"How the f*ck do you figure/That I could say 'peace' and the gunshots will cease?"

     Alvin Chorese, aka "Tooth", walked into the office.  His frame was impressive, not unlike the Incredible Hulk compared to the other occupants in the room.  Nevertheless, Tooth felt like a dwarf.  "Sit down," Nicolai said aloud.  Charles Robert, and Emma James sat on either side of Nicolai, as Nicolai stared down Tooth unblinkingly.  As Tooth sat down, Nicolai continued.
     "As you well know, Neil is missing and it is feared that he has suffered final death.  The loss of many of our holdings combined with the inability of our workforce to defend them is utterly unacceptable.  I have had to count on you as my number-one retainer, but at this juncture, we Brujah can no longer accept failure from those of 'inferior blood'.  What do you have to say for yourself?"
     "I have no excuse, sir," Tooth replied, "but I will work harder to assist you in any way I can."  Tooth was anxious and upset.  He was already past over for the embrace once before.  He knew that now his chances were null, and he could barely contain the anger and grief within himself.  Nicolai then casually got up and walked towards and then behind Tooth, while Charles and Emma looked at Tooth emotionlessly. 
     Nicolai's response was worse than Tooth could have possibly anticipated.  "Please, Tooth.  We no longer have patience for the inadequacies of ghouls like you.  We need kindred; kindred that are loyal and dedicated to taking back the docks and the streets of Baltimore.  You're life is no longer useful to us save as another meal."  Tooth could no longer hold in his despair, and just put his head down.
     With that being said and done, Nicolai put his hands on Tooth's shoulders and bared his fangs.  The last thing that Tooth heard before his life ended was, "The time has come.  Welcome to the Brujah."

The Brujah is the last remaining Camarilla clan that has a foothold within Baltimore's city limits.  Nicolai is barely maintaining the Brujah domain in Neil Baxter's "abscence".  However, clan Brujah has always been one of the most powerful clans in baltimore, and Nicolai intends to keep it that way.
