Although the Gangrel and Tremere clans have had a difficult relationship for most of their history, Jack Tanner was an exception to that rule. While he was aware of the ancient grudges that set the two clans apart Jack had always been of the opinion that such things had little relevance to the...

Tremere. In the past whenever Alistair had asked Jack about his people's use of magic, and of blood magic in particular, the Gangrel's answer had always been that he knew nothing of magic and left such things to the Tremere. Which as far as Alistair could tell was some sort of guild with a...

The first thing that Alastair noticed as he walked through the tower's hallways were the bodies. Dead mages and Templars lay strewn across the hallway, some of them having been torn limb from limb, others showing signs of being burnt or frozen with magic. Dried blood caked the floor, and the...

Alistair did not like Jack. When he was first told by Duncan that one of their new recruits was an undead, blood drinking, maybe abomination Alistair knew that the next few years were going to be a gigantic headache. And it turns out that he was right, though in a different way than he had...

A few moments after Jack tore the crossbow bolt out of Leliana's heart, she opened her eyes and picked herself off the ground. "By the Maker what just . . ." she started to say before she froze in place her eyes widening. "Easy there, you've been through a lot." Jack said. "But before we do...

Cassandra Pentaghast hated Orlais. The nobility of Orlais was depraved. They schemed and murdered one another and treated it like a game. They viewed anyone who wasn’t them with contempt and treated their lower classes like livestock. And worst of all was how they used the Chantry as another...

Sure, but keep in mind that the nobility in Southern Thedas has other issues that worry them far more than this. Compared to the Blight and certain things going on in Orlais Jack killing an abomination and a foreign woman who may or may not have been mind controlled are not high on their list of...

This wasn’t Jack’s first frenzy, but it was easily his worst. Not just in terms of casualties, though that was a concern, but the most awful part of this was the cat ears. Finished screaming, Jack knelt down on the floor and put his head in his hands. If it was just something like a lizard...

Earlier that night Leliana knew that this was the Maker’s will. Though Jack wasn’t what she expected from a Grey Warden, much less someone who the Maker had chosen to defeat the evil of the blight, she knew it was her destiny to assist the Warden. Even if she did not understand the Maker’s...

You are entirely correct with this point. This case is special as, (spoilers for next chapter), This isn't true. Those guards were alive but under the control of the desire demon possessing the boy. The woman, Isolde, while not enthralled still cared for her son and tried to get between him...

If Jack had to describe how the trip to Redcliffe went, he would have to say it was tense. Leliana was pretty obviously struggling with the idea of Jack being a vampire and Alistair wasn’t much better. Jack thought a part of the reason for this was that the local culture didn’t have any legends...

Though there was some debate, Alistair did allow Leliana to join their party. Of course, he did ask questions as to her skills, general sanity, and why she and Jack were covered in blood. And though the jury was still out as to Leliana’s sanity, Jack and Leliana were still able to answer the...

Jack’s entry into Lothering hadn’t been especially welcoming. Peasants had cowered in fear and ran for safety as soon as Jack and his companions set foot in the streets of their village. This was not ideal for a group trying to be inconspicuous, but also not surprising when one of them was...

Prince Roy Vannier considered himself to be a wise and enlightened ruler, and thus did not kill someone simply for being the bearer of bad news. Even if that person was the worthless excuse of a Kindred known as Jack “The Rat” Tanner. “Jack. As you were the only one at site of the event to...

He's going to be quite reluctant to tell the myth of Caine to any non-vampire. Just because his companions know he's a vampire doesn't mean he wants to tell them secrets he doesn't have to. It's not. Animal ghouls have a long history in VTM. Gangrel, Nosferatu and Tzimisce are especially fond...

The human capacity for mass suicide never ceased to amaze Jack. Take a bunch of humans, give them a bit of alcohol and some blunt objects, and suddenly they think they can take on anything. Case in point, these idiots. “Greetings travelers!” Said a weaselly man as Jack and his companions...

For the most part, Jack Tanner preferred to work alone. Sometimes that was impossible, but often enough you could get a job done without relying on others. This was not one of those times. “Goddamn it Alistair, shut up!” Relying on others always came with problems. Namely that everyone has...

Jack is currently on humanity level 4. He is not pointlessly cruel, but he is certainly not a good person. It's not so much that news is fast as that Flemeth is fast. She can turn into a giant magical dragon. She can move really quickly when she wants to. Oh yes. The Lasombra are all about the...

Awareness returned to Jack as the wooden shaft was torn out of his heart. As he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Flemeth looking down at him like something she scraped off her shoe. “You see Warden?” She said to Alistair who was watching with a shocked expression. “I told you he...

The king’s camp was full of activity as Jack walked through it. Soldiers went frantically about their duties, chantry mothers gave prayers, and defenses were prepared. It looked like the battle would be starting soon. Jack briefly wondered how long he’d been out for, but quickly dismissed the...
