AmosNotes:Viral Vampire Video

Executive summary of Plot:Viral_Vampire_Video

IC events 2025-11-29 Gaunt shares video with Court officers. Posted locally, faces unidentifiable. 2025-12-05 Court investigates Holland Alley. Unmarked black vans abducting unknown targets. Surveillance drone. Hospitals have no reports of blood loss or bite wounds. Morgue receives hunter killed at railyard. Court interrogates Marcus Avery. He admits the video was staged and describes the journal, but is killed before handing it over. Gunfire overheard west of campus. Unnatural howl overheard near railyard. Journal describes long-haired biker vampire, suspected of killing unnamed hunter at railyard. 2025-12-12 Black vans, drones, sniper believed to be connected, possibly Anubis Group (multiple shell companies, ties to Prospect and Los Angeles). Sniper did not attempt to retrieve journal. Anubis Group may be a front or rival of Order of St. Michael. Vegard's orders: do not draw attention, quietly identify root causes and eliminate issues. 2026-01-02 Order of St. Michael seeks Christian relics lost during or after World War I. Current target is "Angel's Blood", aka Sanguis Angelorum, whatever that is. West Horizon Realty LLC (front company, presumbly for the Order) has been buying up old churches. Augur_1837 traced to Paladin Games. 2026-01-09 Morgue security guard unnaturally unconscious, rose petals nearby (to frame someone, presumably Gaunt). Court interrogates Marcus's spirit. He sensed the church warding, and talked to someone else about an occult investigation group meeting at a game shop near UC Prospect. Second body dropped off, killed by claw attacks. Court removes body to be investigated elsewhere. 2026-01-15 Court interrogates Bill's spirit. He was killed by an unnatural creature (humanoid, claws, bone plating, no pain reaction when shot by police; likely connected to railyard and Echo Bridge events, and black vans; possibly another attempt to frame Gaunt). He may have been killed just for happening to be there. Court investigates Pilot Travel Center. Blood trail leads to large steel culvert beneath road.
