Night Club - Immortal

Located downtown it is the newest night club to open in La Jara. It boasts a state of the art [1]dance room but is more than that. It also has an [2]entertainment area with a small stage to showcase local bands and singers. This area is generally a little quieter than the dance room though music of one form or another is always playing. It is mostly for cooling off after dancing and having conversations more easily. Just off the entertainment area is also a [3]barroom for those who enjoy such atmospheres better.

There is also the [4]VIP room where only special people are allowed. This is where potential Dolls are allowed and the Vampires mostly hang out. Only those who have permission from the coven leaders are allowed in here. It is louder than the entertainment room because it is another dance room but it is kept at a level where conversations are still possible. The final room of the club is only for Vampires and trusted Dolls. It is a small [5]private room where Vampires and Dolls can go to just sit and have a quiet conversation away from the bustle of the rest of the club.

The best part about the club is it is a Vampire and dark themed club. So if someone happens to catch a glimpse of fangs or even gets bitten it poses no danger to the real Vampires who frequent it. The mortals often sport fake fangs and bite each other pretending to be Vampires and this is even encouraged among the Dolls who may wish to do it. They even sell high quality fake fangs at Immortal; the convincing kind not the children's kind. It is all part of the cover that was built for her kind to flourish here. It was asked that the real Vampires keep their biting to the VIP or private areas just to be safe.

Rancho Sangre Apartments

The pool area of the apartments.

Basement

The place you do not want to be. Unlike the pleasant, homey basement in Vermont this one has four small cells and an old-fashioned torture chamber. It is where Dolls and Vampires are sent when they have displeased either of the coven leaders; if they are lucky enough to be allowed to live. Most who end up there wish they had decided to kill them first.

Ground Floor

Much of the ground floor is taken up by recreational areas along with the manager's office. There is a comfortable den with a nice fireplace and several plush chairs and couches for quiet conversation. The den also has a small, self-serve bar. There is a large library, a large workout facility, a television and gamer den with all kinds of fun electronic diversions, and a ballroom/stage where Sethos and the other artistic residents put on shows. Outside there is a large pool with a nice lounging area for the Dolls along with a BBQ area. There is also a large hot tub.

Second Floor

Rooms. Studio, 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom. (2 bedrooms are mostly saved for Dolls who won't mind sharing an apartment.)

Third Floor

Rooms. Studio, 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom.

Town of La Jara

La Jara is a medium-sized town in Southern California. It is nestled against some beautiful rolling hills. It has a long stretch of pristine beach called [6]Blanca Shores where the surfing is amazing. While not a huge city it boasts a good population and is a peaceful, popular tourist spot. They often come up with festivals to draw people to their town. They have a large park not far from the condos the Vampires and Dolls live in. There is a lovely [7]fountain with a bunch of nice trees and walkways along with a peaceful [8] lake filled with beautiful koi fish. The night life is is something most people in town are involved in in some way or another. There are several clubs already but everyone is looking forward to the opening of the newest - Immortal.

Coven Laws

These are the laws particular to this coven. Should it enter in conflict with the Vampire Laws at one point or another, the Vampire Law prevails. The coven leaders have the responsibility to enforce both Vampire Laws and Coven Laws.

A Vampire may claim up to two dolls. However the claiming of a doll is optional and the Doll must agree. A doll should be claimed with a good reason and not simply to hoard a supply of blood.

A Vampire is responsible for the health of its doll(s). The Coven takes care of the Dolls but when one is claimed it falls more to the Vampire to take care of it rather than the Coven. They should be given an allowance so they are able to keep themselves fed, clothed and healthy.

No Vampire may use another Vampire's claimed doll without permission of the owner. Permission should be asked, always. Should it be proven that this is the result of a misleading doll, the offended Vampire will have the power to punish his doll as he sees fit. Should it be the Vampire's fault, the punishment is exile from the Coven and its territory. Should the vampire by seen within the limit of the California Coven, it is a duty of the Vampire to kill the exile and report to one of the coven leaders and be pardoned.

Dolls are not to be abused. The Dolls are friends and family just as much as Vampires are and any abuse of them will not be tolerated. They are to be respected for giving their blood to sustain the Vampires. If a Doll is abused they are to report it to a coven leader.

Doll Rights

Any claimed Doll or one Lars deems as trustworthy must live at the apartments. A claimed Doll does not necessarily have to live with their Vampire but they must move to the apartment complex.

Any Doll, whether claimed or trustworthy, will be provided for. All Dolls will be given an allowance to buy food, clothing, and anything else they wish. If they want something specific that is beyond their means they can simply ask their Vampire if they are claimed or even a Vampire friend if they will get it for them. Of course it is up to the Vampire whether to grant their wish or not. Sparrow is often happy to grant gifts. What is the point in having so much money if she cannot spoil her family and friends?

Dolls are allowed to continue with their lives. They are allowed to continue working if they so choose even though it is not necessary. If they do work however they may not be given as much or any allowance since they are providing for themselves. They can keep contact with family and friends as well though inviting them over to visit is not recommended. If they insist on seeing where a Doll lives then a coven leader is to be warned so one of them can be present at the apartments in case something happens and also so she can let everyone know to be on their best behavior.

Dolls are just as responsible for the safety of the Coven as the Vampires. They must work to keep the Vampire's secrets just as much as their Vampire friends. Accidents can be rectified by speaking with a coven leader immediately but any who willfully endanger the Coven will be punished severely, if not outright killed.

NPC

Ulga Koslov

Ulga has spent many years traveling from Covan to Coven in Europe offering her telepathic services to the leaders. Upon hearing that California was in need of a vampire with the dark gift she could provide she worked her way to the States and found her way to the location of the West Coast Coven. Seeing that her abilities were greatly needed, Ulga has decided to make California her home.

Ray Parsell

Ray has been with the coven since he was 20 years old. Upon hearing that a club was opening up he jumped at the chance to bartend, as it's what he had gone to college for. While he prefers woman sexually, he is more then willing to let male vampires feed on him, as he understands that they need to eat too. In a drunken fit of humor Ray went out one night and got the words "Hers" and "His" tattooed on his wrist, thinking it would be funny to have designated feeding zones on his body for the vampires. Ray recently came up with a code drink at the bar that vampires could order that has blood in it. That way they can stave their appetite if they aren't ready to leave the club yet. Bloody Mary...Extra Bloody.
