TORRINGTON PLAZA

Situated right beside the Cathedral Basilica de San Augustin on the Plaza de Constitucion, Torrington Plaza is named for the former Ventrue Primogen, Nathaniel Torrington - second only to Henry Flagler himself in terms of wealthy investors who shaped the city.

When Torrington followed the other Elders east, he left his business holdings - and the clan in the hands of the late Don Celio Pena de Oviedo, the last Prince of San Augustin.

With the demise of Don Celio, the mortal business of Torrington Enterprises has fallen into the hands of the CEO, Monday Aysel - the late Prince's ghoul.

Aysel works closely with Cassidy Ferrer, the last remaining Ventrue in San Augustin, hoping to earn an embrace, and keeping her in the blood until she does so.

Nate's is a small, private bar on the 23rd floor that once catered solely to Camarilla Kindred and their guests, but has recently opened its doors to more... (ahem)... pedestrian clientele. The staff at Nate's are welcoming to any Kindred who uphold even a modicum of decorum, and ghouls are willing to trade in vitae in exchange for services.

Supporting Cast: Traders playing the markets on the day-side of the world, custodians, an office manager looking at porn or pics of the new boss.

Resonance(s): Depends on the markets: make an Intelligence + Finance test (Difficulty 4) to pick a resonance or roll: 1-3: Melancholy, 4-7: Phlegmatic, 8-0: Sanguine.

Other Systems: Different floors of the Tower require different tactics. Open plan offices increase the difficulty of stealth-based hunting rolls by 1, while the many cubicle farms reduce the difficulty of such rolls by 1.
