the impact.

He finally discovered what was going on at the Plantation.
