Arthur Crane
Artorius Cron was already an accomplished Hedge-Mage, and a man of advanced age when he first encountered the Tremere, and he eagerly leapt at the idea of staving off the aging process and exploring new forms of magic. He was recruited into the Chantry at Cardiff, Wales in 1893, by the ghoul Shaye and her Master Peregrin. Following Shaye's example, Artorius dedicated himself to his studies and the service of his Kindred Masters, and like Shaye, he was often passed over because of his usefulness as a ghoul.
In 1996, when Shaye Falcon was moved to the Americas, she chose a handful of ghouls to accompany her - mostly those she felt were languishing in their service as she had, and who might better advance under her own care. Twenty years, she promised: "Serve me well for two decades, and I will personally petition for your embrace." Though the Pyramid has since been abolished, and his Mistress freed herself from the Clan hierarchy, the promise stands, and Artorius - now Arthur Crane - eagerly awaits the opportunity to earn his immortality in just a few short years.
