Now that I've had some time to look carefully at this set pictures and
flavour text, I've found some references on them to a brujah prince called
Tara (Flurry of action, scattershot) and another brujah called jack
something. As it's clear that no brujah prince has been printed in this set,
anybody knows who this prince is?
thanks in advance

San Diego. Not San Fransisco. My bad.
In 1944 when the Anarch Revolt began Tara came from Texas to assist
in San Diego with her 13 Brujah fighters.
Los Angeles belongs (as much as it can belong to someone) to Jeremy
MacNeil, father of the revolt.

She appeared in Los Angeles by Night, as the other poster noted, but Tara
has always been associated with San Francisco. LA is Jeremy MacNeil's
turf.
Hopefully we'll get Tara in an upcoming set. I'd expect a basic version
with no title, advanced as an Anarch Baron and merged as Prince of San
Francisco.
Until then, I suggest you proxy her with your unused copies of Tara, the
Hollow One (Mage).

She appears and dies as the Camarilla prince of Los Angeles in the
Gehenna novel from ww. Her childe (i think) was left to take care of
San Diego and Jeremy MacNeil is dead at this point.

Tara, the Brujah Prince of San Diego. In the Gehenna novel, she goes
to L.A. to help in the war against the Anarchs and Thin-Bloods. She is
one of those few "do it yourself" Princes hehe... She gets her hands
dirty, kills a lot of Anarchs, has most of her primogen destroyed,
escapes from Anarch ambushes and manages to resist quite some time
before the lame Withering hits her and she is gunned down by Anarchs.
Definately deserves a card in future expansions! :)
He's the former Prince of San Diego, now current Prince of LA. She
was sent to LA by the Camarilla after the old Prince of LA was
assinated to get rid of the Anarchs trying to take the city back over.
I was surprised to not see her included in the set, as well as
Hardestadt, Jenna Cross, Okulos, the Nos Archon Federico, and a few
other Gehenna related characters.
*Spoiler*
*Spoiler**Spoiler**Spoiler**Spoiler* Tara was killed by Jenna Cross's
gang in a shoot out on the roof of a skyscrapper in downtown LA. Tara
went there to meet with a Kindred of the East, named 4 Winds Conspire,
to discuss uniting to defeat the Anarchs, but 4 Winds betrayed Tara
and allowed Jenna's gang to trap her on the roof. They shot her down
with their rifles, and since the Withering had taken it's effect over
Tara, she was unable to outrun them. Bullets riddled her face, torso
and pelvis until the momentum of the shots pushed her body off the
edge of the building, where she landed flat on the sidewalk below.

Quick geography lesson and rant:
Northern California = San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose, Sacramento
Southern California = Los Angeles, San Diego, Hollywood, Santa Barbara
Ne'er the twain shall freak. And there's always that vast wasteland
called the Central Valley too. ;)
I don't really know the background, but I have always been rather
surprised that San Francisco isn't terribly well represented in the
VtM materials that I have seen. I'm sure there's more to it than meets
the eye, but we have a ton of hardcore gamers up here doing the LARP
thing every weekend. How significant is San Francisco By Night (2002)
for Kindred of the East?

The show Kindred: the Embraced was based in San Francisco.
Many of the earlier novels and short stories (not just V:tM based) were
also based in San Fran, such as "The Beast Within", "Dark Destiny",
"Prince of the City", and many more.
Not sure about the actual V:tM reference material though. I don't think
there's a lot.
Detroit has also been sadly neglected by White Wolf, except for a few
short mentions. I always wanted to see a Detroit by Night sourcebook,
featuring the Sabbat. It's already the perfect Sabbat city, without any
embellishing.
Cheers,
WES

Well, we need someone for new Ventrue IC in one of the next expansions, don´t we? :)

Yeah Detroit would have been cool.
More Black Dog game books would have been cool.
It was always kinda sad that the only real sabbat guide
book was Montreal by Night, as Montreal was unusual
in several respects.

There was Mexico City by Night...

Detroit was featured, IIRC, in Predator and Prey: Vampire.

Hmm... not familiar with that one. Is that a new one?

The Predator & Prey: Noun series consisted of 6 books and focused on Hunters
and their prey in some smallish city in Michigan. I forget the name of the
city and whether it was real or imagined for the novels.
IIRC, in the one LSJ is referring to, some Campires get sent to Detroit on
some sort of mission that gets them involved with the Sabbat and with a
Sabbat infiltrator to the Cam. Another book had a decent Pentex subplot with
a bunch of Garou.
The series wasn't one of WW's best, but it was ok. Some of the Hunter
characters were pretty interesting.
The last bunch of Dark Ages Clan Novels (Brujah, Toreador, Gangrel, Tremere)
have been really good, IMO, as was the Gehenna novel.
The Gehenna novel stands alone and gives good background to a lot of the
cards in the Gehenna set.

Detroit is just controled by the nosferatu, and like to keep things in house
and quiet...beast kind of quiet.
