Joseph Smith (no relation) is a former military medic in Vietnam, former mercenary gun-runner- turned community outreach organizer and now a counselor and community outreach organzier for The Bright Group. For a number of years, Joe was the confidant, servant, and ghoul of the Salubri Dasha Bright. When she met her final death at the hands of the Second Inquisition, Joe allied himself with the Brujah River Daye - a secret ally of the Salubri. Dasha had been grooming Joe for the Embrace, and so he is quite knowledgeable about Kindred society and mythology. He and River both are searching for another Salubri to help guide them on their decidedly spiritual journey.

Joe is well known in both the business sect and the homeless populations of San Augustin, and he has minor contacts all throughout the city. He still maintains his late Master's Haven at the Old Theater, though he and the rest of the Bright Group have relocated to Hope Tower. He is a crusader for the organization, overseeing the records and finances personally. Decades of service to a similarly driven Kindred have left him with pretty severe insomnia; and astute characters can almost always notice how tired he is.


Joe speaks English, German, and Italian.
