Know Your Kindred – Ankla Hotep

Name: Ankla Hotep
Clan:  Ravnos
Generation:  5th
Embrace:  1727 BC

Ankla has been locked away in torpor for the past 60 or so years.  Even with his amazing powers, he was not able to avoid the explosion aboard the R.M.S. Lusitania that injured his body and threw him into torpor.  The Nazis managed to obtain Ankla’s body and they brought him to Berlin for use in medical experiments.

The Setite Nefertiti discovered Ankla in Berlin.  Back in her mortal teenage years, Nefertiti and Ankla were lovers, until then she discovered the truth – Ankla was really a vampire and he had been using Nefertiti for her body and her wealth.  Nefertiti was incredibly hurt to learn this, but by then Ankla was long gone.  Even after she was taken in by Set, Nefertiti never forgot the shame Ankla brought upon her.

So while Ankla laid in torpor, Nefertiti manipulated his mind to forget who he really was and to believe he was Caine.  She had a special amulet made for him that increases his powers even more.   Nefertiti hopes to use the newly brainwashed Ankla as her servant and destroy both the Camarilla and Sabbat for the glory of Set.

Ankla is very powerful.  And with the help of the amulet his Chimerstry powers increase to the level of an Antediluvian.  While using his Chimerstry he is for all intents and purposes Caine and can alter reality around him within a five-mile radius.

Ankla is a large dark skinned man with wide shoulders who looks generally attractive, in a roguish way.  He wears colorful clothes and smiles frequently.  He loves to tell stories about the amazing things he has seen in his world travels.
