Bernard

Bernard Antinori and his brothers first came to Florida from New Jersey in 1936, with the intent of putting the screws to the Trafficante mob setting up shop in Tampa. What they found instead was a wide open market of their own in the Oldest City. Then they found a minor obstruction in the way of Nathaniel Torrington, the business mogul who - apparently - had a hand in local crime. A deal was struck, Bernard went to work for Torrington, and his brothers were allowed to take over and grow the shadier side of the Ventrue's business arrangements.
Eventually, Bernard was allowed to see behind the curtain of the Masquerade, and he was made a Ghoul in 1947, serving Torrington with distinction in the decades since. In 2001, when the elder Ventrue abandoned his post and Don Celio Pena moved into his position, Bernard offered his services, as much to keep himself in the blood as to maintain an overview of his former master's domains. Unfortunately for Bernard, at the time, Don Celio put the man in charge of the Alcazar, overseeing the operations of the museum, shops, and working as an unofficial Elysium Keeper - acting as General Manager for both the Alcazar and the Onyx Room beneath it.
In the intervening years, that position has grown to be somewhat permanent - a matter of pride for Bernard, who relishes in the modicum of respect it affords him, from those who would not willingly give it otherwise. When Don Celio was executed by the Nosferatu calling himself "the Master", Bernard was forced to give fealty to the new "Prince", in the form of a blood bond. Thus far, Bernard has been allowed to maintain his position overseeing his charge; and he is pleased that he still has a steady source of Vitae; but he rankles at perceived shift of position (being made to serve a disgusting Nosferatu, rather than a noble Ventrue).
