1. First Day At Falner
You have just arrived at Falner Estate, a sprawling, beautiful, 400-hectare co-located space between Britain, Germany, and the Philippines, and the main base of Netsach. The flora and fauna in the area gives both a sense of familiarity as it looks at first glance like things you’ll find on Earth, and a weird sense of otherworldliness. Given the size of the place, the Estate is less of a compound and more like a town unto itself. The older buildings within the estate are gothic in their construction, and clear throwbacks to 19th Century Europe. The newer facilities, however, sport cutting edge contemporary designs that were clearly inspired by Fourth World architecture and technology.

If you want a better idea on what can be found on the estate, you can refer to this link.


2. A Day On The Job
You are pushing papers at Methuselah, doing research at the Arcanum, or going out on patrol -- whatever it is that you're doing, it's just another day for you as a Hunter of the Vigil.


3. Let's Head Down to Haven
Find yourself itching for a night out on the town? Why not head over to Haven, the classy nightclub that looks like a large, monolithic black building with no visible windows from the outside and the name of the club emblazoned in bold, white letters on one side.

Haven is located in Makati City, and is open to the public (especially the local supernatural community), but you might want to prepare yourself to wait in line for a very, very long time – unless you’re a Hunter, of course.

Falner’s Maenad Division holds office on top of Haven, as does Ordo Daywalker. Some of Haven’s staff also live above the night club.


4. The Awakening

"Hi everyone! Don't mind me, I'm just gonna watch while I get used to stuff around here."

He leaves polite enough room for the general rush of greetings before taking the seat that the Inquisitor assigned to him.

Class is a quick affair. Kaz hasn't been doing this very long, but he engages his students on the topic at hand. He assigns reading to them at the end of class and when everyone is gone, he breathes a sigh.

"Whew. I really need to get used to this."

The vampire simply sits through the class and listens in on the entire lecture, then getting back to the Inquisitor once it's over.

"They seemed interested enough. How long've you been teaching?"

He's actually teaching Ethics and The Code

[ktotheatothez]

"Oh, not too long." he replies, just a little wibbly. "They're good kids."

He chuckles and shuts off the workstation, causing all the holograms of the cases they'd been discussing to vanish.

"So, now that class is done, how would you like a tour of the campus first? I don't think you'll be in my class, seeing as I teach freshmen."

"I've just been dying to be shown around. Whoops, vampire pun!"

One can almost imagine crickets sounding off after that line.

"Err, how does it work with Kindred initiates anyway?"
